The moat is that they saved their money and can remain in business indefinitely!

I like this, but Solana suffered a breach very recently. Is/was Zoneless impacted by the recent Solana breach incident?

For a lot of my work, I'm pretty happy with OpenCode + GLM-4.7-Flash-REAP-23B-A3B-Q4_K_M.gguf running in llama.cpp.

Free and local.

Having kids may not be for everyone, but it is the best thing that I have ever done in my life.

mring33621 — Tue, 10 Mar 2026 14:02:13 +0000

The 3 slightly different corner styles are, honestly, pretty funny.

Or some well-done malicious compliance.

Nope. From the POV of the maintainer, you are creating extra, and probably unnecessary, work for them.

Ooh, I see it now, right in the middle:

Ok, their license is pretty strange: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost/blob/master/LICENSE...

MIT for binaries distributed by Mattermost.

But, if you compile it yourself: GNU AGPL v3.0 XOR Paid-for Enterprise License

Then, for some odd reason, they append the text of Apache License Version 2.0!!!

I'd love to try this, but i worry about embedded malware or other nastiness in random downloads.

New comment by mring33621 in "ICE follows starkly different playbooks in red and blue states"

mring33621 — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 15:10:06 +0000

Very strange and totally surprising!

In other, completely unrelated news, the US AG, Pam Bondi, offered to recall ICE from MN, IN EXCHANGE for some sensitive data sets from the state.
