When people say perl, they normally mean Perl 5. Perl 6 is now called Raku and is considered a different language.

You can search for communities across all federated instances by clicking on “All” in the communities page: https://lemmy.ml/communities?listingType=All

I should note that there’s also the option to simply save a post or comment (the star in the web interface). It can then be found under “Saved” on your user page.

I’m not a Nix user, but doesn’t Nix make both pip and venv obsolete in a way? Nix is a package manager (which could be used to package anything including Python packages/modules) and also allows you to create environments that include only certain packages of certain versions.

I think they they reduced the content width in order to improve readability and it is possible to press a button to expand the content to use the full width of the available space. I just am a bit annoyed that the languages are hidden behind in a popup menu now, because a certain browser I have to use is unable to open that menu (but that’s more of the browser’s fault for not being fully conformant with the web standards (which to be honest I don’t see having the degree of simplicity/complexity that allows someone to easily write a web engine that’s fully conformant))

(pretty sure they are talking about the scary book that is the Communist Manifesto, which is visible in the picture. I think it is about a ghost haunting Europe or something)

I’m sorry, if I was being annoying.

I don’t think a license will prevent language models from using your post. If anything, you are allowing people to use your post for more stuff it couldn’t otherwise be used, since a license is you giving someone permission to use your work in a certain way, but if you don’t give a license, copyright law assumes that you haven’t given permission.

Wait until you learn about negative downvotes.

I wonder what sort of mitigations we can take to prevent such kind of attacks, wherein someone contributes to an open-source project to gain trust and to ultimately work towards making users of that software vulnerable. Besides analyzing with bigger scrutiny other people’s contributions (as the article mentioned), I don’t see what else one could do. There are many ways vulnerabilities can be introduced and a lot of them are hard to spot (especially in C with stuff like undefined behavior and lack of modern safety features) , so I don’t think “being more careful” is going to be enough.

I imagine such attacks will become more common now, and that these kind of attacks could become very appealing for governments.

Thanks!

I don’t live in the US, but also I use my own government’s weather data.

Where can I download it and under what conditions can I use it?

For anyone who was confused as I was about hearing of a new release of Netscape, this article is from 2000.

On another note, what other licenses do you lemmings know that impose more restrictions to prevent your software from being used for evil?

Weirdly OSI doesn’t classify the SSPL as an open-source license because it doesn’t guarantee “the right to make use of the program for any field of endeavor”, calling it a fauxpen license. I don’t think the FSF has commented on the license, though I would be curious what they say about it.

I imagine they consider it to not give the right to make use of the program for any field of endeavor, because providing the source of the entire stack needed to run the service you provide makes it impossible for users to host their service on stuff like AWS, since it is proprietary.

A great way to learn would also be to write your own c programs and then disassemble or use the -S compiler flag to see the result of the compilation and play around with different optimizations levels (-O)

Are you in the All tab? You can also sort by most comments (that doesn’t take recent activity into account, but for that there are other sorts). If you are only finding dead communities, it probably means you have reached the end of lemmy and that there is nothing more to see.

Couldn’t scaled sort or new sort in the all tab already do that? There’s also the community browser. You can sort communities by different criteria there.
