I still think this sentence here is not quite precise enough:

> All of the most important software of our lifetime is going through this relicensing effort as the creators attempt to capture the value of what it enables.

To me this sounds like the relicensing is done so that a few programmers finally can get paid for their hard labor while maintaining critical software we're all using. What's actually happening here is that some creators have convinced a few investors that they'll be able to give a huge return on invest by building up a sales department around the product. And now the realize that they're not able to accomplishing that with their original license.

It's a perfectly acceptable business strategy, but it's not necessarily the only way of running an open source project.

I'm still hoping that we (the open source community) can find even better ways of ensuring high-quality software remain open source without being so dependent on current mindset of investors.
So TypeScript is Microsoft, and React is Facebook, but all the rest of those are Google. Shouldn't we be a bit concerned about that?

Like, it seems like it should be fine, given that TensorFlow is part of their core AI mission, and they're heavily invested in Go, and Android probably isn't going anywhere. But people once thought that Java and MySQL were safe in the hands of Sun, too.

Hi thanks for that. I'm using the Firebase Auth out of the box, basically just methods like - fb.login(), fb.logout(), was not even thinking that Firebase could be insecure tbh.
YMMV. My formerly technically competent mother can no longer learn new skills. We've tried for years to teach her how to text, initiate FaceTime, play Word with Friends, etc.

My advice to future eldercare providers is to pick a tech stack, lock down those skills, and then stick to it.
Sure, it's quite possible that not every single one ever is. One single version of one single library not being yanked doesn't mean that nobody ever does it.

Thanks, that really helps a lot. I tried googling of course, but since there are special "balanced amps" (nothing to do with L/R balance) this became almost impossible.
Not just the iMac Pro. They can't replace the Intel 27" iMac with the M1 because it would have worse multicore performance.
The chin bar lines up with the ports (USB and power) on the back, and is probably where the speakers are.

So I think they prioritized thinness, which meant there was not enough room for screen+board+ports stacked, and they had to offset them. It's probable that the whole SoC and board are in the chin, given how small they are in the MacBook Air/Pro:

I would not be surprised if the sensor is permanently paired to the keyboard's controller chip, and then there's a load of security involved there to keep you from swapping the sensor on the keyboard itself.

Still, better to replace a $100 wireless keyboard than a $1200 computer.
They are critical to only a small group of people at any given time. That's part of the challenge.

Eventually we all benefit from them, but at any given point they are out of sight and out of mind. That causes people to not really care.
> And Apple courting current TV Station to put out an App for their current livestream content. Essentially replacing Over the Air Broadcast with Broadcast via IP.

This is already a reality in Finland.

I haven't owned an antenna cable for over 5 years. All my TV comes directly through the internet from each channel's own app. Most provide live TV or at least make digital releases available at the same time as the live broadcast. (Not that I watch "live" TV anymore, since I don't do sports - which IMO are the only thing where being live actually matters)

My LG TV is just a large monitor for me. The only use it gets is when I need to adjust volume for my consoles or turn the TV on/off. With the new ATV remote it'll be relegated to a fancy console volume controller =)
yeah, not really sure why I would update the apple tv 4k

Of course I can blame them. More for being full of shit than anything else.
This type of incident is exactly why I dislike identity federation as a service. Yes it's difficult to get right, and you open yourself up to additional risk and technical complexity to do the federation yourself, but simultaneously how many businesses are currently completely down and just sitting on their hands waiting for Auth0's engineers to fix their systems?
If we want to bark up this tree, a larger problem is FAANG inventing technologies that assume you have equivalent baseline competency and maturity.

Which leads to companies that do not (eg no CICD or data architecture standard) adopting tools that assume they do (k8s & tensorflow).

(And yes, I realize this is because most folks who work at the former aspire to jump ship to the latter)

The threat of being penalized through the tort system encourages public awareness and incentivizes districts to do the right thing. That's what I mean by discipline.
But if my proprietary SaaS only uses Grafana for monitoring but its key purpose is doing something else entirely, I can no longer use Grafana unless I also publish my SaaS under AGPLv3, right?

What if I release my own SaaS as AGPLv3? Do others, who rely on it, also have to license their software under AGPLv3? I think this kills many business cases.

Am I missing some key point?
True. Even though Parsees escaped Iran to flee Islamic persecution one day, they have become Indians. Identifying them as "Iranians" is dumb.

My wife's a respiratory therapist and she went through a similar experience. We have to remember though that the medical systems of parts of both China and Italy were overrun, leading to a spike in deaths because they couldn't get care, and we had no idea if it would happen in the US. Our goal with the lockdowns and everything else was to lower the maximum number of people in the hospital at any one time. Well the other end of that was to maximize hospital capacity. That necessitated maximizing labor and minimizing waste of things like masks which experienced global shortages.

Note too that covid workers were highly compensated for their work, at least where I live. Our annual income doubled last year because of her work in the covid units. The issue isn't a financial one, but from dealing first-hand with so much death, suffering, and stress on a daily basis.

