AI tends to write correct English, so you could try adding typos, grammatical mistakes, incorrect punctuation, wrong capitalization, etc. /joke

It has an unsubscribe link at the bottom and zero GitHub branding. This is just some enterprising AI douche scraping emails from commit authorship and adding them to a mailing list.

Trend chasing with FOMO whipped cream.

We all know the answer to C. In a couple of years it will be a good time to open a “tech debt reduction” consulting company.

I haven’t hit one of these myself yet so I can’t say for sure, but as far as what I have read, it looks like it.

No. It presents the captcha on your PC, then you need to scan the QR code from your phone.

They also need red vision cones to show where the un-stealth area is.

Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by profiteering opportunism.

Does this already have a name? If not, can we call it “Riccitiello’s Law”?

Calling it now:

2028-? Plex Pass Plus (subscription only)

Cargo distributes libraries as sources, not precompiled objects.

The Usual Suspect

Embrace it. Teach these people how to use data URIs to “embed images into the HTML file”, then laugh when they burn even more tokens.

There is ReactOS, which is an ABI-compatible kernel and operating system. That is as close as we are going to get unless pigs start flying.

Popsicle = should take a seat over there
One-eyed monster = a fan of Austin Powers

That is incredibly ironic.

It relies on the .NET runtime already existing on the system, so it can’t even be excused as a false positive mistaking an embedded language runtime as malware.

Either way, somebody pays Apple $10} a year. After paying them the equivalent of a kidney for the hardware. No thanks.

It’s not. They both expose a POSIX API and userspace, but the underlying architecture is very different. macOS is in part based on the Mach microkernel, and creating a process has a bunch of work related to that.

Even ignoring that difference, macOS has built-in signature checking that suspends a newly-started process the first time its executable is seen.

What language was it written in? I read that Microsoft Defender likes to flag the baked-in runtime of some languages as malware because they commonly shows up in actual nalware.

Whataboutism
