did microsoft just lock up a good chunk of open source behind a (stochastic (for now)) login wall?

this feels like it should violate the gpl, but i bet it doesn’t. truly devious.

that’s because they’re looting. everyone knows the jig is up, so it’s a smash-and-grab.

there aren’t a lot of nice places hiring foreign workers en mass, and meta, google, palantir, tormentnexus, etc, offer a chance at a better life for them and their families.

the major reason to make life a hell for as many people as possible is to have this kind of leverage on them.

historian fails to understand that the company “palantir” was named by someone who, in fact, knew exactly what it meant, and it excited him.

anyone else old enough to remember when the great promise of the internet was disintermediation?

good times

exactly. he spent 30 minutes calling the irish ignorant, but the words “gulf stream” never tickled his neurons.

the extra-irony is that up until the last 10-15 years, “gulf stream” is what everyone in the usa called it, too. hank’s just so tech-pilled he can’t see anything else.

ah yes, hank green who spent an entire video chastising the citizens of ireland for being ignorant of the amoc.

dude never even bothered to think people called it something else there.

hes always been a self-satisfied, arrogant knob

amtrak joe!

you gotta give the ai bros credit, they’ve managed to turn “there’s no such thing as bad publicity” into a multi-disciplinary corporate stratgy.

what else are you supposed to do when things aren’t done properly? it’s just common sense. not racist. the migrant crisis in europe proves that, surely. i just love to look across the pond at some of their creative ideas for how to deal with people who just refuse to do things the right way. if only we also had a large sea we could just let them drown in, instead of having to spend so much money after they get here. clever stuff there from enlightened europe!