The data referenced in the essay is from 2007 to 2018. While COVID has undoubtable taken a toll on healthcare workers, I’m not sure what the takeaway is here and it feels like there is a grasp at a narrative that suggests COVID is causing more nurse suicides (especially the way the piece is titled). I’m not sure there’s any data to support such a conclusion or if there is it wasn't presented in the essay.

I'm not trying to sound indifferent to the struggles of healthcare workers echoed in the piece, simply the essay, as presented, left me unsure about drawing conclusions.
Another static site generator huh? I would love to hear what you are doing differently :)

Assuming a client has no direct access to the Postgres server, I'd say you neither need to publish your changes to Postgres, nor put the web application under AGPL. Just because your web application uses Postgres as a storage for data, in a way it could also just use SQLite or MariaDB instead, does not make it a "derivative work". #notalawyer
The purpose of the function is to update any entity that legitimately has your name/address as to your new address. It's used by Magazine publishers to automatically update your subscription addresses. It's also used by companies you've done business with but might not have updated your address info such as a specialist doctor you visited once or your old insurance company.

I personally think that's of more value than stopping junk mailers from sending me personalized junk mail. You're going to get the junk mail either way.
This is the first iPad Pro with hardware virtualization support.

It sounds like Confluent doesn't get what the real problem is. There's 2 ways developers who also sell hosting end up losing all their market share to players like Amazon:

1. The big players like Amazon make custom, proprietary modifications to the software they're hosting, and since they're not technically distributing it, they don't have to release the changes, giving them an unfair advantage. This is the exact loophole that the AGPL closes.

2. Sometimes, the big players are just better/more efficient at hosting the exact same software the exact same way. There's nothing unfair or unethical about this; it's how the free market is meant to work that customers flock to them.

Confluent is trying to "fix" the second "problem", which rather than making anything more fair, just makes it unfair in their favor.
The only thing stopping you is Facebook's tech team. It's basically an arms race between the scrapers and anti-scraping tech.
The iPad now has hardware virtualisation support. Indicative of big changes to iPadOS coming at WWWDC in June, or just a case of it being cheaper to only manufacture M1 vs both M1 and something like an A14X?
Yeah, I'm sorry about that. Was not ready for it. Had to disable commenting completely. Will be fixed asap.
I think the idea is that Ethernet is rarely touched while the USB ports would be quite a bit more. You don’t ever need to access the Ethernet cable except in very few circumstances.
> They create and sell at reasonable price.

I'm afraid there's no evidence whatsoever that makers sell at lower prices than speculators. Everyone sells for as much as possible. There's nothing magic about speculators that enable them to get higher prices.

> And they want to buy at lower price before other people can buy at that lower price.

Every buyer tries to do that.

> They don't contribute anything.

Yes, they do. They provide liquidity, and reduce volatility. For example, the only reason a seller sells to a speculator is if the speculator offers to sell at a higher price than others. The only reason a buyer buys from a speculator is the speculator is offering it at a lower price than others.

There is no magic "speculator market" that operates under different rules and different prices.
IANAL

a) postgres is not user facing, so no

Thanks for the recommendations. Since, I dont work on the field as closely and mostly on a observatory capacity. Ill take a look at the recommendations.
Facebook wants to "normalize" the idea that large scale scraping of user data from social networks like its own is a common occurrence

Get people used to the truth? Shock, horror!

I mean, certainly Facebook rose to it's position through a sort of opposite claim, that a user could be "public" (visible to a wide circle of friends-of-friends-of-etc) but not public (visible to Russian hackers, Brazilian botmasters or whoever). This claim is kind of a fairy tale, something that no only isn't true but couldn't be true. "This information is public to anyone who creates an account but not public en masse to the world". Still, the claim made an average FB user feel safer (and lot of people "got on the Internet" in a big way through FB circa ~2010). And it's got a lot of traction now. But since the situation is fundamentally porous, now that FB is large, it seems it's in their legal interest to drop the bullshit and just say "if it's public, it's public, what the hell else do you expect".

And yeah, the exploitation of public data arguably lead to all sorts of bad effects and it would have been and would be nice to head this off in some fashion. But imagining you can this off by maintain a "quote-public versus totally-public" distinction isn't one of those ways.
MacBook 2022 concept based on the new Apple iMac
You keep saying we. There is no we in this CHOICE (your assumed moral obligation notwithstanding).
The anti-tivoization rules only apply if:

1. the software is conveyed in a "User Product", and

2. that conveyance occurs as part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of that product is transferred to the recipient.

A "User Product" is defined as 'either (1) a “consumer product”, which means any tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation into a dwelling'.

In other words, it only covers software that is installed on actual physical hardware when that hardware is sold (or rented, etc) to the consumer.

For a sale of a service, it is completely out of scope.

