Here's the thing folks: if your code depends on other people's code, you're ultimately responsible for whatever maintenance it needs. And that's fine.

> I'm not so sure. Google does deindexing at the request of others. Maybe it also does it on its own and we don't notice it

Google does unilateral deindexing too, and is open that it does so.

Google may temporarily or permanently remove sites from its index and search results if it believes it is obligated to do so by law, if the sites do not meet Google's quality guidelines, or for other reasons, such as if the sites detract from users' ability to locate relevant information. We cannot comment on the individual reasons a page may be removed. However, certain actions such as cloaking, writing text in such a way that it can be seen by search engines but not by users, or setting up pages/links with the sole purpose of fooling search engines may result in removal from our index. Please read our spam policies pages for more information.

People do notice it, and write “what do if it happens to you” articles about it:

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre actually is good though. I watched it quite recently and was surprised how good the cinematography, soundtrack, performances etc were. Admittedly good in a cheap and gnarly way that suited the subject matter, not in a technically perfect way.

I think maybe the polarizing nature is that it's "good" at hitting a particular tone, or providing a particular flavour of experience. But it's not a flavour everybody wants or approves of.

Edit: It's true though that there's a market for horror movies that are not good. In fact AIUI it's about the only genre where there's any market at all at the low budget end. Maybe gangster films.
> Tools to evaluate LLMs to make it harder to generate malicious code or aid in carrying out cyberattacks.

As a security researcher I'm both delighted and disappointed by this statement. Disappointed because cybersecurity research is a legitimate purpose for using LLMs, and part of that involves generating "malicious" code for practice or to demonstrate issues to the responsible parties. However, I'm delighted to know that I have job security as long as every LLM doesn't aid users in cybersecurity related requests.

You are going to catch a lot of downvotes for Atlas Shrugged unless it is added with irony. It is truly a bad book written by a rather horrible person with dubious morals. I strongly recommend anyone who has progressed beyond their angsty sophomore year of college to give it a pass; just go read Anthem to get a feel for Rand's poorly justified bullshit (and to observe a nice example of 'literature' that can do no better than straw man antagonists) and save yourself several hundred pages of reading.
I think we shouldnt even try, because LLMs will simply design new hardware and software all by its own. All we need to do is sit and watch, while collecting UBI.
Smil's recent "Invention and Innovation" is well worth reading, too. Anything by Smil, really, is excellent food for thought and deeply informative.

Assuming that Earth was very average is a very rational place to start, but the reasonability of this assumption changes when we look elsewhere for life and fail to find it. Earth being average was once the basis for people assuming that other planets in our solar system might have intelligent civilizations; that has been almost entirely ruled out now (maybe there could be a civilization of space squid under the ice of Europa?) And we've failed to detect any radio signals that indicate life elsewhere in the stars near Earth. There's still a lot of searching left to be done, but each time we look and fail to find anything we should be updating our priors.

That film’s on my to-watch list because everything I’ve heard about it is along the lines of “it’s… actually good. Not good for a sequel to a mediocre kids’ movie in the talking/telepathic-live-action-animals subgenre, but actually good. For adults.”

I don't know, for two reasons: one, I am not sure about the relationship between the foundational type system Lean uses (the Calculus of Inductive Constructions) and usual set theories. Two, there is more than one notion of constructiveness, and I do not care to dig into the semantics of each.

Myself, I am not a constructivist in any way. I just like to produce data whenever I can, and I believe that sometimes constructive proofs give additional insights for the objects we study; therein lies my interest in constructive arguments.

Safety is just the latest trojan horse being used by big tech to try and control how people use their computers. I definitely belive in responsible use of AI, but I don't belive that any of these companies have my best interests at heart and that I should let them tell me what I can do with a computer.

Those who trade liberty for security get neither and all that.
> Your site seems to imply that Open Source projects cannot be sustainable businesses, but we see this all the time (Supabase, Aseprite, Miniflux). I would remove that from your site anyway because it's not exactly a selling point.

