I understand how you feel but IP blacklisting is really the only tool we have.
I'd much rather deal with that than some kind of forced state level verification/ID system where even pseudonymous browsing becomes impossible.

Blocking IP ranges by country or ISP is pretty much always going to have to exist as long as certain countries and ISPs turn a blind eye to abuse.

Even with as poor a solution as IP blocks are, it's the best we have and alternatives seem worse.

Nice to hear from you! Yes it was a very reasonable choice back then, before (enormous) asm.js and Wasm functions.

The compiler wasn't really designed for these huge graphs, but fortunately a lot of the issues can be fixed incrementally and it's still holding up well.
Leadership is short sighted and not acting rationally.

Doing as you said is much smarter, but maybe takes a bit longer. My guess is Matt was reaching for some way to "hit them back" quickly.
"That is deeply unfortunate, because the questions about sustainability of open-source projects, and who profits from them versus who produces them, are in need of addressing. Instead of having that conversation, Mullenweg has put questions about governance, centralized software distribution, and software supply chains at the forefront."

Oh, I wish, because the discussion about, centralized software distribution, and software supply chains will have to be had and it cannot be separated from the open-source profits discussion.[1]

In my opinion some take aways from this should be:

1. As users we should do better avoiding unilateral dependencies. Specifically, every central repository we are using for free is a risk. Be it wordpress.org, npm or crates.io.[2]

2. As open-source author, decide if your project is a charity or not. Expect people to be angry, when you change your mind, even if the law is on your side.

3. Defend your trademarks vigorously from day one. Being lenient in the hope of free brand awareness will bite you.

[1] I am a bit disappointed that LWN, which I hold in high regard, recognized this, but still decided to ride the drama train. LWN I am used to better things from you.

[2] Java's convention of using domains in package names was ugly, inconvenient and did not solve the problem completely (see the issues around javax and sun packages), but it gave us a far better chance to avoid a dangerous dependency.

EDIT: I am tempted to add a fourth point, even if it is not 100% applicable to the case:

4. Don't expect people to understand open source licensing. Neither the authors who decided on a license in the first place, nor corporate lawyers - especially corporate lawyers.
Why would Chevron need to be overridden by legislation when it wasn’t created by legislation? It was created by the courts so logically it could be struck down by the courts.

And the courts are not supposed to represent the “will of the people”. Law is not a popularity contest.
All their splash art shows comics. That makes sense, inasmuch as comics are a primary reason you'd want color in a book. But it still strikes me as a bizarre choice, since Amazon is only offering colors in their tiny form factor. They also make a larger device, and if you want color, you can't have it.

Comics are unreadable on a 7" kindle's tiny screen anyway. What's up with the marketing?
From my layman understanding, yes, this concept should be bidirectional.

I said that because it's very possible for someone to write a more flawed program without an LLMs help. The exact probabilities weren't central to my point.
i think solar sail is red herring kind of. Really slow and very big, and hardly working beyond Mars.

Compare to nuclear powered ion thruster. Say we get reactor plus generation at 5KW/kg total - takes some engineering, yet nothing unrealistic for current tech (even 10KW/kg seems pretty reachable). Reactor is on a long pole with only small protection wall directly between reactor and payload. Say 5 ton reactor, 25MW. 100 ton whole rocket, 80 ton of it reaction mass. At current NASA 40km/s ion trusters we get delta-v 80km/s in 60 days. If we get thrusters with 80km/s - wikipedia mentions that current ones reach 50km/s, so don't see why we can't increase voltage and thus ejection speed further - then it would take 240 days to reach delta-v 160km/s (i.e. current multi-year missions to Jupiter/etc. would get in well under a year, and it will be with like 10 ton payloads). Don't see solar sails coming close to that - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_sail#Inner_planets.

And as i mentioned earlier - let say we got thrusters with 400km/s. The same rocket will get to 800km/s - 1500 years to the nearest star - in 20 years. 3 stages - 500 years to the nearest star. 1 ton final payload if starting with 1000 ton rocket like the one described above.

Gathering reaction mass ram style - it needs big apparatus and needs to be efficient. Doesn't seem realistic with current tech, yet i'm sure will be on the table once the tech matures.

But also because it is not really 28 hours of battery life. If you just let it sit without touching it, the battery lasts for several weeks, if not longer.

It's a hard class of devices to give any sort of reasonable battery life length.

My oasis is configured to make its lighting unusable. There are no buttons controlling the lighting. You have to navigate a menu on the touchscreen.

This is very amusing to me because it reads like a list of things LLMs truly stink at. Though at least they finally represent some nonzero amount of movement in that direction.
I just email epubs (as .txt) to my kindle's email address and they show up on the device in a couple of minutes. Never had any books just vanish.

I've started replying to the emails when I unsubscribe. Just gibberish or the word "unsubscribe" or something. That way if they email me again I can complain to them with the exact date that I unsubscribed. I feel like I'm turning into a grouchy old man, but I've caught more than a few companies this way over the years and it brings me joy when I do.
When I bought my Paperwhite around 2013, I noticed that ads were an option on the kindles sold in the US but not in Canada. In Canada there was only the no-ads version.
To be fair, the webauthn spec expressly forbids facilitating the extraction of credentials from the authenticator (though arguably even syncing between devices violates the spec).

> They profit off Wordpress' brand for free.

What the hell are you on about? Wordpress is GPL. Are all Linux distro profiting off Linus’ brand?

