  • Nowadays, anything "unlimited" is highly likely to be fake. There's just too much potential for abuse and nobody is going to finance that.

    Cursor is also US, so their terms and conditions can change at any moment without following any rules whatsoever if you're in the US. Probably for EU customers they might have a problem, because they require notification of changes and to give the user the option to reject the changes and cancel with no supplementary charge.

  • The ability to generate tritium within the reactor is crucial. A sustainable fusion energy system needs to produce more fuel than it consumes

    I clearly don't understand the fusion process. Deuterium is used to fuse and create tritium?

    The reactor core also features an electron-screened environment. This design reduces the energy needed to overcome the Coulomb barrier between particles, which lowers required fusion temperatures by several million degrees and allows for higher performance in a compact size.

    What's this "electron screened environment" they are talking about? They can't purge all electrons from molecules when they enter can they? That would make the molecule instable. But it sounds like they are doing something similar in order to reduce the temperature required for fusion.

  • The comparisons you're making are off base and it feels like you're mocking something you don't understand, while doing so with a lot of confidence. I'd suggest you either read an article, watch a video, or read the ActivityPub spec's intro. It isn't long and should help you understand the basics. Then you can move on the ForgeFed spec which is the ActivityPub extension for source forges. And you can always ask an LLM to summarise it for you if you really don't understand.

  • Git is already inherently distributed and automagically mirroring to other remotes is generally like three lines in any CI syntax (and there is probably a precommit hook for it too).

    Git is, but what about everything else? When you clone a project on gitlab or github, does it come with all the issues, discussions, MRs, and so on?

    I can see a LOT of security issues with not having a centralized source of truth on what the commit hashes should be and so forth.

    That's what signed commits are for. Also, pull/merge requests and issues are sent to the origin instance, just like in the fediverse. Like now, you made a comment on a post on Fediverse@lemmy.world through your instance lemmy.zip. The same would happen with your comments, pull/merge requests, issue reports, and so on. There's no need for a "central authority".

  • LKML: The end boss of kernel development

    Contributing to Linux was my first time interacting with a mailing list, at least for the purpose of sharing and reviewing code. I thoroughly hated the entire process. I tried in vain to write about my experience in a constructive manner, but it always turned into an unhinged rant, so I gave up. In summary, I think that sending and reviewing patches via email is exactly as insane as it sounds.

    That's the worst part but kconfig doesn't sound much better. Even if I had time, I wouldn't try contributing to the kernel for those 2 reasons alone.

    It is great that he got to the point he is now. Kudos for pervering.

  • “As should now be clear, this ruling does not stand for the proposition that Meta’s use of copyrighted materials to train its language models is lawful. It stands only for the proposition that these plaintiffs made the wrong arguments and failed to develop a record in support of the right one,” the ruling reads.

  • I still don't understand why something so unstable and far from ready had to be put into the kernel upstream. How did Kent manage that? Is he really that good with words? Reading his messages on LKML, it really doesn't seem so. No-one is a god programmer, but was his code so convincing, his practices so good, his testing so thorough, that it being unstable could be ignored?

  • And now we have a new streaming service 🤔 Really nice.

    I was thinking that by now, we should have enough bandwidth to stream webcams straight to each other without HLS or WebRTP or whatever. Just make the device available over a port or, as you did, cat it to another PC and voilà. Actually, why don't we stream raw camera feeds?

  • The penny drops. Or as the Germans would say "Der Groschen ist gefallen".

    What a surprise to think that reusing existing code instead of reinventing the wheel everytime would be beneficial and superior. It's like management is discovering the value of collaboration after wpouting their "synergy" crap for decades.
