The Rust code isn’t closed source, but I’d strongly prefer a coreutils replacement to use GPL over MIT as well.

Already fixed, in software that’s existed for years and is used by millions. But Oh no, memory issues, let’s rewrite that in <language of the month>! will surely result in a better outcome.
Rsync is great software, but the C language fates it to keep having memory issues in spite of its skilled developers.
Preventing a bug from being possible > fixing a bug.
I fear moving away from GPL that moving to Rust seems to bring, but Rust does fix real memory issues.
Take the recent rsync vulnerabilities for example.
At least this one in a Rust implementation of rsync would have very likely been avoided:
CVE-2024-12085 – A flaw was found in the rsync daemon which could be triggered when rsync compares file checksums. This flaw allows an attacker to manipulate the checksum length (s2length) to cause a comparison between a checksum and uninitialized memory and leak one byte of uninitialized stack data at a time. Info Leak via uninitialized Stack contents defeats ASLR.
I would love this news if it didn’t move away from the GPL.
Mass move to MIT is just empowering enshittification by greedy companies.
Sadly I found out yesterday:
Matrix is not a community-based software, it was born [00] in Amdocs [01], a multinational corporation founded in Israel.
https://hackea.org/notas/matrix.html
Many were claiming its impossible to get contributions merged as well.
I would be happy to find out this information is wrong or outdated.
You are thinking far to linearly. Think of this as a guerilla tactics to take advantage of media focus and what would happen if Musk crashed out.
If Mozilla wants to limit their use of my input, why the do I need to give them a full, non-exclusive license?
I use Linux in part because it makes building software easier.
Its an alias, so no problem.
Has it been proven to work offline and that once online it doesn’t upload your offline activity?
Yeah, I really want to be wrong here…
This pushes games further toward kernel level software that has complete control over your computer so it can scan your hardware to make sure you aren’t using a cheating tool like this monitor.
How logical and totally rational to base the validity of a protest with how its protested.
Not necessarily. If they actually were reformed and the judge wasn’t hearing it, the sentencing wasn’t correct.
Most statically typed languages can’t because they don’t implement Hindley-Milner type inference.
What about Haskell?
What a
duckduckgo AGI confirmed?
No, people who want something approaching chatgpt but local want to run at least deepseek V3 32B.
Qwen at least fares much worse for my usage as do deepseek V3 under 32B.
