End-to-end encryption stops being secure... at the end... Who would've thought
I work in semiconductors, and I don't think the numbers are necessarily unfair. There are a lot of small companies and academic research labs receiving funding from the CHIPS act, and their work gets done faster when there are fabs in the country to tape out their designs.
What annoys me about companies like StackOverflow, Reddit, Twitter, etc. partnering with AI firms is that they do not actually create any of the content on their platforms. Sure, if you read the terms they technically own the data, but still...
There are instances where the user is implied, but there is always a user. As far as Git goes, the user is almost always git

Interesting. I didn't realize XCursor predates most image formats XD
Unless we move toward a society where everyone is wearing a VR headset 24/7, I don't think we need to worry about most of the issues mentioned in the article... Still worth a read, but a bit exaggerated
This is because each desktop operating system using a different graphics rendering engine—Quartz on macOS and X/Wayland on Linux, for example. In order to write an application that works on all major operating systems, you either need to use a graphics library that has already done the heavy lifting of calling the native frameworks under the hood or you have to do it yourself. Or you can use a web-based graphics library that has also already done that heavy lifting, with the added advantage that you can use languages like HTML, CSS, and Javascript to easily create visual elements. This is attractive when the alternatives like Qt are notoriously difficult to deploy and force you to use C/C++.
"Hey, I hear you're a programmer! That's great, because my buddy and I have this idea for a business. We have everything important figured out, and all we need is a programmer to throw it together."
The sheer number of times I have been approached with this same phrase... 😂
