Exactly, what Amazon did isn't just legal, it is explicitly specified as OK by the license that the elastic search team selected for their code.
Elastic was an open source project, and now it's not. This was done because they believe it will be more profitable. It does affect you, especially if you contributed to the project, in which case they're basically spitting in your face as thanks for your hard work. This is not materially different from when Oracle infamously killed OpenSolaris, something they were rightfully crucified for by the community.

They're not wrong about Amazon misinformation, use of trademarks, and so on, and should have pursued the legal remedies for this more deeply. Called them out publically, and shamed them like this post attempts to do. But, if it didn't work, tough shit. It has nothing to do with the license. They made a contrat with their community when they choose an open source license.

>We created Elasticsearch; we care about it more than anyone else.

No, you didn't. Elasticsearch is the combined work of thousands of contributors.

Aside: using "Free & Open" in your messaging is a pretty low move, deliberately designed to mislead users.
Speaking of Itanium, if the x86 dam has truly burst, I'd much rather see something more like the Itanium than RISC-V. Something new.

It's a shame the Mill is so secretive, actually, they're design is rather nice.
The same applies to blasphemy laws IMHO.
I think most people just wanted Amazon to take the administrative overhead away from them. Amazon saw that gap.

>It is increasingly worrying because when people are exposed to the other side, they immediately « catch fire », wonder why they have been lied to, and never trust public broadcasting anymore.

Compare this to people who watch commercial TV, see an opposing view, and immediately wonder why they're currently being lied to, and go back to trusting their single source of commercial programming.
Does this also hold when using drivers like the ones built by Trinamic? A servo is essentially a feedback control loop, ensuring your motor will slow down if is reaching its torque limit. As I understood the data sheet for the Trinamic controllers, they can measure various parameters (e.g. back EMF, applied current,...). Cooperating with the motion controller, a similar feedback loop can be implemented. (Thinking about this, a servo would need to "talk" to the motion controller as well anyway - if the motion is lagging behind due to a torque limit, the motion controller needs to compensate for that instead of just scheduling motion on an independent axis).
> I think they are saying that when you tell people something is acceptable, then they can only assume it actually is acceptable to you.

I think that is false. Most things that are said assume that the listener will self-moderate. If I have Crohn's or IBS and I post a sign on my front-lawn saying "bathroom free to use for those in need" I'm not expecting you to pull up a tour-bus full of tourists, move into it and use it as housing, or a sex den for turning tricks. I mean, I should clarify my sign, but honestly if you don't meet me half-way with self-moderation, you are the reason we can't have nice things.

Above all, make sure you always leave money on the table, _especially_ if you are the bigger party.
Totally reasonable argument, and I think most would be better off with an independent, US-based foundry.

Unfortunately, I doubt that the US government functions well enough at this point to recognize the threat and overcome the influence Intel's money would wield against the effort.
Sure thing. That's the reason for many services they created.

But they usually tend to build their own alternative that integrates better into their eco-system.
The worst part is the intercom systems which are standard in every home. Not only do you hear the doorbell and the knock, but they get to broadcast their face directly into your private space! (I have since disabled the camera / audio feed but it spooked me more than a few times!)
The reason we prefer inflation is because there is a history of wild swings going from boom to bust. We do not level out at a spot where people have “enough” and retire but instead the economy swings into deep recession and people can’t feed themselves and go homeless.

Around the early 1900s we discovered that with careful application of stimulus we can even out these cycles and soften their impact - an innovation that has dramatically reduced human suffering over the past 100 years.
I was told many of the more predatory players from Microsoft left to join Microsoft in the last few years. I need to look into this though.

It's not a lot, it's pretty standard. The chances of getting into any of them are very low these days, some schools get thousands of apps for 100-200 spots, leaving an acceptance rate of 5-10%. I'd wager they WANT this to improve their "Newsweek" Ratings, shake my head, think of all the shortages of doctors are bright-eyed 23 year olds who get rejected and have to repeat the process, all to maintain exclusivity (and due to limits on how many residents/interns we can train at once).

I didn't apply to the top-tier schools. I knew my GPA would be an algorithmic non-starter, a human wouldn't even look at a GPA under 3.5 in many schools. Also, I'm a white male biological sciences major, not exactly a rare type for medical schools applicants.

Keep in mind, UChicago Bio Sciences had courses I was required to take, that had graduate students and actual medical students in them, that had the median student with an 80 average. How sadistic is that? A classroom full of brilliant students, and half of them will get C's and D's? You can guess which half I was in...

In the end, it may have been a blessing, because MD school is VERY expensive and time-consuming, and I would've been a poor doctor like family medicine or pediatrician, so I'd be financially way worse off and probably a lot more stressed if I had succeeded down that path.

But there is nothing preventing doing that and running a fork of Elastic, it's cheap enough.

