this article isn’t about rubygems the service and it repeatedly states so

that’s a lot of words to write “we did a hostile takeover”

Hey now, there’s a lot of Hello World, Mandelbrots and Ugly Tailwind Dashboards too :o)

It told me my PC can't run it and to get a Copilot enabled PC. I got a Mac instead. I sure hope Apple pays Microsoft for their great ad campaign.

We are engineers. Much like an artist could draw the rest of the owl, it’s not an unreasonable ask towards a field that each day seems to grow more accustomed to the learned helplessness.

It mostly seems like the author is ruining it for himself.

Check the date of the article. They used to be the shadow cabal before Lina put public pressure on them to go legal.

You say this because your native language broadly fits into ascii and you would sing a different tune if it didn’t.

No, this doesn’t work. Many of the affected sites have these but they’re ignored. We’re talking about git forges, arguably the most standardised tool in the industry, where instead of just fetching the repository every single history revisi

hmmm, I'll try. Think of these things like you think about using cli tools. If you ONLY had ffmpeg or imagemagick in isolation, there would be no benefit to using them on the command line. You are working with images and video after al

The devaluation happened through streaming services. Instead of spending dozens of dollars on subscriptions, BitTorrent and last.fm enables me to find what I like and spend the money on Bandcamp instead where it actually reaches the artist

It’s the year 21XX. Another HN story about python packaging being solved for good this time hits the front page. I try to use a python app, am impressed by its capability to generate 10 pages of red text and go back to cryosleep.

This would be nice, however we get both the boot AND the flood of information.

4. If I now go one step further and use a commercial DDoS service to make the get requests for me because this comparison is already a stretch, then why would the DDoS provider accessing the website on my behalf be in a different legal cate

Someone wants to add it enough to click the button that adds the site. Sometimes you need to REALLY want to add it because no category is applicable so you also click the button to add the category.

I'm a heavy commuter and have been for the last two decades and there are no recent developments worth talking about, take it for what you will.

There were a bunch of these during the netbook boom and they were grandparent-proof. Sadly, all of my favorites (Moblin/Meego, Joli OS and xpud) are long dead.

I am keeping a close eye on it for sure. The last time I tried it wasn't quite there yet and still had too many rough edges for my taste.

Their app needs Google Play Services. To install it on an Android device I'd want to use over my iPhone, I'd have to jump through a bunch of hoops and it would become a project with permanent upkeep. So I use an iPhone instead.

There is no other manufacturer that sells what I want. The alternative is worse (Google) or incompatible with the reality of my daily life (my banks app won't work on it). On the desktop side of things it's getting better, the Fra

They didn't "become" anything. They didn't "give away" anything. The torture prison and fascism isn't a bug, it's a feature. People voted for this. A large part of this community voted for it, probabl

As it turns out, the VC potential of Mandelbrot and HelloWorld.py are quite limited :o)

This point is so tired. I don’t understand how a thought forms in my neurons, eventually matures into a decision and how the wires in my head translate this into electrical pulses to my finger muscles to type this post so I guess I can’t ha

People defending this are wrong in an additional, more pathetic way: Even if you insist on “cheating” and using an LLM to communicate, you are using it badly . You manage to be obviously incompetent at using the tool you are evangelizing.

To use your Google analogy, it’s the equivalent of posting: > I googled and these are the results (…) and then copy pasting the first page of results.

Or I can buy an iPhone and Apple doesn’t break the law :)
