       @simon from what I can tell, that doesn't support setting the version by reading an attribute; setup.cfg supports that.

       This is extremely concerning, both in that google needs to be publicly held to account, and in that it sets a worrying standard for similar trials. https://www.bigtechontrial.com/p/how-to-hide-a-2-trillion-antitrust

       @simon I thought it came with python bow, but maybe that’s just the package I use.

       @huitema so, what does this mean? Is it bad, and if so, why - considering that people can move dns hosts easily (because it is reasonably interoperable) and the dns system is resilient to failures? I’m concerned about concentration and centralization, but in markets where there are multiple providers, low barriers to switching and efficiencies of scale, it’s hard for me to be as concerned as much as I am about other ones that don’t have these features.

       Law enforcement is asking - yet again - for access to encrypted communications. This post tries to succinctly summarise why that's a bad idea.https://www.mnot.net/blog/2024/04/29/power

       All of the drama around Wordpress is poster child #1 for why Open Source is not adequate to assure good governance -- forking is expensive and hard, and allows a lot of sins to be swept under the carpet.

       So, Google just launched a major new AI demo that requires people to relax their browser security settings. Wow.
