If you're using open source software and not paying anyone, sometimes shit happens and you will be surprised or disappointed and have no recourse. Even if everyone starts off with the best of intentions.

We could debate forever about whether fault lies with projects overpromising, or users having unrealistic expectations, or whatever else, but I don't think that changes the situation.

If you have are paying someone for the software/support, shit still happens, but you have a relationship and ways to get recourse.

We got conned into this shitty world where HTML shovels ajax and giant JS payloads.

Old web was information and a theme could be written locally and applied to everything.

The value of CentOS is that it's provides a free and stable RedHat build.

Nobody needs or wants another Fedora.

This seems like a round-a-bout way of killing the only RedHat alternative to the expensive commercial version of RedHat.

If there is no Centos9, I'll probably move over to a Debian alternative. Just because of the principle of the thing. Better that than validate the "acquire and destroy" strategy that seems to be used by every big tech company like IBM, Microsoft, Facebook and Google.
I'm right (write?) there with you. I routinely write documents hundreds of pages long in Word that are filled with cross-references, figures, complex tables, and Visio objects. Word is very solid (though it wasn't always so) and maintains really good performance even with large documents. Cutting and pasting massive amounts of content from one place to another in the document can be done with more or less reckless abandon.

My hot Word tip is to use Styles. My other hot Word tip is to use cross-references. If you type "See Figure 3-1" in full, you're doing it wrong.

If anyone from Microsoft is reading this, please fix a) the unreadable text in the Styles drop-down selection list in dark mode and b) stop asking my if the large amount of data I put on the clipboard should be available to other apps when I exit Word. With SSDs, this anachronism takes me far longer to read and click No to vs. just saving the damn clipboard content without asking me.

> you are certainly not free to build a business on top of the software

A common mistake in interpreting the GPL in my experience is that it is designed to protect the freedoms of the producer. It is explicitly designed to promote certain freedoms for the user. The producers set and the users set are likely to intersect, which is likely where some of the confusion comes from, but it is not common that they are identical sets.

If the corporate world is part of your target audience, then the GPL family, particularly AGPL and GPLv3 (though not so much so LGPL) are unlikely to be good choices. This is true whether you are a solo home developer, or a significant commercial entity, or something in between, yourself.

Just like commercial licences, and other F/OSS licences, the GPL takes away nothing. It grants rights subject to the grantee agreeing to its other conditions.

> under reasonable terms

That is a very subjective thing.

If commercial entities won't touch something of mine because I've chosen to license it under GPLv3/AGPL/else, that is only a problem for me if I care whether commercial entities use it. They are free to try negotiate a different licence. Of course I'm only able to do that for my contributions unless others the project has taken contributions from have legally stated on the record something to the contrary, but that is no different than for a commercial project which has multiple otherwise independent contributors.
If I were running an open source software business, I would simply provide long-term support updates for free and also have lots of money to fund ongoing development.
That's not true though. Even if the government does nothing you still have people altering their behavior out of fear. More online shopping, working from home, less traveling, activities outside the home. Looking at Sweden where they didn't lock down, I would say that seems a very large part of the change in economic activity.

And because the virus tends to get more out of control, this change is magnified compared to when the government takes action. Is it really better for the economy over the long term to lockdown or not? I don't think we know the answer one way or the other.

To take the extreme example. China was the epicenter of the pandemic, took the strongest government action and snuffed it out. Now our economy suffers while theirs does much better. Maybe our problem is we couldn't be as extreme as them, we don't have a hope of eliminating it in our countries in the West through lockdowns.

Probably https://jsonresume.org

I have my resume defined using this schema, which is handy because it's supported enough that every few years when I actually need to update it, I can find a website (such as https://resumake.io) where I can just copy in the JSON and get a nicely formatted PDF out of it.
As long as plain SNI is still a option, bad actor will try to enforce you to use that. So they can do bad things.

China seems already done that and blocked esni. And the sites eventually gave up esni because people complaining they can't connect to it.

A deprecation likes that(ex. browsers nowaday marks every http site as unsafe) ensure it is not available to everyone. So some sort of these attacks never work.
This seems like a pretty thoughtful comment... downvoted to oblivion. Stay classy HN

$40bn valuation for $1bn in revenue & neutral profits. Growing about 40% per year. Obviously there is risk here, so the investment targets needs to account for it. It's a physical, price sensitive business, so profit margins won't be like FAANG-like.

So, in order to be successful (to IPO investors), doordash needs another 25X growth in 5 years... ish. I'm probably missing something.

(sheesh, asset prices are super-high atm... moving on)

Strategically, there's definitely something to delivery. It's prone to natural oligopolies. Delivery is also, at this point, the critical infrastructure retail generally... not just food. Same day delivery is a game changer for ecommerce, so owning that network does actually have the kind of potential needed for this kind of growth.

That said... the big worry is getting stuck with a similar issue to uber. The market may not bear many doordashes, but it will bear a few. Local competitors can play. Doordash might have their margins squeezed. It's certainly not a guaranteed success.
Even 100 years ago, tangible assets have very little value without intangible assets to run them profitably. Worker knowledge, management, etc.

