Sorry for my ignorance, but can someone please explain what I'm looking at here?
Seems like the link that you posted is about computer related jobs lost due to AI.
I am sorry, could you explain this in a bit more detail?
Among other sources, this is the earliest article I could find:

This IA article is by the same Jason Scott of http://textfiles.com/jason/

Perhaps the change that I'm most excited about is official support for using sdboot instead of grub (something I have been manually configuring for the last 7 years):

The linked article doesn't seem to link to the documentation page, with all the change logs, so here you go:

I have been using Fedora Sericea since it came out (it's basically Fedora Silverblue, but uses Sway-wm instead of Gnome-wm). The system is actually pretty usable, and you don't really need to reboot after each rpm-ostree install command (`rpm-ostree live-apply` takes care of it via systemd-based overlay).

So this works:

./derasterize.c

If it's just a launcher you're looking for, I'd recommend https://kisslauncher.com
It is indeed a bit too long. A few tips:

- Graphs of benchmark results would be neat to have. Remember to put the code and graphs as a sort of TL;DR in that blog post. - I skimmed the code; there's no clear instructions as to how I'd use it for my own projects. Perhaps work on a CMake / Autoconf config for a library build? - The repository itself might not have enough visibility due to being self hosted. While I do love self-hosting, maybe posting a read-only mirror on GitHub would bring in more exposure?

Back in the day, the demo-scene was rife with Easter eggs, often with a personal touch.

It always puts a smile on my face when I come across clever ones like this, even though that's becoming rarer these days. I guess that's due to concerns about 'hidden code' in commercial codebases, which third-party license holders might be skeptical about.

The actual 'brains' repo is [1], which is MIT licensed.

That is easily solved by looking at a capture from the beginning of this month, where indeed, the disclaimer is absent:
