It feels like he is arguing that Elastic should have used a more free license, like a variant of the GPL that forced AWS to contribute back, rather than the Apache2 license.

That made me think. We don't object all that much when people change prices for their software; we realize that it is just an experiment with what the market will bear.

I feel like the source code license is becoming something similar (as long as you own all the code). Apache2 for mass adoption, GPL for less adoption, but some more control, dual licensing for more flexibility, commercial only licensing if you want to maintain total control.

It is common for someone to start out pricing something low to see if they can get adoption and then increasing prices as people see more value. Could the same thing happen with licenses: start with Apache2, then change to one of the more restrictive models?

Obviously.

When teams of people compete intensely , the collaboration within the teams themselves must be just as intense.

I find it slightly offensive that someone would accuse me of discounting collaboration when 1. I never discounted it, 2. It's obvious that society is full of people who collaborate. In what universe are the words "zero sum" apt for my response? None. I never described a zero sum game. Obviously, the replier added the description with his biased imagination.

I'm just saying spiciness and intense rivalry and competition can lead to results beneficial to society. There are tons of examples of intense competition and rivalry leading to great results in science. The decoding of the human genome for one.

Brave is getting more and more my attention lately. I didn't migrate yet, but I am very impressed. The freshness and innovation reminds me of Opera in the early 2000.

I have been a loyal user of Firefox ever since I quit Opera (ironically for it's shitty extensions catalog at the time compared to Firefox), but now I am very frustrated by its lack of meaningful progress and the way they break things and regress quite often while ignoring the feedbacks of the community.

Firefox for Android is a joke, the tabs still behaves in a weird and confusing way, and half a year later I still don't have my extensions back.

I'm also tired by the non-integration of the Chromecast on PC and the fact that it is not even possible to get this as an extension since they killed the ecosystem years ago and didn't give back the features as promised.

Recently the synchronization stopped working on my Android, and like always with Mozilla, the only solution you will find from them to fix a bug is to reset your profile and loose everything.

If Brave implements extensions for Android, I'll definitely migrate and quit Firefox.
There is footage out there somewhere (1980s) of a cop using a tazer on a bull that got away from a rodeo. The bull just looks quietly at him as if to say "Um, you talkin to me?". Then a cowboy, on a horse, lassoes the bull and walks it back into the stadium.
I don’t know the details and would love to know. However if I were asked to “get this done”, this is what I’d do:

The user’s phone number is a unique ID as far as WhatsApp is concerned, so any metadata related to phone numbers in the “European region” (eg numbers starting with +33, +44, +49, etc) would be treated as if the 2020-era privacy policy applies.
In general, taking control away from users sets up all kind of bad incentives. For example, automatic updates with no way to downgrade save vendors from having to compete with their own older versions. This means regressions in functionality or design can be pushed out with little recourse for users other than complaining online. This is compounded by ecosystem lock-in and lack of data portability. The software industry as a whole is heading towards treating users more and more paternalistically.

The MS Edge dev channel has a basic form of tab suspending built into it now. Based on my non-rigorous testing it seems to actually save more memory than TGS ever did so I just removed the extension entirely.

It is really a shame that basic functionality like this isn't built into more browsers and we have to rely on extensions to fill the gaps just to keep memory usage under control for tab-a-holics like myself. :(
Disk isn't all that complicated. Once people figured out that apple's NVME implementation was custom, writing a driver for it wasn't all that hard, even with the t2.
To answer you first question, because historically "monopoly" is the term used. To have exclusive rights to produce a particular object is a monopoly over that production. One of the earliest instances of patent law is the "Statute of Monopolies".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statute_of_Monopolies

To answer your second question, all ownership is a restriction on the actions of others, in some way. If you own a house, what that means is that everybody else is restricted from entering that house without permission. If you own a copyright monopoly, it means that everybody else is restricted from making copies of particular books without your permission.

Where I would draw the line between "artificial" and "natural" monopolies is in how straightforward those restrictions are to apply. It is very easy to maintain restrictions on wearing a particular hat or entering a particular house. On the other hand, it is very hard to monitor all copies of a book to ensure that nobody is making additional copies of it. For one, exclusivity is a function of it being a physical object. For the other, exclusivity is not an inherent trait of the book, and is instead bolted on through legal measures.
I’ve been a huge supporter of VanillaJS for years. In my opinion, standard modern JavaScript is powerful enough to stand on its own for all of the reasons you state. The biggest problem with transpiled languages is that there is yet another level of abstraction to reason about, so debugging can become quite tricky. Many platforms already make layout and markup too abstract (JSF, Slim, to name a few).

Now, if you’re working with something like Angular, TypeScript makes sense and is portable within that ecosystem, but that’s it.

I once wrote a widget/plugin in pure JavaScript and it worked perfectly well. However, because the project’s “standard” was to use Coffeescript, I was forced to rewrite it in that. Luckily I found a Javascript to Coffeescript converter, which in the end I found extremely amusing because that of course gets compiled to Javascript, which had been written in Javascript in the first place. The resultant code looked like a bad translation of English to Italian and back to English again.

