We are talking about Debian, a free software that cares a lot about the licensing of its packages. The licensing and authorship is an essential element of the project

Democracy is representation of the people, you can have a democratic system that uses something else than majority voting

We don’t know yet because that’s an unresolved matter. The question of ownership is currently undefined as far as I understand. It could be that after an actual legal decision the ownership doesn’t end up being one of those 2 cases, for wha

That might be your intuition but it’s not how the law works for code ownership. It’s very relevant for free software given the whole principle of free software is a copyright hack that protects a set of freedoms by relying on the copyright

From my layman understanding, the ownership of LLM generated code isn’t yet clarified. It could be that the person who prompted owns it, but it could also be nobody owns it, and we don’t yet have a legal ruling to rely upon, no?

Because you’re in a different position to negotiate if you know you have the support of the population? That’s my intuition at least

Bild doesn’t have one bit of respect for their readers, it’s no too surprising. What people are missing is that before GDPR the threat of sharing data with 3rd party wasn’t seen as serious by most of the population. GDPR establishes clear r

> The dark ages were anything but dark The period is only called dark age in English for what it’s worth, that should make it pretty obvious it’s not a universal understanding of that era

The destruction is the whole point. In a way we are in the shock therapy era of the US, experiencing what Russia went through post-USSR, which resulted in massive corruption, wealth inequality, and development of an authoritarian regime. De

It’s literally the playbook from project 2025. FWIW it’s not the beginning, that has been a process at play since day 1 of the 2nd trump admin Edit: actually since the 1st term as mentioned below

It’s not considered a secret, it’s just something people don’t feel comfortable entering in forms online. That feels a bit too personal, and is simple to enter wrong. A middleman makes that process a non issue. It’s also nice to be able to

The government would just not pay, similar to what trump tried with his rape verdict

That’s fair, good for the maintainer to consider his personal values with regards to projects he wants to spend his time on

From my personal experience PayPal is actually liked in Germany, people want PayPal for payment because they don’t want to give their bank details or don’t have a credit card. I’ve only ever seen people complain about the company online

How did you get N26 to check your visa? I’ve never seen that situation. They only ask for an address in Germany. I know so many people with n26 on work visa

Paypal is huge in Germany, it’s pretty much the standard online payment method.

As I said, just remove the LLMs Goldberg machines. That’s it. The rest can continue to evolve and change

I know those people. Lots of them are fantastic humans. That doesn’t change the fact the AI industry is extremely toxic

Every single day a new story that would have been a scandal in itself. There is absolutely no end to that administration level of greed and corruption.

The Snowden situation is more complicated to explain. For flock you just show a Benn Jordan video showcasing the camera recording kids and people are likely to understand the problem. It’s also visible, in the real world, whenever you go ar
