Can't someone make me an AR prosecuting for Gold app that works? I promise then I'll stop complaining.
Garbage regulations like IP create these behemoths.
They become what they attempt to prevent/regulate or get captured. The FDA seems to think it's main job is to protect Big Pharma. The FCC thinks it's there to prevent you from running a free wifi mesh (can't have that: gotta protect the children and stop the terrorists, ya know). The SEC, the FAA, the EEOC, etc.. they all do the opposite of their actual job. All the big agencies either get captured and turned into apparatchiks for corrupt corporations and/or their "regulation" does way more harm than good to the people they were supposed to protect.
The government is bad at pretty much everything it does. It's also a corrupt murder factory that likes to kill folks for a myriad of reasons. That's why it's better if we keep it small: so it gets fewer opportunities to cause problems.
Looks like amateur hour in software is slowly coming to a close. Good.
Since all communist idiots like you love Rust, while you're gloating over the corpse of Ruby, would you like to comment on the Typosquatting malware in Rust's cargo crates? Looks like the exact same thing, to me along with Rust's problems with maintainer account compromises, dependency graphs exploding (popular crates pulling in dozens/hundreds of transitive deps), and their encouragement of micro-packages rather than stdlibs, which now looks pretty stupid.
Looks like more vindication for C programmers who tend to eschew any supply chain micropackages and haven't any supply chain centralization ala flavor-of-the-day "cloud" languages. What do the Comrade Programmers of your glorious Communist revolution in stupid-fucking-useless-time-wasting-language-wars use to combat this, Tavarish ?
