  • I’m pretty sure he did this out of this own motivation because he thinks/thought it’s a fascinating topic. So, sure this doesn’t align with popularity. But it’s remarkable anyways, you’re right. And I always like to watch the progression. As far as I remember the early videos lacked professional audio and video standards that are nowadays the norm on Youtube. At some point he must have bought better equipment, but his content has been compelling since the start of his Youtube ‘career’. 😊

    And I quite like the science content on Youtube. There are lots of people making really good videos, both from professional video producers and also from scientists (or hobbyists) who just share their insight and interesting perspective.







  • Yeah, but usually with open-source software you get like 150 Github comments complaining and outlining their shady business practices… If there’s something to complain about.

    The XZ disaster is an example for sth else. There are probably more backdoors in proprietary software that we just don’t know about. And they can just keep it hidden away and force the manufacturers to do so. No elaborate social engineering like in the XZ case needed… And no software is safe. They all have bugs and most of them depend on third-party libraries. That has nothing to do with being open or closed source. If so, being open provides you with more of a chance to catch mischievous behaviour. At least generally speaking. There will be exceptions to this rule.


  • Naja, Merz hat mal gesagt man müsse die Freiheit gegen den Angriff Putins verteidigen. Also bei dem weiß ich immer nicht so recht… Aber ich glaube diese Position würde auch er nicht vertreten. Und sein Totschlagargument steht auch schon in dem Artikel, da brauchen wir keins erfinden…

    Außerdem wohnt der soweit ich weiß in Arnsberg oder irgendwo im Sauerland… Weiß nicht ob das so weit oben auf der Wunschliste von Putin steht 😆