I would do the same if I were AWS.
Yeah that's probably true but you can do something similar with the encoded audio (change the bits of the quantized frequency domain representation in whatever codec they use). But that would get lost on reencoding in a different format, probably.
Glancing at the referenced lawsuits[1,2], the point of contention is not that Elastic's open source code is being used. It's that a.) Elastic feels its trademark is being abused in a manner that misrepresents the relationship between Elastic and Amazon, and b.) that Open Distro incorporates code in a manner that explicitly violates Elastic's licensing.

I don't believe the issue most are taking here is the license itself that elasticsearch now has, I think its the relicensing of existing contributions (ironically including those from AWS and their employees) which were originally under a true, well-accepted and liberal FOSS license.

If elasticsearch had this license from day one, that would be fair enough, but many people do not freely contribute time and effort to improving something which is not freely available to all others (whether individual or large corporation).

Elasticsearch is self-victimising here when they are arguably exploiting FOSS contributors good will (though due to the CLA what they are doing is most definitely legal).
I've been at the receiving end of Elastics selling tactics and pricing. Elastic is the new Oracle was my conclusion. IIRC the pricing was along the lines of $12k per CPU Core or GB of RAM. Straight from the nineties.
The part that worries me is AOCs Truth & Reconciliation Commission. Sounds way to similar to re-education camps and ministry of truths elsewhere
>'There are happy & fulfilled people in every career and, of course, unhappy people in every career / walk of life. But pretty much everyone wants the same thing in their career: mission, autonomy, impact, and creativity.

These traits ^ are mostly independent of a specific job / field'

I think this is untrue. It depends on how one understands mission, autonomy, impact and creativity whether they can be achieved independent what specific job one works. If by creativity you mean self-expression, few jobs give you the space for true self-expression, rather than expression within the confines of instrumental problem-solving. If by autonomy you mean the ability to choose one's own tasks then, again, few jobs allow that. If by impact you mean the probable consequences one's work will have for the good of humankind, then clearly one can - and people do - try and rank more and less impactful work, among which there is wide variance. There are a small number of jobs which are extremely high-impact, e.g., working on nuclear proliferation, public health in the global south, climate change. Most jobs have a real but comparatively mundane impact. 'Mission' is entirely relative to the person, not the job.

Is it really so easy?

Doesn't elastic also use Amazon trademarks in their code and documentation? (e.g. ec2, etc..)? I'm not a licence expert, but maybe if you have a have a legal licence to run it, you probably can also name it like that?
"And to be clear, this change most likely has zero effect on you, our users. It has no effect on our customers that engage with us either in cloud or on premises."

No, that's just not true. So many users, from small hobby side-projects, to large open source projects, and mega-corps care about the licensing of dependencies, each for their own reason, and will not want to build on top of proprietary software that imposes draconian licensing terms.

It doesn't matter what they say, read the license. It's vague and there is no legal precedent. It's a big risk for anyone who cares about licensing issues for their projects.
Keep this in mind. Whenever you are the oppressor you have to either justify it as 'just moral retribution' or the violence as a 'very small and necessary evil' to prevent a huge catastrophe.. Both sides in the US have the same thinking. They are the good guys no matter what...

The military seem to be, frankly, much better trained than the police.

The US military has lots of recent experience in managing situations far more dangerous involving civilians in Afghanistan and The middle East. In contrast the US police are infamously shoot-first questions-later.

>not participating in the capitalist economy

Does this definition include people who actively refusing to be employed, or is there any kind of law obligations to work?
I was objecting to the extreme situation in the middle age where in theory, war was a god given right that flowed from the top. I tend to think that democracies live on a spectrum. What you would call hypocrisy, I would call it finding ways to deal with the current contradictions of people aspirations. It's always the first stepping stone.

One advantage of a political system accepting hypocrisy and compartimentalization as statecraft tools is that at some point in the future, it will have to reconcile parts of its actions with its stated values.
While the imagery is evocative, scale of usage isn't a factor in open source licenses, so the metaphor sort of breaks apart. Sun found that out the hard way -- IBM probably profited off Java way more than pre-acquisition Sun.

Trademark law is complicated enough that I can imagine several scenarios where owning "Elastic" does not allow you to prescribe Amazon's use of "Elasticsearch Service", or at least where there's enough of a question of law as to allow the matter to proceed to rather expensive litigation.

Also:

>Our efforts to resolve the problem with Amazon failed, forcing us to file a lawsuit. NOT OK.

This and several other sentences alleging illegal behavior on the part of Amazon seem suspicious to me. When I hear someone say that they had to sue another company, but provide no further details of the suit, then I can only assume that their lawsuit was summarily dismissed by the judge. Otherwise, they'd talk about the litigation - there is no legal condition I could think of where you would be allowed to disclose the existence of a lawsuit and make general allegations about a company, but not disclose the existence of at least a settlement agreement, if not a legal judgment.