I'm willing to agree that determining the value of intangible assets is harder than it used to be.

But let's say you figure it out. Value investing is probably every bit as relevant as it was 50 years ago.
A manager who cannot deal in error bars is not doing their job correctly, although I would also point out that it is important to re-estimate and update your boss as soon as you think you will miss the estimate (which you may have done).

In my previous environment, we were only allowed to give estimates in terms of a range of time.

We had a series of predefined "buckets" of time ranges (e.g. less than a day, 1-2 days, 2-3 days, 3-5 days, 1-2 weeks, 2-3 weeks, 3-6 weeks). As the estimates got bigger, so did the error bars, and if a task didn't fit comfortably into one bucket then it was upgraded to the next.

We also had design discussions and poker planning for all of these tasks. Estimates were almost always accurate, even if they weren't very precise.
FSF picked the bone that needed to be picked. Well, they should have addressed tainted linux kernel firsts... but oh well.

It is ironic (and sad) how people here campaigning against GPLv3 are all happy and warm when they realize they can download the driver and kernel sources for their modem, phone, rPI or whatever device.

But then if someone want to even suggest the same thing for digital products, then, no, it's the end of the world.
Grubhub has a market cap of 6.2B. So doordash is pricing it at 6.2^2. Is this just coincidence? Is doordash bigger than grubhub?
That seems like a rather uneducated guess. Some species of shark for example live a very long time (bordering on immortal), and orcas live as long as many humans.
I'm one of the more frequent non-Mapbox contributors to the project. I've made a lot of PRs over the years and I try to help out with reviewing PRs and to triage incoming issues.

While I agree there has been non-trivial contributions external to the core of gl js (eg. bindings, plugins), and these help the ecosystem, they don't replace work on the core.

Personally I'd hoped that those businesses who were using GL JS commercially without a commercial subscription through Mapbox would contribute and become part of the core development and maintenance, but that didn't happen to a large degree.
Tesla called her a criminal. Her fight could be a milestone for employee rights
Even in the West, a doctor who becomes the CEO of a successful medical supplies company or the administrator for an upscale hospital will make more than a doctor running their own practice who make more than a regular doctor employed by a corporation. Keep in mind there’s also a wide variety of “medical practitioners” like chiropractors, therapists, various “unlicensed medical practitioners” who practice eastern medicine etc. Even within traditional medicine you’ve got your small GP whose struggling to keep their practice afloat (it’s a regular business) and extremely wealthy surgeons or other doctors who identify a niche they can make extremey lucrative (eg unscrupulous pain management doctors who process high volume and low effort clients).

There’s a wide variety of outcomes even after the great filter that are MCATs and medical school.

For example, Thomas F. Frist Jr. is worth ~13 billion. Now granted at those levels he’s more an entrepreneur/businessman as all such people are. Still, the difference between his net worth and a regular GP making $400k is probably about the same difference as a musician worth $300 million and a musician making $200/year.
The reasons why he wasn't a fan of Mother Teresa are certainly shocking though. Do you contest the facts? Or do you think the facts should be ignored and she should be given a pass (and sainthood, literally) just because it's an anti-theist who dared to point those facts out?

And no, not all the criticism I cited (and the wiki page explains in great detail with many citations) was from Christopher Hitchens, or from anti-theists.

The truth is: She wasn’t a friend to the poor, she was a friend to poverty, who fetishized suffering.

If you will only believe the truth about Mother Teresa if it's spoken by a radically pro-theist Catholic, then here are Bill Donahue's own words, President of the Catholic League:

"Mother Teresa WANTED people to live in impoverished conditions, so she could identify with the poor, whom she's serving." -Bill Donohue, President of the Catholic League

I don't know how much programming experience you have, but let me tell you that bringing back an HTML dropdown menu is not a big deal. I don't know about "spite", but I would say it's either an oversight, or incompetence, or some grander goal to force JavaScript on their users for what could be termed "business-related reasons".

You picked up on "newer technology" as if it's pertinent to the matter. It is not. This usability checkpoint is still 100% valid today. I gave reference to that document to show that the matter is related to accessibility, and to provide evidential support to userbinator's view that the term has been hijacked by the web giants and munged up to exclude whatever is inconvenient to them.

You, like others in this thread, bring "disability" and "self-imposition" to this discussion. I dare you to imagine a world where not everybody who wishes to make basic use of GitHub is able, even if willing, to run JavaScript in every conceivable context. Can you imagine such a world? In this totally imaginary world this inaccessibility is not self-imposed. Given such a world, would you be willing to accept that my simple request is reasonable?
I followed some of the links and could not find a primary source for the data. (Links were either broken, redirected to the same page, or lead to other secondary sources.) So please link that if you've got it.

> "Over two-thirds" means you are more likely than not to eat at a restaurant that has cheated its employees.

No. It doesn't. It means that, in their entire lifetime as employees of any number of employers, two-thirds of employees, at least once, experienced wage theft in some form.

