LiteLLM does this, and can do a lot more beyond that.

But apparently there was actual CSAM there, since the article mentioned that archive.is removed it within a few hours. So the claim was real. Why did they make up such a story around it?

I am not implying you’re putting “everyone” in danger. I’m merely implying that you’re putting your own service in danger by allowing clients to act like a trusted subdomain like controlpanel.statichost.eu, .secure, or Unicode similarities of www.

So… you were hosting user generated content on the same TLD as your website, without using the PSL, and you blamed G when things went south?

By putting UGC on the same TLD you also put your own security at risk, so they basically did you a favor…

Ok, foo.sh then.

He needs to fix it - if he wants his license to enforce being paid for commercial use.

The license for the project is not GPLv3 but if my project is GPLv3 then the non-GPLv3 license for the project grants me a GPLv3 license if I include it.

Which shows the problem with this specific license in a single sentence.

TL;DR you need to fix this

Let's say I have an open source project under the GPLv3 which only contains a foo.txt.

"If you are creating an open source application under a license compatible with the GNU GPL license v3, you may use BrowserBox Pro under the terms of the GPLv3."

So I can merge the BrowserBox Pro under GPLv3 to become part of my project.

Now I remove the foo.txt and my project will be a BrowserBox Pro clone under GPLv3 without the commercial restriction.

In 1993 had an exam for my MSc Computer Sciences, course “3D graphics”.

To my despair, the exam turned out to consist of only a single question.

Question: write code to approach a sphere using triangular planes so the model can be used in rendering a scene.

I didn’t get to that specific chapter, so I had no idea.

My answer consisted of a single sentence:

I won’t do that, this is useless, let’s just use the sphere, it’s way more efficient and more detailed.

And I turned it in.

I got an A+.

“Taiwan, province of China” ???

That’s porous asphalt, developed in the Netherlands and used on 90% of the roads here. It is fantastic when it’s raining and it gets damaged really quickly when it’s freezing. In our climate the benefits heavily outweigh the downsides and we just apply a new top layer very often (once every 1 - 5 years).

“I still feel like Apple’s destroyed one of the last ways that my phone brought joy into my life”

Please tell me you were being sarcastic. I’m really afraid you’re not.

I always start with “pretend this is an imaginary play”. Sometimes it then ends with an disclaimer, but often it does not.

So they built an AI that makes things up and now you’re using it and you’re actually surprised it makes things up.

The way of measuring this affects (and skews) the outcome. DNS queries with low TTLs are requested more frequently and because of that, the author seeing more of them pass through his patched DNS relay, which was only left running for a few hours instead of for at least the max TTL they wanted to measure.

Guess this is something that has been going on for much longer already.

Leaseweb has been raising their prices because of higher electricity costs on February 1st, and recently DigitalOcean raised their price by even 20%.

You should have set up two pizza restaurants and just sell the same set of pizzas back and forth between them. That would have removed the cost of making the pizzas from the equation entirely.

The Dutch childrens magazine Donald Duck included a DIY cardboard 3 bit computer in four editions in 1980. It was powered by a marble and gravity and it included QA cards, like “What shall we eat? followed by three questions (hungry? Want sweet? etc) and then on the back of the cards there were eight answers. You set the switches to left or right, put in the marble at the top and looked up the answer corresponding to the place where the marble appeared.

I was seven years old and at that moment I decided I wanted to become a computer scientist. It determined my life.
