> CDDL is per-file license, does not automatically extend itself to the whole product. But it also has wording about patents et al, which puts it beyond direct inclusion in kernel just like MPL.

Well, MPLv1 was incompatible with the GPL. MPLv2 has an explicit clause to make it compatible (namely to allow relicensing within limits). I would imagine the lack of "relicensing within limits" would be the key problem with CDDL and GPL -- since CDDL was based on MPLv1.

> Out of tree with one degree of separation (Solaris Porting Layer) is based on the precedent of AFS implementation for linux, where the argument was that the code is not derivative of Linux kernel code, as in no way was VFS unique to linux or any other crucial part involved.

Right, especially since the ZFS source code was developed completely separately to Linux and the SPL is licensed GPL+CDDL. This is the same thing that NVIDIA does with their drivers (they even build their driver binaries on FreeBSD to show that it "couldn't possibly" be a derived work of Linux and have a GPL shim).

I just started writing a kind of emotional diary public on the web. I'm not linking to it anywhere (though it's not really hard to find), and I write it in my native language (not a good proposition if looking for exposure).

The simple explanation for this is that I'm more keen to keep stuff if they're on the internet. Otherwise, they will just rot in my home directory and get thrown out on next reinstall in a couple of years.

It's also a good emotional exercise. Am I really up to the task of releasing my inner thoughts publicly, even though nobody is likely to read it? The thing that made me start it was this challenge from Neil Gaiman.

>The moment that you feel, just possibly, you are walking down the street naked, exposing too much of your heart and your mind, and what exists on the inside, showing too much of yourself...That is the moment, you might be starting to get it right.
All of those make it sound like a pretty terrible place to train autonomous cars, given how narrow the space of driving situations is. Cities like SF, where driving is kind of miserable, seem a lot more suited to training generalized models.

Though I do agree with you: I recently took a job with a self-driving car co, and am starting shortly (due to the technical challenges and great pay); but the assumed timeline most people are operating under seem pretty optimistic to me. That being said, I think much of the industry isn't expecting fully autonomous vehicles until at least the 2040s.
I watched the talk linked where that quote apparently comes from, and it was really good. Thanks for sharing that. Ilya specifically says in the talk that it is unlikely but that there is sufficient lack of understanding that we can't rule it out, and that thus the questions around it are worth thinking about.
> But Ubuntu figured it was ok to ship with zfs.

Having spoken to some Canonical folks involved in this discussion, basically it boils down to the fact that the SPL (Solaris Porting Layer, which converts Linux VFS APIs to Solaris ones for ZFS) is GPL licensed and that ZFS was developed entirely separately from Linux (and Torvalds has said he agrees with the latter point). It also helps that ZFS is free software.

Honestly I think their strategy is that it's very unlikely they'll get sued (not to mention the past 5-8 years of OpenZFS development was done without an Oracle CLA). IMHO the FSF is primarily against it because they think it might water down the GPL's effects.
Trademarked in what industry? Trademarks are not universal, they are only in particular industries.

I also don’t see the benefit of schemaless. Schemes have been way too useful in my programming career.

But eventual consistency may be a viable trade off to help you scale, but the thing is you probably need to be at a massive scale before it is worth moving away from traditional SQL, which can have read replication and the app can have caching too. But there is probably some point at which eventually consistent nodes make sense.

In a sense that is what a CDN is, and we like to use those.
>year olds advice about snowboarding, but i would listen to everything Shaun White had to say at 15.

You missed the point. Young people, especially extremely talented ones, are terrible at giving advice. They don’t have nearly enough experience to recognize biases and will give out worthless platitudes like “always practice 6 hours a day” when the real key to their success is mastering some fundamental technique at a young age that they don’t even understand.

It’s like chefs that recite recipes with “a pinch of X”, “a splash of Y”, and “a sprinkling of Z”. This is completely useless to amateurs and is only marginally useful to professionals that might be able to deconstruct how the ingredients interact to get precise ratios.
I don't think we really considered SES, to be honest.

We had to move pretty fast when we made the switch. My coworker tried Mailgun (which didn't verify our domain fast enough), while I tried Sendgrid.

There was also the added bonus that we had a free paid tier from Sendgrid as part of our accalerator program, so we had planned to switch to Sendgrid anyway.

Was your user account closed or the workplace account closed?

If it was the workplace account that was closed the. It could be because you had users connecting to it from inside Iran and not yourself personally.

It if you got booted from a workplace because they though you were in Iran I would say contact them and ask they why they believe so, that you are not in Iran and your ip addresses that access to the service back you up.

Think of the pubic shitshow it would cause if a major yech company were banning U.S. citizens/residents because of their race/nationality. Simply because of the optics and legal repercussions behind such an epic fuck up if it ever came to light I doubt slack have staff going though account names looking for Iranian sounding names to ban off the platform and are using other metrics to determine where the user account or workplace account is actually based.
I wonder what would happen if you made DOTA totally observable. You could probably reformat it as 5 pieces for a player instead of 5 people on a team or the like.

But yeah, I assume it's a combination of:
* Most people pay through their insurance, so they don't have to pay the sticker price or anything resembling it
* Some people going on payment plans and getting stuck in debt basically forever
* Some people bargaining their bill down, paying pennies on the dollar
* Some people going into collection, paying pennies on the dollar

Of course, it's absurd that all 3 out of 4 paths require you to take extra, often really painful steps (collection + bankruptcy, maintaining insurance, or long drawn-out negotiation) just to pay a reasonable price for something that is 100% non-optional and most countries provide for much-closer-to-free. But that's kinda what happens when the system is broken

If Project Mu requires UEFI, then you'd need coreboot+TianoCore+Mu. In theory contributing to coreboot would have been far more useful, but their idea of being able to easily update firmware would work better on UEFI. Coreboot does allow easy flashing by default but it's not really meant to be enabled on user systems (since it allows for "firmkits").

