Softbank is a codesmell. If u have worked for a Softbank startup, you'd know. I don't use any Softbank backed services. The employees are in extreme stress. Nothing good can come out of that environment than money printing for the big dogs.
See, here is what I've observed. I don't expect to change your POVs. Nevertheless...
The issue started when Israel was ready to have recognition from Saudi Arabia on their statehood. This would make Hamas irrelevant. And puts Sunnis (Iran) lesser recognised. Meanwhile Shia's (Saudi) will become the defacto in the Muslim world and half of Muslim world would either tolerate or be OK with Israel. Hamas attack on Israel at Oct 7 stopped that. Hamas has been supported by Iran for a long time. So in the whole Gaza - Israel thing, Iran was backing Hamas. Then they proxied with them by providing assistance. Then they eventually directly got involved.
You need to understand, there was good period of peace between Israel & Palestine until Oct 7.
While I reject US toppling govts around the world, Iran's hand is not clean in this one. But also, US thought this would be as easy as Venezuela and killing Iran's leader will stop this. Interfering in other countries biz have consequences. And in this case, it's true for Iran & US.
They literally abandoned the development for their toy projects until v57 (?) Quantum release. People left Firefox to chrome cos pages like google meetup and other things were not working at all. What are you saying?
Nobody saw this coming. Trump's first term might have been crazy inside US, but outside... it's the least interfering US govt we've had in a while for the world. So as far as geopolitics is concerned, he is right.
Yeah. This is like clickbait titles. They hate something something for something something reason and won't tell cos it's probably something small.
They leave the comment making it look like the person made something huge. Only to find out that they didn't use the coaster while drinking his chilled beer.
And I don't care about this instance, I am not going to look it up. I have far more negative vibes about the OP in question than Lightshot.
Very bad dark pattern I've been seeing more and more these days.
Understandable. I usually only recognise AI assist cos someone in the comment section points it out. But the off putting tone of this was blatantly obvious. This is by far the most AI influenced article I have read yet.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to confirm. Not hating on AI slop or something. But I do genuinely feel if he/she/they tried to invest time in writing it, people would consume and enjoy it better.
Its hard to put my finger on it. But it lacks soul, it factor or whatever you want to call it. Feels empty in a way.
I mean, this is not the first AI assisted article am reading. But usually, it's to a negligible level. Maybe it's just me. :)
Something very odd about the tone of this article. Is it mostly AI written? There is a lot of references and info. But I am feeling far more disconnected with it.
For the record, I was genuinely trying to read it properly. But it is becoming unbearable by mid article.
This is an absolute valid concern. We either need strong governmental interventions to these models who don't comply with OSS.
Or accept that there definitely wont be open model businesses. Make them proprietary and accept the fact that even permissive licenses such as MIT, BSD Clause 2/3 wont't be followed by anyone while writing OSS.
Its not just left. Right had to face this too. As a moderate, it's hilarious sometimes that one side would do something and when the other side does something similar, they are all up in arms about it.
We should be allowed to discuss openly without being worried of losing job and humiliated.
Right now, I cannot discuss openly. Majority are silent. And loud ones are a minority.
Kevin hart losing Oscar hosting for a comment 12 some years ago. People who tried to cancel Eminem for his old songs and Rowan Atkinson's speech comes to mind on the top of my head.
Getting offended is a YOU problem. Not a me problem.
Until it's possible for us from both sides can talk openly, these will continue. Just like opposition political parties when one side is in more power, they will try and punish the other.
> Rust is explicitly a community project having been born out of a non-profit, and if you’re discounting corp-funded but community driven that’s definitely Rust. If not, please indicate the corp that’s driving Rust.
Non-profit doesn't mean community project. Rust foundation is a non-profit 501-c(6). Which is a non-profit category for trade unions and stuff. It's not a charity categorization. It's run by corporate members and works only for the members which are - surprise corporates. A community member like you or me doesn't have any say (Unless you have $325k per year to pay) - https://rustfoundation.org/get-involved/. This is the same case with Linux foundation as well. It's NOT a community project. The only difference is, Linus has more say cos trademark is on him.
PSF and Zig foundation are charity / commuinty projects cos they are non-profit 501 c(3). It's categorised as public charity or for the good of people. You and I can have more say in it. NOT THE CASE WITH RUST.
>Which language would you classify as not corp owned?
I would like to respectfully disagree with you there as well.
The above was the context. I was replying to this which opened the conversation.
Not to mention, end users and consumers don't get a say in the corp funded projects. Everything works as long as it aligns with the goals of the corp. Not otherwise.
They fund it cos they want to use it for their thing. Does not mean they own them. They are all community governed projects.
Rust, Julia, Typescript on the other hand are governed by Corps. They are not community projects.
Elixir is BDFL (good one) last I checked. Dont know if they became a company or foundation.
Zig is for all purposes a good example of community governed project. Itcs in production at Bun and TigerBeetle. But also, its not yet production ready (v1.0). So their current trend make sense.
But I could've been wrong with JS and C. Not sure about their governance now that I think about it.
