@cmuratori Gross, and if self-hosted, expensive. When most of the traffic is AI bots and scrappers, you have to either pay for pro firewall protection or for the infra upgrade to sustain the pressure. Sharing content used to be a labor of love. But today it's also an economic commitment.

Yep. Despite my best intentions I've never been able to fully commit to maintaining an online resource, as much as I wanted to. Too damn busy. But nowadays, my interest in sharing hard-won knowledge for the benefit of others has been completely dissolved by AI scraping.
I find this sentiment very relatable. The behavior of AI companies has made it feel gross to share work online.

@cmuratori The obvious end game is that the internet and computers are mostly dead in terms of real content. Why put any effort into anything and post it online to get hoovered up by AI companies? AI has made be so much less interested in computers to be honest. The future is offline.

They do agree with me. You just have to actually read them :) Try it for yourself below! The reason why the authors lost in cases like Meta is because they brought these cases before any substantial use of AI was occurring, and therefore have no evidence of market disruption.
@cmuratori "if there is a demonstrable market effect it is very hard to show fair use. This is likely to be the case with AI art" If it's likely to be the case with AI art, why are there so few legal rulings agreeing with you?

This is a common excuse, but it's not actually true, and also not how copyright law works. Whether a use is educational is not the primary determiner of whether something is fair use - it's whether or not the use affected the commercial viability of the thing being copied. The
@Eppur13 @JulianG66566 @cmuratori No. All information is stolen from somewhere else. There is no such thing as originality. If Miyazaki gets paid then he should be paying all of the people that trained his brain too.

Have you considered paying some of that money to the artists, authors, and programmers who created 99% of your product, but who as of yet have not received a single cent from you?
In case anyone missed it - that’s one hundred billion dollars in three months 🤯

The replies to posts like this one never cease to amaze me. It reminds me of the desktop scaling excuse parade. If you can't immediately think of several better solutions to this problem than printing the instructions for console switching, you are in no place to condescend.

First Nowgrep release will be a closed beta where I will hand out a limited number of keys. I need to do a lot of testing, bug fixing and implement more UX features before I can confidently do a full release. If you're interested in being part of the closed beta, then please

So... we have to reprint Meow Book Three 😰 Our printer royally screwed us over, sending us books with some of the worst print errors I've seen. So now, we have to find a new press. To all of our Kickstarter backers, I'm so so sorry for the delay.

My cofounder and I are making an FPGA-accelerated server for high-memory high-bandwidth workloads. We're looking for one or two companies to partner with; we'll do the work to port your application to our hardware. Please DM me if you've got a tricky workload!

Our current on-prem OS count is now Windows 5, Linux 5, Mac 1. Hoping to convert another 3 Windows setups to Linux by the end of 2026. The only reason we're not still majority-Windows is because of Microsoft's aggressively anti-professional stewardship of the platform.
AI is now built in. “Every Windows 11 PC is now an AI PC – with Copilot at the center of it all.”

OP says "I don't know who needs to hear this." Neither do I. To whom was this post even theoretically addressed? The people complaining about Win11 don't want to create Microsoft accounts at all. Exactly when and how often you are forced to use them is not the issue.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need a Microsoft account to run Windows. You do need a Microsoft burner account to set up the FIRST account during setup, same as MacOS. After that, set up all the local accounts you like. It's what I do. Total time delta: 3

It is not plausible that your designers couldn't design an experts-only feature that novices wouldn't "inadvertently" use, @amanda_lango. If your intention is to force everyone to have a Microsoft account for your own internal business reasons, have the integrity to say so.
