Not legally required != shouldn't do it.

You're not legally required to say "Hi" when you run into people you know and making it legally enforceable would be a legal nightmare, but it's the decent thing to do.
In this case, the author can set out what they think is acceptable in their license terms. Attribution costs nothing to the user - so if you want it, stick it in your license.

People should be able to comfortably use software within the bounds of the license without worrying about the author coming along and then shaming them for not complying with an additional set of implicit constraints.

Yes, it would have been nice for Amazon to acknowledge the original author. But given that they are not obligated to, it's unfair to act as if they are at fault for not doing so.
I wouldn't know, but a few years ago, I was rather impressed to see that some PDP-10 models featured a knob to manually adjust the supply voltage:

> Maybe the overall vision of becoming financially free is the wrong approach. Maybe it's a matter of focusing on something you really enjoy.

You may have a point here, or at least you have made me think about it.. :)

As with many people around here, I prefer to do my own things rather than waste time doing "work". Not that I'm lazy (as in sit on a coffee table all day), but I have lots of other interests. So I've been quite unhappy for the last couple of years because I'm going crazy (almost) trying to come up with ideas for monetizing side projects, so that I can live the dream. Unfortunately, similarly to you, nothing seems to be working.

I do also have a full time job (that is ok) and family to provide for, and they deserve the better parts of me. And I'm tired of going around in my head trying to come up with a miraculous idea and being unhappy in the process. Maybe I'm trying too hard to get out of the rat race, and although I consider myself technically proficient - i.e., capable of writing my own apps, maybe I'm just not as lucky as other people.

In summary, just to say that I am agreeing with you that maybe we (I) should just take it slowly, focus on something we enjoy and has (some) meaning.
For people who are even considering this as a nice service: setup a tor exit node and let it run for a week or so (takes time before it will actually route traffic through your new node) and experience the no more Netflix, captchas left and right and possible issues with your ISP & local law enforcement.

Thanks jmiskovic, I stand corrected:

> openpilot is developed in good faith to be compliant with FMVSS requirements and to follow industry standards of safety for Level 2 Driver Assistance Systems. In particular, we observe ISO26262 guidelines, including those from pertinent documents released by NHTSA. In addition, we impose strict coding guidelines (like MISRA C : 2012) on parts of openpilot that are safety relevant. We also perform software-in-the-loop, hardware-in-the-loop and in-vehicle tests before each software release. [0]

I would be quite curious to see how they perform HIL tests and in-vehicle tests and if those results are also public?

Edit: I cannot edit or remove the grandparent comment but I leave here this correction
Because all the author wanted was credit, and there's no appropriate license for that. The 4 clause BSD license has dropped out of favor for several good reasons and nothing else has taken its place.
Thanks. I'll give this a shot. Nothing to lose.
That's the way corporations have acted forever.

If attribution is needed, put it in the license.
When low in confidence, you could just use phrases like "my understanding is that [...]", or "from what I gather [...], is that not the case?" If you stand corrected you stand corrected and you're wiser, likely together with some other readers, everyone wins!

I wonder how good the support for touch devices is. Looking forward for the mobile version as electronjs is a no go at the moment on mobile.
Seems to still work for now, but they’ve also removed the ability to sort comments in the old version, and stripped other features. While they say they won’t “remove” old.reddit.com they’re doing their damnedest to make it annoying/useless.

Using the normal reddit website now as a guest though is all but completely useless. When you click the comment section you don’t see any comments, just the story and then a list of “recommended” other links and a banner to sign in over a small link to continue to read the comments. On expanding that, you only see the top level comment and clicking to expand it tells you to sign in and you can’t continue.

I guess they’re going the Instagram route and moving towards app-only.
King wants a bridge, king gets a bridge. Whether it's for the country and people or his own satisfaction, if he could pay or force people to do it, they'd do it.

And bridges were infinitely more useful than fancy castles, for example.
Yeah! I'm sure that's happened in software in less sophisticated, but maybe more understandable ways. Lane-keeping & auto-braking software - which loads of cars have - is absolutely terrifying to think about, and I'd be fascinated to see these attacked from a research POV.

