They really are attempting to dilute the term "open source" until it loses all meaning. You can already see it with nearly every LLM license that claims to be open source but is nothing close to how that term is commonly understo

Aside from being a player, I have no affiliation with this game. I just wanted to bring it to peoples' attention because it's fun, free, and has an interesting backstory. (details below from memory, so don't consider this au

This is depressing, but of even more concern is the fact that this data (and other, perhaps more "important" data) is available to essentially anyone with enough money to pay for it. This obviously includes most governments. I&#

Curious to not see inheritance/estate taxes listed among the possible solutions here, but I guess that a "wealth tax" could indirectly address this by whittling away at large fortunes over time while people are still alive.

Just wanted to say thank you for doing this. I was just looking for some replacements for Simple Mobile Tools replacements the other day. I wish you the best and hope you get enough community financial support to continue the project indef

Really surprising stuff (to me). I'm coming from the prior that large amounts of protein ingestion in one sitting are "wasted" and do not contribute much above a certain moderate amount. This is obviously only a single stud

It's amazing how many cables there are routing through the Suez Canal, especially directly connecting Mumbai all the way through to Marseille. I wonder how well protected they are specifically in the Suez Canal. Presumably the whole a

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but it's my understanding that Meta (and most other big tech companies) have long been in the business of hiring a large number of recent social science Ph.D. graduates from top U.S. universities.

Neat project. I love it. I read the "legality" section of your README, and I hope that someone can provide some advice. It would be nice to know where the lines are so you didn't have to constantly be concerned about 2K&#x2

The majority of comments here are pedantic nitpicking about proper tool categorization, improper use of the term "periodic", etc. Why? This is someone's art project, it's pretty cool. Enjoy the thing if you like it! I

Nice article! And btw, thanks for all your work as a filter list maintainer. I know it's a lot to keep up with, and I appreciate it very much.

This bothered me as well. I opened an issue on the repo asking them to consider updating the license file to reflect these additional requirements. The wording they currently use suggests that this additional license requirement applies no

Well, for one, the addon you linked has not been updated for over 2 years. This doesn't speak to the substance of your question really, but ad-blocking is a whack-a-mole game. Resources need to be constantly updated to keep up with c

There's no word yet about whether there will be a release soon which includes these fixes. But there was some concern/suggestion here last week that the developer was not responsive to the proposed changes. That does not appear

Just a short write-up I did while looking into this topic. The first place I looked for a solution to this was using Hacker News search, but I could only find options involving 3rd-party programs or browser extensions. Hopefully this is o

I wonder how much damage printer manufacturers did to consumer trust in this space. Even among non-tech people, it's pretty common knowledge at this point that printers will do a variety of terrible things like completely lock down yo

Very interesting project. Nice work! I'm curious if you have copyright concerns since GPT-3 may presumably quote portions of the book back to you in some instances. I still don't know if that would be a problem, but I was just c

The license was added in a commit 18 hours ago. There was some concern about the lack of a license here, so hopefully this clears things up for those using the project.

You can also add OS notifications and browser notifications to the list of things consumers never asked for. I'm sure there is some utility for some people. But for the most part, it's just further attempts to increase "eng
