I don't get the sales pitch, spend 15 million dollars to win a 1 million dollar price?

Showing of the model's capabilities - okay, but it's not like it solved the problem on its own, and apparently not particularly efficient. Are there practical applications that justify the investment?

Aren't business consulting firms even worse? They are explicitly for business and there are known cases where they shared confidential information of one of their customers with another one.

Remote attestation?

… and let's not forget about Iran's Lego videos!

A perfectly normal thing to do.

I suppose it's not about patents or copyright but rather the fear that a re-submitted patch can't be trusted because the original patch is considered not trustworthy, or that the resubmission is carried out by the sanction person itself or a friend under an email address that doesn't fall under the sanctions. Either way, it could be seen as a liability.

Certainly the most fun website about a security vulnerability

In what general direction would the innovation be?

I'm not sure if it's actually needed - a lot of things have been tried and the paradigms that persisted you can choose between but it seems to be a matter of taste. I often feel that the real issue is the lack of maturity and stability. I rather want a complete UI toolkit including learning resources (not reference docs!), no matter how boring, instead of super clever implementation that is never in a usable state.

Wondering if it's just the marketing that Noctua did, and the actual mold and process engineering left to some fab in China?

Isn't it a dumbed down version of Azure Pipelines?

A fork of OnlyOffice with some big names behind it who want to make it easier to build and contribute to, great. Yet LibreOffice seems to remain the only FOSS office solution with native apps (although they aren't particularly good).

My dog doesn't react to familiar voices over the phone at all. The compression and reproduction of audio, while fine for humans, definitely doesn't work for her animal ears.

No image in the readme, bummer.

Zig has the concept of illegal behavior, of which a subset is unchecked illegal behavior - basically undefined behavior, but if evaluated at comptime, it results in a compile error. The documentation also states that most illegal behavior is safety-checked unless you use the ReleaseFast or ReleaseSmall optimization modes (and don't enable safety checks for individual blocks).