My old Celica tried to murder me on the M62 and Toyota denied the problem for years (the gas pedals got stuck under the floor mats). And that was just a really obvious (in retrospect) design flaw - for how long could a car maker viably deny safety problems in their software?
It does seem like the license should have asked for a mention if that's what he wanted.

However. He has every right to point out that they are using his code. And I think it would be at least polite to mention that, and it is in my opinion impolite not to mention it.

And actually a little misleading when they don't mention using an open source system that is similar.

And it's not like the fact that he didn't say that in his license means he is not allowed to mention he made that software.

So I think better late than never, put the requirements you want in the license for credit. Or go AGPL or whatever. Although obviously that's not retroactive on the previous version.

This also proves that someone thinks it's a business. So I feel like there might be an opportunity to launch a competitor, with a main advantage that they have the actual talent that created the system.
I don't think that's entirely true. Large companies respond to public pressure over things all the time. Some of the better run ones also take the initiative to do things ethically off the bat. If a large company is treating "legal" as "morally acceptable" then we should be calling them out on this, not accepting as part of being a large company.

We should certainly also update legislation to force them to do things ethically, but it's not always possible to cover every possible case and thus our society depends on at least some level of corporate ethics.
That sounds even more plaussible!

When you are a huge company you have to be careful about saying thanks to Barista.

Maybe the developers would like to say thanks to barista but lawyers said to the developers to not talk to the barista no matter what since it's safer to say nothing than risk saying something wrong.

How does Starlink and Amazon's Project Kuiper compare to FSOC in terms of delivering cost effective Internet?

Also, what are the most pressing challenges with a FSOC deployment? I'm guessing line-of-sight issues are a real problem?

5G changes things radically too, I guess, would wifidabba remain competitive in face of that?

Is wifidabba similar to something that https://starry.com is doing?

I would like to reply to just the first sentence of your post. While I agree that just being leisurely and seeking enjoyment rarely leads to long lasting meaningful experiences, I do not believe we humans are striving to replace all work with those activities. There are many examples of people who have the possibility to do nothing but enjoy themselves and they still push their capabilities and try to find new challenges. Leisure is nice, but only leisure gets boring.
“Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray’s case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the “wet streets cause rain” stories. Paper’s full of them.

In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.”

You know that licenses are able to be written and rewritten right? If someone wanted attribution, someone could hire a lawyer and make a license (or make an edit/fork of an existing license) that does what someone needs.

Giving attribution (and monetary compensation) to the lawyers who make open source licensing function is also a thing.
The issue was an affidavit I signed swearing that I returned all the company's property after I resigned. Then I realized I still had some CDs. It all "hit the fan" when I tried to return them. It's been more than 20 years, but I think there are some lessons to be learned.
OP here. You are 100% right. But it's more about the spirit than the letter here.

My company heavily depends on OS from some great projects: we make money based on other people's hard work too.

Just a short "shout out" would have been nice. We do that with many open source projects, or we sponsor them. And we are a tiny tiny company.

Getting Influencers Involved in Your Google My Business
I found this article interesting, but surely there is some kind of deliberate provocation in an author posting in an anonymous blog with a weird name and no bio covering a grab-bag of subjects - warning against casual polymaths? I kept waiting for the "but".
Yes, any idiot can call 911 and have SWAT team dispatched, but that is a very low effort "attack".

I'm not saying that this could never possibly happen, but it's not much of a real threat exactly because effort vs reward is unfavorable.

Possibly. Or maybe it just damaged the brain in an anosognosic irremediable fashion. How would you make the difference?

> AWS could have really helped the maintainer with a single sentence and they didn't.

It's not befitting a large enterprise like AWS to tell their prospective customers that they are just wrapping their infra around free software in their marketing copy. If that single sentence even slightly impresses upon .1% of their potential customers that they ought to spin it up on their own infrastructure, obviating their need to pay for the service, that's plenty of disincentive to add the message.
This sounds amazing. Is there anyway I can sign up for your broadband plan in Bangalore?
People should know about that more so that they can learn lessons. Any "little tweak" to an otherwise simple and elegant spec increases complexity which generations will have to deal with. This complexity often times compounds exponentially. Just see the interaction between Nagle and delayed acks. Each on their own they sound like a cool idea, but the compounding complexity is what kills understanding.

