They're doing "how millenials killed the fabric softener industry" (which still exists???) articles about gen z, now?

What will they say about gen alpha when their turn comes? That they killed the LLM industry because they aren't using the overlord-prescribed quantity of slop?

Hell yeah. Though I do always wonder if such entities mark themselves as targets for AI scraping. For instance, Wikipedia is also committed to banning slop articles. But that just means for any AI scraper it just becomes a reliable source of quality training data. So Wikipedia volunteers have to expend a lot of time and resources determining if something is slop and getting rid of it, all so that the slop trainers can come in and create the next version of the slop engine used to spam Wikipedia...

Anyway... whatever. Good for Codeberg!

100% this.

If every software maker generalized the principle of unused ram is wasted ram, I would be allowed to keep only one program open on my computer. Because each application must consume all of it for… I don’t know. Showing me a webview of a text box that has a glowing ring for no reason or something stupid like that.

This isn’t even getting into how cache locality in memory is a performance consideration, or how every software maker is EXTERNALIZING their costs onto users, making us buy more capable hardware to keep up with their software.

All so I can do the same shit I did 10 years ago: send messages, view pictures and videos.

MIT and BSD are the corporate friendly licenses that say you can take my code and use it and even make it proprietary, as well. So long as you provide attribution, do whatever you want.

If that’s fine by you then choose that license. You can read little summaries here but be advised this page is owned by GitHub and they have an interest in seeing MIT and BSD adoption, so the language they use subtly reflects that IMO https://choosealicense.com/licenses/
