The conversation in comments seem to devolving in weird ways.
The OP (and others) have right to opinions but I see bunch of projects having successfully received their grants https://floss.fund/projects/2025. OpenSSL and Krita being the prominent ones that I recognize.
Calling the fund dangerous and unethical when they personally have zero control over regulations seems over the top to me.
I agree. Coming from a neighboring country with similarly strict rules on outgoing dollars, I've had many situations where sending money outside of the country, even for business purposes required an insane amount of paperwork, bureaucracy and sometimes bribery.
Bribes aside, the US is one of those nation. I had to provide decades of account records when I wanted to move a sum of money from US -> EU a few years back, due to triggering the "might be funding terrorism" KYC threshold
It gets tricky with private dependencies, then you have to pass some sort of token into the container to authenticate with the host when installing dependencies.
Similar thing happened to my model3 early on (late 2019) and I had a furious but futile conversation with service centre about how dangerous my situation was. They stonewaled me after “kernel panic, dont know why”.
The car had it’s own “blue screen of death” in the first lane, after a turn, on central expressway right next to their Santa Clara service center. (

Luckily there is signal right there so people were slowing down naturally but man the car turning into a brick and not even emergency blinkers (parking lights) working was shitty experience!
I’m fuming that someone paid a price for tesla’s similar failure.
Whilst the software failure sucks, the agreement by most of society (as reflected in most law) is that the fault is of the driver in the car behind for not leaving a safe distance.
Cars stop for all sorts of reasons, hence why there are laws for leaving these distances.
Has been smooth sailing with MBP 16” Intel (2019).
Really loving the extra real estate. Can not imagine going back to plain old 22-24” screens.
Edit: Primarily a backend+devops role. so refresh rate or pixels don't really matter. Being able to have multi tabs open on IntelliJ is real win for dev work. (Called split tab in jetbrains world)