This is probably the most misunderstood clause in GPLv3, with people thinking that it some sort of general anti-DRM clause. Almost everybody, for example, thinks that it is why you can't have GPLv3 code on the Apple app store, but because it only applies to conveyances that are part of the transaction by which you acquire your iPhone or iPad it in fact does not apply to software purchased later from the app store. Apple's app store DRM is perfectly compatible with GPLv3.

The incompatibility between the app store and GPL is that the license agreement for the app store says you won't redistribute the app or reverse engineer it. GPL does not allow adding additional license restrictions like that, and so you can't satisfy both the app store license and GPL.

> The whole point I was getting at was distribution. Sure you have n households in the country, but nothing says that n/10 need to live in just one or two counties of that country. Even if you get the green light to build more, it will be very expensive to do so, and you will have population density/congestion issues.

Nobody is forcing everyone to all live in one place. Some combination of lifestyle, economic opportunities, and other stuff makes people want to do that. Locals complain that housing is expensive in SV, but housing is expensive because of a vicious cycle, promulgated by locals, that made it that way.

A different set of policies would have prevented the vicious cycle and made housing cheaper and more abundant. In this alternate universe, with smarter housing policy, more people could be living in SV with less traffic congestion for less total cost. The only downside is that locals wouldn't have been able to sell their houses for 20x what they paid.

You can either: accept that an area is desirable and make accommodations for housing the people who want to come; or accept that housing is going to be expensive. Or I guess you can just kill all the newcomers and eat them. Normally, though, we like to at least pretend that we live in a civilized society. As a positive side-effect, being known for cannibalism does stand a good chance of reducing your locale's desirability on the lifestyle front! So maybe try that one first and let us know how it goes.

In other words, you can learn from California's example or your can make the same mistakes. Your choice.

> They are seeing influxes in some areas, but it's not an even distribution.

Sure, but it is making the distribution within the US as a whole more uniform.

> They aren't really complaining about spreading out but more about the problems created when going against the established customs, or bringing the same problems with them (taxes, property values, etc)

That's my point. They are not bringing the problems. They are coming, and locals are creating the problems by following the same bad policies that failed for locals in California. Yes, that does mean some things will change. You can't stop the change, but you do get to choose its character.
IANAL, but as I understand it:

a) Yes, if Postgres is exposed to users for some reason. Your changes to Postgres are a derivative work of the original, and thus covered under the AGPL.

b) No. Your application is not a derivative work of Postgres, any more than it's a derivative work of whatever OS you're using.
Yes, that is the functionality I use now, and what I want this button to activate. Except without the other phone/mac involved in the process.
They'd probably turn this IM into family friendly safe bay with strictly moderated content - because let's be honest, nowadays anything goes in. Discord accounts at first would be offered an optional merge with MSA and in long time, you'd have to log into using MSA credentials only. Microsoft Discord branding would arrive. There would be a business oriented version created and MS would abandon Teams; basic Discord would have ads related to your activity - you could avoid that (along with telemetry) by purchasing a subscription as the current monetization options would be removed. A special version with github/git related features would be created - for free, but only for those who are really using it in code related tasks.
Note:

Discord has 14x more active users than Slack.

Discord has a technology and feature superset over Slack.

If ipad’s limitations were arbitrary they wouldn’t exist. The product design is shaped by the use cases it optimizes for. This is no different than saying a GPU has arbitrary limitations for running general C++ code. In some sense yes, you could make a single thread c++ compiler target the GPU, but 1) it wouldnt fit the design well and 2) changing the design to make it work well would mess up the original intended use case.
USB-C devices are the kind that you plug and unplug constantly. Unlike the power cord or Ethernet.
People build communities on Discord. They should monetize that.
Plenty of very good DSLRs come at 1080p, exactly like this webcam. And they take better photos and videos than many sensors out there stuffed with unnecessary pixels.

Using resolution as a shorthand for actual image quality doesn't reflect the reality of how cameras work, never mind that full HD already pushes the limits of most people's streaming capabilities (both video encoding and bandwidth).
That's the thing, Zigbee isn't 802.11/wifi based, it IS a radio, but has really great range for low bandwidth purposes like turning a light on or off, and runs from 784-915Mhz (depending on country).

It sounds like they isolated tasks that are performed frequently enough and need no specialization and decided to outsource these. Maybe as a stopgap before they get completely automated.

I don't think these were ever intended as entry level to something else.
Wormhole.app mentions that the transfer is p2p AND that the encrypted files are stored on the server for 24 hours. Does the client send two streams (1 to server - 1 p2p)? What happens e.g. if the receiver client comes online during an ongoing upload to the server?

$20 million sounds like a lot to "improve cyber security", but I'm not involved in that industry. Can anyone with relevant experience share if that's a realistic budget?

I’ve recently moved to a house with a wood burner / back boiler and I can’t wait to replace it. It’s made me appreciate what a huge upgrade natural gas boilers were. I spend a minimum of 15 mins a day chopping kindling, fetching wood, starting and feeding the fire. It’s not cheap and it’s not warm! It’s been fun and makes you appreciate your consumption more but the novelty only goes so far!
