Hey, @EUCommission, fuck you too.

On Wednesday, EU Member States approved a change to the GDPR that would put the profit-making interests of OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta and SpaceX over European's fundamental right to data protection. According to the approved text, processing personal data “in the context of AI” should automatically be lawful. In particular, Big Tech would be able to use all personal data collected over the past decades with virtually no restrictions, as long as this happens “in the context” of AI. Schrems: “Under the agreed text, the profits of AI companies would typically trump European’s fundamental right to privacy. This is nothing but a digital expropriation of Europeans.”

@aral @EUCommission idk why privacy is being centered here when ai is literally breaking down barriers for so many people. it feels kind of elitist to prioritize data laws over the fact that millions of people can now actually function and thrive because of these tools.

"Royalty Free" stuff is, in general, NOT "Free Culture" compatible. They put extra terms in that are incompatible with Creative Commons licenses and definitely hostile to making your work open source.
Avoid.
(I was reminded because some of those small archives of "free" sound effects are actually "Not That Free").

@hjwp Yeah, that raised an eyebrow for me, too.

We had a great time hacking on Matrix this week at the Matrix Conference! The @matrix folks are doing some great work and use Osprey, HMA, and soon Coop to do it!

For interpretable programming languages (e.g. Python), non-docker setups may be too difficult to maintain so developers simply don't bother. Any OS update on the user side may break their setup. Any library update on the maintainer side may break some user's setup. It never ends.

@Cassandra_Complex stupid work!
@hikari Don't worry, someone will vibe-code a RIIR by tomorrow and then demand to be hailed a saviour.

C-to-Rust already exists, fwiw. No idea how well it works on larger scale projects, though.
Can we just lock these dickheads in a room and give them all guns?
@aral no! Guns are bad! Better lock them in a metallic room under the Atacama's sun and forget about them.
@rolle oi!, en missään nimessä halunnut olla mitenkään riidanhakuinen! anteeksi, että olen tällainen. tietenkin luotan hyväntahtoisuutesi.
@fractalolivia 👍 Ei se mitään, en ottanut riidanhakuisuutena. En aina itse ymmärrä mitä kysytään, tai ymmärrän helposti väärin, tai aivoni tuppaavat ajattelemaan, että minua tai toteutuksiani ollaan taas kritisoimassa, koska algoritmit ja tekoäly ovat arka paikka täällä fedissä ja jos suosit kumpaakaan, sinut joukkolynkataan. Mutta all good.
Welcome to the weekend.
Why are you still wearing pants?

I've been with my girlfriend for 13 years. We have a house and two kids. We're not fussed about marriage, but the real reason I haven't proposed is because I have too many friends who'd think they should be my best man and I can't be bothered with the fallout.
@fesshole Uh, don't have one?
