You're pulling at straws here.

If I'm writing a program under GPL, and I want to incorporate a component with a BSD license, I can do that and continue to license the entire program to my users under the GPL.

If I'm writing a program under BSD, and I want to incorporate a component with a GPL license, I can't do that and continue to license the entire program to my users under the BSD. That's the difference, and surely that's what the OP is referring to.

Suppose someone comes along and finds my program, and wants to modify it and release it without providing the source. Before, when I could license the whole program as BSD, they could do that. After I incorporated a single file's worth of GPL code, they can't do that. Because it's no longer possible for me to license my program as BSD.

Also, note that there's absolutely no guarantee that users can "take that library from your source repository and use it for their own purposes without abiding by the GPL". I am under no obligation to provide a BSD-licensed copy of the original library. If I make modifications to the library before I push it to my repository, I do still have to keep the copyright notice intact, but I am not providing anyone with a BSD library. My modified version of it is only GPL.

Others are around legislation, such as the one that came yesterday from FTC on call to cancel being illegal.
I've been thinking recently that Windows 95/98/2000 had better UX than you can find nowadays on most websites, and while not "beautiful", it was still aesthetic.

That + a good console? Great idea. I'd love to see some innovation with the old school design ethos too; maybe there are even better ways of displaying controls? Or maybe a new way to think about controls that weren't around back then.
I make a point of sending complimentary emails whenever I read a story or poem I really enjoy. As a writer of fiction and poetry, I know that most of the time, there's no indication that anybody ever reads our stuff, so it's always nice to find out that someone does.
its not just stocks. besides the real estate effect being discussed here you have like 500 different cryptocurrencies all shooting for the moon, streets laced with supercars, NFT crazyness, you name it

all this amidst rising geopolitical tensions as the pax sino-americana and its supply chains are being dismantled

it all feels quite unhinged and who knows what hidden liabilities have been created

Thats very interesting, first time hearing of it. Not sure, really depends on what kind of reflection it generates when light hits it, and because of the unique design I'm not sure what that will be.
Then advertisers will move to more proven big names, like Google and FB which have proven records on spam detection, so less revenues on others. Keep in mind that ad networks' profit is bound by advertiser budget and the only thing that advertisers care about is ROI, not # of clicks or impressions. If you don't make advertiser happy, they're always ready to move the budget to other networks.
I don't really care where futurists keep their heads, but they, including Hoel, use them intermittently, superficially and in a slipshod manner. They don't do their homework.

I very much doubt that Hoel has properly thought through in detail what it would take to operate a permanent colony on Mars and what would have to happen to set one up. If he has, he has not troubled to write down his thoughts.

As an example of what I'm talking about, Brian Potter, on his blog "Construction Physics", has delved into the detail and explained some of the mass of physical, economic, informational, institutional, organisational, and cultural factors that result in the building construction industry and construction costs being what they are.[1]

I have never seen its like from any futurist.

I'm totally fine with people exploring and getting excited about uses for crypto and Ethereum, but I don't like the term "Web3"because it suggests that it's the next evolution of the web, when really it's a completely different technology. Hopefully this Web3 term is just a phase and will get replaced with something better.
> I couldn't tell from the article, it only hinted that he did something wrong but did not disclose what it was

I also have zero background knowledge here. Maybe this article just doesn't target us.

In a stand alone 2.5K word article I would expect more than 20 words detailing the transgression.

It's fine to write articles that require knowledge of a controversy. Though, in such cases, I won't have much to say if I don't have that prior knowledge. It does seems a bit odd to have such an article hit the front page.
Thank you! Hoping for higher resolutions soon.
You know, I've thought this same thing for a while now. I'm an immigrant to the USA and I've traveled extensively. All these woke folks that try to make it seem like America is the world's most racist hellhole crack me up. They're clearly the kinds of Americans who never got passports.
I love Andreas’s YouTube channel, such a nice and relaxing stream of quality programming
I like Kasparov on Twitter. I think this article is bullshit.

He starts by citing two responses from what he considers to be people he disagrees with. These are "it's not happening" and "it happens only to bad people". He never actually addresses these claims directly, and instead heads off on tangential matters.

Kasparov appears (probably correctly) to be worried about "groupthink". Yet who can point me to a position that has actually been silenced? Those who believe in the lab theory, that vaccines are toxic, that covid19 is a hoax - these people all have hundreds of thousands if not millions of people reading, listening, watching presentations of these views. Are they a broadcast TV network? No. Are they on MSNBC? No. But how on earth can anyone seriously make the claim that these sort of views (or any others) are excluded from public consideration?

The major reason why only 58-60% of the US is vaccinated against COVID-19, for example, is precisely that anti-vaccination viewpoints have been widely distributed and viewed, despite being completely non-establishment.

