Some people working in big companies believe in the ideals of open source and convince their employers to allow open sourcing a project.
Employers get prestige (useful for the hiring funnel) and sometimes strategically disrupt competitors (e.g. Meta releasing Ollama)

So you'll have a beautifully designed system with rotting bones? A system constrained to the same patterns seen in training data. Not terrible, good enough.
I don't know, I don't doubt you're more productive. Broadly so. But the depth and rigor I think may be missing, as the article suggests.
As an aside, I suppose it's a good time for those nearing the end of their careers, those who no longer need to learn, to cash out and go all in on AI.

This sets off marketing BS alarm bells. All the cosignatories so very ovvoously have a vested interest in AI stocks / sentiment. Perhaps not the Linux foundation, although (I think) they rely on corporate donations to some extent.

Who really knows _that_ much about anything though? Few people are experts in a given topic. Although I see your point, I suppose more people would be good to recognise that, especially about themselves.
That said, this is a fairly general forum and (mostly) for entertainment purposes right?

You can get around that by spoofing safteynet stuff using Magisk. But yeah, it is a few more hoops to jump through and you need to be rooted which is itself not great for security.

Not that I disagree with your point. This is a place of intelligent discussion which could perhaps benefit Ukrainians better.

Just one data point, but I've had a hard time trusting then since reading a headphones section they had in the physical magazine quite a few years back. The number one rated headphone was the Bose QC3. Great noise cancellation and comfort, sure... But certainly not better audio quality than so many other products in that price range. All rock / metal sounded so muddy I had to return my pair within a few weeks.

If you've ever played with HackTheBox / TryHackMe (hacking playground) they provide VPN config details where you connect and can access all sorts of services, DBs etc to hack.
I imagine a similar solution could work for coding, networking etc training.
