I the short term. Who knows what the damage to the brand will cost them.

So it forces everyone to use more GitHub stuff?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but this means I now need to submit to GitHub Security Advisor to get my security fix out ASAP?

If I manage an open source program like this, my job is to write the code and docs, publish it somewhere and maybe make some changes to make it more portable. That's it!

It's the distro's job to package and integrate this software with the rest of the system, to make it easier for their users.

I have 1677 packages installed. I absolutely _do not_ want to go to 1677 places to install or look for the latest version.

Via a web browser? And the default password is ChangeMe ? :O

Caddy can also proxy to unix sockets !

The US and Israel never had the right to attack Iran in the first place

I think this could crash the stock market: Their TAM is now a small percentage of what it was, with all the second and third otder effects that follow from that

Maybe, or maybe they would take this opportunity to gain a lot of power and influence around the world.

Just because you're not paying per token or per month does not mean they are doing it for free.

it is unlikely that open source models' capability will ever surpass frontier models

Sure about that? Would you invest in products almost no-one can buy?

otoh, maybe China stop releasing their best models

Sales and Marketing: $5.73 billion .. That is, OpenAI spent 44% of their revenue on sales and marketing!

Anyone know what they are spending this on? Can't remember seeing one OpenAI ad.. Is it just pr and influencers? Ads in the US?

The frontier labs have fantastic margin on inference.

Source?

The OpenAi filing will be very interesting indeed.

("trust me bro" statements from sama et al does not count, since I don't trust them)

Edit:

The best argument I have seen look at the price of inference from smaller companies running open models. And assuming they are profitable-ish. Their prices are lower than the OpenAi and Anthropics best models, so maybe they do make money on inference (ignoring all other costs)

Then can we also stop giving credit to CEOs for the products their company makes?

Absolutely! CEOs does many and difficult things, but they don't build anything

Interesting, this went Tanstack -> Nx Console -> GitHub

I wonder how many other secrets and tokens have been stolen, just waiting to be abused to publish a malicious version of.. something.

IMO, the problem is [1] that actually rotation all secrets just because you might have installed a compromised packe is a huuge PITA. So it's tempting to take it lightly and hope for the best. And even if you really try, it's easy to miss one.

1: in addition to "running code from whereever" with little sandboxing

No, I don't have to be okay with that.

It's like oneshotting an app with Lovable or cc and bragging about what "I made"

Let's see, System 76, previously Dell and Samsung.

All the pretty much the smallest and lightest I could find. So not fantastic, but good enough. For me, battery life is much lower on the list than "small and lightweight" and "works well with Linux".

You've essentially made a novelty song

Disagree. Gp didn't make anything.

I told a waiter in a restaurant what I wanted to eat, and I got it. But I did not make the food : )

He wasn't the only one being boo'd for AI though. I heard a podcast where they played clips from at least 3 or 4 different ones

huh? I've been running Arch exclusively on my laptops for at least 7 years

I get your point, but GP is right: You said "Default install", not enabled by default.

The default install is actually very useful, and includes a lot, like parent said. Having run OpenBSD in the past, I found the their versions of things were often superior, at least for small setups (and some of them for large installs as well.. probably : )

Agreed, I'm very curious as to how this could happen.

But TheRegister did reach out to Google and they have not replied yet: https://www.theregister.com/off-prem/2026/05/20/google-cloud...

I see a lot of learned helplessness around this stuff. People managed fleets of servers before the cloud you know, it's not impossible.

Cloud has pros and cons, both for small and large setups. I've spent ca 10 years working with GCP, and as the article says, there's a lot of complexity in these systems as well. And the network cost.. yikes

they do, at least to some degree, but their comments are dead. You'll see them if you turn on show-dead somewhere

their comments are dead, probably related to it being a new account

They don't really say. My guess would be something embarrassing, and that's why they are keeping it to themselves. Maybe passwords in Drive og Gmail. Or just passwordless login links (like sibling said)

I think you're right that it would be hard to differentiate.

I don't think there are many actual experts though, experts as in the people your developers call when they can't figure it out themselves. But the marked is probably small-ish, and there's a large effort to become a real expert.

My take on it is more around domain speciality, than a purely technical focus.

Yeah, I think that is good advice. You just need "an in", somewhere to start.

Become an expert in 1 thing

Any suggestions to what that could be?

I'm a backend developer looking to specialize in something with a clear demand.

Top-of-the-head ideas are things like: Kubernetes, Postgres, Caddy, Self-hosting, Go or Google Cloud

Obviously, one has to try to gauge the demand before spending too much time on it

All laws are "just a bunch of words some people wrote down". So what's your point?

"International law" is just shorthand. If you read about it, you'll see how it can work, and the proponents are not as dumb as you seem to think

The US this week invoked God when bombing people

Of course, Iran does to, but let's not pretend everything would be peaceful without Islam

Thunderbird is great <3 use it daily, for all my work and personal mail. Donating
