OpenAI is jumping from scandal to scandal. But yeah sure, let’s use their products, we can safely and blindly trust them, what can go wrong?
Please wake up. All this is absurd.
I enjoy writing algorithms more than I would like to admit. Optimising, explaining them, breaking complex things into multiple simple things, it’s clearly a pure mental joy.
Home Assistant saves 215 computer hours per month when using uv, e.g. on armhf when it took 1h52m20s with pip versus 6m2s with uv to run their release workflow. That’s insane.
About xz: fortunately it was an open source software. Imagine if it was close source, imagine if individuals or companies were injecting malicious codes in all their softwares, what a disaster it would be.
Oh. Yeah. It’s sarcasm.
Please don’t blame the open source model. This attack/backdoor has been detected because all softwares were open source. Blame the free volunteer-based economy, that is foundational for large stacks, yup, that’s OK, but not the open source model.
@jdrouet@hywan paying is not going to help… Well, it could but for some of these projects, paying the developer wouldn't help. Some of these projects are hobby projects where maintainers are not interested in spending more time on it and not interested in making it their only project moving forward even if you paid them to basically work full time on them. Money is not buying time or attention. It can help but thinking money is the only issue is wrong, imo.
