> Another way is to eliminate the dependency

That'll resolve the violation for future releases. However, all previous releases are still infringing.

For a violating company who really doesn't want to open source their project, their best bet would probably be to (remove the dependency and) pay damages for previous infringement.

You'd hope damages in a case like this would be small given it went unnoticed for so long. Considering the shared-mime-info project itself is not commercial software, there probably wasn't significant damage to the project or the authors.
This comparison presumes a false choice between either close governance by China, or governance that resembles the old British order ("tycoon feudalism").

This was handled quite poorly -- a different course of action could have avoided all the chaos while also resolving the GPL violation.

As the GPL FAQ states:

> If a programming language interpreter has a license that is incompatible with the GPL, can I run GPL-covered programs on it? (#InterpreterIncompat)

> When the interpreter just interprets a language, the answer is yes. The interpreted program, to the interpreter, is just data; the GPL doesn't restrict what tools you process the program with.

In mimemagic's case, similar logic could apply:

* mimemagic could redistribute the GPL licensed freedesktop.org.xml file. This redistributed file would retain the original GPL license and its terms.

* mimemagic could then read the freedesktop.org.xml file at run time and generate whatever data structures it needs. mimemagic would continue to be MIT licensed without violating the GPL license.

The problem is that mimemagic includes Ruby code generated from the GPL licensed XML file, and it could be argued that this makes part of mimemagic a derivative of a GPL licensed work. They just needed to stop doing that.

Of course I can't point this out to the repository owner now that the repo has been archived and thus commenting is now disabled.

I think much of the reason that these kinds of discussions are chaotic is that we are so unaccustomed to thinking about what formal principles and tools that self-governed communities might decide to use. In the case of reddit, there is a tension between Reddit the company and it's use of the top-down power it has, and Reddit the admin community, and the general user community.

You know who is less represented in the upper class than black people? Poor people. If you fix that problem this one goes away.
Those are important questions and nobody knows for sure yet. Another of the challenges is capacity planning. Since the footprint is so much smaller, there will presumably be much more significant spikes in traffic and load. Like when CIS is in town or something. Throw in all the variations like GPU or FPGA (which may be more common on edge), and it becomes challenging to balance available capacity vs cost.

My guess is edge business model will be more like long term commitment than spin up and down at will.

The stated purpose of feminizing/masculinizing hormone therapy is specifically to alter secondary sexual characteristics in a feminizing or masculinizing direction, respectively - so yours seems to be a comparatively uncommon use of such HT. Given that "medical gatekeeping" is merely a fact of life that applies to all sorts of substances and that there are also many arguments for gatekeeping access to steroids specifically, the proactive step forward for people like you would be to get your specific medical need described in the medical research literature so that, in the longer run, policies around access to steroids can be changed to more naturally encompass cases like yours. Blaming GC positions for such issues is just not very sensible.

This is a phenomenon all over reddit and not unique to this situation in subreddit comments sections, it's been going on ever since reddit rolled out the paid gold concept. A non-zero number of people edit their comments (when they get popular) to the like of "stop giving me awards, go donate to this charity instead" to try and get readers to spend their money on a good cause related to the post subject matter. (I love animals subreddits, so see it a lot in the various places "go donate to this shelter / coservation" or similar attempt to redirect money)

I took up birding as a new hobby during the pandemic. (Apparently this is a "thing" - aka lots of new "pandemic" birders.) I really got into it, and bird photography is a big part of it as well.

Anyway, knowing where best to find birds is always a question. eBird is an excellent resource, but I don't think it answers the most important questions as easily as it could.

- What birds can I expect to see in my area at this time of year? (e.g. What SHOULD I be on the lookout for?)

- Where can I best find a particular species in my area?

eBird provides a huge 100 GB data dump. I aggregated it for my purposes down into a 2+ GB SQLite database and created this website. It works for any region. Try it out!
OKRs – Pro-tips and mistakes to avoid, from Ally CEO
I wish MicroCenter would work on their customer experience. I go to one in Cambridge, MA to buy IoT supplies and it's never organized (despite signs saying "this area stocked by XYZ"), popular products are behind the service counter and not even in the main area (so you have to ask) and associates rush to stick their associate ID barcode on your merchandise and usually at check out another associate takes it off and puts theirs on. Perverse incentives for sales staff and poor customer experience.