Kasparov cites Thiel as someone who has apparently suffered from "the politics of personal destruction". Excuse me, but just how has Thiel suffered? He still publishes books, appears in what I can only assume is as wide a selection of media as he chooses to (given his historically rather reticent public persona), is frequently asked for comments about matters he appears to the world to be knowledgeable about, and continues to enjoy the benefits of his prodigious wealth (including that IRA).

Then Kasparov dives into lab-leak theory, and the way that many people considered this theory to be "pro-Trump". If his point was merely that it was rather pre-emptive to declare this idea false, it would be an excellent point.

However, that's not his point, and he chooses to ignore the way in which Trump attempted to use "the China virus" and the lab-leak theory as cover for his own administration's ineptitude, which creates a context in which a disdain for lab-leak theory is sort of inevitable. That context is arguably more important than anything else about this episode, particularly given that the origin story of SARS-COV-2 was always going to, and now is, receiving about as much scrutiny as anything like ever could (Chinese reluctance notwithstanding).

If Kasparov had actually addressed "it's not happening" and "it only happens to bad people" effectively, maybe this would have been an interesting essay. Instead, I find it intellectually weak, and basically a great example of a conclusion ("there's a threat to free flow of ideas") in search of some rather weak evidence.
Though not easy to implement, but consumption driven billing rather than seat/user-driven would reduce the grief quite a bit.

In the early days AWS EC2 became popular for their per compute per hour pricing compared to hosting providers fixed monthly cost.
Yes, and it's a very functional GUI: well thought, informative, rational, with every section put where it belongs. It comes from an era in which GUIs were made to solve problems. I hope it will never ever ever go the path that GTK took after version 2.
So now we are in the weeds about inheritance tax, but the idea is that you pay 40% on your inheritance which clears your tax obligations for that inheritance and resets all the cost basis calculations, and then after that you pay gains when you sell from the time you inherited.

That is not a tax loophole.

E.g. if someone buys stock for $10, then the share price grows to $100 and they die, so that a family member receives $100 of stock, and then the share price goes up to $110 and the inheritor sells, then in the current system, the inheritor pays:

$40 on receipt of shares at $100 (cost basis for him is zero)

$4 on sale of shares at $110 (cost basis is now 100)

for $44 in taxes paid on that stock.

RSUs also work in the same way -- you pay taxes the moment you get them, and then if you keep them, when you sell your cost basis is the price of the shares when you were given them. That is important to know if you like to hold onto your RSU shares for a while -- know that your cost basis is not zero, but whatever the price of the shares were when you paid taxes for receiving them as income.
Interesting idea. Supply chain issues aside I don’t know if the current gas tanks could be retrofitted for hydrogen. Maybe fuel cells would be easier. Could just shoot water out of its little plane tush as its flying.

Is there enough O2 at plane levels for fuel cells?

You forget this is HN, where software engineers will go off on tangent talking about how "they could have designed the airplane rotor to not crash" or something equally ridiculous.

There is nothing that stops artists selling music directly and getting close to 100% profit. You don't need blockchains or "web3". The thing is that labels and spotify actually provide a valuable service that artists mostly choose to use.

People constantly devalue the real work that these "middlemen" are doing, pretending that the artist is doing it all. The label provides marketing, mixing, advice, etc which all boost the final profits of the music. Spotify provides technology, marketing, consumers, billing, distribution, etc which all boost the reach of the music.

But there is nothing stopping you from making music with no label, and putting it on bandcamp to sell directly.
Fair enough, maybe anti-PC is a better label?
I first heard about SerenityOS via HN years ago, it's been incredible to watch Andreas' journey from hobby project to working on it full-time.

His hacking sessions on youtube are also great.
Consider diving into tulip land (without any major investments of course). Mint an NFT, write a coin contract, it's actually a very fun and easy way to learn the basics of web3.

On a side note, in Ben Thompson's Stratechery interview with the CEO of Unity this week, the Unity CEO used the term "Web 3" multiple times, but he was referring to a 3D/XR-enabled web rather than developments related to crypto. And I'm sure there will be many more takes to come on what the next version of the web will be.

FullStory sent us a reminder email last week that we need to cancel 2 months before the annual contract ends. I started a Slack thread, we all agreed we love FullStory, done. I think SaaS that try to trick their customers by not reminding them about their cancellation policy (which isn't consistently 1 month, 2 months, or anything, and is hard to track when you're a small startup) are just afraid their product isn't good enough or valuable enough for people to renew. Instead of improving their product, some exec can say "let's not remind them", and get about the same rate of retention.
If the student body doesn't approve of the student union, do something about it. The student body refusing do something about it is implicit speech that they approve. If most of the student body isn't changing the student union, that tells me that perhaps your identification of who is in the minority here might not be accurate, or is at least incomplete.
> I don't know where the author is from but I am almost certain he doesn't live in an authoritarian regime with capital controls. To be so flippant about basic rights that people in developed countries have access to is really off-putting.

