The interests of your government might not necessarily be aligned with yours.

Likely, their personal gains or the interests of lobbyists would come first and not necessarily align with borders/the colour of your passport cover. If you wanna stay "top dog", perhaps think it through a bit more and think a bit broader.
That's a great point, thanks for bringing it up! I've updated my original post with this detail as a possible explanation, since it's the one that makes the most sense.

I guess that MinIO or any other company could also do something similar, have dual licenses, where interested parties can pay for commercial usage and whatnot.
Correct. Rape, theft, murder, and other actions can be performed along the way of people fulfilling their basic human needs, so the reasoning doesn't really justify all activities.

The way I look at it (and not saying it is the best way, just works for me) is that my public/professional person is my brand that the world sees and thinks of when I interact with them. Regardless whether that is big brother junior analyst in IT or a client CEO, I try to keep that consistent and inviting.

If on the weekend I want to only drink Soylent, trade crypto, and otherwise engage in fun but less inviting behaviors, I'll do that off company property.
I've seen a fair few reviews for companies I used to work at where it was really easy to ID the reviewer as they were too forthcoming with details. Some people just don't see the potential dangers of posting negative reviews without properly hiding their ID.
As a mobile developer, the main pain point with collaborating with a designers over the years has been their complete lack of knowledge when it comes to norms on Android.

All have been exclusively iOS users, with no feel for how the two platforms differ, and I have had to take it up on my self to translate and adjust the designs given to me so that they follow norms and practices on Android.
Interestingly, HN guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html) say nothing about a comment needing to be in English.
I was working as a contractor at the time, so I've got lots of memories of this.

Even before them, I actually used Microsoft OS/2 1.0 (yes, there was an edition packaged that way!). This was even before the "Presentation Manager" GUI was released. It was, from a user's perspective, just like an industrial-strength DOS.

Slightly later, running actual servers at IBM, OS/2 1.3 (iirc) was a godsend - it was the only OS we'd ever encountered that could reliable run for months at a time without reboot. I remember these tower cases loaded up with several 80MB hard drives for huge storage!

When OS/2 2 arrived, it really seemed to be a big step up over Windows, but IBM didn't know how to market it. There was a lot of innovation there, both in UX and in OS design. I recall the leaked internal "J'Accuse" email, where an employee pointed out how much the OS/2 team had done to make it such an excellent product, and that everyone in the company had done so much to support it.

IBM was really good at dropping the ball like this. Just as Windows has since come to be intertwined with BASIC (from early MS BASIC to Visual Basic to VBA), IBM had a thing for Rexx. Back in these days, few had yet thought about a VB-like tool to raise the level of abstraction for developers. Except for a small team in IBM. They built a tool referenced as, iirc, "Red October" that gave the rapid-prototyping capabilities of VB, but with Rexx, for OS/2. It didn't (yet) have the visual designer environment, but even at that early date it came baked-in with the ability to build remote client-server apps. I think that if IBM knew what to do with this, it could have pre-empted the success that Microsoft had with VB, and in that alternate universe, perhaps it could have led to IBM capturing the corporate desktop market rather than MS taking it.
Frontier is a good term because just as the US frontier age eventually ended, the software frontier expansion is also eventually going to stop.
Ask HN: What gets you unblocked?
For me personally, the answer is clearly to go for a run. In fact, I would say it worked about 100% of the time for me over the last 10 years. It allowed me to endure and crush through pretty much every challenge or blocker I hit, personal and work-wise. Whether those were challenges/splitting with co-founders, raising capital, finding a solution for technical/product problems, or getting through the intense process of my startup being acquired. Every time I come back from a run I either have "the answer", "next step" or at the very least the motivation to keep trying (harder).

So tell me, what is it for you that gets your mind? unblocked?
I'm not aware of those studies so I can't judge. What meat are you talking about? From which country? Was it cheap supermarket meat or locally sourced from a trusted butcher?
I hope all of those questions are taken into consideration when judging which foods we should avoid.

But still I don't buy this whole meat avoidance stunt. Most studies show only small effects linked to meat avoidance which can be usually be well explained by the fact that vegetarians are usually health conscious people:

Recent versions of MinIO use AGPL. Much of what they talk about here are issues with Apache licensed code. (The switch happened in April 2021).

https://github.com/minio/minio/commits/master/LICENSE

This really seems like Nutanix just didn’t include the MinIO NOTICES file in their OSS disclosures for some reason. Something so minor should have been an easy oversight to fix. Without actually testing out Nutanix, it’s hard to know if they are actually violating this part of the Apache license. MinIO isn’t included in their “open source packages we use” webpage, but that’s not where the NOTICES message would need to be included. Either way, it’s odd that things escalated like this.

