@sabmes@mastodon.social @grote Alpha means it has not yet reached beta.
Software lifecycle path: pre-alpha -> alpha -> beta -> release candidate -> stable.
@itsfoss Vibe coding implies not looking at the code, which is a bad idea. AI programming assistants have improved and are now usable, but they still make plenty of mistakes. As with other generative AI, you need to verify the outputs.
@RichRARobi @noelreports He's not saying that. He's saying that if a country supplies weapons to Iran, its exports to the US will be tariffed.
@OndrejZizka @arstechnica Google plans to block all apps from "unverified" developers, no matter where they come from. F-Droid would also be affected.
@icd Hej, może już o tym wiecie, ale nie widzę Waszego podpisu pod listem otwartym [1], więc piszę.
Otwartość Androida jest zagrożona. Google zamierza zablokować wszystkie aplikacje, których deweloperzy nie poddadzą się procesowi weryfikacji. Dotyczy to nie tylko apek ze Sklepu Play, lecz wszystkich, nieważne skąd są zainstalowane. Więcej info i co robić (w tym gdzie zgłosić): https://keepandroidopen.org/pl/

@muminpappa @EUCommission @pasci_lei @epicenter_works Good idea. TL;DR "instead of tying online interactions of everyone to their identity, we simply tie the devices of children to their age group"
@noelreports I love Russian equipment losses.
@noelreports I suspect he's supporting Orban because Trump asked him to.
@Kurosetii @echo_pbreyer I believe good because there was a push to extend it but there is some opposition, so no decision for now.
@noelreports I have a feeling that even if Iran would agree to send its uranium abroad, it would prefer to send it literally anywhere except to the US.
@zaufanatrzeciastrona Czyli zamiast pisać posty, trzeba prosić LLMy, żeby pisały je za nas w cudzym stylu? O tempora, o mores!
🧐 Google’s plan would mean that all personal data of #FreeSoftware app developers on Android would end up with #Google, even apps distributed outside the Play Store, by forcing developers to register and hand over ID.
❌️ It raises barriers for small and volunteer projects, like @fdroidorg, and increases the risk of surveillance, censorship, and arbitrary bans against privacy‑protecting and critical apps.
@noelreports Ukraine didn't bomb the pipeline. Russia did.
@noelreports They are not mercenaries if they officially join Ukrainian armed forces. Russia does the exact same thing, accepting foreigners into their military.
Now, the Wagner group members were actual mercenaries because they weren't a part of any military.
@eff Some companies implement E2E, but badly. Maybe the software controlling the keys is proprietary or downloaded each time from a web server. Maybe company stores unencrypted or encrypted-with-weak-passwords backups of the data supposedly encrypted by E2E (hello WhatsApp).
