I wouldn't hold my breath.
The big centralised thing can be floated on the stock market and make billions of money.
The decentralised protocol thing is much trickier to monetise.
Where do you think the investment will be focussed?
People seem to forget that no-one had managed to design a compelling smart phone until Apple created the iPhone.
Of course, Jobs was in charge then and he had a vision that seems to be missing from Apple now.
But they have form for making things work when others have failed.
Or one uneducated bigot who has no idea what's going on at Twitter?
Never mind the source, you can click through to the filing from Twitters lawyers where they explain why "the Twitter Files" don't show what moron's think they do.
Supply chain is a problem, therefore it needs to be addressed, therefore the state get involved. Because the state would never leave something that was a problem, right? Not if it was causing problems for software developers....
The world doesn't work like this.

Yeah, I'd take advice from this man.
And yet they don't have enough money to reward the people who actually produce the products they sell?
Yeah, a clear example of the value of measuring success using share price.
Rich lazy fucks want to suck the profit out of every business and are held up as examples of success while idiots who think they're in with a chance of joining the gravy train cheer them on. Meanwhile the plebs, who buckled down through covid and kept the business profitable, are told to go back to spending 3 hours a day travelling to a shithole office in a indentikit city centre of Costas, Starbucks and MaccyDs.
And relax!
"Late last year, YouTube said it had reached 80 million Premium subscribers, up 30 million from 2021. If you take that 80 million and multiply it by 12 bucks a month, that's $11.5 billion a year."
Yeah, maybe read the fucking article you're commenting on?
'Capgemini is expected to offer "strong architecture; engineering leadership capability; infrastructure integration; driving ongoing tooling/ process innovation, continuously exploring industry improvements; making operational efficiencies and reduce costs; secure network boundary controls; integration with third parties," according to a procurement notice published recently.'
Capgemini is not expected to deliver that shit, obv. We're stupid, but not that stupid, eh?
How would that work? I go to the PC shop,
Do you want windows or Linux?

10 or 11
What flavours are the linuxes?
We have RPM based, Debian based, pacman based....
Ok I'll take Debian please
Cool, what distro would you like? We have Ubuntu, Lubuntu, redHat....
I'll take Ubuntu
Cool, what app store do you want? Snaps or flatpak?
Snaps
Cool, what desktop do you want?
I'll take the Windows 11 please.
Did you not read the article or not understand it or what? This isn't a "PANIC" piece , it clearly explains the problem and says that currently we don't have a fix.
There are a lot of bullshit articles about AI at the moment. That doesn't mean every article about AI is bullshit.
Hang on. Musk sets the rules here. He happily tweets "Pedo guy" at someone with no evidence beyond the country they're in, that's a serious accusation. Sounds to me like Musk thinks it's fine to make accusations with fuck all evidence.
Why are you so keen to white knight for him? Hoping some of that cash will rub off?
Facetious but actually, when you want things to change in America, sueing is a great way of doing it. If youtube actually lost a bit of money for recommending this video you can bet the algorithm would be improved.
(Also, think about the fact that in the USA gun manufacturers and retailers can't be sued for the damage caused by their products. And the USA is the only country where school massacres are a regular thing.)
Remember Beavis and Butthead?

What you seem to miss is that your criticism of the security of Russian commits is equally valid for EVERY commit. By your argument the only way to be secure is to not use FOSS. As you say, code reviews won't necessarily stop malicious actors so what options do we have?
How is it you can't manage to follow that thread to it's logical conclusion?
It's not xenophobia is it?
