I think they clearly state that the fresh versions are not open source, they are "source available".

After 3 years since release the code automatically gets relicensed under Apache 2.0 and becomes open source. This is a nice provision that prevents the code from being completely lost if the company loses interest in it.
What do you mean bu not as unique?

When a product is newly created on Amazon, it receives its own ASIN. ASINs are only used on Amazon, and are closely tied to the UPC/GTIN/EAN barcodes that are used in worldwide retail.
People violate the JSON spec all the time.

And following the CSV spec is much easier than following the JSON spec. And there's only like three edge cases.
I feel the visual eye-candy provided by delta far more appealing than what difft does.
Also, delta is much more configurable and has nice binding for moving through hunks.

That's probably the only reason, otherwise, you are correct. I would want the context always.
Indeed:

Don't watch them. I hate that YT recommends videos I've already seen but I also click on them more often than not.
Anybody using a current version or older under an Apache license can continue to do so, as far as I can tell.

Nobody using a free version of any software should expect some benelovent 3rd party to continue fixing bugs and making improvements for free, even if you enjoyed that privilege before.
It is possible in Austria though. We’ve met a group of people who’ve kept at it post-COVID enforced periods of lockdown homeschooling, because it worked so well for their children. The parents take turns supervising the group and I think they also employ a part-time private teacher for oversight.
I'm not sure I agree with these definitions in terms of how I've seen it used. To me people tend to use yak shaving to refer to a side distraction project that itself turns into a hairy time consuming affair that doesn't really justify the small benefit you would get from it with regard to the first project; rather than a distraction from a distraction from a distraction.

Something like you need a string function that doesn't seem to exist, and end up rewriting the string library.
I find that one or two hour timers help. I force myself to have a tea break or a snack. It lets you zoom out for a minute, and remember what you set to work on that day.

This brings me to my next point: know what you're supposed to be working on. I like to write it down at the start of the day while I have breakfast, before I touch a computer.
idk where you went to school but the "homework" and worksheets I got before high school I could do with my eyes closed. The teachers would hand it out, I'd complete it in 2 minutes then not worry about it. It never even reached my parents. They had already taught me how to read a clock, how to do multiplication and long division, etc. "Homework" as a concept basically didn't exist for me before AP classes.
The founder of SaaStr Jason Lemkin wrote a pretty good article that can help you think about this decision

The immediate impact is that that MRR that you have is no longer eligible for dividend payment. Expectation will be that you reinvest all income for growth until you exit (acq, IPO).

On the positive side, you’ll get to explore how big your idea can really become. And with much less worries about immediate cashflows than you otherwise would have if you were to grow your headcount.

tldr; think big or enjoy your small scale success. (As others have pointed out, absolutely nothing wrong with the latter.)
… is that crazy expensive or crazy cheap?
Reminds me of my brother, who wanted to have a little toy car consolation price at the christmas fair, but kept winning the main prices. Parents were chatting with another couple, he came asked for a buck to play, dumped the main price into my fathers arms, this went on six-times, he was almost crying by the point my father said "enough" the arm full of Dresden stollen. Sometimes your glorious victory is the defeat of others. Good times.
This study is flawed in that it didn’t account for purchase increases outside the survey area.

In Chicago the tax was ineffective as there were many close municipalities without the tax - in addition to grey market stores that didn’t charge the tax - allowing buyers to easily avoid paying it.
They state that BSL + Apache re-license after 3 years is "open source". It's not, it's delayed open source if anything. But doing BSL is not open source, at least as what we know open source to be today.
I disagree, if you realize: "we need to refactor this file/module/class/etc." then it becomes a new task. Or more general, "we need to refactor the organically grown architecture": it's a new task. Working on a task should not prohibit your thinking about additional tasks, just add them to the backlog.
I mean, it's a speed v. security thing. Every engineer (and I don't mean software engineers here) will tell you this is insane. You can't trust your bricks and yet, you're building a cathedral.

I know that automating stuff to check for CVEs and vulnerabilities of sorts is getting a lot of traction recently, but I don't think this is really sufficient. Who do you trust? Are we going to see some companies creating a "Security Seal of Approval" for packages?

I'm not sure what's the answer here, but certainly it isn't what we have been doing for the last couple years.
Step up, pony up, or shut up.
The commercial license is $2k per vCPU LMAO, aka an 8 core node would cost $16k annually to operate. This is about to be an absolute shit storm, don’t see how this will make a lick of financial sense for corporations to pay this.
Ok that's neat and all, but I don't see any way to upload my own SWF files. Unfortunately most interesting Flash content are still dead on the web.
I think it's entirely possible to be annoyed with overt obnoxious virtue signaling without being a racist, which seems to be what the critics are saying.

