I thought this was a forum for Linux discussion, not promotion of fascists
You left out the part where, instead of telling him to knock it off as soon as they learned about it and disciplining him internally as a student, the school contacted law enforcement and allowed him to continue doing it so they could prosecute him harder make an example out of him. You’d think if he was as big of a threat as you’re implying, they would stop what he was doing ASAP. And if you’re going to be pedantic about leaving out details, maybe tell the whole thing. Maybe it’s not “honest” enough if we haven’t posted the full text of a documentary in a comment. That’s clearly your call.
Worse than Bitcoin miners, AI seems to have the wholethroated support of capital (rather than a single faction), who see it as the next big form of automation
What did they realize that they open sourced their product a decade too late for anyone to actually revive it?
I wasn’t insulted by what you said and I’m not a man
This is insulting as fuck. I grew up as a boy with plenty of reactionary beliefs because patriarchy is a fucking prison. And as I got older and got called out for it, you know what I didn’t do? Become a fucking fascist. I wasn’t pushed towards fascism. I was already reactionary and fascism would have required less work of me. That’s not the same thing. And it lets people off the hook to suggest otherwise.
It’s worse. Her husband, who is filing the suit on behalf of her estate, once signed up for the free trial. It wasn’t even her who agreed to it.
I can’t imagine just opening a giant PR without having extensive contact and coordination with the maintainer. Almost any amount of incremental safe steps would be preferable to a giant PR, even with extensive communication. I once introduced fully strict typescript into a vanilla js codebase and it took dozens of small PRs to do so. It was made more complicated by the fact that it was a library, but still. The communication made the entire process smooth and let everyone be confident the changes were correct along the way. If I’d done it all at once without any coordination, it would have been faster for me, but at the cost of the maintainer’s sanity and time.
