Nope, against.
I don’t see why this rethoric would need any special rules versus any other arguments that may be made in bad faith. Trolling in general should be moderated, but the rules shouldn’t differ from topic to topic. If a discussion is good it is good, if it is bad it is bad. The topic and the view points are irrelevant to that.
I started using Zed as my daily IDE and I really like the direction they’re taking it. I know a lot of developers (especially here on Lemmy) have a dogmatic hatred for AI in code, and I get not wanting to be associated with vibe coding tech bros. But there is also a lot that AI can be really helpful for these days.
One of the reasons I switched away from Sublime Text was seeing my colleagues auto generate tests from a single prompt in their IDE while I was stuck copy+pasting code around. I’m glad Zed has that same lightweight approach while also supporting modern tooling.
This was not a physics experiment, this was an art project.
No, not really. But I’m also lost as to what you mean.
I think the main counter argument to this is a practical one. Microsoft, Google, Amazon, all these greedy corporations have contributed to many open source projects and initiatives. Google has a strong influence in defining web standards, should we ditch web browsing? Amazon and even Microsoft have contributed to Linux either trough donations or direct contributions, both in the kernel and in foundational software that runs on top of it. Should we ditch using Linux servers?
What shows is that while money can corrupt it is not an inevitability. So instead of ditching Blender because Anthropic donates to it I’d suggest ditching Blender only if and when they start rolling out vendor-locked Antrophoc AI integrations rather than take a dogmatic ai company = bad stance.
Blender is great software that makes 3d modeling accessible to a lot more people. Why would you need an alternative because Anthropic donates money to it?
Actually people growing old and developing dementia or Alzheimer are much more expensive than people dying (relatively) young of lung cancer from smoking.
I have all the weapons unlocked and escaped with 1 or 2 heat with some. Favourite would be the shield, least favourite the sword… I just can’t get a run to the surface with the sword without dying along the way
They might just be sneaking up on you
I picked up Hades on sale a while ago, it sat in my library for a while but now that I actually started playing it I am hooked! I’m already eyeing Hades 2 once I’ve completed the story of 1.
In many normal countries you can absolutely call in sick when you’re vomiting out your guts
How did you puppy train a cat?
Have they gotten better at testing or have they gotten better at hiding doping?
Why are researchers conducting deadly attacks? Did they get frustrated from doing research?
8000 people used to high salaries and probably living in or around silicon valley with insane cost of living. I don’t have high hopes for them switching to working on fediverse projects…