That's a much different statement and says nothing at all about whether those employees were robbed of overtime, asked to work for free, or their employers claimed tip credits for tips the employees didn't receive.
One could also make the argument that to be participating in "kinky sex" in the first place a person probably has thought more about sex than the average person and may have more experience communicating what they do and don't like - making verbal consent and discussions around these topics more likely to have happened.
There's a difference between being able to bomb Switzerland without facing much opposition and being able to occupy and control the country. I don't think anyone doubts our ability to invade Switzerland and squander endless blood and treasure in a fruitless occupation that ends in us leaving without having truly "beaten" anyone, ala Afghanistan, Vietnam, et all.

The whole point of the Swiss defense system is to make the country much more difficult and costly to invade, occupy and control than it could possibly be worth to an attacker, even if such a goal was eventually achievable. In this, history has proven them successful.
That's pretty cool paper.

Such a strange comment to make. I do not believe anyone disputes his right to choose whatever title he desires for his compositions. On the other hand, those pieces are not equivalent to works with that title, say, written in the 19th century. He seems to want to create precisely that conflation.
Not at all like those.
Way back when, the WoW armory (web-based character, guild, etc lookup) used to use this. It was incredibly useful for third-party integration - who needs scraping when they serve you the data on a silver platter.
If someone replaces complex and difficult code using a good, lean and fast library it would be an improvement.

And yet you could argue that it's "adding further layer / critical third-party dependence" and so on.
Isn't this the other way around? LLVM makes it easy to embed parts of the project into IDEs, linters, etc.

My understanding was that Stallman continually fought to keep GCC difficult to avoid linking with if you wanted to use parts of it.

As I see it, once LLVM became competitive with GCC, adoption quickly accelerated due to liberal licensing.
The problem with data and storage is that it has an extremely long memory. I think these groups are nefarious and China having my data will never end in my favor.

It's about whether or not they were cast in a good-faith understanding of the law, as promulgated by official electoral authorities. So if the electoral commission says that by doing such-and-such, you can cast a vote--even if it erred in doing so--anyone who cast a vote in such a manner should still have its vote counted.

In the NC (I think) case where it was argued that the lifting of the ballot signature requirement was improper, which was eventually upheld by the court, the court still held that the state must count all votes that didn't have the ballot signature so long as they had been cast before the court's ruling.
Shoehorning big words into a message usually has the opposite of the intended effect. This instance is not the exception.

For those like me who needed a little help... I do not fully understand the browser rendering process (someone who does please chime in), but what I gather about how this is works is:

- the content-type of the page is "text/html", so the browser is trying to render html

- there is no special meaning of the #render key to the browser (again the browser doesn't know this is json)

- browsers are very fault tolerant so they'll just skip over your document till they find pieces of html

- the JS made by the author is the part that parses the json as json, and it uses the #render key as its metadata section

You can try opening a file like this to test for yourself to get a sense of just the browser-parsing part, test.html:

{
"test": "hello",
"myHtml": "<html><meta charset=utf-8><h1>Hello World</h1></html>"
}

I do however get this warning in FireFox so perhaps this is pretty fragile:

> The character encoding declaration of the HTML document was not found when prescanning the first 1024 bytes of the file. When viewed in a differently-configured browser, this page will reload automatically. The encoding declaration needs to be moved to be within the first 1024 bytes of the file.

I'm guessing differently-configured means not in quirks mode? Does quirks mode just make the browser extra fault tolerant?
Not universally true, unless it's changed recently due to Amazon weening away? My old neighborhood was effectively force taken over by UPS. All the houses were razed, and much of it is warehousing for storing items for third party suppliers.
Isn't Reddit like this, in a way? You can append ".json" at the end and get the data for a page. Others can build their own UI on top of this, if they don't prefer the first party representation.

There are well-established exceptions that include incitement to violence. Wikipedia's summary:

I can count the number of remotely successful businesses built on AGPL software on one hand.

The AGPL doesn't prohibit starting a business, it makes starting a business prohibitive.
There’s some evidence that current streaming habits are actually affecting how music is produced. For example, it seems most listeners will spend a few seconds listening to a second before deciding whether to skip it, so intro sections in pop music are disappearing.

If your money was split between what you listened to, wouldn’t it make sense to split by time listened or length of the tracks? That might start incentivizing musicians to create inordinately longer songs to try to get a bigger slice of your money... hmm...
Absolutely correct, furthermore not only should the public be protected, but they should also be allowed to request an audit of who's querying their information. I had a (low-ranking) member of law enforcement run my plate and send a harassing letter to my family some years back. While it's fortunate nobody in my family was shot by a nutjob, I wasn't able to find out who it was until I ran into him by chance some time later writing a parking ticket (he was only a parking enforcement official).

I commented about this experience more in depth on reddit[1] and also brought up that federal judges have the US Marshals Service to protect them, and our state judges have county sheriff departments to protect them.

What I meant was remove the code to make these automatic connections to Google servers from the OS source, re-compile and re-install.

That is what I look for in "open source". If I cannot edit, re-compile and re-install, much of the value to me of "open source" is lost.
