Sorry what? Tech billionaires don't have to enable the free speech of sexually harassing a child online.
And if your argument is that sexually harassing a child online is "free speech" - and that's the best argument you have - that's not a good argument.
If only we could hold social media's billionaires accountable or something. Unfortunately, that is impossible, and we can and should never imagine a better world.
(It's kind of interesting that in a thread about Flock surveillance, people are talking about destroying the nodes. While in a thread about a girl getting abused online, there's a whole lot more defeatism all around.)
Could you replace the insides with a node?
Google has allowed you to do RCS encrypted messaging since Android 10. But isn't this all still on their proprietary infrastructure, using their proprietary apps, where we just have to trust these two corporations?
There's nothing more American than destroying a Flock camera
Based on the content of that article alone (especially near the bottom), I don't think it's run by a racist at all. Can confirm via their social media presence.
And the people complaining about "insufferable" critics of AI, and assuming all criticism is "knee-jerk", are themselves contributing to the cycle of negativity.
I don't think "why not" is a great response in general - especially when the same developer also invested time in Swift that was ultimately wasted.
Touche; the two things aren't similar under the hood, but the user interface (being controlled directly from the browser) definitely is. And while Microsoft's sales pitch is deceptive, it's clearly a competitor to offerings from companies like Brave, Opera, DuckDuckGo, every Android app that offers a "free VPN" baked into a Chrome shell.
I think my statement came across as more alarmist than I meant it. E.g.
Is it a good idea to just translate something from C++ like that? It seems technically feasible but there's something "off" about the whole thing. Apparently you can translate C++ directly to Rust, but anecdotal statements claim that while Rust supports C++ conventions, you wouldn't typically build a Rust app using them.
Looking back previously, the developer originally talked about switching to Swift, then decided not to switch to Swift.
And in the past, "Ladybird devs have been very vocal about being 'anti-rust' (I guess more anti-hype, where Rust was the hype)."
It all just suggests rudderlessness from the developers right now. Must Rust be a priority? Did Swift need to be?
"I coded this with hundreds of handcrafted AI prompts."
"That sounds hazardous, but did you test it?"
"I had multiple AIs test it!"