Does anyone know if Elastic's Amazon lawsuit went anywhere?
There must be some Thai readers on HN.. even ones who support these lèse-majesté laws.

I'm curious, for Thai supporters, what is the justification for them?
Yes, you are not wrong that the Internet is a network of computers and that it is essentially impossible to “kick someone off” if they are technical enough.

That isn’t the point. The point is that free speech is both law and culture. Clinging to the notions of what is “legal free speech” is ignoring the cultural consequences of restricting it. Society is not a computer program that runs on laws.

When Amazon, Facebook, Twitter, Google, and Apple all decide that you shall not be heard, you’re locked out from the 99.99% of the population that has zero understanding of how to access things via the URL bar. Remember that a huge portion of people just type in “Facebook” on Google and click the first link. Facebook itself is “the Internet” to billions of people. The percentage of people that are capable of setting up their own server and website is quite small.

Maybe this seems academic to Americans, but these same social media companies actively encouraged the uprisings in the Middle East a decade ago. Do you understand that if they had instead said, “Nah, we are banning this”, political opposition would have been essentially impossible, because the average person can use Facebook and Twitter but sure as hell isn't going to type in some obscure URL and organize a protest that way.

This is not about the letter of the law or how the internet works. It’s about democratizing technology so that the people have a fighting chance against those with power.

It's also worth noting that advertising is nearly a necessity in an industrialized society. Production of goods has high capital upfront costs and marginal costs that become negligible at scale. You can't get that scale without advertising or a government-mandated monopoly. Or, at least, you can't get that scale quickly enough.
> "When the service launched, imagine our surprise when the Amazon CTO tweeted that the service was released in collaboration with us. It was not. And over the years, we have heard repeatedly that this confusion persists. NOT OK."

This just means their CTO was sloppy, Amazon legal department would have never allowed that tweet.

> "So imagine our surprise when Amazon launched their service in 2015 based on Elasticsearch and called it Amazon Elasticsearch Service. We consider this to be a pretty obvious trademark violation. NOT OK."

This is a trademark violation indeed though IANAL, it doesn't require a change to the license to attack them for that. Definitely an abuse of power by Amazon though, completely not ok as they don't care about paying a fine for that, they have all the money in the world. But again, not related to the license thing.

> "When Amazon announced their Open Distro for Elasticsearch fork, they used code that we believe was copied by a third party from our commercial code and provided it as part of the Open Distro project. We believe this further divided our community and drove additional confusion. "

Elastic was known to mix proprietary and open source code and it got to a point where few people knew what was open source and what was not. Many people were not happy with this situation and elastic.co was abusing the situation to charge paid licenses as people were scared of using proprietary code without knowing. The work amazon did to remove all proprietary code from they fork was actually welcomed by the community though I'm not surprised they missed some as it was really hard to tell.

> This is why Intel needs to be split in two. Yes, integrating design and manufacturing was the foundation of Intel’s moat for decades, but that integration has become a straight-jacket for both sides of the business. Intel’s designs are held back by the company’s struggles in manufacturing, while its manufacturing has an incentive problem.

The only comparable data point says that this is a terrible idea. AMD spun out GlobalFoundries after a deep slide in their valuation, and the stock (as well as the company's reputation) remained in the doldrums for several years after that. Chipmaking is a big business and there are many advantages to vertical integration when both sides of the company function appropriately. If you own the fabs and there is a surge in demand (as we see now at the less extreme end of the lithography spectrum), your designs get preferential treatment.

Intel's problem isn't the structure of the company, it's the execution. Swan was not originally intended as the permanent replacement to Krzanich[0], and it's a bit strange to draw conclusions about whether the company can steer away from the rocks when the new captain isn't even going to take the helm until the middle of next month.

People are viewing Intel's suggestion that it may use TSMC's fabs for some products as a negative for Intel, but I just see it as a way to exert pressure on AMD's gross margin by putting some market demand pressure on the extreme end of the lithography spectrum (despite sustained demand in TSMC's HPC segment, TSMC's 7nm+ and 5nm are not the main driver of current semiconductor shortages).

Switching to SSPL feels more like retribution than a fix for the problem. But sadly nothing can be done if Amazon is willing to flagrantly steal your trademark.

At least switching to SSPL might bubble the related trademark issue up to a higher-paid set of lawyers within the Amazon monstrosity, and maybe it'll get resolved.

I'm not a lawyer either, but as I understand it, a trademark is violated if it's likely to confuse people into thinking the product/service is from the trademark holder when it actually isn't. If Amazon's CEO experienced such confusion himself, that does sound like a slam dunk to me.

FTA: When the service launched, imagine our surprise when the Amazon CTO tweeted that the service was released in collaboration with us. It was not. And over the years, we have heard repeatedly that this confusion persists. NOT OK.
Clearly not. It's anyone opposed to the woke culture and neo-liberalism camouflaged in a social democratic platform.
