Don’t be worse than Russia. Please fix.

Finally! Someone talks about profits instead of stock price!
On the other hand, one of the major gpu manufacturer’s still has terrible driver support.
Major PC GPU manufacturers and their drivers:
Intel | AMD | noVideo |
---|---|---|
Perfect | Good | They hate opensource |
Major phone GPU developers and their drivers:
ARM | PowerVR | Qualcomm |
---|---|---|
Great | Looks promising | Looks good |
Not sure. Usually having BlueZ(Linux bluetooth audio stack) and glue in audio server or bluez-alsa should be enough.
Drivers
Linux has no problem with them. Unlike only one manufacturer, that breaks all drivers without holy blessing since late Maxwell era.
It seems you misunderstand the goal of goverment.
This is your opinion of what you want governments to be, not what they actually are.
I am sorry your country doesn’t try or even claim to be social.
What is the point of not researching and having bigger budget, if it can’t buy thing that did not get created?
What a lot of negatives and hypotheticals. All solved by getting a return on investment and having that money to do more things with, including research.
So in the end money will be spent on research anyway.
And then on goverment level there is no such thing as copyright or patent.
I’d like to introduce you to the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) which is an intergovernmental organisation that does precisely what you say doesn’t exist.
And what next? It can’t stop any goverment from ignoring copyright or patent.
But then anyone could take them anyway.
I’m saying it is necessary to achieve the aims of the GPL.
Which would make GPL toothless, but that’s fine because it would no longer be necessary.
But then corporations could not stop anyone from modifying their modifications to things like Lemmy.
I’m yet to see how AI makes #2 relevant.
Copyright for software is a joke. Software is only copyrightable thing, where mandatory copy is not enforced.
Free software is response to software copyright and software patents.
Trademark is also useful. I don’t want Tyson making fake vegan hot dogs
It has nothing to do with trademark.
Example. Copyright is a joke. For art if you have more lawyers, you win. For software mandatory copy laws are not enforced and source code gets destroyed forever.
Patent documents are rarely useful because they’re kept as general and opaque as possible to cover as many innovations as possible.
I think this is a problem that can be fixed inside of patent system. Make it so by the end of patent life there is “how to build production line of this” manual.
Research is supposed to be public benefiting. Private funding just is bad at it.
if another country immediately fakes the product and prevents the government from collecting back the taxes it spent on the research
It seems you misunderstand the goal of goverment. Goverment doesn’t care if budget goes down, when quality of life goes up. What is the point of not researching and having bigger budget, if it can’t buy thing that did not get created?
And then on goverment level there is no such thing as copyright or patent. On goverment level laws are not some external condition, but something that changed regularly.
plus a competitor can’t just “take all of that work and investment”, they will need to put in money to create their own product,
Not true. One major issue is that many competitors literally copy the product exactly. Fake products wreck the original company
They STILL need to put in money to create their own product. You know, they can’t magic production lines into existance.
Oh no, this is so… good idea. Yarr! Pirate Party approves.
- Performance is often more tied to the code than to the interpreter - an O(n³) algorithm in blazing fast C won’t necessarily perform any better than an O(nlogn) algorithm in Python.
An O(n³) algorithm in Python won’t necessarily perform any better than an O(nlogn) algorithm in C. Ever heard of galactic algorithms?
The overhead my classmates had dealing with poorly optimised code that caused constant cache misses was far greater than the interpreter overhead in my code (though at the time I don’t think I could have explained why their code was so slow compared to mine).
Did they write naive linear algebra operators?
There are decades of articles on c++ optimizations, that say “use empty() instead of size()”, which is same as here.
Nvm, some people still talk about stock. Stock price isn’t monthly income. Dividends are. And his insane salary.