But they often do loss-leaders on popular things to get folks in the store, so...
Reddit has created such a toxic community that they have to enforce special rules to insulate themselves from their creation.
This is a very serious allegation. She says she was in the house off and on, and it appears she had a complicated relationship with her father (this is not at all surprising given the context).

I had a similar reaction when comparing software engineering to other professions. My brother is a lawyer, and he has to do continuing legal education (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuing_legal_education).

I'm not sure that we software engineers need to spend all our free time on leetcode and answering StackOverflow questions, but reading a book about something outside of normal work hours seems like pretty tame stakes.

I had to resort to...gasp...ordering a pre-built system. I first ordered a Razer Tomahawk - which is a NUC coupled with a 3080 Founders Edition. It was about $3300.

The next day I saw I could get an HP Omen which was much more maxed out (including physical space) - including a 10 core processor, 64GB of RAM, etc and a 3090 with 24GB RAM for about the same price.

I feel shameful for having to purchase a pre-built machine, but it was the only way I could get one since my contact at NVIDIA left the company. On the bright side, if I don’t like the machine, I can resell just the GPU and recoup almost the entire costs.

Unsurprisingly, you can no longer order either machine.

> The test suite is supposed to be canonical, whereas the 'specification' hasn't been kept up to date with language evolution.

This is so disappointing. Feels like the language over time has lost everything that made it interesting. PUGS for example.
Maybe a good example could be the recursion pattern in Elixir. This is considered almost a base element of the language. Typically in Elixir recursion and "guards", are used instead of things like for-loops and if-else statements in other languages.

Take a basic factorial function in Elixir:

defmodule Math do
def factorial(0), do: 1
def factorial(n), do: n * factorial(n - 1)
end

There is almost nothing there that isn't directly representative of the base math equation itself (which, by convention, treats the result of factorial(0) as equal to 1). The function order is important in this case, the first is a "guard" that prevents the second from being executed when the firsts case is met. At this point the module exits out of the second function by multiplying the (silently) accumulated result by 1 and returning it.

Versus, in JS:

function factorial(n) {
if (n == 0) {
return 1;
} else {
return (n * factorial(n - 1));
}
}

It's not too bad, but the if-else, comparison, multiple return statements and nested brackets at the second return are all done away with in the Elixir version.

Further, recursion is not something many programmers reach for first when working in many other languages, perhaps out of habit, or maybe of the concern that extending such implementations later can become difficult. As such, most programmers might implement the above as more something like:

function factorial(n) {
if (n === 0 || n === 1) return 1;
for (var i = (n - 1); i >= 1; i--) {
n *= i;
}
return n;
}

Compared to the Elixir code, many steps are required to read and understand this. When this type of laboured patterning is expanded out into a larger project, with many interlocking parts, it may quickly become difficult to work with, and can become necessary, and necessarily difficult, to refactor into something simpler, which then may require rethinking the entire process.

In term of CPU, the hardware is similarly shitty. For the GPU, the Librem 5 has a better GPU. In plasma mobile, the current bottleneck is on the GPU side, so maybe the Librem 5 can offer better performance but I'm not sure the improvements are worth $600 more.
> political correctness has silenced important discussions our society needs to have

It would be interesting to know what are these "important discussions".

> 58% of Americans believe the political climate prevents them from sharing their own political beliefs

I don't think it literally prevents them, more like it makes them scared to share their political beliefs for fear of being called out when those are not "acceptable" beliefs. If anyone can give me an example of some political belief that is not justified in being "unacceptable", I'd be happy to re-evaluate this situation as being bad.
The surprising thing to me is that in previous eras the plebes didn’t have access to data or education or literacy to maybe realize this, but what is the plebe’s excuse nowadays? Only one I can come up with is many of the plebe’s think they’re eventually going to not be plebes.

I also learned Perl in the 90s. I loved it at the time, as it was so much easier than writing C code to parse a config or do basic text manipulation (was working at an ISP). Hearing about the "future of Perl" feels a bit like pondering the future of VHS tapes. Perl exists, and as far as I'm concerned, it is a finished product. There are countless language options that have come onto the scene since it was in its heyday, and that leaves me wondering what the goals are regarding reinventing or reimagining Perl. Who is the target audience? What is the target problem space, and why can't those issues be tackled within the modern language ecosystem? I'm not knocking the effort or initiative. I'm genuinely curious.

Imho, D's choice to be garbage collected has prevented wider adoption (that's the case for my usage at least). And as a compiled gc language, it competes squarely with golang, something that's likely hard to do, given the corporate (google) support golang has.
