Well, maybe that's what they think. But EU is coming with new security and AI regulations that will change things forever.

That's probably more due to one guy running the show in contrast to a slave driver / project lead with a team in 20 different countries who are barely aware of other team members existence?

I like this guy, he is very talented but also down to earth. He is like a more adorable version of notch, before he locked himself in his mansion and started saying questionable things. Hopefully he will stay that way when someone hands him

We had _just_ settled the emacs vs vi argument when this starts ... I guess debian/ Ubuntu folks will choose bash, osx people will continue using zsh and the openbsd users will keep using that vanilla sh because of the vintage feel. On

What if you use termux and backup from its storage?

I have seen an extreme number of fake blogs showing up on search engine front pages recently. A massive army of random generated blogs from many countries to sell you all kind of (real) products for their local markets. Maybe GPT-3 is to bl
