Congrats on the payday :)

Do you think Anthropic might request you implement private APIs?

This is an interesting question; not to be too naive, but are there examples in the wild about this scenario? First I’ve heard of private APIs for something open source like this and my interest is piqued!

Vscode had private apis for copilot.

I think you should disclose that you work on the Google Chrome team in a post like this.

Yeah my bad; I was on the go. I'm on the Chrome team, I work on DevTools.

> [...] support Thunderbird is through donations

I doubt donations to MZLA Technologies Corporation will reach the Thunderbird project in any meaningful way.

They'll just use it to pay their executive salaries.

You are basing this statement on what data?

https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/donate is managed by MZLA, it has one open source product, Thunderbird. We pay a required Thunderbird trademark fee to the Mozilla Foundation and little more than that, which is captured in https://stats.thunderbird.net/#financials.

Or support radical activist groups unrelated to software or technology.

Absolutely bonkers.

Like?

I know people here don’t like Bryan Lunduke, but besides the opinions added, this is factual, sourced reporting.

That kinda proves they would spend it on executive salaries. As the spend on "radical groups" in the article is almost nothing compared to salaries of their management.

This article is from 2023. Recent years they’ve gone into decolonisation, Marxism, anti-capitalism and afro-centrism as well, just to mention a few.

No doubt though that the increase in executive salaries has been way beyond criticism as well.

Their finances seems a total mess and completely hijacked.

Perhaps factual - I can't say.

But it's a different company. EOM.

This is probably something that the platform HackerOne should implement. It can't be addressed on the project level.

Why?

I don't know if the link you posted answers the question, I get a blocked page ("You are visiting this page because we detected an unsupported browser"). You'd think a chromium-based browser would be supported but even that isn't good enough. I love open standards like html and http...

Edit: just noticed it goes to hackerone and not curl's own website. Of course they'd say curl can't solve payments on their own

DDG is only one piece in the privacy puzzle. I think the article doesn't make it clear enough that other pieces are necessary.

They will continue using the perpetual VMware licenses.

This article is just about buying support from another provider.

Obviously, right-click is for losers and you just have to drag and drop the folder icon from the title bar onto the Terminal app icon.

So cool! I wonder if I can use this software to plan an irrigation system for my garden.

Does the simulation also work on a smaller scale?

You can (I've used it to design an irrigation system in the Yucatan) but at small scale, a spreadsheet is probably sufficient.

At a smaller scale, the efficiencies gained from properly designing the system are not a major savings.

That said, if I had a garden with a big fountain I absolutely would try to model it in EPANET ;)

Just how fancy is your irrigation system?

I thought the same, but it's actually just the default Color Palette being applied. You can change it in the preferences.
