'losing proposition' is irrelevant. The law is clear in this case, and the law makes Github's obligations exceptionally clear. By refusing to act, if the DMCA notice was valid, Github is breaking the law and forfeiting their safe harbor status.

Rust is just the language they happened to be working in. If you read through the LLM generated garbage it becomes clear that io_uring isnt the problem, their code was just slop / bad.

He also decided that it was appropriate to say "The team threatened us with unfounded accusations of plagarism." Which has to be the absolute height of irony on both the counts of plagiarism and threats given that OpenAI has effectively admitted to likely plagiarism with their deliberate non-answers, and explicitly admitted to threatening them.

Curses, the TUI library, has been around since 1978. It was superseded by ncurses in 1993, which saw it's latest update in December of 2025. Both of them still work and can be used today, with the caveat that the official original curses has been deprecated since 95, but NetBSD maintains an updated version iirc.

You clearly didn't actually look at the link and are just responding to the title. There's Supreme Court precedent. It doesn't get any clearer than that.

I think the point is that breaking it up makes the cost more palatable. It's also easier to convince people to spend a bit of money for people they care about than a bunch for themselves that they don't strictly need. People also often struggle to think of gift ideas for birthdays.

You clearly didn't read the actual policy if you think they're banning llms.

They explicitly say that "create" is not the hard or valuable part. I suggest you actually read their policy instead of just the headline and then reacting to comments.

Darktable should already basically do all of this with their existing copy and import function. The only thing it won't do is erase the SD card for you, and generally I would recommend you just format it on the camera.

Why the fuck does extreme heat require turning off the AC?

It's worth noting that the average sentence for murder in the US is 15 years. And it is not actually a "designated terrorist organization". The government is claiming they are a "domestic terrorist organization" which isnt a thing under US law, additionally, there is no organization to speak of.

This feels like some combination of monumentally stupid and incredibly naive.

They pay the most taxes, but they also pay the lowest percentage of taxes compared to the money and assets that they have.

It certainly shouldn't be. But society has a responsibility to take care of everyone to a basic minimum standard. Everyone deserves somewhere safe to sleep at night, to be able to bathe and clean themselves, to be healthy, and to have enough to eat and drink. If you can guarantee these things for anyone who can't afford it themselves, then you don't need to do literally anything else.
