  • To clarify, GPL is not a free as in "free gift", but it is free as in "freedom".

    The giving back part is strongly related to the "freedom", not related to whether you profit from it or not.

  • GPL is not for you to make money. It is for the end-users to have freedom with their hardware.

    If you want to make money, use a proper license.

    To expand on this, GPL is not against capitalism neither. Sometimes, end-users' freedom with their hardware is good to make money on (they buy your support, to have confidence they can migrate from one hardware to another, or use their hardware way longer than the original manufacturer can stay in business). But it is also not an automated license to say "give me your money" neither.

  • Not really. The U.S. can send in the ground force to restore the trade around the Gulf. The BUT is obvious in this case tho.

  • This is not different from mlx-lm other than it uses a closed-source inference engine.

  • > It'd be nice if Python std lib had more thread safe primitives/structures (compared to something like Java where there's tons of thread safe data structures)

    Hence why basic Python structures under free-threaded Python are all thread-safe structures, and explains why they are slower than GIL-variant.