Argentina isn't an authoritarian regime, and from what I learned when my wife lived there 9 years ago, one of the biggest challenge faced by the country actually comes from the wealthy people turning all pesos they could into USD (which drives the peso down, leading to bigger inflation because it raises import costs a lot). Capital control was actually set to avoid this issue (with pretty much no success) and if you really cared about Argentina, you should wish for a more effective way to counteract money evaporation instead of something that makes it easier.
> It’s hard to believe someone becomes racists merely from hearing that racism is banned.

Narrowly, I agree, but we all know that there's a lot of ideological baggage associated with "racism" as a term and specifically how it's brandied about and by whom. At this point, how you talk about racism signals a side in a culture war in which "both sides" are illiberal--and of course the inconvenient liberal center whose existence threatens both sides' dichotomous narratives ("yeah we're illiberal, but those guys are even more illiberal").

> The issue of hating billions of people is too serious to develop as a form of devil’s advocacy.

Not in America where racism is incessantly used as a political football by the left and the right (for example, left wing Twitter has been doing its best to racialize the Rittenhouse saga despite that all parties were white; similarly right).

> As for the issue of identity politics, I think that’s another discussion entirely.

As previously mentioned, it's deeply intertwined with how we talk about "racism".

The builders will win and naysayers will be long forgotten. I work full time in this space and it is evolving faster than I can keep up with.

DAOs, NFTs, tokens, decentralized file storage, decentralized identity via public keys and smart contracts, tokens as authentication, on-chain reputation systems, oracles, fundraising with no third parties or gatekeepers, etc are all here to stay and will evolve further and faster than your bias will let you see.

If you have an alternative to the monopolistic web and mobile dystopia we find ourselves in, wherein we can only speak within the narrow band of corporately acceptable speech and expression, and we can only transact with the blessings of PayPal's overlords, that doesn't involve crypto or blockchain, I suggest you quit your job to build it.

Otherwise, I fear you might be too late at disrupting the establishment, as the builders are well under way, working on Web3 powered by crypto (in both senses of the word).
I'm not sure I quite explained myself, although I do appreciate the reply.

See, I also don't see how one central guiding metaphor would be any less arbitrary than none, or ten metaphors.

What I am asking is why would α = 0.0072973525693 be more of a problem than electromagnetism or the speed of light being constant or e=mc^2? If the fine structure constant was exactly 1 would that make it better? Why is 1 less arbitrary or more good?

I understand the beauty in simplicity, fewer concepts or ideas, smaller formulas explaining more things, 1 being "nicer" than other numbers, etc. So I understand that aspect of goodness, so it is the connection to underlying observable reality I'm asking about.

Because isn't it also arbitrary to think that if we could explain things in more beautiful ways then it would be a deeper understanding or closer to the truth?
I really doubt there will be a rise of the throuple in any meaningful sense. The entire point of the authors essay is how unchanging society is, but suddenly it's going to become not uncommon for inherently complicated (more dynamics than dyads) relationships to exist?

It hasn't been the case at any point in human history (other than extremely small minorities). This is not going to change now. Humans don't work that way on a mass scale.

The same with education. Education does not exist to educate, it exists to babysit children (parents have to go to work! look at the last election in Virginia), and be a hoop to jump through for accreditation. Online learning will be hugely inconvenient for these purposes, and traditional in person education will remain the most common form well into the end of the 21st century

Nothing ever changes

Ah yes they call those evergreen contracts in the US. Month-to-month works for me. It gives us both an out if one of us ends up not liking the other.

Twitter is very good for this, but you must follow the builders. Wholly agreed, there is too much trash if you just search for crypto. I'd recommend finding the founders and devs of a crypto organization or protocol you find interesting and follow along.

I imagine most of the skeptical people would be happy with a smallpox vaccine given it is a real vaccine that provides immunity by injecting an inactive (non replicating) virus. Compared to the latest ones that do something entirely different and at beast provide 'protection' - the CDC changed the definition of the word vaccine to include these latest bunch of jabs.
You are laboring under false beliefs. It is common for software folks to think that they are experts in the law. They are not.
Is there any place on your site to see what this actually looks and functions? I see a lot of descriptions of the problems and generalities on what you're doing to solve them, but little of the actual specifics. I'm getting the sense this is sort of a collaborative Asana-like product, but primarily for task tracking across projects created from templates.

Something like a demo video would go a long way for me, a non-salesperson, to understand what kind of product this is. How am I going to interact with it? What exactly is it capable of?

You are repeating my point. More creative people move to SF because there offer better chance of success, which is fundamentally determined by the market size (and capital etc). That's not because SF is managed better. Swap SF mayor and SG primer minister, you still have the same SF and SG (very likely, let's not be mirred in hypothetical assumption).
Retasked obviously.
It's about effort. The seller is asking you to put in the effort to enter your payment info in order to use the "free" version of the product. It's an exchange. The seller benefits because there is less friction to paying later.

The dark pattern is billing the card without consent from the user, or some weird implicit consent.