Notably, 2/3 of your examples are server-side applications where the product is hosting, and Aseprite isn't open source, it's source-available.

In general, businesses around open source tend to either be selling hosting or support. For a client-side application, hosting isn't an option, and I also doubt that selling support packages will work for something small like developer tooling—the examples I can think of of client-side sustainable FOSS businesses are all Linux distros.

Do you have any other examples of client-side FOSS businesses that I'm missing?

Edit: one strategy I missed is open core, like JetBrains, but since that's a hybrid model I think that's actually evidence in favor of OP's claim that FOSS is hard to sustain.
This technique works but larger models are smart enough to change it back like this:

I agree. Thing is, asynchronous communication is a killer feature. My primary communications channel is email, but I don't use encrypted email.

Paradox (the studio) has been going downhill recently. Of the games they’ve released since 2016, Imperator: Rome struggled at launch and has since been completely abandoned and Victoria 3 was a massive disappointment. That leaves Crusader Kings 3, which is good but still lacks a lot of stuff from Crusader Kings 2.

Paradox (the publisher) has had a couple of rough launches recently too. I was really looking forward to Cities: Skylines 2 except it launched with absolutely unplayable performance issues. Meanwhile, Star Trek: Infinite is little more than a half baked reskin of Stellaris.

Paradox is also one of the worst offenders when it comes to DLC. Actually buying the full version of any single Paradox game could cost upwards of a hundred dollars. That was fine when the base version of the game at release time was already good but recently that’s not consistently the case.
The thing that makes me enjoy them is the attention to detail. He builds entire worlds and controls everything in them (at least once he got past his first few films).

It's because the top earners make obscene levels of money, and a union might disrupt that. So you have a situation where a company might only lose lower performers to unionization, which they can afford to handle.
Doing so would prevent people from striking against unfair conditions, because they would lose the ability to feed themselves, and so would rather suffer bad working conditions.

I really like the idea of the Terminal Graphics Protocol and the aims of the project, but I feel it's important to address the choice of the Lenna photo. This image, although historically significant in the field of image processing, is increasingly viewed as an outdated and inappropriate choice due to its origins and the implicit message it conveys.

The Lenna photo, originally taken from a Playboy magazine, perpetuates a narrow and objectified view of women. Its continued use in tech demos and educational materials not only overlooks the rich diversity of alternative images available for such purposes but also subtly endorses a culture that many in the tech community are striving to move away from.

In an era where inclusivity and sensitivity are rightfully gaining prominence, it's crucial that we reassess and update our educational and demonstrative tools to reflect these values. Opting for more neutral and universally appropriate images would not only avoid potential discomfort among a diverse audience but also demonstrate a commitment to fostering a more inclusive and respectful tech culture.

I've been using GPG to symmetrically encrypt most of my secrets, like OPT seeds and stuff like that, and then save it in some accessible places.

Just yesterday I was frustrated that gpg didn't work very well in my terminal for some reason (the barrier between entering the data and the password was weirdly permeable, i.e. sometimes some of my password ended up in the data, and more often a lot of what I pasted ended up in the password prompt).

So I found openpgp.js and made a little website where i can encrypt and decrypt my secrets.

I used that particular library because it feels safe that the things I have encrypted can be decrypted with a tool that is accessible everywhere... as long as I can remember the passwords :)

But I wonder, are the defaults for symmetric encryption in openpgp not considered safe anymore, or how should i interpret some of the other comments here?

> Is anyone else kinda hoping that GPG/PGP loses enough respect in the tech community that something fresh comes along that really solves a lot of the UX and security issues they have?

This already exists. It's just not a single, all-in-one tool - the answer is to use a tool that's fit for the specific purpose you're trying to accomplish (secure messaging, encrypted backups, encrypting application data, etc.)

There is not, and never will be, a modern one-size-fits-all approach because the entire industry has moved on from that model - over the last 30 years, we (collectively) have learned that it's inherently insecure to design a tool to do so many disparate things and expect people to use it correctly each way.
