Nvidia will continue to grow and exert dominance. Tech monopolies will persist, but no significant remedies will be imposed. 2025 Resolutions I will accept that OSS projects may change their licenses and adapt accordingly. I will remain calm when OSS projects stop offering easy-to-use, free versions. I will accept that hyperscalers hosting or monetizing OSS projects is inevitable. I will see forking OSS projects after a license change as a natural evolution of open source. I will use AI to summarize my writing and send the summary if it communicates my point more effectively.
