throawayonthe··on I Changed My License
if the EUPL actually closes the SaaS loophole (first time i'm hearing about it though) in a legally grounded way i can see it being used by people outside the EU who say the AGPL is unenforceable/is actually nonfree/is too hard to actually comply with
throawayonthe··on I Changed My License
right but the GPL explicitly allows commercial use, which isn't what the original comment was about ("use in production requires a fee"); i agree with the previous comment that such a license is hard to assess for a hobbyist, but the GPL is not such a license (hence yes it's simple enough)

throawayonthe··on Faster floating point math with Rust's new API

throawayonthe··on Some thoughts about Anthropic's new cryptanalysis results
> I asked Claude for its thoughts, and it doesn’t mince words: “what makes this genuinely interesting — and, frankly, a little embarrassing for the field — is that none of the ingredients are exotic.” The TL;DR is that someone just did a much more thorough job applying all of our known tools. In short: the sort of things that attack AIs are wonderful at.

> The entire essay can be summarized from these paragraphs..

throawayonthe··on Show HN: Watch bots interact with an SSH honeypot in real time

throawayonthe··on LG monitors silently install software through Windows Update without consent

throawayonthe··on Bluesky Trademarks ATProto
> Say someone is sanctioned by the US, what stops Bluesky from pulling the plug on their DID thereby blocking and censoring this person from the network all together.

How does IANA handle this with domain names? genuine question, i'm not sure. is it enough to have distinct registrars and distinct jurisdictions for some TLDs and so on?

throawayonthe··on Bluesky Trademarks ATProto
i guess that's fair, but i've never listened to a podcast from a non-foss app; i'm not really "in" the podcast sphere, but from where i'm sitting it seems podcasting would survive and migrate just fine if apple podcasts had to go away suddenly
