I think you have to work real hard to cover your eyes to there being 100% no use, to regarding it as having no potential. Shame on anyone who is able to fool themselves into being so completely convinced.
If you are 99% against, that's at least some ability to judge reality. To have some ability to investigate & think. But you should be able to talk at least like you have some moorings, some connection with both sides of the discussion, imo, or you just aren't being serious.
The goal should not be to include something because there is a use case but because the use case so stunningly obvious that this should become part of what every browser must implement.
It is clear this can be done without being part of the standard as is shown by the fact that it is already done. So it has no place in the standard.
How can this be done without a standard? By having a user download a couple GB model for every site they visit, and using webgpu (until/if web-nn ships)?
This doesn't make any sense. And it's far less ideal than using already on device models, that are better tailored to the device's hardware, and that may be already resident.
Good things should be made broadly available. We didn't need jquery before it came along, we could just do the things. But jQuery set a standard. And in turn much of what it did got sent into improvements to query selector. Your model of standardize only the minimum sounds like suicide for the web and I think it's dreadful, and I'm glad such dour sad views have no standing.
This is probably going to sound alien. Socialism is ontologically evil. Regardless of outcome or positive it produces there is a moral obligation to stop the state from doing something like UBI.
A guy decided that after getting all his patches rejected because they cause tests to fail, doesn't compile, etc. that the problem is everyone else and decided to fork XOrg.
He then announced that the problem wasn't his code that didn't compile but DEI so based the entire forking around being a political conservative.
Everything I've seen written by him shows him to be insufferable, thats where the negative attention comes from.
There are a lot of distros that have xlibre packages for something that ostensibly doesn't compile.
I wouldn't trust the reason given by the people who have said that they're trying to kill Xorg for why they're rejecting patches from someone trying to improve Xorg
> There are a lot of distros that have xlibre packages for something that ostensibly doesn't compile.
No one says xlibre doesn't compile, but good attempt at a distraction.
Have you considered invading a country as an alternative way to distract from terrible views?

Wow here it shows who's politically motivated and like it or not Xlibre probably felt the same way. Some people cannot sleep or chill if it is not theirs world view.
This is indeed not at all about his code. I don't care what he thinks of vaccines and COVID - I just as much don't care what Linus Torvalds thinks about these things. They are damn programmers. Their business is to ship reliable, usable, secure software.
I'm bored with most of the new flashy products, but that just leads to me tinkering more with things I already have or fun new open source projects. It's somewhat a hobby of mine to maximize the potential of old hardware with better software.
Not the person you’re responding to but yes, pretty much all of modern tech is awful.
The specs are pretty good but then you don’t really own it, you get limitations on what you can use it for, you get rent seeking and walled gardens everywhere. Even if you’re paying you get ads and get tracked. Updates make products worse more often than not.
A little credit please?! I don't use AI anything. I code my stuff the old fashioned way with nested if/else statements that make you cry trying to follow along. And damn the coworker that interrupts your debugging asking if you got their email or not.
and nothing. it's a comment on how everything is closed tech by the platforms, not a knock on being bored with that fact. i fully agree and do not participate on those platforms.
