@bifouba efficiency is the ability to avoid waste/mistakes etc. But it always has two sides: Output and input. One could just as well make a case for more output for the same input.

@multiburst habe die Artikel zugesandt bekommen, danke!
@wiase habs schon bekommen, danke!
It is very revealing that for the right wing an "efficient government" can only be achieved by cuts and never by offering more. It's almost as if it wasn't about efficiency but just dismantling […]

@scy exactly. I was explicitly asking for mechanisms outside the license

@carol thank you so much!
@azul a bit. Thanks!
@skade worse
@nik a bit, thanks

Bonus question: Free Software licenses demand that you do not discriminate use (in the license). Which is why you cannot put "not for use in drones" in the license.
But if I license my code as […]

@besendorf that is the way of licensing which makes it incompatible with most open source stuff.
(Just realized that in a very twisted way and not for the good of the community or product WordPress/Automattic are doing something like this. Just not explicit, not based on values, just […]

@RangerRick it is a bit of an inverse though: A public benefit corporation says something about its own actions. I am looking for a project that tries to curb certain behaviors in users
2024-11-28 tante ┃ RE: RangerRick
@RangerRick that is what I am thinking about which is why I am looking for examples

@mschfr ich weiß nicht, ob das nen Konzern interessieren würde. Aber kennst du ein Projekt, das seinen Namen so nutzt?

@gnuplusknoppers yeah but not just the usual "be respectful in the forums" etc. something that as an addition to the license tries to disincentivise certain uses of the software (even though […]
You remember that dumb idea I was referencing a couple of weeks ago? It hasn't gone away. That might not end well.
Does anybody here know of an open source project that - while using a traditional license - enforces other social rules or makes political, ethical or social norms for the intended use of the […]
"Bluesky's vision for the new “social internet” is very much a libertarian worldview that is as old as the commercial web itself. Going back to the early days of eBay, technocrats have been […]

i love how »we shouldn’t live beyond our means« is only ever used to stop governments from investing into fixing society and never to stop burning resources we simply don’t have.

@noodle Also depends on the usual fake Open Source models (llama, mistral) that have the same dependency on corporate infrastructure and funding to build.
Here's the thing. Given its resource demands (hardware, power, data, data processing) "AI" (meaning the big models everyone loves these days) isn't doable without corporations and their […]

Spend the evening setting up bookkeeping software for myself and the little freelance stuff I do on the side.
If that's what being a grown up is, thanks I hate it.
Don't get me wrong the fediverse ain't in a good state and momentum is ... lacking at best. Software, culture, grown-upness, all need a boost.
But I also don't fully get coming here all day […]
