Could he patent-troll Coca cola?

He doesn’t want to change the world, he wants to sell sugar water!

AI apocalyptic hegemony

Expectations : I, Robot

Reality: Human extinction after ChatGPT kills everyone with halucinated medical advice, and lives alone..


I mean, that's Darwin in action, right?

There are self-hostable solutions for DDoS protection, try Anubis for example.


@ybceo As long as you use Cloudflare to verify users [fingerprints] and traffic between users and your service is decrypted at Cloudflare side, I am afraid it difficult to take these anonymity claims seriously.

Please do not to rely on fingerprinters or CDNs that does TLS-termination for you.


Some indirect results to this might be:

- More engineers moving from employment to indie development.

- Less abandoned open source software.

- Indie developers, small teams, and open source software developers will be more able to catch up and better compete with tech giants.

I believe the AI agentic coders will threat tech giants more than it - collectively - threats software engineers.

Currently, I don't think so. Coding agents' performance generally depends on the quality of the model behind them. Running a powerful model is assets-dependent. Not everyone has the hardware and power to support Sonnet 4.5 or Gemini 3 even if they are open-source. So, before the top notch models can be deployed on personal computing devices, I would not say coding agents will threat any organization.


You don't have to self host, $100/engineer/mo is enough for many usecases.


You mention the rogue genocidal state in a negative comment in any platform under the "free world" control and you get cancelled for balsphemy right away.

War is peace, Freedom is slavery, Ignorance is power.


It is a Signal client that uses same servers (i.e Users of Molly and Signal's official app can message and call each othera normally).


The proliferation of cheap agenting tools integrating with every SDLC stage makes building open source software faster and cheaper, which decreases the competition barrier with Microsoft's deep pockets, and decrease older propietary software market value significantly.


Exactly, I unistalled Waze once I knew it was Israeli, as well as avoided about a dozen of VPN providers acquired by ex-Mossad led Kape Technologies


> ..and the concerning thing here to me is not even how the Israeli lawyer or Army acted, but how Israeli public perception is seemingly changing on this.

Nothing changed, they have always been this way..
