-Where are the build instructions? -Please go check that commit message from 2011


AI code, junior dev or distracted person, either way there is no defense for AMD. As a billion dollar company you would at least have a simple QA before pushing slop into open source projects

FFmpeg maintainers have to keep pointing out incorrect parts. And conclude the entire is redundant

The PR interaction are clearly AI filler, at least on the second one

At this point open source projects should charge big companies to review their PRs


So we should expect them to NSFW all manga/anime reading/browsing apps. Clearly many hypersexualise women, possibly minors, normalize sexual abuse, violence, both text and visuals

Probably all social client apps for their addictive characteristics, and unhealthy polarizing content, and generally mental health degrading. Including Facebook, Reddit, fediverse...

Let's be real no one is going to read the bible by accident. It is much easier for a young person to find explicit content in Lemmy/fediverse apps


After 2020, covid or long covid or something else, vaccine or not, a lot of people have been experiencing several prolonged health abnormalities, and health system are refusing or failing to recognise it. So a lot of people are trying to make sense of it and taking measures

Vitamins, exercise and reducing alcohol are some obvious ones

Besides there are studies about post covid and damage to the liver, pancreas, gut... A lot of these will have similar symptoms with alcohol excess or maybe compound with alcohol consumption


You just need to scroll a bit, without logging in, to get inappropriate content like the Ads of Spiderman beating Elsa with a pan

And the YT app comes pre installed in most androids


You can give a phone with very restricted social media

My child under 10 has a tablet. She can message the family, draw, make videos, take pictures, has a album, some musics. Some, limited time, video cartoons and mostly educational games

Companies should provide better tolling to help parents follow their children online. Especially now with AI would be quite easy to make smart policies


Books are still super relevant

If you read something written by a field specialist you don't just learn something, you get the core of the issue. All the mechanics that lead to it, tradeoffs, and the possible paths for the future. That makes the book relevant for many years

Though it is hard to make ourselves read long form content nowadays where short content is pushed to us every day

Also seeing so much short content make us think the books are outdated. When in reality it keeps churning the same implementation details and getting us burned out for not progressing. And bleeding keeps being reinvented on set concepts

And might be a good hiring tip, read a book a year, put it on your CV

You get new career prespectives/vision, opportunities, libraries ideas, companies ideas, research ideas


Remember 10 years ago at big company, the external audit company required picture evidence that the electronic equipment was being destroyed. We requested it to the disposal company, and they sent us pictures of a guy with a hammer smashing a motherboard

The whole situation so ridiculous and bureaucratic


I also don't care to try Wayland. Xorg has already won

A lot of people would argue avoiding systemd bloat as a plus

The end user interface for shepherd and systemd are very similar. And probably the least of your worries migrating to a declarative distro


Xorg won? I mean, it has a larger install base probably, but it's also been around significantly longer.


In the long run MIT code developer becomes irrelevant

After the million dollar company forks it and includes it in their product without even saying hello. And the developer is left with a depression

I think each project, and its conditions, can take advantage of diferent licences, there are very successful projects in all of them