The newer AGPL versions of MinIO would offer its own licensing challenge for Nutanix (which is part of the reason for the switch to AGPL). But that’s not even what MinIO is focusing on in their post. MinIO also don’t show the version of their software that they claim Nutanix is using. And it’s very possible that Nutanix froze the minio version in April 2021 (quite likely the case).
He's not loading custom firmware on the car - the title is clickbait. In fact, there is no "car" when it comes to firmware - there's not central computer that controls the "car".

There are separate modules that do well-defined tasks and only a few of them would ever be relevant in an insurance/accident scenario (engine/transmission controller, power steering and maybe ABS).

What he's done here is equivalent to installing an aftermarket head unit, something people have been doing for decades. But even editing firmware (or rather the data tables in there - also called "maps") from more "spicy" controllers such as the engine management controller is routinely done by auto tuning shops and in practice the worst that happens is blowing up your engine by pushing it beyond its limits.
> EUropean here.

> Who cares? Is this an American thing to always brag something about race, or how much "non-racist we are"?

It matters because it's unprecedented in the United States, which is far more diverse than any other country in the world by a long shot. Think about all the racial tension that exists in most European countries from some sizable "outsider" populations. Roma in most of Europe. Polish in England. Turks in Germany. The United States completely eclipses all of that because we have accept more refugees and immigration than any other country in the world and we have the largest immigrant population in the world.

> Nobody gives a sh* here.

Probably not if you are part of the roughly 90 percent of people in any given state in Europe that happen to be the right race.

> In my opinion, US is still racist AF.

Yes, which is why seeing a black president be elected is remarkable.

Racism is a shared tradition amongst all people and ironically it does not discriminate.

So the biggest complaints, from what I read here, is "it does not allow me to write bad code or make mistakes, I want something I can hack together without having to worry about conciseness", and based on groupthink "HN was negative about it".

This is not really connected to the point made.

She is in the Greek mythos and was worshipped by many. Historical enough for divinity claims, should I be interested in her patronage as a mortal. We can probably find a suitable historical figure to attach that divinity to. Maybe Mary Magdalene from the New Testament, she is already considered somewhat divine in the apocrypha (Christian holy writ arbitrarily not included in the Bible of mostly similar concurrency). Maybe even tie Canaanite and Greek pantheons back together through Asherah.
It’s a radical view to think that people should be “free to apply their own standards” to when a human life is sufficiently developed to be worthy of protection. The vast majority of the developed world asserts society’s right to draw that line.

Roe is an outgrowth of American libertarianism. In the 1970s, several high courts in developed countries heard abortion cases alongside Roe. The only one to find an affirmative “right” to an abortion was the US. Courts in France and Italy found it to be a matter for the legislature (except Italy found a right to exist when the woman’s life was threatened). Germany’s high court went further and found legalized abortion to violate the Basic Law’s right to life.

"For example, a corporate culture that is collaborative and open can have teams that are hyper-focused on metrics and productivity that misconstrue the intent of the culture to meet productivity metrics."

What planet do they live on? I've never been in a corporate culture that was like this, usually the opposite. Upper management is completely detached from reality, relies solely on metrics, and cuts costs as much as possible, which leads to dramatic churn. Engineers are too overwhelmed with doing the jobs of 3 people to do proper collaboration. That's the norm in Corporate America.

What I was commenting on was your categorical claim that the selected portion of the original comment was false and you have not provided that mathematical "proof".

As for a single counter example, you need to demonstrate that the counter example is applicable. I don't think you have. At least not to the degree that would support your categorical claim.

In regards to both of your views, I am making no statement as to validity or otherwise of those statements. This is simply a matter of asking for you and him to provide supporting evidence for your respective positions.

This would then allow further discussion on the views and their evidence.

> Hardly any of that content would exist at the quality level you are accustomed to, without copyright.

How would you know? Yes these all require funding but the idea that we as a society can only fund big creative works by giving up everyones right to freely share and enjoy them is absurd. Copyright is an effective(ish) way of funding things in a world built around copyright but it is not the only one and there is no reason to believe that there could not be better ones in a world without copyright.

