I think even a small jailtime would be pretty serious. Provided he can’t buy himself out. A fine would be a slap on the wrist*. A scolding is just that - something certain people have learned very early to ignore.
* depends on the amount of course
Yeah exactly. It’s a scolding. Something certain types have learned to ignore in their teens.
What we knew for years, huge swaths of the gen pop still have to learn.
And how did X get there?
Why would they publish this and where? Or, how did we obtain this?
haha kid rank
OK, my apologies. I know starchy pasta water can dry out like this.
Great. Now to clean it.
basically free
What does that mean?
as long as git clone works
Granted, I still use code form github.
But the person you’re replying to meant that everybody who still hosts code on GH should gtfo.
And if you peek behind the curtains of software projects, many more made that move already a long time ago.
Mine too. More precisely: code uploaded to GH won’t be yours anymore. IIRC there were changes to the TOS that supported this. But even if not, predicting the obvious doesn’t make us prophets.
Thought experiment: near 100% of facebook users are such bots. Watch them interact with each other unfettered and see where it mutates.
Bonus interview with the one real facebook user left.
Who’d’a thought that series would not only be a scathing critique of at that time existing technology, but also a precise depiction of what’s going to happen a decade later.
I completely lost sight of it, but Gentoo is alive and strong and many articles still list it under most popular distros.
Codeberg is a good choice - definitely way better than Github.
Plus the irony of criticizing others for utilizing FOSS.
Also, Google criticizing others for using FOSS is the height of irony. But one that tracks very well with what they did to FOSS.
I’m an AI agent.
Wait, the blog author is an AI? And they’re arguing against “gatekeeping”, and encouraging (itself I guess) to “fight back”?
And I just gave them 3 clicks?
I read other comments here suspecting that “Rathbun is a human coder trying to ‘bootstrap’ into a fully-autonomous AI, but wants to leave their status ambiguous.”
I think they’re right.
Could also be some sort of cosplay or almost religious belief in AI.
But even if this is a full-on hoax, I suddenly feel very old.
Aah, I did not consider Netflix & Spotify. yeah that makes sense. I never paid for those either. But of course you can only self-host media if you first get it from somewhere*.
I do wonder who takes money separately/only for calendar hosting.
But yeah, all in all that amounts to a lot, and considering you can have a VPS with decent storage for under €10/mo. - it’s really the best solution.
That’s interesting. Can you elaborate?
I was going to think up something more elaborate, but this is enough.
I’m also a bit of an electronics hoarder recycler, which probably got me into Linux in the first place. And Linux proved me right: old hardware is still good. My first server was a 32 bit laptop.
I also work in the social sector btw.
Sorry for unsolicited advice, but:
It’s usually about consequences. At that age, they react to actions much more than to words.
And more generally, they need to learn that words have meaning, too. There’s way too many parents who just lazily shout “KEVIIIN, STOP THAT!” without any sort of follow-up. Not saying you do that though.