Recently I wanted to build one of Signal’s libraries so that I could use it with signal-cli. It astonished me that building this secure messenger requires automatically downloading a whole host of third-party dependencies through wget from some disparate repositories, which presumably had received little vetting.

What happened to the notion of using stable, centralized package repositories like Debian’s or Red Hat’s in order to build one’s software? I did a lot of Free Software development in the early millennium, then was away from the scene for a few years, and when I came back this desire for convenience above all else really baffles me.
The Streamdeck is just a fancy macro-pad/programmable keyboard, and those are around in several areas since decades. Especially video- and music-makers have a pretty sophisticated experience there. But

But for software-developers I don't really see the value. We alrady do have our tools for managing macros and shortcuts on regular keyboards. Macropads don't really have much value there. Usually the trend is to reduce key-estate and build elaborated layer-interfaces, not expand them and waste desk-estate.

Though, I could maybe see some value if there would be support for animations on the streamdeck, and more scriptability.

> This is a rejection of how intellectual property typically works — copyright laws exist for the express purpose of creating an artificial monopoly for your business, and FOSS licenses exist for the express purpose of breaking it.

Wrong. Copyright laws exists because we operate on the assumption that people own the fruits of their labour and have exclusive rights to those fruits unless they state otherwise.

It is as much an artificial monopoly as property rights of your phone is an artificial monopoly ... in that neither is because that is not what monopoly means.

Without attempting to put words in bjornsing's mouth, the difference that seems most relevant to me is the degree of consolidation in the corporate sphere.

Since 1989, we have seen a truly staggering wave of mergers, buyouts, and corporate consolidations of all kinds, creating so many more mega-conglomerates (like Alphabet, the big cable companies, etc) than we had before.

So if you wrote a piece of (good) open source code in 1989, chances were not too bad that it would get picked up and used competitively by a wide range of small-to-medium companies. If you wrote that same piece of code today, the chances are much higher that it would either be ignored altogether, or picked up and used anticompetitively by these megacorporations.

I know I felt a constant social pressure to learn vim or emacs over the years in order to fit in with those religions.

I gave in to that social pressure early on. But even 30 years ago in the early 90s when I started learning vim (and Linux), vim and emacs were very dated programs.

Over the course of thirty years I have managed to finally learn how to set up syntax highlighting, terminal colors, and spaces vs tabs and do a basic cut and paste operation. But the cut and paste never works in a sensible way for me and I always end up having to fix something after pasting. So I am probably still doing that wrong after thirty years. Lol.

I suggest using sshfs or Docker and then you can just use a graphical client. Even gedit is a huge advantage over vim in my opinion (especially if you also have fish in another window). I like how lightweight and simple it is and I think it's really underrated. But also VSCode, Sublime, maybe Atom. Maybe WebStorm.

There is nothing wrong with using nano in the terminal. It's more modern than vim and probably going to be much more productive. I recommend if you are embarrassed about using nano and someone asks, think of it as if someone asked you if you are Christian or Jewish. You can just say you are agnostic about editors, and use a modern tool.

Also take a look at TextAdept in the terminal. It is customizable with Lua.

I really like Jupyter Notebooks for lots of things. It's a great implementation of literate programming, especially if you take advantage of the markdown to explain things thoroughly. Of course a lot of teams are not going to like that but there are projects where you can.

Back in the early 90s there was this thing called Borland Turbo Pascal which had things like mouse usage, automatic syntax highlighting, F1 for instant contextual help, an integrated debugger. Those were the days. Lol. You can configure vim to do all of those things in kind of a janky way, but it's so convoluted, I feel like they should award a PhD if you achieve that. And they don't. So it's not worth it.

People love to glorify the "power" of vim commands. But it's not that way because the original author knew some secret to power editing. It's that way by default, because when it was created, commands and modes were the paradigm by default because of historical terminal limitations. A few people were still using Teletype at that time. Real-time editing was not even a thing.

The terminal they initially developed vi on did not have separate cursor keys. That's why it doesn't use cursor keys, not because it's some deliberate choice they made to save time and be more "advanced".

> How much do hospitals cost where you live? I'm not saying that this person wasn't an asshole, but for many people, they see no point going to the hospital if it's going to leave them in the red.

This happens even in countries with universal healthcare - the "needing money for a cab to get to the hospital" is a well known scam; the dedicated ones learn how to keep a wound open and bleeding constantly. (There was a notorious one near where I live, who managed to keep a bone exposed, allegedly - never seen him, so can't comment further on that).

The interesting thing here is that now, when they own the CPU and GPU, and when MacOS is free, they probably might be more open to letting anyone install any OS on it. You want a Linux/BSD/Windows on M1, and you're not hurting any of their possible revenue streams, so why the hell not let you buy their hardware and throw whatever OS on it.

Somebody wants to copy the hardware over and sell it for half price? Yeah, good luck reproducing the M1.

Opening the boot loader to allow for Linux is quite an opposite of a middle finger, tbh. I don't know if they will divert some guys from working on MacOS towards Linux support, but this is already looking much better than before.
