I hadn’t heard of this one before, thanks for posting.
- Comment on Codeberg bans vibe coded projects 1 week ago:
This is still a problem for OSS licensing, since in order to license a work you need to be the copyright holder.
This might mean that OSS projects find it even more difficult to assert their licenses against violators in court, since they would need to prove that the part of the code that was copied was not AI output.
Banning the output of AI tools in OSS codebases is a sensible move for any project that actually cares about enforcing the license that their code is released under.

Spoiler tag please.

- Comment on "I know how devastating it is, and my heart's with all of you": Doom's John Romero responds to id Software reportedly losing half their team 3 weeks ago:
Back in the 90s I sent a fan email to John Romero, and he was gracious enough to send me a reply. I don’t think I still have an archive of my emails from that long ago, but it left me with an impression of him as being a good guy. I wouldn’t be too hard on him about “being relevant”. As one of the founding members of id software, it’s not surprising that news outlets will pick up on his comments, whether you think he deserves it or not.

I had to read that headline three times. Some quotation marks would help:

“Lurk for a while before posting,” has been a standard rule of netiquette for at least the 30 years that I’ve been using the ’net.

Yes that’s the one I was referring to.
- Comment on PRISM - a self-hosted OSINT platform with a real-time dashboard 1 month ago:
Did the LLM choose the name? There’s an obvious existing semantic link between PRISM and intel, so congrats on choosing an un-searchable name.

- Comment on COSMIC Desktop's Frosted Glass Is Giving Windows Aero Vibes 1 month ago:
Weird to compare it to Windows when you could compare it to Compiz from the same era.
- Comment on Framework Laptop 13 Pro To Begin Shipping In July 1 month ago:
What would it take for me to reconsider Framework? I think if their CEO stepped down and they published a binding ethics document to govern their external project donations, that might make me reconsider. Right now though, I can’t imagine rewarding their ambivalence towards the rhetoric of some of the projects they supported.
