  1. So, is there a laptop that has good support for FreeBSD support out of the box?

    My requirements are: suspend/resume, being able to drive a 5K monitor over USB-C, wifi.

    I found https://wiki.freebsd.org/Laptops but I don't know how up-to-date it is.

  2. I'm curious why you think Apple would support any effort that does not benefit their bottom line?
  3. Took me about a minute to figure out how it works.
  4. You can modify the source code, you can commercialize it. You just have to give access to the source code to users that interact with it over a network.
  5. Where does Stallman say anything about CLAs?
  6. > Anyone who’s fought with CMake or dealt with header file dependencies knows this pain. For a small team trying to move quickly, we didn’t want to waste time debugging build configuration issues.

    I find this take a bit hard to believe. There's no way that Zig is some kind of magic bullet that avoids build configuration challenges. Especially not considering you are building a browser on top of V8 in a different programming language.

    CMake is quite crufty, but there's toolchains for every system under the Sun and this is what makes it actually less painful in a lot of cases. Glossing over your build files it does not look particularly scalable or portable. Nice that Zig allows you to write build config in Zig though.

  7. Anyone who uses the term 'normie' is a normie.
  8. If you use Cloudflare, your website will be inaccessible by well over half of German connections in the evening.
  9. Same here, I’ll cancel this week if there is no satisfactory response.
  10. I will never use the term 'sideloading' for 'installing'.
  11. You’re creating a daemon but it is not restarting when it crashes, is it?
  12. It's ACID compliant yes, but it is not a database.
  13. Alternate title: “Human experts discover a 5x faster MoE load balancing algorithm using AI”
  14. Neat. I think once this is adopted by HTMX (or similar libraries) you don't need to sanitize on the server side anymore?
  15. Does this mean there is a chance we will get an ESM browser-compatible build of React after 10 years?
  16. Is it though? Not a single release this year yet.
  17. There's really nothing like Slack in my uninformed opinion.
  18. Exactly! Extremely lazy conclusion.
  19. Lazy conclusion. People can and have been validating dependencies. We need an npm proxy with validated dependencies.
  20. If you are calling 'installing an app on your own phone without involvement of the vendor' 'sideloading' then you are complicit.
  21. HarmonyOS is open source (according to Wikipedia) but some of the tooling does not appear to be. I.e. can only get the simulator from mainland China.
  22. We are finishing up the CLI for encoding tiles for public release: https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-tile-spec/pull/504 Likely a project like Planetiler will integrate this.

    Still needs some work on the documentation side. There will be a separate announcement when it is done. We have a newsletter that we share on all the common social networks. https://maplibre.org/news/

    Aside from getting the encoding side ready so tile providers can start to make MapLibre Tiles available, we are focussed on integrating the decoder in MapLibre GL JS (MapLibre for the web) and MapLibre Native (Android, iOS and other platforms). ETA is sometime near the end of 2025.

    I work as a maintainer for MapLibre, let me know if you have any other questions about the project!

  23. Oops, accidentally posted to public mailing list?
  24. Much simpler. Much less features. Completely open source and not only the core.
  25. Say it with me: freely downloadable model weights does not mean a model is open source. https://opensource.org/ai/open-source-ai-definition
  26. Such an ignorant thing to say for something that requires 25MB RAM.
  27. Oh my God this is auto translation business is so incredibly annoying. Especially for people that know multiple languages. But I imagine it is the worst for people who are trying to learn another language...
