It makes it really hard to distinguish scientific progress from marketing. I wish the important part was the discovery and that it was an LLM that made it was only an afterthought.
This comment is akin to asking farmers cut off from repairing their equipment "why don't you buy tractors from a different company instead of fighting to fix your existing ones?"
The investment in the case of social media is the network you've built. In my country most local events are announced primarily on facebook for example.
I am not sure if the above is marketing speech but of course you can open source it while not accepting PR that would harm the stability of the app.
Most developers interested in such software would not invest time and effort towards projects that may be abandoned soon, or that may have their future versions require subscriptions.
I am not going to be using Hollow, it is unusable in its current state and I do not see any security in helping the app grow.
However, I am much more likely to use and contribute to the ecosystem of an app that is open source, in order to avoid a rug pull (relevant article https://howtomarketagame.com/2021/11/01/dont-build-your-cast...).
I read in the website that it is not open source because it does not need to be, could you elaborate on this?
It feels very hard to find any sort of information on "Loops". Especially regarding their decentralization model.
I think Bluesky's ATP can support that, not sure about ActivityPub, but it probably can too.
Quick calculations say that ratio is 1.71:1 (https://rentry.co/k85wy696). I guess given the scale of the numbers having such a low ratio is interesting.
But my intuition says that in physics constants are scattered in a sort of logarithmic way, i.e. the orders of magnitude are uniformly scattered in some range. So small ratios between such constants not impossibly rare.
I may be full of shit though!