One reviewer pointed out that the protagonist manages to be both a Mary Sue AND a Karen. (If you're unfamiliar with the tropes -- automatically good at everything with no heroes journey to develop themselves, and wants to speak to your manager). I haven't watched it personally but yikes if that's accurate.
> This isn't a problem with those programmers, it's a problem with Go modules.

That seems like a bit of a jump! Maybe there's a better way of building dependency management tooling that doesn't use lock files, it seems strange to tie yourself to this approach just because it's how other tools work.
Washington State had had a "candy" tax for at least a decade. I put candy on quotes, because some candy is exempt.
But then Seattle added their per ounce sweetened soda tax. The per ounce concept always seemed wrong to me. Because the lower calorie drinks are cheaper but a per ounce tax hits them more.
What is worse is a milk based drink is excempt, so milk shakes, the highest caloric drink isn't taxed.
What? Their target customer should be the one who has to pay, otherwise they are gonna focus on acquiring customers that won't pay? How does that make sense?
Poor people (which generally includes young folks) simply do not have investments nor enough actual money to pay for two bank accounts. A bank account for poor people is a utility, not an investment. It keeps money a bit safer than keeping it on you at work (for example). It is only trivial when you don't need to spend all of your money each and every month.

Those same folks could easily wind up homeless if this happened to them.
Just skeptical? They deleted Hentai with rape, "too young looking" anime characters and other such stuff in it! So it's pretty safe to say that it wasn't all CP. Not to mention that even RP rape and other types of content got the boot as well. At the demand of the CC companies. So if anything, they were being over protective against something that should never have been their business to police.
> Amazon’s ASIN database may have protection in Europe (where they unwisely adopted a “database right” that is an adjunct to copyright), but in the USA, factual collections of identifiers are not eligible for copyright.

I didn't know about this practice in EU, this seems to be a setup made for abuse

I've spent a lot of time in this space, tried to build a couple startups.

The economics don't really add up for most farming, but do for some. It works for specialized things like the living lettuce already in super markets, sprouts, quick and fresh stuff. Things that take months to reach harvest, and have a lot of waste plant material (we don't eat the entire thing like lettuce) it's wildly uneconomical. It's good from a pest management standpoint as well. Any gains in water efficiency and fuel savings are erased by the energy cost to power the grow lights and climate control. It's great for specific things like lettuce, pot, mushrooms, etc. but for 90% of our food supply like fruits, vegetables, grains, etc. it's just not viable.
No, it's what anyone who follows the military situation in Europe can see and it's been this way for a long time.
>if you skip the safe recommendations you'll start seeing more more intelligent recs such as videos that have the same presentation style as the ones you like except they were uploaded by unknown creators with 1k subs. Over time the algorithm will learn that you only like to rewatch certain kinds of videos (music videos in my case) and that you like to be surprised.

Why oh why can't you just tell youtube that this is what you want, instead of some elaborate algorithm training dance?
United Sodas are 30 kcal per can for what it’s worth and pretty delicious. They’re just out of stock a lot. (https://unitedsodas.com/)
One thing to realise is that a lot of those VCs will be junior analysts and tyre kickers looking to fill their diary. I am involved in a handful of businesses and they could all fill half of their week taking those calls, even though the investors are not serious. They conclude the call with “let’s keep in touch” even though the businesses have stellar growth and margins.

If I was to take VC funding again I would combine it with taking a big slug off the table personally to derisk things. For this to make sense you would probably need to scale the business quite a bit more before that becomes viable.
What? in 2012 Eu compromised on Every Single Point. Every points. Not as much as the UK wanted sometime, but to put the brexit on EU is disingenuous.

Also, the US government is really weird on EU security. Because while Trump pushed for higher defense spending, the military was in Belgium and Germany saying "See, you have to get new fighters carrying our bombs, and since the Viper is abandoned and we won't upgrade your F18 into superhornets, you will have to buy our F35". So Germany and Belgium at least will be paying an order of magnitude more in maintenance costs for at best the same air capabilities. But they did finance Lockheed, so all is good?
That’s not great. The smartest kids could be learning calculus in elementary school. Having them teach arithmetic to their struggling peers is just going to add frustration onto boredom.

It also turns out that the smartest kids don’t even need that much attention. They just need access to resources and challenging material and a supervisor to help them set and achieve goals. It really doesn’t cost much to society to provide gifted kids with what they need and at the same time free teachers up to spend more time with those who need it.

