In the comments they clarify that is mostly targeted at servers and IoT first. In the enterprise world attestation is absolutely needed. And on personal devices? I’d be very happy if I had a secure boot chain for full disk encryption working out of the box. At least for portable devices…

Since it’s IBM sponsored/supported they probably didn’t want to tell the reader that you can simulate a quantum computer on classical hardware. So no need to use their service to use “the real” thing.

For many of these, WebAssembly is critical to either their entire product or a major feature.

But I think this alone is not very convincing. We don’t yet see major websites entirely built with webassembly-based frameworks.

Why should it be necessary to build things only in wasm for the web? JS is a really good language for building frontends. There is a reason why lots of companies prefer building native applications with React. People always complain about framework bloat with JS, but then we want to hype up shipping huge wasm binaries? Just for basic interaction in a UI?

Wasm is doing great, inside and outside the browser. But it won’t replace JS because there’s no reason to do so.

Eh not really. Those are not some minimal wage employees that have no choice but to work for them. They are highly skilled and sought-after employees. Should companies be forced to employ people even when they do not need them? Sounds pretty silly to me. Instead just give everyone basic universal income and let them do something they choose.

I get your sentiment and I don’t really like Bending Spoons either. But the reality is that they buy somewhat failing business that have absurd costs that they cannot offset with their revenue. Most tech companies are way too large for the things they do. That’s how Bending Spoons succeed; because they can get the same or more revenue with a fraction of the man power.

They don’t really “coast” on the income. They have the engineering and desire to run their investments very long term. Of course they still fire almost everyone, so if you even get a hint of them trying to acquire your company you should start looking elsewhere…

Quite a few early employees of Bending Spoons are Ex-Google, but it’s not a conspiracy to squash some irrelevant competition. Just business/greed

I disagree. You are right that through federation and open source you can create your instance if another instance is a nazi bar. But now you open your new bar. Should you buy chairs from the nazis for your bar? Is it not a problem if the nazis are the only ones producing chairs?

That is to me the analogy with lemmy. Yes I don’t have to be on .ml. But I don’t want to sit on the transphobic, genocide denier built chair either.

Technology and society don’t exist in separate spheres and we should always consider them together.

So go with piefed if you can. I haven’t had any complaints since I switched :)

Never heard of it. Why do you need an app to download wallpapers in the first place?
