@KetDarkDragon I think this comes from another effect made by the same developer, which uses some unspecified AI trained on pixel art to generate *palettes.* Even in that case, I *seriously* doubt that AI was trained off user-uploaded data.
@KetDarkDragon There have been rumors that the HEISEI-VHS web app scrapes the images uploaded to it and uses them to train AI--as far as I can tell, these rumors are all *completely false.*
@taviso@UK_Daniel_Card@InsiderPhD@nfinf5 I'm getting concerned about this slowly-coalescing group of developers who've built themselves an echo chamber and convinced themselves they're god's gift to software, with a very specific culture-war slant. Not good to see projects like FFmpeg fall into that crowd.
@ngriffin_uk@Cloudflare Not sure if this bit was added to the article after your tweet, but:
> Contrary to what is stated on the https://t.co/XxNn8cIJqT website, Cloudflare has never recommended the https://t.co/XxNn8cIJqT service or authorized their use of Cloudflareโs name on their website.
@meijer_s@TArch64 I believe Node 22 finally supports require()ing ESM modules from CJS ones, albeit under a flag (https://t.co/T2PDAwW5oB); probably should've landed a lot earlier.
@marcysutton Wait, ESLint? I got the sense from the original discussion that this was about using old versions of Node as a proxy for older browsers, and ensuring that things like axobject-query could run in said older browsers. Can you elaborate?
@kibertoad@passle_@43081j It's actually just a fork of the original "through" package that seems identical other than the dependencies he snuck in. Could just switch back to that.
@_jessicasachs@dmitriid@ljharb Please reach out to as many people as possible who have handed maintainership to him. They're an important voice--one that has gone unheard even on their own repositories considering the pace of many of the changes. I worry that many of them were not fully informed.
