They should've looked at their star software product: Microsoft access.

Now presenting: Access Intelligence

You can't be that blind. At pretty much every women's rights protest there is at least someone with a sign up that reads something like "All men are rapists". Sure, the protest might not be about that. Sure, not everyone agrees with that kind of statements. But there's not much opposition either, so that kind of sexist message appears all the time in the news. Furthermore, those spewing sexist bullshit call themselves "feminists", so young men think that feminism is like that, and now they hate feminism too.

EDIT: just as an example, right after writing this comment I saw this other one: https://lemmy.world/comment/13322514 it's impossible to time it better.

That's the exit. Because the woman is not inside.

I'll train my AI on just the bee movie. Then I'm going to ask it "can you make me a movie about bees"? When it spits the whole movie, I can just watch it or sell it or whatever, it was a creation of my AI, which learned just like any human would! Of course I didn't even pay for the original copy to train my AI, it's for learning purposes, and learning should be a basic human right!

She was supposed to be ugly?

HTTPS solved much of the security issues of untrusted networks. As long as you're not doing banking or whatever, you should be fine without a VPN.

Why would they copy VSCode including the aspect people hate most.

Had they made it in a native gui I might actually consider it. Otherwise, why wouldn't I just choose vscode.

If I choose MIT it's because I don't care if people "steal" the code. This meme is stupid and condescending, if he didn't mind that Intel used it's code it's because he didn't mind, that why he chose MIT. Why is Intel beating him in the meme? It makes no sense. You are proyecting your thoughts onto him as if that's how he felt, but then you show that he didn't feel the same way you do. Why?

When I see a GPL license I don't see freedom. I only see forced openness, which makes me immediately avoid that library, since I can't statically link to it.

Freedom means that everyone can use your code. Yes, that means for-profit corporations. For free, without restrictions.

If I want to make a piece of software to improve people's lives and I don't care to do it for free, I'll choose MIT. If it gets "stolen" by a for-profit corporation it only makes it better, because now my software has reached more people, thus (theoretically) improving their lives.

1. This is not lately, it's been happening for a long time.

2. Nothing in particular happened.

3. I'm gonna explain the meme: Discord started as a gaming communication software, after some time they expanded and discord servers are not used just for gaming. This leads to some software projects being coordinated in discord servers. However, discord is not a tool designed for this purpose, and because of that, OP had the reaction of this meme.

The disadvantages of discord when used as a community for software projects (as opposed to traditional forums, for example) are as follows (not an exhaustive list):

• Most importantly, discord doesn't get indexed by search engines. So you can't just Google a problem and a link to a discord message with the answer will appear. Some say that if something is said in a discord server, it hasn't been said, because it's not findable. You have to know in which server to look for, and then use Discord's own searcher (which in my opinion is bad).
• Conversations are just a flow of messages. Recently they introduced threads, which acts more like traditional forums, with an OP, title and answers. However, most people still just use the chat.
• If you ask a question in a chat and nobody answers, people will just keep chatting and your question will be faded away, hidden by more recent messages.

This infographic has a very big and obvious flaw: wages are not the only cost of a company.

If a company covers its wages costs in 1 day it doesn't mean that it's pocketing the remaining 363.

Instead of revenue, they should use wages+profit. This way we can see which companies take what part of the generated value for themselves.
