See other comments: all these rewrites are not using the GPL but rather permissive licenses like MIT. Bye-bye FOSS (in those ecosystems).

They've also been killing motorcyclists in Canada, for the same reason.

Most old FOSS is written and maintained in programming languages that Kids these days™ don't think are cool (and were probably never taught about in school either).

Hardware used to come with an extensive manual. Hardware these days is a vendor-locked black-box with built-in obsolescence that might get you in court if you open it.

Kids were more curious and spent more time outside, Kids these days™ spend most of their time under the light of screens, inside their safe spaces and can't even tie their shoelaces.

The blog part: create an .onion or .i2p site. Or create a site elsewhere but always do any related tasks through Tor at the very least (including account creation and email usage).
Not so sure about the mailing list part.

The fact that the founder commented in approval is gold.

I really don’t believe the headline.

The The company had a strong quarter thanks in large part to AI. part is what makes it sound strange to me, sounds like shareholder egostrking.

That said all they need to do is mandate use of AI during development like my company's done and they can boast this kind of bullshit easily.

Legacy languages like C, COBOL, Fortran, and Assembly still have their place, but they no longer take center stage.

"Legacy" languages?

2nd: C++ 4th: C

Right...

OF course they had to do it in reverse: it's not a feature, it's a bug.

If you want realistic humanoids look at the Japanese sex industry.

This article is all "China bad" while neglecting to realize Amazon is aiming at replacing workers with humanoid robots too.

Hypocrites.

There's an XKCD for that, of course.

Answer to self:

I usually check my emails while on my autopilot commute to work

When an email is forwarded, the position of the original email in the DOM usually changes, allowing for CSS rules to be selectively applied only when an email has been forwarded.

This is a screenshot from an NPR article discussing the rising use of ad blockers. The page is 12 megabytes in size in a stock web browser. The same article with basic ad blocking turned on is 1 megabyte.

You had one job...

I was tricked by a phone-phisher pretending to be from my bank, and he convinced me to hand over my credit-card number, then did $8,000+ worth of fraud with it before I figured out what happened.

Jack London once said, "You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club". When it comes to game development, the SDL project may well be such a club. How is it made, though?

What bugs does SDL have? And what Sam Lantinga says about it?

Is MSVC worth it? (programming.dev)

I currently maintain a legacy C+ app that runs on x86/x86_64/armhf linux, all 4 android archs and x86/x86_64 windows.

The linux compilation phase takes 1m, whereas on windows (using MinGW) it takes 10m. It's not the end of the world, but would the MS compiler be faster? Better?

Not new, but a rabbit hole nonetheless.

Is XMPP dead? (programming.dev)

With ejabebr's latest release in april, XMPP Provides listing tens of them and snikket becoming a thing, i'd say no.

Yet every now and then someone on the fediverse comes and proclaims it's dead.
