> I think that Redis Labs Common Clause page did not provide a clear and complete information, but software companies often do communication errors

In their defense, many programmers can be so spiteful and cynical that basically nothing could've been done to change this "communication error."

It's helpful that Salvatore clarified, but I suspect that there are many who won't care or won't be convinced. The headline is all they needed to trip their "GTFO" line.

Personally, I think the move was fine. There are much worse companies out there.

Maybe I'm missing something, but how would AGPL protect Redis from cloud providers? The competitive advantage of aws, azure, and gcp comes from the ecosystem and available hardware, not from any modification or addition to the product.
What I mean is that even after the project leader tells you it was just some confusion, the Github project still is marked as BSD, and nothing is written in the original announcement clearly stating that Redis would switch license, it is a bit strange that the information continues to spread regardless of what I continued to say.

The pragmatic perspective is the one given by the supporters of the Commons Clause. The ideological one is the one given by the Free Software advocates who have longer memories and thus know where this leads.

I personally support the ideological position, I just don't think this is the right way to make that argument.
As the first engineer at a successful startup.

Responsibilities-
* Take over everything technical I was good at and hired for.
* Take over policy and progress on everything I was good at.
* Be on call 24/7.
* Do whatever the CEO/CIO didn't want to do.

Think this is pretty standard from my reading of other startups. The one lesson I should have learned and didn't
is that as first engineer you should get 10% or more equity if you stay > 5 years.

People need to stop using the term "fake news" it is more a meme at this point than constructive English.

Even reading that statement and assuming the best intentions I can see why people would be upset/concerned. Redis has gone from Open Source to "Open Core" with some of the best modules now essentially paid for.

As explained by antirez[1] Redis itself wil remain BSD and his own modules will remain open source licensed. Only the modules developed by Redis Labs will have this clause. So no change for future or past versions of Redis.

Actually, extending it in a native Win32 way in line with the existing console model would have been quite a simple thing.

There are already CONIN and CONOUT objects. One simply needs to make the latter a synchronization object, the former already being waitable. The console screen buffer maintains a dirty rectangle of cells that have been dirtied by any output operation, be it high-level or low-level output. It becomes signalled when that dirty rectangle is not zero-sized, the cursor is moved, or the screen buffer is resized. And there's a new GetConsoleScreenBufferDirtyRect() call that atomically retrieves the current rectangle and resets it to zero.

With that, capturing console I/O is simply a matter of waiting for the console output buffer handle along with all of the other handles that one is waiting for, getting size/cursor info and clearing the dirty rectangle with GetConsoleCursorInfo()/GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo()/GetConsoleScreenBufferDirtyRect(), and reading the new cell values of the dirty rectangle with ReadConsoleOutput().
clang is doing pretty nicely compared to MSVC these days: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17504197
That presumes that functionality of Redis is not subsequently moved into modules, and that new functionality is not only done in modules.

The current development path does seem to favor modules - a slim core with the functionality added as modules.

antirez: I understand your frustration and don’t mean to take away from the message, but please consider removing “fake news” from the wording. It unnecessarily politicizes the post and really leaves a bad taste.

“Fake news” is the term of art that politicians are using to criticize true stories that they don’t like.

In this case, you’re trying to correct an actual falsehood. The spreading of falsehoods and their being difficult to correct is as old as time and nothing new to this era.

Thank you for listening, and for Redis, as always.
That's why I love how Finland does at least some of their fines: set at X days' income for each given offense.

As the author of that article, I want to clarify that I was aware that Redis core was going to continue to be available as BSD and incorporated that information into my article. antirez, if you have any comments or corrections I'd be happy to include them in the article.
> No weasel words.

What weasel words? They don't claim their license is FOSS. They do admit they are trying to make money. The wording of the license is a little vague, but I think the intent is pretty clear.
1st Edition of this book was excellent. Gives a solid explanation of both data mining/ml techniques and the trade-offs of choosing them.

The update to the chapter of classification was needed. Previously, the section on SVM and ANN was a subpart of a chapter, spanning no more than 10 pages, glad they added more detail there.

They also spend time in early chapters talking about preprocessing and cleaning data, something that often is glossed over.
> Future REX solutions could involve hydrogen fuel cells or even natural gas.