I think we all know the main reason we as a society don’t fund gifted and talented education: spite. Parents of average kids hold a special animosity toward gifted kids for no other reason than envy. They would be far better off finding ways to get the most problematic and disruptive kids out of their children’s classrooms but that doesn’t satisfy people the way seeing a gifted program close does.
Came here to say the same thing. I would expect their internal systems to calculate certain pricing components on the fly so it feels like they’ve deliberately built all possible permutations and data dumped that.

Basically a document dump - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_dump
The yield varies with a few factors, chief of which is how much total ETH is staked. More staked ETH means a lower yield. Here's a calculator: https://ethereumprice.org/eth-2-calculator/
Yes but if you're at Kaiser in San Francisco and have a zebra there may only be one doc (or a small group) at UCSF that can treat your zebra, and they are not in the Kaiser network, so you go to Los Angles where Kaiser's specialist is, get treated by a lesser doc with a virtual visit assist from LA, or pay cash out of network.

Being able to reload a module without restarting.

So not node.js, or deno.
I agree we would be fine if all memory was nonvolatile, as long as all the other properties like latency were preserved.

In terms of software robustness though, starting from scratch occasionally is a useful thing. Sure, ideally all our software would be correct and would have no way of getting into strange, broken or semi-broken states. In practice, I doubt we'll every get there. Heck, even biology does the same thing: the birth of child is basically a reboot that throws away the parent's accumulated semi-broken state.

We have built systems in software that try to be fully persistent, but they never caught on. I believe that's for a good reason.
How will the UC Berkeley administration prevent its head from exploding from cognitive dissonance, if they start requiring people to successfully complete lower courses to get into the program? Think of all the injustice and inequities this will produce. The privileged just get more privileged.
Thank you for the response. Quite interesting.
Singapore doesn’t control all prices - drugs can be freely priced, but as I stated it’s changing right now.

And getting HSA approval doesn’t have anything to do with price - that regulatory. Even the FDA has to approve anything used in the US.

It is true you can’t purchase at the hospital level without some agreement on price, but the hospitals often do their own tenders, which are confidential prices. It’s not done at the national level for everything.

And yes, prices are tightening but companies are already deciding to just not market in Singapore if prices get too low.

Check out Germany, I think it was AZ that decided to just not launch a drug there at all because the price was too low.
He was ahead of the curve in so many ways including quiet quitting.

Thanks. I'll let him know. He's had a great experience one year in and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend UW to anyone considering it but understand that you basically get to apply twice for any desirable major. Once to get into the school and again for whatever major you want if it is capacity constrained. Ironically, my cousin's daughter opted for Berkeley over UW this fall. She's on a non-STEM track though.
You seem to obfuscate pretty simple concepts through some pointless math. Yes if we burn a forest that took 20 years to grow, to capture the same amount of carbon you will need to grow the same amount of trees for 20 years (or equivalently double the trees for 10 years ...). The recapture is 100% efficient and 100% reversible or are you suggesting that carbon is somehow transformed into a different element. If a tree contains e.g. 1 tonne of carbon it needed to extract that amount of carbon from the atmosphere. The thing is, growing trees happens much more frequently than forest fires. So we can capture significant carbon from the atmosphere by planting more trees (with the added side effect that it would make places more pleasant to live).

Regarding coal-seam fires, the amount of carbon they release compared to the amount of coal we burn purposefully is negligible (that doesn't mean we should not put them out though)
A lot of “open source means I get to use the software for free and tell the authors what to do, forever, while not contributing a thing in return” in this thread.

that's pretty much limited to the united states though.
Just a question, is there even a reason to keep pursuing revenue growth? VS taking more time off, focusing on yourself? I mean if you're making 15k monthly...
I'm not sure why link to the front page of rsync.net when there's no new update, but for anyone considering rsync, one thing to note is that they have other products for incredible prices.
Air also has inelastic demand.
It is just that it is too cheap (that doesn't mean that the producers make a good profit) to produce an enormous quantity of it (even though fresh food is perishable), so much, that even the US and the EU agree on agricultural quotas and/or increasing tariffs over a certain quota of imported quantity.

