My point was precisely that no effort was needed to be usable, not that it was perfect. It's taking me longer to argue with you than making it. Again that was the point. We can endlessly make it slightly better... but then we forget wh

The process is the point, not the outcome. I have no doubt you had fun as I do "silly" things like that. Thanks for sharing.

What's interesting about it precisely that despite the equivalence (Turing machines and all that) the difficulty to do one thing is a language versus another is what make it prohibitively hard. If one is "just" translating so

Agreed, if a patch is offered after being suggested then some reaction should take place, even if to clarify that currently there is not enough resource to accept/reject it and thus it might be better to temporarily rely on their own f

There are more than 2 ways to do OSS vs proprietary. You can do OSS and refuse all commits or even any comments, e.g. https://codeberg.org/y20k/escapepod/src/branch/master/CONTRI... Using GPL or MIT

It's not even default to ON, it's default to ALL (or at least to a lot), even non co-pilot commits, that's what made people made. If it was at least correct maybe it would have gone unnoticed.

If you have a credit card with a "normal" ceiling you probably can rent enough on neocloud providers like HuggingFace or Mistral Forge. I'm not saying it's worth it but you don't need to buy a GPU yourself to be abl

This is such a weird argument, beside obvious #10 which will bite back with a vengeance, because... code can't be cheaper than free! Since at least the early 80s a LOT of very important code wasn't cheap, it was free. Both free of

You could use Chromium just for Google Meet. That's what I do. I have Chromium relatively up to date that I basically solely use when I need to. It can be Google Meet, or Teams, or whatever was purposely botched in order NOT to work wi

That's the beauty of containers, virtual machines like QEMU or compatibility layers like Wine/Proton. As long as your super esoteric software implements the interfaces those rely on, you are able to run everything else.

Random number from a Reddit thread isn't a great source but even then I agree with some of the comments, it might even be 99% nowadays. The question is what does it change? Are the contributions from those corporations irreversible or

Love the concluding note : it works, but not really. So LLM/GenAI crave. An entire article to show that it's nearly there, yet it's not, despite convoluted effort to make it just so on a very very niche example.

OSS/Linux is "our" software. It's made by us for us (or others if you don't contribute). Your software can be made by you, for you. It can be open source/free software if you want. Others can contribute to it,
