The ai job and identity crisis is a crisis of ingrained taylorism. Toyotism perhaps made it to some parts of the productive system but never to mainstream culture.
@benz145 you don't need system sellers, they should improve discovery in radical ways. it's the same problem as literacy, good books already exist but people are not aware thus don't make the habit of reading.
the whole point of open source is to have a system that encourages people to share patches. these people are threatening the soup kitchen with a food safety inspection unless they get seconds.
there are many layers to the ffmpeg hate situation but fundamentally it's entitled corporate employees that treat open source as free or low cost consulting. you have no power over volunteers and it destroys entitled people.
donations to open source are donations, they aren't anything else. software is not a business by default, but this fills some people with impotence as they can't get coerce or bankroll the project. there's no implicit social contract other than what is stated in the license.
XR needs failures to improve. A steady slow growth is terrible for learning about something so fundamental like this. We need more people taking efforts seriously and disregarding the "best practices" or "what people like". Be the author of your failures or successes.
@Heaney555@Aidan_Wolf this is not true, if that was the case then launchers would be much simpler. we are in a bad middle ground. both systems can exist but none are being taken seriously nor custom launchers are allowed.
i don't know how theybmanaged to propagandize the water argument everywhere so fast. datacenters are nothing new yet suddenly people talk about "spending water"
This is crazy. My kids are being taught at school not to use ChatGPT and other AI tools because they use too much water. What the hell are we teaching our kids?
