According to the latest annual report from the Linux Foundation (LF), less than 3% of its budgetary resources are allocated to the thing it is named after!

Corpos doing what corpos do better.
Yikes
that was the most worrying part of it to me; nothing is safe from ai apparently.
Linus and Greg aren’t willing to save anything either.
They rolled over on the American government’s demand to expell Russian contributors like puppies begging for a treat.
Linux has become as captured as any Western institution.
You mean Yankee

No.
America is a continent. There are more non yankees (or genocide supporters) than yankees in America.
i understand what yankee means and my use of the word “american” here was intentional.
yes, the yankee gov’t has captured linux.
a significant portion of the people in this community don’t know the word “yankee” but they’re capable of understanding it and to express the idea to them, you have to use words or expressions that fit the context this group’s frame of reference so that they can fully understand the idea you’re trying to express without it getting lost in translation; the people who exist at the intersection of multiple identities call it “code switching”.
I’m not going to dispute that. But that got me thinking: how to express what collectivist values entail to a highly individualistic individual? Shared gains aren’t a commodity to them. I’d like to hear (well, read) your perspective.
America is the colloquial name for United States Of America. The denizens of that country are called Americans officially.
There is no continent of America. There’s North America and South America but that’s not “America”
Also as a Canadian most people are still genocide supporters. Also also, America the country is larger population wise than the rest of the countries on North America combined. So even with your broad brush of “all Americans are genocide supporters” you’re still wrong.
i was thinking how i have to code switch the name “american” based on the audience and it made me wonder if this was one of the defining characteristics of all westerners.
the anglosphere is probably the primary driver of the definition of “america” as you described it in your comment and your culture’s sociopolitical alignment depends on how much in common your idea of “america” matches the anglosphere’s definition of “america”.
in other words, the less your definition of “america” has we the anglosphere’s definition of “america”; the more eastern you are.
I won’t hear it from a guy that was paying homage to a bonafide nazi the other day
Sincerely, what did you expect? I mean, obviously it’s hyped right now, but let’s be real - AI is not going to go away anymore.