For Switzerland & Germany the way the incentives work are different than in the US, but the market for compulsory health insurance is very strictly regulated and the cost distribution for healthcare is distributed across public and private entities (particularly for very expensive treatments, rare diseases, treatments involving machines of great complexity/cost [like for proton therapy]).
Well no. I'm not a developer, but I do donate to open source projects I like and use. I have not donated to LO, and I do not intend to, as I am not satisfied either with it's current state, or with its trajectory. I don't see why discussing about a n open-source project and its progress is forbidden, and all we are allowed to do is either contribute or donate.
This is either sloppy exaggeration or assuming a level of stupidity on manager’s part which goes beyond the bounds of hanlon’s razor. It is especially clear when you notice that

> There are a TON of companies hiring remote/WFH so at this point it's almost completely up to your preference what you choose to pursue.
It means that they are targeting enterprise customers.

And for them the price is irrelevant if it solves their problem.
Hear, hear!

I once was denied access to my own money over a very long weekend during which a bill popped up that I had to settle immediately. I ultimately ended up borrowing money from my family.

The reason for the denail turned out to be a clerical mistake.

The feeling of dread I experienced thanks to this tought me to always kept a small stash of cryptocurrency (and cash!) for situations like this.

In the age of uncaring mega corporations and unaccountable governments, having money not controllable by either is a necessity.
Yup, this a terrifying standard. CCs, banks and PPs already have no business playing police, but now this judge just handed the MSM the veto on pretty much anything. Since a crime doesn't even need to have been proven to happen, let alone guilt on anyone's part to open financial services up to legal action. Insanity.

We need the financial institutions to stop being asked (forced) by the government to do law enforcement's job. This is yet another argument for why we need some kind of 'financial services neutrality act'
Things being what they are in the USA, the cost of a grad TA may also include the cost of healthcare. Plus most grad students would be charged out-of-state tuition, which can be quite a bit higher than the in-state rate.
Plenty of internet commenters discuss it.
I'm guessing there's a big ick factor to separating kids into "smarter" and "not that smart" groups. It feels inequitable, undemocratic, it goes against the commonly accepted blank slate hypothesis. People will say that if kids show different outcomes, the teachers just haven't tried hard enough, or that the state hasn't spent enough on them.
I'm amazed that rsync is not a registred trademark, internationally [1] or in Australia [2].

What promise are they not keeping? The existing versions are still available as open-source. The Apache license does not require them to continue to release subsequent versions under the same license. The GPL does, but by not releasing under the GPL in the first place, they were clearly not making that promise.
Warren Buffet was always a investor he didn’t himself pivot anything.

He didn’t found Berkshire he just bought a old public not very healthy textile company and used it as his investment vehicle /holding company and dumped its assets.
Citi has flagged my account for suspicious activity three times, each with the same pattern: card gets declined on a routine transaction, followed by absolutely no notice over any electronic means, and then a letter in the mail describing the lockout. If there's a bank I would ever advise against, it's Citi, purely for the reason that they really seem to overreact to fraud signals.
I find the 'never fix a bug and refactor in the same commit' advice somewhat questionable.

If the code is a mess and I'm going to refactor it anyway should I spend a lot of time trying to fix the bug in the old code only to refactor it afterwards? Or should I refactor and deliberately leave the bug in there only to fix it afterwards?

To me doing them together often makes sense and I don't remember code reviewers ever complaining. But maybe I'm missing something?
This "envy" story is complete BS. Why should we, as a society, especially help the most privileged and gifted people even more? It's not envy, it's regression to the mean (everything except societal rules is already going in your favour, how dare it).

I also don't think you appreciate the value of instruction as a learning tool and the skills required to truly teach people - empathy, paying attention to cues to keep an up to date model of the student, language skills, clarity of thought to adapt your explanation on the fly. All of these are real skills, which it is absolutely worth teaching the gifted math prodigy instead of rushing them into research ASAP - they are humans, not theorem-factories.
I guess that depends if other libraries are fine with only having commercial users willing to pay that much for using Akka. (E.g. since GP mentioned Spark, doesn't that have quite a commercial ecosystem around it that probably won't be happy to suddenly pay thousands per node extra?)

Can you please stop taking HN threads further into flamewar, and particularly please edit out the personal swipes in your comments? Those things destroy the kind of discussion we're hoping for here, and your comments in this thread stand out along both of those lines.

In fact there were gratuitous personal swipes in literally every comment you posted to this thread. Please make your substantive posts without any of that in the future.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.
I graduated Purdue in 04, and then ECE was still basically EE with a few computing related electives.

A CS major couldn't take any engineering classes; a ECE student might be allowed to take some CS classes, but there weren't any in mine, and realistically they were probably too busy anyways.
It also creates a vicious cycle where people who do care about article quality are more likely to disengage with the site -- and these are most likely the people who write the highest value comments.

I don't think a culture of 'only reading the comments' is at all a good thing.
