    It's honestly not that difficult to be rigorous. The things you mentioned in the blog post are pretty obvious forms of degenerate practices once you get used to seeing them. The be…

    So my mission critical infrastructure depends on a group whose bar for entry is having a proton mail account. I bet they claimed to be protecting trans people to get that policy ch…

    The compiler is still able to devirtualize and inline the p->f() call, even with an external linkage call preceding it. https://clang.godbolt.org/z/jE3o56ozz

    I know, right? It's like, finally—a threat actor who's intelligent enough to understand what capital means in the open source community and is willing to devote resources to engage…

    This is great example of the toxic effect money has on open source. Reward people with respect and recognition instead. Weird anonymous accounts no one's ever heard of will leave, …

    I only wrote that text file a few weeks ago. Also isn't stealing code what open source is all about? If only you could see how much code I've stolen from Rich Felker, David Gay, Su…

    I'm not sure you understand how the Internet works. I'm here to share thoughts, not to prove I'm smarter than people.

    They're funded by patronage. It's the most ancient economical model.

    There are a million doctors in the U.S. so if they're each seeing 60 patients per day that would mean that 17% of the population needs to be seen by a doctor daily. That would put …

    Firefox is the best. While Google tries to regulate the ad industry, Mozilla is working to safeguard our freedom to refuse.

    Do you have an adblocker? First thing this website did was try to get me to install a chrome extension.

    Anthropic will probably do what Google did in the 2000s, which is give jobs to all the open source developers whose work helped them get there. Civilization isn't monotonic. People…

    You have to push the robot to be as fanatical as you are. It holds so much back, always aiming to do the simple normal thing that most people do, rather than the top-notch stuff it…

    So you're both saying all the alpha in Claude comes from open source devs like me? Even when I'm wrong I'm right.

    I value software that reveals knowledge. The frontier LLMs were trained on all the code that institutions had been keeping to themselves. So they're revealing programing know-how o…

    Photopea is great but I switched to Pixelmator Pro. I just paid $49.99 one time. It's a clean native app. It doesn't install all these horrors of horror on my system like Photoshop…

    I guarantee you it's nothing quantifiable. LLMs can't be responsible for deciding what code you use because they have no skin in the game. They don't even have skin. If you type fa…
