Unfortunately I can verify this is real. This is now required for people who use google voice - you will get a pop up saying it's required for calling and messaging

The issue here is that cyber security folks seem to forget that fundamentally security is insurance. The goal is to pay the least youb can to prevent issues.

The number of times I've talked to CSOs or CISOs that want every piece of data in their seim or extremely strict controls is innumerable. If your spend all your budget on tools and data you have no budget for people. Its better to actually understand your risk posture and plan accordingly.

However, thats boring. Just like devs want to use kubernetes for their 5 user site, security folks want the shiniest endpoint protections. Resume driven development and resume driven security are real, and in a world where there is more direct cost and fewer discreet deliverables, its likely felt more on security.

The watermark in the lower right of each image is the Gemini watermark. Definitely AI

Note - you can completely disable all the AI features in Gitlab. In fact, they're disabled by default unless you explicitly enable them by configuring model integrations. I think its one of the better self hosted options because it had a clear maintenance and path to profitability.

I run my own GitLab on a NUC with no issues.

Disclaimer: I have contributed open source code to GitLab before.

Plus, higher ethanol content in fuel reduces its energy density, so while this will certainly reduce prices, it will make people buy gas more often. Meaning.. Not a great fix.

This is equivalent to saying 'guns don't kill people, people kill people' which is a way of implying you shouldn't regulate the tool. The tool matters, and how its positioned and what it's given access to do matters.

Plus, speaking as an OSS maintainer for some rather large libraries... Its obvious. You can also just close MRs and if the user comments and engages in meaningful discussion you reopen. Cost of a wrong decision is low.

Yep, just clariftying what that means in terms of open source too, which i know folks here care about

There are two editions of Gitlab - community edition (completely open source) and enterprise edition (closed source additions). You can run CE completely free. You can actually run EE completely free too, there are just some features disabled
