It’s my personal understanding/experience that it’s a term for babies who are unable to walk, but can crawl and tend to put everything in their mouths.

Why is being used here as an insult or slur is beyond my comprehension.

Since we’re talking that era, Sliders was a great show early on and it’s a tragedy nobody knows it.

I have to wonder what kind of child hears someone say that they pay in cash rather than use a card and assume that they’re rich.

I have to imagine you are so fiscally deficient that the 2% or so card transaction fee doesn’t even register to you. Did you know that especially some Mom and Pop shops will charge less when using cash for that very reason? Gas stations even advertise cash rates for gas.

Ignorance and arrogance are a horrible combo.

This is the central reason I choose not to engage with most posts. It’s a toss up whether I’m talking to a rational human being or I happened to walk into the side of the antinatalist hyper accelerationist ML willing to die to defend the most obscure take about consent or something.

I would love a more healthy, less terminally online discourse on Lemmy.

Don’t dead Open inside?

Yes. Quic and other protocols are too new and don’t have a ton of support in firewall and inspection tools that are used by said corpos. It’s even required in the DISA STIG requirements to disable quic at the browser level.

If I’m a military supplier of nukes to the government, I can freely use GPL and there’s no legal issue with that. You cannot request the nuclear launch software or the guidance control software even if they use GPL licensed code within it. Why? Because they don’t distribute said code to the public. If you develop something for private use, and it never gets a public release there’s no obligation or requirement to release the source! This is especially true for a government contractor that only makes software for a single customer (the government).

I think we’re agreeing that your claim was nonsense at this point, but I still don’t understand where people get these strange ideas about how GPL stops commercial or military use outside of very specific and frankly niche ways. If this is your reason for preferring GPL, it’s poorly thought out.

In purely private (or internal) use—with no sales and no distribution—the software code may be modified and parts reused without requiring the source code to be released. For sales or distribution, the entire source code needs to be made available to end users, including any code changes and additions—in that case, copyleft is applied to ensure that end users retain the freedoms defined above.

GPL code can also be used for commercial and military use. What are you smoking where you think that is even remotely true? Genuinely asking. It feels like people on your side of the argument have all learned what you have from the same, ill informed source.

It’s unclear to me what you’re trying to achieve, and it seems like a counterproductive way to go about it, prone to failure, and needlessly expensive for anything of moderate size.

You’re probably over indexing on the importance of downvotes if you’re just doing this for yourself. If you’re looking to make something actually useful to everyone, votes are probably an indicator of interest.

Personally, I read the readme and concluded that that project wasn’t worth my time given the model and AI generated walls of text to tell me it has mobile accessible webpages and end to end encryption. Neither of which is a significant or revolutionary feature in 2025(almost 26) and are basically expectations.

Honestly it annoys me how much the well has been poisoned with rust that we’re even talking about the language here. There is so much focus on rust that we’re not even talking about how they literally couldn’t tell the difference between their software crashing in production and a ddos attack.

They had no visibility into their runtime environment, and from my understanding of the Blogpost, didn’t even look into the possibility until the entire cluster went down from this bad config.

Like, even assuming they did input validation, what should the clickhouse services do when they’re fed an invalid config? I’d argue the only sensible thing would be to refuse to start. But it seems like crashing wasn’t being detected at all.

This is my once a month request that my favorite Muppet not be used as a derogatory term for musk. I love Elmo. It makes me sad to have people use his name as an insult.

That might be true, but claiming that people only moved because they were propagandized into doing so by a for-profit company is absurd.

This is incredibly reductive and at best looking at mumble through Rose tinted glasses.

Mumble has had a rocky past as a useful piece of software and it’s absolutely not been a discord competitor any more than TeamSpeak is a discord competitor.

Maybe it’s changed recently, but mumble has not had the feature set that made discord useful in the first place.

I don’t know that the OP or anyone else necessarily disagrees with you here. It’s one of the reasons that I believe we’re fucked when the bubble pops. Every other sector is shrinking otherwise, which is only making the mania more extreme.

Trump has fucked the economy, but I don’t expect the next administration to be able to pull off a miracle and fix the mess we’ve created within the next 10 years. Foreign relations and our status as the reserve currency are shot to hell. The US is going to have to answer for our behavior.

Does anyone remember the wizard of Oz where Dorothy returns to oz and that Lady changes her head? That stuff creeped me out when I was little to no end. Not sure I ever even finished it.

From a completely unscientific but ‘experienced’ perspective I think the problem is that life just gets in the way as you get older, and you prioritize your own life rather than trying to learn.

Whether neuroplasticity means you can learn things later or not, the opportunity to learn things later just isn’t there without effort.

Having a job, kids, a mortgage and no social obligation to learn in a structured and organized way probably impacts you more than anything neurological.

Isolation has the connotation of a single thing or individual being… Isolated from the group. Atomization is meant to evoke a sense of the more widespread impact on society. After all, if something only impacts a small subset it’s considered… “Isolated”

That being said, atomization is definitely not a new term to describe this…

History and good explanations of what was changed and why is incredibly useful for being able to determine if something is a bug, a feature, and why something was written a particular way.

I’m not super stringent on commit style, but it absolutely helps to structure commit messages, especially in larger projects where they’re being worked on piecemeal.

2fa isn’t a panacea and won’t solve every problem. It does help though. Why do you think supply chain integrity isn’t something they care about?

Phoronix comments are always such a mixed bag. I get that something still running after 20 years is cool and all, but it’s not necessarily a good thing.

Personally, I usually take issue with the missing institutional knowledge on such projects. It doesn’t matter if it runs, it matters that we’re running something we can fix if it explodes.

I recently built some stuff with the latest gcc compiler that was written in c89, but still compiled. That’s pretty sweet and very convenient for us, but the flags and the commands aren’t documented at all. So we have to spelunk through ancient scripts to find the right incantations or worse, read the code. Because who needs docs for an internal tool ammirite?
