Wow, a complete rowback. Interesting they'll even be giving refunds.

TBF the disdain for Mozilla is not a universal sentiment, but it's absurdly pervasive. There's the same nonsense on reddit at /r/linux.

I mean, I understand your scepticism given OpenAI. OpenAI was misleading from the start, even before they changed from non-profit to "capped" for profit. Hopefully being spawned from Mozilla gives this new outfit a better ethos.

Mozilla's mission is 'a better internet'. Democraticising AI fits right it. Mozilla gets slated for not innovating, and Mozilla gets slated for innovating. Mozilla gets slated when Google and Apple and Microsoft's antico

I think it's warranted to be sceptical. It does appear to specifically be encoders. Yet, presumably encoding is more patent encumbered than decoding.

Of course it's reasonable to use cat on one file. Why should it work for all 𝑛≥2 files, but suddenly fail at 𝑛=1? Despite the dismissive tone of the article you linked, if the overhead of one single process was remotely relevant, shell

By default, dash provides /bin/sh on Debian. But that doesn't prevent people targeting /bin/bash instead. I'll also note that BusyBox supports [[.

Portability isn't binary. The question is, is it portable to the systems you want to support?

Are you logged in? Twitter seems to be working normally (i.e. it refreshes) where I'm logged into the browser. But where I'm not, I get the error message everybody's seeing.

Prime Video isn't a monopoly, but Amazon clearly has Significant Market Power when it comes to retail. They're anti-competitively vertically bundling Prime Video along with retail delivery.

Perhaps, but JS tooling is waaaay better than it used to be. Vite and Turbopack are way easier to use than Webpack, and faster than the next best thing, Parcel. npm supports lockfiles. Yarn goes further in that you no longer need a million