Unfortunately, new generations don't learn the lesson. Modern web dev for example has so many layers of complexity and bloat, and they all interact and you need to know all layers intimitly for any real understanding as the complexity explodes. It does not have to be that way, if only every layer has a clean, small abstraction. Then you don't need to know the details, only the small spec. But that does not work if everybody just adds a hack here and there which breaks some separation but oh well.

And that's why we can't have nice things.
Everyone should spend a day trying to optimise iSCSI traffic.
The lambda functions for actions in ESPHome allowed me to very simply - basically fiddling with a YAML file - send sensor data directly to the domoticz API. Plus ESPHome can send _any_ 433MHz command, unlike Tasmota, which is very limited - binary on/off - in that sense.
I see, I assumed logically Kubernetes as a community would want to keep thing simple and keep it same across scale. For large scale there could be different variations (like switching storage backend) but for small/low scale tier keep it dead simple.

I am guessing there were valid reasons for the offshoots (k3s, microk8s etc.).
Maruti Suzuki won over India’s car market with Japanese innovation
Maybe this is a naive take, but I don't see why platforms such as Facebook and Twitter bother. Just let the marketplace of ideas flourish. Isn't that ostensibly why they were created? Why put your thumb on the scale? In this case, they are inadvertently bringing more attention to the subject. How many more people are aware of the story now? Seems counter-productive.
Despite the legalisms that may or not may be relevant, and despite being Amazon or any big company.

I could bet a decent amount that AWS legal department does not even know this was forked from OSS.

This is probably some dev or PM who found out about the project and decided they were in-line for a promotion using someone else's work.

Current standards emission around here are pushing for under 95gCO2/km, which seems to eliminate pure ICE. My 2008 sports car is rated as emitting 200gCO2/km (WFH so not a daily driver mind you).

The average car around here should be in the ballpark of 150gCO2/km, so 29g would be 200m.

There are some replies in this thread that misunderstood the content of Tim Nolet's twitter post. (Probably because the short headline has pitchfork raising overtones.)

- He's not complaining that Amazon forked his code with Apache license. He admits he also uses other open source with permissive licenses

- He just thought it would be nice/courteous/polite/etc if Amazon acknowledge/recognized/credited/mentioned/thanked his original project that they forked from.

The twitter reply of "user facing open source should have been AGPL" and replies in this thread of "you used the wrong license" don't really cover it.

In other words, I'm not aware of a permissive license that's the same as BSD/Apache with the only difference in that also says "use it as you wish but you must mention my name when you're a commercial enterprise making a splashy product announcement".

> Except that the aspiring pro athlete is doing esports now. They are trying to get World of Warcraft or Fortnite pros.

First and foremost, I doubt many children who aspire to be Fortnite pros would have ever considered being a professional athlete in a past life. Aside from some very notable exceptions (e.g. Tyler1), those don't seem to be intersecting circles very often.

Secondly, they're just lofty aspirations. Most children have no more chance of being Fortnite pros than they do of being professional athletes. Does it really matter what childhood fantasy they choose to chase, outside of obvious exceptions (e.g. serial killer)?

I assume your counterpoint here will be about physical fitness, so I'll just say: It's obviously possible to be a healthy and fit professional gamer (see: well, I already said, Tyler1). It's also obviously possible to be a pretty unhealthy professional athlete (see: The numerous ex-pros past and present suffering from CTE).

> Before it was: principled, ethical, decent, proper, just, honorable, honest, good.

I don't know where this is coming from. Professional sports has always been full of people like Mike Tyson and the Boz. Hollywood obviously has/had people like Harvey Weinstein. Do I really need to name any "unprincipled" rock stars?

This is actually quite common with aftermarket tuning for the past decade. Traditional ECU tuning you replace your car's ECU with one with a modified (chipped) ECU. Now, there are bolt-ons that connect through the OBDII port. They modify shift points, change timings, and air fuel mix ratios. And do this without voiding the warranty.
