Some corrections: - The EU is not a state, it's a governance body composed of representatives from individual member states. Every state is responsible for implementing their take on the directive. - "EU poor track record on foste

To work-around Apple's draconian NFC for payment rules, many providers aligned on a standard QR-code based solution for payments. I think the Wero service initiative took that even further by having banks work together to support the c

I mean specific APIs and targets are required to be written in Swift (e.g. widgets) + iOS/macOS dev tooling is hostile to any attempt at bringing in your own preferred language stack. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple's "

This is brilliant work and I love the Qt ecosystem. Can’t help but imagine the things we could’ve had if Apple wasn’t pushing the horror of Swift down everyone’s throat by blocking alternatives in so many tiny ways.

And the training data. A truly open source model also includes the training data.

Hey let’s not put the Rust fanatics in the same bucket as the LLM bros. One is a safe programming language, the other is an overgrown lorem ipsum text generator. We’re not the same :)

Oh dear, HL7, I may be suffering from a form of PTSD… my therapist has heard about this “standard” at length. But I think SBOMs are better structured. I also feel that if package managers refocus their efforts on that, the standard and its

Is this the Epstein smokescreen?

The lesson being learned is that Apple could’ve avoided all this trouble if they had used or produced standards for the connection between their components. The whole concept of a gatekeeper was created in response to Apple-likes being diff

It seems the UK will have to undertake their own procedure. Unless they rejoin before that (one can hope).

It’s fascinating the kind of cool features we can have when products are made to be useful, with their target user in mind. Go EU!

It’s like a poorly executed form of protectionism. I guess they’re doing the best they can, can’t expect people unfit for office to create good policy, right.

Once, I had a very frustrating slack chat with a fellow developer. We were discussing edge cases for a new feature and the experience from my perspective was that for each of my messages, I’d get a “in case of … how about …” style reply. Th

I think the problem is that the artist doesn't get anything with this approach. If you really want to use someone else's music/artworks/lyrics, just buy it.

I think with Swift 6 Apple really took it in a wrong direction. Even coding agents can’t wrap their mind around some of the “safety” features (not to mention the now bloated syntax). If anything, Swift would go down as a “good example why l

Depending on the source music, there are many aspects of this that normally require a license with a records company or some proxy. Especially the lyrics part. Be careful not to get into very expensive trouble. Just because the LLM can do i

It’s a trend and it’s slowing down not plummeting. And even if it is, there are already more of us than we know how to sustain. The problem at hand is not growth rate slowing down, it’s humans divided in tiny pockets of countries burning th

Indeed, that’s what I mean by raising awareness. It takes time to change such deeply rooted beliefs. I think if humans are to prosper and resolve planet-wide challenges like global warming, we need to be better at managing resources and we

Stop looking it country by country. Globally, the trend is that of an increasing population. And fast. Humans are reproducing at unsustainable level.

This is factually false :) and if you’re really worried, there are many options available to you to preserve what you will need or consider adoption - there are so many humans being born without a family after all.

I think it’s clear that both use cases are a must have during an emergency. Even more, rescue services and stranded people would need all the bandwidth and reception they can get, Waymos shouldn’t be online during such times at all.

lol, no. What’s wrong with people installing stuff like this in their browsers? Just a few years ago, this would be seen as malware. Also this entire post and not a single mention of privacy of what they do with things they learn about me..

Btw, apart from Discord, you really should stop using the other ones (X, Vercel, Cursor...). Do yourself and the planet a favour :)
