Interestingly enough, not really happening in my country. You’re sorta expected to get the mandatory reading books from a library in school… And later on in university, it’s a place to hang out and study together.
Maybe adults outside of academia don’t use them much (I don’t), but I think people generally see the value in them.
No thanks then
Most LLMs are literally "tell you whatever you want to hear " machines unfortunately. I’ve gotten high praise from ChatGPT for all my ideas until I go “but hang on, wouldn’t this factor stop it from being feasible” and then it agrees with me that my original idea was a bit shit lmao
Who said incel? You can also be a female volcel,
It does technically have a central repo, but not the “forge” tooling around it.
I do think I’m going to move my personal shit to self-hosted Forgejo too though. One project of mine is going to be closed source (don’t boo me, there’s literally no demand for “free” in that market, the target market generally isn’t interested in programming or hosting) and I don’t want the business logic side of it to magically end up in their AI models despite me refusing to allow them. Couldn’t care less about any of the other stuff, I’m not doing anything super high tech or special.
Considering he’s a Microsoft employee and Microsoft is leaning hard into the AI craze? His stock options are all dependent on this lol
The Github CEO didn’t even “make” the big business. He was appointed by Microsoft after they purchased it and their first pick for CEO of Github resigned after 2 years.
With Pop!_OS you should be in for a good huge update in about 2026 or so. They normally released every half year with Ubuntu, but they haven’t done a new release since the 22.04 LTS (Long Term Support) version because they’re working on their own desktop environment and it’s taking up most of the developer resources.
So hopefully in 2026 they’ll release 26.04 with the new COSMIC DE to replace 22.04 with Gnome (with their customizations, also called ‘COSMIC’ so it gets confusing lol). I think technically they’re working on a 24.04, but at this rate I think Ubuntu 26.04 will be out around the same time or even before COSMIC is fully ready.
So there’s a decent chance you’ll get a whole lot of improvements at once, which is cool
Isn’t it the same on Windows tbh?
The knowledgeable users on MacOS install Homebrew (or nix if being a hipster) and get most of their cool tools for that.
With Windows, the default assumption is that the user has less money than a MacOS user so all the useless shit on Microsoft Store is cheaper than MacOS, but it’s still money for software that shouldn’t be paid.
Class action criminal suits then.
Prosecute everyone who owns even a single share in the company and if the working class guy goes to jail, so does the wealthy guy, no exceptions. But by share of ownership so whoever owns most, gets the most jailtime.
Offshore shareholders can just get all their assets in the country seized.
Just stuff you voluntarily save if the crash data is in RAM only. RAM gets autowiped.
Hell, it could be that this is private information about the driver and the car’s probably gonna end up in a Copart auction after insurance is done with it, so in a way they’re protecting PII.
Before anyone’s gonna accuse me of Tesla fanboyism (I do make a lot of devil’s advocate style comments), I’ve driven exactly one Tesla in my life, decided it’s a piece of shit with a great powertrain and OK infotainment but absolutely lacking UX for drivers, and a ridiculously plain interior. I will never buy a Tesla unless it’s a used Tesla S or X with a newish battery for 10k because at that price it’d just be the cheapest way to get a luxury EV lol
The CEO in particular IMO, unless it’s financial (CFO) or tech (CTO, CIO).
However, it’s already the CEO’s job to take the heat in public so the board doesn’t have to.
Instead, hold everyone who holds a stake responsible, down to everyone with a 401k with 3 shares in the company for major violations.
See how quickly the shareholders vote to have better transparency.
I think it was the one where the driver was looking for his phone with his foot on the pedal and claims Autopilot should’ve overridden his manual override of Autopilot.
Plot twist: they’re 17 and covering their tracks
Car forums are still alive and well because they’re a great repository of knowledge. There are plenty of computing forums too still.
Worked for a company like that, but not everyone was happy. Investors were brought in and place went to shit. Sucks, but I got out just as it started getting worse.
The company doing the payroll software isn’t the company paying you though
Anyone else find it moderately funny and also sad how Michael Larabel didn’t update his profile photo for a loooong time so now it looks like he aged two decades at once?
Hope he’s not as depressed as he looks, Phoronix is a quality resource.