I don't know about hydrogen, but natural gas in vehicles has a planned obsolescence problem: the fuel tanks expire, and replacing them is expensive (both parts and labor). There's also a pretty sparse network of filing stations (some of which require a lengthy preregistration process) -- adding a different dimension of range anxiety doesn't really solve the range problem. (I tried to get a natural gas crown Vic last year, and gave up because it was way too hard)

Careful running emacs as a systemd service. I did this for some time, but then one day when I rebooted the computer, nothing worked - drives weren't mounted properly, services I expected weren't there. I finally found that none of my systemd services had come up (but systemd didn't generate errors or failed messages) and yet later still discovered that it was apparently an error in my .emacs that had somehow caused a domino effect of none of my systemd services starting up.

I've gone back to just having `emacs --daemon` in my .xnitrc.
Right. I occasionally hear local word-rich rap and it is low quality lyrics overall. In particular, it’s like they explain every line with ten more lines, as if their listener was an idiot who cannot read between these.

If I looked for a good metric, I would probably take min(word per meaning and touch), but that would raise a question on what ‘meaning and touch’ is. Nonetheless, good lyrics always seem to be un/under-spoken or sharp cut.

I followed the first edition of this book during my master's degree Data Mining course. This is a good book (not too math heavy like [0]). It is a good book for somebody getting into data mining but it is more theoretical. For another excellent book that concentrates on building models using R I highly recommend [1] which has a great balance of theory and practical. Fun fact regarding [1] - one of the authors is the daughter of the renowned physicist Ed Witten.

I can see their side. GPL was called copyleft for a reason, a nod to copyright. It's a copyright restriction which limits redistribution to certain terms.

Cloud providers do redistribute. It runs on their servers. They do not have to honor copyright restrictions. They can make proprietary modifications and keep them, and they do. They might be honoring the letter of the license, but certainly not the spirit of it.
I never understood why that isn't the way it's always worked. Some design software lets you define things in a similar way to how you would program it, but there is no easy pathway between them.

Even a code generator that's wrong 50% of the time would be pretty useful.

There is nothing pragmatic about the CC because it will wield all sorts of problems, most of them unanticipated and unexpected, and may very well 'do the opposite' of intended. That's not 'pragmatic'.

'Pragmatic' is recognizing that maybe what we have today is kind of crap and not perfect, but it's much better than some new pipe-dream of a clause.
> Water utilities also generally do not offer "unlimited water" plans (unless you're coke/nestle I guess)

True, it is a physical resource as well but they aren't throttling water and they meter it, so if you use less you don't have to pay for that unused water, but if you use more or an almost unlimited need, you pay for that usage.

ISPs get data overage charges after data caps but I don't get money back when I don't use up all my plan. ISPs have ISP-friendly metering now with data caps and throttling, I pay if I go over but I don't get money back if I use less. Or they offer unlimited plans that are throttled earlier than people want to oversell their capacity.

Water isn't throttled and limited if you are paying but it isn't truly unlimited, neither is bandwidth/capacity, but bandwidth/capacity is more unlimited than water is as expansion is easier. All cable ISPs have to do is take more of the line dedicated to TV channels and use them for data and expand capacity, but they are choosing to nickel and dime and keep capacity low to keep data caps, throttling, overselling capacity, tax dollars and invest as little as possible in those areas rather than offer innovative jumps in bandwidth required for progress.
> I'm 100% certain that these companies would not have used my project if it wasn't MIT open source licensed.

Nope, instead they'd have hired you or a programmer like you — or figured out a way to make money from GPLed code.

The trouble with the MIT & BSD licenses is that they encourage corporations to freeload. That's why Google, Facebook, Amazon & Apple love them so much.

The great thing about the GPL is that it levels the playing field. We all get to share in a software commons.

I think there is something about the unknown and danger that vanilla games have. Then you level up, you have been all over the world a dozen times, you become goal focused.

I was soured on the GPL by GPL v3. I don't want "or later", because that is giving control of my code to whoever ends up owning the FSF in the future. However, then you end up with a GPL v2 system, where some authors have passed away so relicensing is impossible, which you can't link to new versions of GNU libraries as they have gone v3 only. It's maddening.

The underlying clarification makes sense, sort of. Is it correct to say that, "These specific modules were developed solely by Redis Labs and are free of any open source contributions."

I understand that the previously licensed versions of the modules will retain there old license and people can choose to contribute or not, on a go forward basis (based on the common clause). However, if FOSS contributions were made (in mass), it still seems a little unctuous.
