MIT gives YOU more freedom
After years of debate about licenses for my own software (that only I use...), my philosophy has been boiled down to this: MIT for libraries. GPL for programs.
This way, other developers can freely use your library, and your program remains free.
XDG gang, rise up!
Also, I know that this community and dot-files in general are Unix based, but this holds true for Windows development as well. You should be putting app files in the users' %APPDATA% directory, not their user folder. It's probably even more important since Windows doesn't autohide dot files.
The article doesn’t list the infected site. So, if you want to keep yourself safe by avoiding it, well… fuck you, I guess.
Edit: just skimmed through the original Group-IB report and they redacted the name of the site. Not the article’s fault that millions of people are still in danger to this malware.
Wow. Since you didn't list the prices, I went to the links to check them out. Only $15-$20 to get a fully customized set of playing cards? That's way less than I expected and I think I came away with some Xmas ideas.
However, before deleting an article, CNET reportedly maintains a local copy, sends the story to The Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine, and notifies any currently employed authors that might be affected at least 10 days in advance.
People are freaking out so bad about this story. They're doing the right thing and archiving it before deletion. Settle down.
How many CNET articles from 2004 are you reading that you're getting this angry about it?
Not gonna lie, I never even noticed there were ads. They all seem to be links to other Addons by that creator.
If all ads were that unobtrusive and related to the content I probably wouldn’t even feel the need to use an ad blocker.
It’s not like this is unheard of for Addon creators anyway. A link to the website, or a “See our other projects” link is perfectly normal for Addons/open source software. I think you’re blowing this out of proportion.
Not exactly. The poultry family includes other fowl/birds, including turkey and duck.
WEI can potentially be used to impose restrictions on unlawful activities on the internet, such as downloading YouTube videos and other content, ad blocking, web scraping, etc.
Not one of those things is illegal.
Some are against a site’s TOS and some are outright fine.
Yeah, but the range is 2025-2090. With that kind of range, I don’t think it even makes sense to focus on the 2025 part.
It's an internal message to employees of Reddit. As someone who's been in the corporate world for a long time, I've seen some variation of this message many times. Economic downturn, bad press, low sales, losing expected incoming cash... there are a lot of catalysts for this style of message.
Most messages we're seeing are from users, who want Reddit to crash and burn or just do what the masses want, or whatever. But, on the other side is a bunch of people who may be worried about how this whole thing will affect their livelihood. Even if Reddit stays up another 20 years and not everyone loses their job, what scale will it be? Will Reddit fire some amount of their workforce to make up for lost income? Will I be someone who gets fired?
These are the thoughts that this message is intended to address.
Fuck stock market analysts. In one sentence it’s “they don’t innovate.” In the next sentence it’s, “they innovate, but I want them to do it faster.”
How often can you expect a single company to disrupt entire markets? These expectations are not sustainable.
