A rewrite in Rust may attract new contributors, thereby aiding maintenance in the coming years. Especially if you look very long term, as in where the young developers are, you'll see a significant reduction in the amount of people wit

But they can only change their context, not the model itself. Humans update their model whenever they receive new data (which they do continuously). A live-learning AI would be theoretically possible, but so far it hasn't been done (in

I would assume CPS in the context of drug addicts are not just worried about basic living conditions, but also about neglect by the parents. I would be worried about the child of an alcohol addict, let alone an opioid addict. But this is ju

Doesn't this issue get solved by reproducible builds? Using reproducible builds allows developers to publish apps on F-Droid using their own signing keys [1]. Those signing keys can then be verified by Google. In 2023 already, 2 out of