There is a very simple thing you can do if you don’t want people to do this: use a different license. You cannot eat your cake and keep having it.

> Maintaining a fork and building a new brand will be expensive.

Publishing free software is a decision. You cannot come years later to say “no, actually you need to pay”, or “yeah, it’s free but not like that”.

The whole “WPE does not contribute” point is completely disingenuous and I cannot believe that people are still uttering it in good faith.

> The best scenario for all parties is to burry the hatch and for Matt to step down.

The best scenario is Wordpress going up in flames, Matt being utterly ridiculed for his dishonest behaviour and the whole thing serving as a cautionary tale.

Microsoft is slowly being squeezed from both sides of the market. Chromebooks have silently become wildly popular on the low end. The only advantage I see windows have is corporate and gaming. But valve is slowly chopping away at the gaming advantage as well.
This is wrong. Permissively licensed (MIT, BSD, WTFPL, Apache, etc.) free software is still free software. Open-source requires the provision of the same right to distribute modified copies as free software does.

Copyleft licenses like the GPL assert the same right recursively for downstream users, more or less (details vary between copyleft licenses). But granting the right (to distribute modified copies) to first-order recipients of the source code is common to all free and open-source licenses. That's great! I imagine it's what you're getting at with the phrase 'properly secured'.

But to qualify as open-source, a license must allow redistribution of modified copies, and copyleft is not the only kind of free software license

See (for instance) the Free Software Foundation Europe's FAQ entry 'what is open-source software?':

My last e-reader was a Boox Note. It did its job but was slow and after a couple of years just didn't start up anymore.

Then I switched to Kindle Scribe, mainly for the large screen. It was amazing, it was so much faster and more responsive. I even started to use the scribe to make notes, though I didn't buy it for that purpose. With the Boox Note I never did that because of the slowness, it was just annoying.
Personally I always found that just attending relevant events and using the audience question time to make (hopefully) interestimg remarks or addotional insights led to great conversations with interested attendees wich become potentiall customers.

I’ve been wanting to have a color ereader for a while (e.g. when non-fiction books have charts, illustrations, and photos I want to see them as they appear in print) and I’ve been looking at Kobo and others. But I want access to buy books on Amazon easily.

It’s my understanding that you can’t easily get Amazon books onto anything else than Kindle, is that not true?
> you can probably get them to click approve

It depends on the type of attack being mounted, but a typical phishing attack is mounted as a MITM attack. With passkeys, a MITM cannot get the client to even ask the user to approve the transaction because the attacker cannot authenticate as the relying party.

You can attack passkeys by, say, compromising the user's machine, but that's not phishing.
I've been using the same Kindle Paperwhite for about 13 years and there always have been ads in it because I didn't pay for the 30$ extra initially. It never bothered me as they stop when you put the device in airplane mode, which is what I always do ;-)
Apparently the reason that all the Android based ereaders use Android 11 is due to the eink driver not supporting anything newer. Though it looks like they have moved to Android 12 on the latest devices so they must have figured something out.
Work is for working. You work towards the goals of the org or you gtfo. I think these policies are great.

Nice voice of reason swyx, people who are not hooked on X, will have selective memory, "Mistral has changed, I miss the old Mistral".

Last year Mistral watched as every provider host their models with little to no value capture.

Nemo is Apache 2.0 license, they could have easily made that a Mistral Research License model.

It's hard to pitch vc for more money to build more models when you don't capture anything making it Apache 2.0.

Not everyone can be Meta.

Magnet links are cute but honestly, most people rather use HF to get their models.
I’m trying to get a better picture of this. Can someone tell me what percentage of code contributions are paid for by Matt/automattic? If it’s like 99% then I’m a little more sympathetic, I’m reminded of the centos/redhat thing. Either way, peace :)

Yes, my laptop doesn't require a hard reboot after closing the lid. Linux fans won't understand this.

There's no point pretending this isn't a thing, everyone has a story.

As I said, I'm not new here. I've been using linux for 20 years. Linux desktop is garbage no matter the tangent you want to explore. I have 3 developers using windows so know all about developing ai with wsl and the fun problems that come along with that.
Kalman Filter helped me understand the mathematical concepts that make it a powerful tool for estimating values from noisy data

I made a simulation that forecasted a greenhouse's temperature and humidity to help me understand the idea. I began by going over the basics of Gaussians and normal distribution once more. After that, I used NumPy and SciPy to develop the Kalman Filter in Python. To represent the system, I defined noise matrices (Q and R), a state transition matrix (F), and a control input matrix (B).

I haven't used the professional ones since they are prohibitively priced in India and hence very hard to compare. My budget also limits such secondary investment for me since my impairment doesn't impact day to day life but it does affect some quality of life since I am not able to hear certain conversational frequencies especially in high noise areas or when someone whispers or talks really soft. Airpods Pro 2 work well for me and have made aware of many rich sounds around me and made conversations with family and cab drivers better. It does seem tacky to wear them when I need to but I am getting used to it. Also, I am not too upfront about my impairment to all my friends yet but I am working towards that. I had a vacation recently and went about wearing them all the time and it was awesome. Had such rich conversations with the Airbnb host I was staying with and actually told her about my impairment. It was revealing to me that it isn't all stigma telling people about the impairment and I could actually make them more mainstream in my life. It should be noted, and I have heard from multiple people in multiple forums, Airpods Pro only work good for medium or medium-to-severe hearing impairment. Anything worse than that may not bring out the optimum results.
