This export ban follows Anthropic refusing to provide uninhibited use of AI to the US military, and the Pentagon subsequently listing them as a supply chain threat. That in turn led to Anthropic suing the government. This most recent development is obviously just a vindictive administration doing what it can to blackball Anthropic for not kowtowing to unrestricted military use like all of the other AI giants.
What about Mastodon or other federated platforms? If someone created a new Facebook, but it didn't have these corporate terms, it would still be social media.
When I helped a friend set up his LG C2, we plugged it into Ethernet just long enough to update its firmware, then promptly disconnected it, never to even set up WiFi.
For what it's worth, writing good PRs applies in more cases than just AI generated contributions. In my PR descriptions, I usually start by describing how things currently work, then a summary of what needs to change, and why. Then I go on to describe what exactly is changing with the PR. This high level summary serves to educate the reviewer, and acts as a historical record in the git log for the benefit of those who come after you.
From there, I include explicit steps for how to test, including manual testing, and unit test/E2E test commands. If it's something visual, I try to include at least a screenshot, or sometimes even a brief screen capture demonstrating the feature.
Really go out of your way to make the reviewer's life easier. One benefit of doing all of this is that in most cases, the reviewer won't need to reach out to ask simple questions. This also helps to enable more asynchronous workflows, or distributed teams in different time zones.
Your best bet might be one of the Pixel "a" series, which are Google's budget-oriented models. Stock vanilla Android with as little bloat as you can hope for.
I've greatly enjoyed my Pixel 9 Pro Fold and would recommend it, with the following advice: I am very careful with mine. It's rated fairly well for water resistance, but not well for dust ingress. It's imperative that you keep it clean (I use alcohol wipes and microfiber cloth daily) and well contained in sandy or dirty environments. That said, I've taken mine to the beach and on camping/canoeing trips, albeit in a soft waterproof enclosure which still lets me use the external screen.
When the flush of a newborn sun fell first on Eden's green and gold,
Our father Adam sat under the Tree and scratched with a stick in the mold;
And the first rude sketch that the world had seen was joy to his mighty heart,
Till the Devil whispered behind the leaves: "It's pretty, but is it Art?"
