Im sorry, but what integrity are we talking oft?

Oh, yes it can. The license only changes what other people than the owner may do. It's the rights and conditions they give you.

For most projects that doesn't matter because there are several owners of the code base. Every single person who contributed can enforce these rights on their part. However, to contribute to Zed you have to sign a cla. Signing away all rights and ownership of your contribution. So they have all the rights and can do whatever they want.

They could close source everything tomorrow without any consequence and sell you a feature you made yourself.

The Problem with open source is, it relies on self exploitation. Most OS Dev don't get paid, so they've got to work another jib full time. This leads to a lot of burned out devs from their project and that is a real problem.

Before a project becomes self sufficient on donationa, it needs to become really big. Most projects simply never reach that scale.

Its a config option. Add ILoveCandy in the options.

How are they connected

Its timing based. When piped a script, bash executes each line completly before taking the next line from the input. Curl has a limited output buffer.

  1. Operation that takes a long time. Like a sleep, or if you want it less obvious. A download, an unzip operation, apt update, etc.
  2. Fill the buffer with more bash commands.
  3. Measure on the server if at some point curl stops downloading the script.
  4. Serve a malicious payload.

They can even serve a different file for curl vs curl|bash

Has the same vibes as anthropic creating a C compiler which passes 99% of compiler tests.

That last percent is really important. At least that last percent are some really specific edge cases right?

Description:
When compiling the following code with CCC using -std=c23:

bool is_even(int number) {
   return number % 2 == 0;
}

the compiler fails to compile due to booltrue, and false being unrecognized. The same code compiles correctly with GCC and Clang in C23 mode.

Well fuck.

Not every country is as lax as america. In Germany is often 3 months. On the other side a really good reason is required to fire someone.

In 2024 not it did cost 554 Mio€ for powering down solar and wind, while they were usable.

Meanwhile in Bavaria the CSU is sabotaging the creation oft Wind power for example. In 2023 they stated they want to build 1000 new wind power plants. In 3 years they managed 30. In BW, which is half as big, it was 2024 27. That same year 154 plants went online in NRW.

Yeah, we need a better grid. But it would help if more renewable sources would be build every where. That would also reduce the cost.

They are expensive if you don't build the grid to transfer the power to where it is needed. Then if some part of the country has a lot more than the other part you get to stop the renewables in one part and run Gas and Coal Power in the other to make up for. So younger to pay it twice.

You know, exactly how the CXU fucked it up in Germany.
