Please, do not post clickbait

And they use ULA's Atlas V rockets even though Amazon's CEO owns a competing rocket company. Space is hard 😂

A few things to point out:

• Microsoft created this extension and pays money to develop it
• Despite that, they give it to programmers for free. It is still free of charge.
• They explicitly said that using it outside of their products is forbidden (according to article: at least 5 years ago), they just didn't enforce it
• Someone (here: Cursor developers), despite that, used it in their products and started to make money from it

What exactly are you mad at? When will programming community finally understand that Microsoft is not a non-profit company and its primary purpose is to make money?

Thank you for reminding me of existence of this network. Have they already joined fediverse as they promised?

What is this

Wow, have they just realised that not every single thing computers do is actually useful to anyone? I think screens that show things when nobody's looking cost a lot more on a global scale.

Naah, boring

So... the US government doesn't have to fund it anymore? So that is an advantage for them in this situation, what is the disadvantage? Or was that their goal all along?

Forgejo is such a terrible name 🙄

This should also be part of git repo (but maybe not downloaded through typical git clone as it might be too large though). Has developers of git ever considered doing this?

Is talking on Lemmy ok?

Can anyone ELI5 why it's bad? Apart from contributior being Microsoft