Group plans distort the risk pool and are disallowed in countries like Switzerland that require health insurance. The major problem with the ACA is that they didn’t eliminate employer group plans, leading to an apartheid like situation where those higher income people having a discounted rate because the group pool they are in is much safer than the pool poorer people on the individual market are put into.

What is worse is that poorer people in the individual market can’t even get a tax break for buying health insurance (not until it becomes 10 percent of their income and they decide to itemize). In contrast, employers buy health insurance for their employees tax free. This literally screws poor people in service jobs by making them actually pay much more for health insurance (even including what the employer would pay).

I had quite a few of my Indian friends who did MS in US, joined an Indian company, and jumped ship to start ups within 1-2 years.
I mean, I guess, but that's kinda a worst case. My vet, for instance, quoted me up front, made me sign to say that I was willing to pay (I think) up to $x000 and notified me that they might contact me if they need to do extra work, and then did the surgery with an up front payment. They ended up refunding me money after the fact.

No reason we can't have something similar that in US health care as far as I'm aware, at least for the happy path where the patient is lucid and in a reasonable state of mind up front. But then again, why do we have to worry about this when plenty of countries have a basically-zero-fee system in place?

Strongly disagree.

GitHub is among other things a platform for sharing.

Sharing should not be obligatory.

When someone shares something, if you like it, be grateful, and if you don't, just move along.

If you want to know how it's done just go and read some open source voxel library - there are ton's of them. If you are interested on the path rendering part there's lots of awesome didactic resources for that as well.

If you don't trust the author and are afraid that the code does something nasty - just don't use it.

If the author feels he is not contributing - or not willing to contribute - to the state of the art in voxel techniques or path rendering (both of which are totally fine stances) then there really is no value in showing the source.

If someone creates a free tool for making art, their contribution should be cherished, and their tool used for art, and appreciated for it's artistic merits. Don't give shit for the author for releasing the free tool on his own conditions. If you don't like those, move along. Or, if you are inspired, go make your own and open source it!

By the way, that discussion is just horrible. The author lays open the reasons why he does not want to release it and the other party just disagrees. "We could help you with the patches... I would like to read the code that I run".. Oh really? I wonder if he really has read through the entire codebase of the operating system and all of the drivers and all of the programs he runs.

"Helping out with the patches" without adult supervision can lead to this:

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/art/9491391/Elderly-woma...

I totally understand why the author would not like to nanny the internet's eager contributors. An open source project needs a huge cultural effort to collect and
coordinate technically savvy key contributors before it can work. That won't happen automatically. Not everybody yearns to be a benevolent dictator for life of this or that.
SSRS is a big draw. There are other and probably better reporting tools, but the integration and support from MS is worth something to most companies. There's also simply the network effect at play and marketing, that MS has always backed that up with results. The money involved really isn't prohibitive for most small to mid-size companies that I've worked with. I've only seen the opposite, companies leaving their expensive UNIX licenses to move to an all-MS stack to save money. I have never seen large companies try to reduce their technology costs to zero with pure open source, because I think they intuitively know that you either pay with your licenses or you pay with maintaining a lot of expensive expertise, that also needs properly managed and effective. In the discussion of free as in freedom vs free as in beer, most companies core business is not technology, and they know there's no truly free beer and don't really care about the freedom. They want everything I've already mentioned, and the short and longterm support the license buys.

Outside of my professional career, with my personal projects I use SQLite, but if I were to build out something that intended to be larger scale business venture, I'd probably go with Azure SQL Database for multiple reasons. A large one being MS's overall integration, including their full control of the stack and CI/CD with .Net->Azure DevOps->github->Azure Pipelines->Azure PaaS/SQL Database. I admire what they're building, but a lot of people work outside of the MS realm. Companies don't tend to have a tech stack bone to pick as we do on HN, and many are already using part of the MS stack.

In sum, there's just a lot of business realities at play. I wouldn't personally run out and buy a SQL Server license myself, for what I do at home or with my (very) small side business, either.
Why, because I can see why a US company would have to follow US law?

Racist? No. A dick to other people? Sure. I’ll call you a dick no matter who you are. But most of the time I’m mild mannered.

OP is complaining about Slack shutting their accounts down, I’m just saying that the reason they did so is because they are legally required to do so and OP admits they are aware of such sanctions being in place because they have got dinged by them before so imo they should of known this day was coming.

They erroneously bring up another law that doesn’t cover them and say “if they have to follow law A then they have to follow this law that doesn’t protect us”.

I’m siding with Slack not because I’m racist but because they are legally required to shutdown the account and IMO OP should of seen this coming a mile off. I can not blame Slack for OPs actions in this case.

Don’t like it? Contact US reps to get the Iranian sanctions lifted.

Also, the intelligence is likely to be of a different kind.

I would argue that, unless you can show why AGI is not - in principle - possible, that the null hypothesis would be that it is possible. Unless we veer off into some weird mysticism, it seems that the human brain turns energy and matter into intelligence somehow, operating according to the physical laws of the universe... why shouldn't it be possible to build something else that does the same?
