    This sounds like a big whataboutism, or at least oversimplification. The opposite of individualistic society could be western socialism. > Religious out groups, ethnic out groups, …

    Right? I’m not buying it. Seems like personal PR post. Why care so much about so little operating costs when your earning so much?

    > They could use AGPL or GPL3, typically those licenses are verboten in hyperscalers. Laws are only as good as their enforcement, in business at least. Unfortunately I have seen fi…

    I’m sorry. Why are we talking about Black neighbourhoods? Feel like we are trying to put the author in a bad (racist or classists?) light so we do not have to address the real issu…

    Because its failure rate is too high. Beyond boilerplate code and CRUD apps, if I let AI run freely on the projects I maintain, I spend more time fixing its changes than if I just …

    I agree, I don’t like it as much as you do. I’m just saying nothing short of a mandated TPM will actually enforce this. I think they know that. I think this is mostly for show to s…

    Does not require verification, no biggie, this is essentially a parental control system.

    > More than 9 million paying business users rely on ChatGPT for work That’s a stretch. Sure many business _use_ OpenAI, but that does not an operational necessity. Especially given…

    I also think it is often momentum from “do you have a GitHub” questions you see in hiring. There are many people who code to make cool stuff and enjoy sharing, but there is even mo…