It's a sad world we live in when creators are upset that their creation is shared.

Let's also not forget that the need to commercialize creative content using copyright can also negatively influence those works themselves as what is profitable under this scheme is not neccesarily what is best.

> It’s also a huge waste of time, as in order to be able to pay my employees and myself, I have to dedicate time to combating infringement-as-a-business.

Good news: without copyright you would not have to spend any time to combat infringement since there would be no infringement.

> For starters, the wholesale abolition of copyright would violate the United States Constitution.

Does it? I'm certainly not an expert of the matter but AFAII the constitution only ALLOWS the government to create laws like copyright but does not require it.

Don't just let your designers hand over the results. Make them pair on work with the engineers. This way, they will

- get to know each other

- get a better understanding of each other's work: what is important in the design and what is not, why is the design like it is, what is difficult to implement, how much effort certain tasks are, etc.

Another trick is to ask engineers for design input, e.g. in sketching sessions or design reviews.

As an engineer, I think Figma is a great tool. I can see exactly how the UI should look like, including all the details like colors, fonts and margins.
If taken seriously this should have implications on purchasing decisions and I'm not sure what would happen if some (government) organizations would ask Intel to take back their hardware because there's un-patachable RCE.

I mention the car recalls or the old Intel chip recalls or any recalls really because that past situations that could be comparable (I'm not implying this will lead to car recalls, only that that's past events that could be looked at for predicting how this might develop).
nutanix uses the apache licensed version probably, which changed in 2021.

Writing Predictable Elixir Code with Reducers

Sounds virtually identical to my experience from high school on, across almost every subject. Thankfully I retained >0, but still not what I should’ve. Instead, what I learned is I could JIT memorize what I needed to know just to pass the test. Took me years after school to unwind that and deeply learn topics again (outside things I had an interest in learning, those were never a problem).
Note that projects in the cloud native space are mostly Apache-licensed. (For example, the CNCF only approves other licenses on an exception basis I believe.) In that case, so long as attributions/trademarks are honored (which oddly seems to not have been the case here), projects licensed in that way can be freely used with Kubernetes without other restrictions.
In what way is that "policing"?
> You totally can decide to not work on stuff you are not comfortable with.

I seriously don't get why engineers think they share no responsibility whatsoever for the company they work for. Somehow, they seem to think their situation is comparable to someone picking orders at an Amazon fulfillment center. Thinking they "have no choice" when making 6 figures and having to fight off the recruiters. That's just an easy excuse they tell themselves to help them sleep at night. It's an insult to workers who actually have little choice to do shitty jobs for shitty companies to put food on the table and can barely make ends meet.

This is true, but the hatred Obama faced generally revolved around a belief that he was effectively foreign if a legal citizen and, moreover, a citizen by birth. He wasn't a "real American" -- these were the words used by Sarah Palin. And generally conservatives in the US regard non-conservatives as less American than themselves. The reverse is not the case. Bernie and AOC don't suggest Trump isn't American.

I'm curious how universal this is. The fascist regimes of the mid 20th century all demonized a large segment of their own population and put them outside the protection of the state, or rather, targeted them as enemies of the state and the "true" citizens. How does Marine Le Pen speak of the left-leaning French? Japan is a particularly ethnically uniform nation. Does the Right in Japan regard the Left as non-Japanese? If so, does the Left reciprocate, or does it regard the Right as Japanese but wrong?

I am afraid all these LoFi channels and Spotify Focus playlists songs are in reality just procedurally generated by them under some made up lables so in reality no artists are actually paid for the stream and the money (what little there is anymore) goes from their right pocket to their left pocket. Claud Challe and DJ Ravin would probably not happen in the modern streaming age.

That's an electric motorbike. Get it registered and with road rated hydraulic disc brakes, wheels, and suspension and wear road rated safety gear. It doesn't belong on separated bikeways with children and mixed use paths with babies and dogs.

An ebike is for the same roles as a human powered bikes, and no human can consistently move at speeds that are comfortable for overtaking cars on the flat or uphill.

Escooters, if anything, should be even slower as their geometry makes emergency braking impossible, but a 25km/h, 250W limit for everything is an acceptable compromise to reduce regulatory burden.

If you want a stand up scooter that produces kilowatts and does 90, then it's also an electric motorbike (or motor scooter/moped where that's a category) and should be held to the same safety standards.
