I certainly don't feel like the author, but it's someone else's perspective, not "bait".

Maybe "scissor statement" would be more apt, at least for the headline.

Sorry, this is not a "blog post" - it's far closer to digital marketing. A lead attractor as the author is trying to sell a service very clearly by the end of his page (no disrespect meant to either).

Last but not lest, this was a good laugh!

Cointracker sent virtually the same email 3h earlier fww, Openai either adapted from their template or another one.

Heavily depends on the contract with your ISP, I'm not aware of anything saying you can't use your uplink "commercially" - how one would even define and monitor that?

Can we please avoid the clickbait meta of "Death of" / "Is __ Dead?" for things that are obviously not?

The news describe an important shift, but just describe that it is, no need for "youtubefication" of titles here.

I don't think in this case that most people who know what Arduino is would be at all mislead by the title. Being "dead" doesn't have to mean that a company ceases to exist. There are plenty of what I would call "dead" companies that still make money every year. "Dead" can be used figuratively. In this case, meaning that though the company continues to exist, the reason for which many people bought their products is now gone.

Arduino's hackability was its unique selling point. When it is no longer hackable, what is left (of the company)?

Plenty out there to fill the void.

Fair enough, not a unique selling point. But an important one. Without it, who are the customers?

Yes, you may consider that opensource models hosted over Openrouter are charging about bare hardware costs, where in practice some providers there may run on subsidized hardware even, so there is money to be made.

For curiosity, does it follow through if you specify in the end: "do not use any tools for this task" ?

For one, sandboxing can't solve the halting problem.

So you're suggesting a denial of service? I doubt the sandbox is running on cooperative scheduling. Ultimately the VM can be run for some cycles, enough to get work done, but enough to permit other programs to run, and if the decoder doesn't seem to be making any progress the user or automated process can terminate it. Something like this already happens when js code takes up too much time on a browser and a little pop-down shows to let you stop it.

You can if you bound the program in time and space. In particular if you put a timeout on a computation you know for a fact it will halt at some point before the timeout.
