As long as management will be done by people, it will happen. It either should be done by computer/AI/whatever completely, or it should be controlled by purely emotionless and unbiased entities.

It's not scalable because it's a resource hog. Other languages JIT require much less. I think that's the biggest obstacle to its wider adoption.

This is precisely what we are trying to do at Rizin[1][2]. Though the primary goal of the tool/framework is static analysis. All that portability across OSes, their versions, platforms and architectures, etc is definitely hard. If anyo

We (Rizin and Cutter) usually participate in GSoC, so if we are accepted next year as an organization, you could apply. See our previous programs[1][2][3]. [1] http://rizin.re/gsoc/2023/ [2] https://riz

What's worse, fast forward N years into the future until the next pandemic, and all lessons will be dutifully forgotten, triggering exactly the same sluggish and misjudged response.

I wish there was more funding also to healthcare FOSS applications - both provider and user level ones. Even most DICOM viewer programs struggle to support all format quirks and many are outdated or abandoned.

RAR support is incomplete[1] in libarchive. I wish Microsoft would also help the library to improve the support, now they use it. [1] https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/issues/1426

If they really use libarchive, ARJ isn't supported by the library [1]. [1] https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/issues/1468

True. But from my personal and peer experience, the majority of companies/teams have meetingitis. There is a nice idea to put a price tag on every meeting by multiplying hourly salary of every participant by the count of participants p
