The winning play is to make no changes that could get you back in the news, and wait for the news cycle to move on to the next outrage.

Possibly try to grease Rogan's hand to lay low on the vaccine topic/guests for a while.

Many 'rules' (like one request -> one file) create limitations in Gemini that prevent it from being capable of web-style corporate behaviour, so even if business isn't content with regular web users and doesn't leave Gemini users alone, their options and the damage they can do is hampered (unless co-opting the entire movement).

I think the protocol being designed around ensuring it's difficult for sites to exploit visitors is a core goal that gets lost in the blinding document minimalism that's hits you when first encountering Gemini, OP didn't seem to get it.

The list doesn't have ANØM

"Paltering" is another one, with an "Artful Paltering" psyc paper differentiating it as:

* Lying by omission - the passive omission of relevant information.

* Paltering - active use of truthful statements to convey a misleading impression.

But knowbody will know what you mean if you use the word paltering, so "by omission" would still be the go-to phrase.

The deal to be acquired by Muse Group was announced 30 April, and "Muse Group was formed just a few days prior to the Audacity announcement, on 26 April"

The latest release "Audacity-3.0.2" tag on github is 14th April, as is the date that the Windows 3.0.2 installer was signed. So the current latest release predates the announcement and formation of Muse Group.

The privacy notice was updated 2nd July. We don't know if that's when the new clause was added, however issue #1213 on github suggests that it was.

But I've not looked at the code, so don't know what telemetry was already in place before the project was acquired. Anyone?

though our companies will one day be competing with product manufacturers in China who get to use it to its fullest

> I hope that GitHub is at least limiting any training data to a sensible whitelist of licenses (MIT, BSD, Apache, and similar)

Yes, and even those licences require preservation of the original copyright attribution and licence. MIT gives some wiggle room with the phrase "substantial portions", so it might just be MIT and WTFPL

> The one thing it didn't have was longevity

Wikis would come and go like mushrooms and I too was burned once, so I figured Wikipedia's data will never be abandoned and so have been using mediawiki for over a decade. Even if mediawiki is one day abandoned the migration tools will be excellent.

history, syntax highlighting, inline images, tables etc. Markdown would be nice - and there's an extension which enables that, but who knows if that extension will have a lifespan/migration-path like Wikipedia will.

Wow, the PGI compiler becoming open-sourced is awesome.

How is Fortran coming along with GPUs? (last I looked it was being done with proprietary compiler language extensions, but that was a while ago)

Are modern supercomputers faster than a cluster of consumer-grade GPU cards?

Yeah, to create a good free speech site these days with the big sites expelling crud while keeping the rest, you may have to keep quite about the free speech aspect and instead concentrate on building a good userbase first.
