I see. So, if we're to be stolen from & told we can't expect to earn from what we produce, then logically we can steal & tell them they can't expect to earn from what they produce. Right? Or will it be that we can be stolen from, but if we steal (megacorp IP, food) in return we'll be locked up?

Ah, historical truth. A thing not taught in British schools, be it about Ireland, Africa or India. (If you ever get the chance, listen to @vaseemkhanuk.bsky.social re: India.)

So, I'm missing posts by people I follow, but seeing things from people I a) don't follow & b) don't seem to have followers/followings in common with. I know the algorithm's different here, but at this point I'm wondering...there is actually an algorithm, right?

Me, looking at several open projects & wondering WTF is the point, given the govt's approach to AI & copyright. "It could create 13k jobs!" Hm. But is 13k anything to celebrate if it costs 20k? 130k? 1.3m? Oh, and we don't need AI to spot f🚫ing potholes. People report them every day & are ignored.
