No, they definitely don’t care about what individual users think. They want to make the cheapest shows possible that get views. This is why they cancel shows people love. Not enough people love them. It’s not about making “good” content. It

I dont think they care about what your opinion is.

Yeah, sorry, my point is that simply copy/pasting a press release isn’t satisfying my curiosity.

I am unsatisfied with the reporting about why this is happening. The article explanation has almost no substance. What are the specific details?

yeah, I'm not sure what your goal is pedantically picking apart my argument when the subject at hand is clearly not "open source". love xkcd though. :P

I vehemently disagree. There's no source and it's not open, the licenses are often abysmal too.

open source gives you freedom to read/edit/learn from the source code. Open weights don't let you read/edit/learn from the source. open wights have more in common with traditional binary distribution of software, al

You can choose to use the wrong words all you want. Doing so intentionally is an interesting choice.

This is not open source; you mean open weight. These models are the antithesis of FOSS. Is it better than hosted models from other big labs? Yes, but not by much from a freedom perspective. especially considering the texts these were traine

Open source != open weight. Big difference and it bugs me that nobody seems to care about using the right words in only this context.

He’s asking you to elaborate as to why you say it’s not a big deal. Claims with reasoned arguments are more productive. Otherwise you’re just shouting hot takes without any backing. Show your work.

They’re talking about having personas for different purposes. Very simplified Example: Only talking about topic XYZ over tor with good opsec; talking about topic ABC openly.

No, it very much depends on the application, what you're trying to do. Different tools for different jobs. Don't conflate.

To me, BYOC will always mean "bring your own computer", which is amusing in this context.

I don’t have any data on that because chromium derivatives aren’t installed, haha. It’s not a matter of “does it work”. It’s philosophical.

Advertising companies shouldn’t be in the browser business. It’s a really bad conflict of interest. Chromium is a mistake. Firefox is pretty great. But IMO they have some poor ux defaults that make it unappealing to random people who simply

The same companies who have allowed this to happen all stand to benefit from regulatory capture. Yup.

most people aren't hn readers. broadcast tv is far from useless in 2026, that's how many normies watch tv.

I choose to accept reality. Until someone can do it, it hasn’t been done. Once that happens, this will cease being vaporware. The bubble is filled with vapors and those who drank the koolaide can’t seem to get themselves to accept.

Are clients and server FOSS? If so, advertise that. Personally, I’m not interested in another platform that isn’t.

How's it "quite short sighted"? Are you saying the math _does_ make sense? if so, how?

I think it’s worth pointing out that the “strategic partners” of this organization, those who fund this standard, have a commercial interest in selling curriculum materials based on the standard.

I have, maybe you should too. Other than stating it’s not a 501c3, I haven’t heard a compelling argument. I think it’s OK that Linus gets paid to do what he does. Everyone here definitely benefits from this non profit organization. It’s ok
