I'm puzzled by this article.

It criticizes the open core model by listing some hypothetical ways that it can skew incentives, but completely ignores and delegates to a footnote all the success stories it has made possible. It's missing the entire point of why open core, _when done right_, is a good thing for both users and the business.

In the case of sanity.io, how is it beneficial to the user that the editor is OSS, when their data—the most valuable part of a CMS—is kept behind a proprietary service they need to subscribe to? It's using OSS as a hook to get users tied into a proprietary product.

Secondly, the source available model is indeed not open source, nor, more importantly, free software. Users have no assurance that the software they're using is actually built from the source they have access to. Crucially, they have no rights to modify, distribute or even build the software. This is the antithesis of free software.

Releasing only OSS components is also hardly useful. Sure, developers might benefit from using certain libraries, but the core value of the full product remains locked away. There is no incentive for companies to keep developing these components, since the business doesn't rely on them directly.

All of these approaches are much inferior to the open core model.

When done correctly, with an open core, users have access to a _fully functional and featureful_ product that exists standalone as free software. Only certain features, typically intended for advanced users or enterprise customers, are offered as a commercial product. This can be accomplished in many ways: cloud SaaS, commercial extensions, priority support, etc.

The crucial aspect of making open core successful is that the OSS product should be, as the name suggests, _core_ to the business. This way the incentive will always be to develop this component, which will benefit both your OSS users and paying customers.

There are many companies who've done this successfully: GitLab, Elastic, Redis, Hashicorp, Grafana, etc. These are loved by OSS users and customers alike, and they're certainly not "relatively new in the grand scheme of business".

The reality is that open core is the most successful model to make free software sustainable. There are far too many projects that failed because the developers weren't able to monetize them properly. It's worth celebrating that we have as many successful OSS projects as we do today, and in large part this is thanks to the open core model.

DDR5 has enough ECC on chip to make errors effectively impossible. It doesn't provide error data to the CPU, though, so errors in transit can still occur. This is really unlikely, though, and anything not mission-critical will no longer need the extra ECC computation on the CPU-side. (DDR5 encapsulates the memory controller).
I don't find they, at least the three I've passed, as particularly painful. It's more like an intense discomfort. I find myself in a cycle of pacing, laying down and sitting (mostly on the toilet, you feel like you have to pee constantly). It's like discomfort limbo.

all client state is replicated server-side. that means spinning up and down completely isolated threads very quickly. only a stack with immutability to the core and VERY efficient processes (such as OTP threads) can guarantee this while also providing nearly instantaneous spawning from any state (thanks to immutable data structures). Every client that has a page open to your site has a tiny thread running in OTP (it does not use OS-level threads).

No other popular language can pull this off.

You can design hardware that's capable of dissipating the maximum heat output of every component simultaneously, but you'll end up with hardware that's significantly larger, heavier, and costs more to manufacture. Or you can design hardware that's capable of dissipating the expected heat output under a range of use-cases, and devolve policy management to the OS so it can (based on user preference) prioritise appropriately, allowing you to produce smaller, lighter machines that either cost less or generate more profit. Even if the motivation for cutting costs is to increase profit margins, users generally still seem to prefer the smaller, lighter hardware that works just fine under most circumstances.

It's all about a persistent connection between the client and server, with the server pushing updates to the client as new data/events come in.

If you don't have a good async model, you're down to a thread/process per connection, which can get very expensive since you will have a thread for every user on your site.

You need something like Erlang's lightweight internal "processes", golang's coroutines, or maybe even Node.js evented I/O async model to handle this well.

I've been thinking about this problem a lot, since I'm trying to figure out how to sustain our open source project. Our project is complex enough that it requires a few full-time people to maintain it. Our current funding comes from a grant, which is not sustainable in the long term.

I'm philosophically opposed to open core because tying revenue to proprietary features seems like the wrong incentive structure, I can't imagine how you'd avoid conflicts of interest. Plus, I'm building open source software because I believe in user freedom, so proprietary features leave an icky taste in my mouth.

My theory so far is that the open core model makes sense for VC-backed companies that are targeting enterprise customers. Most open core products seem targeted at enterprises, not small businesses or individuals. I assume this is because only enterprise deals can make the amount of money that VCs expect from investment. Of course, this leads to enterprise features being prioritized, which sucks for smaller organizations or people using the software.

I'd like my project to focus on meeting the needs of everyday people. I think we need more consumer focused open source software that is so well designed that it will displace proprietary SaaS software, where the incentive is to provide a service that customers get locked into. Software should be a tool, not a service.

The only project that I can think of doing a great job here is WordPress. WordPress is very easy to use, Automattic builds it, but they are not the only ones to make money from it, and I think the incentives are well-aligned.

I'm hoping I can find a similar funding model where I can build a sustainable project for everyday users without going after the enterprise market and all the sacrifices that entails. We are a non profit now and that keeps our incentives aligned with users.
I'm really not qualified to say much on the subject of race in any other countries, but I think coming at that professor from an external perspective misses context. Pushing the audience to recognize that the system is classifying them as "white" is true for a US audience. The fact that it seems like he's pushing whiteness isn't because he's wrong, it's because he's not talking to you.

Unfortunately, I don't think it's especially surprising that the US's cultural export also includes our deeply unhealthy relationship to race.
Part of the “magic” of LiveView is having a server-side process per connected user, to keep state and enable fast re-renders. This is where Elixir’s runtime (BEAM/OTP) really shines. To my knowledge, no similar technology has accomplished this so far, instead they put state in Redis or another database and need to re-load it from there every time an event needs to be processed server-side.

Hi,

It’s Mark from flowstreams.io.

I’m thrilled to share with you that our app is now live.

While the streaming market has been booming and evolving, it seems that some of the main players decidedly have not. Insane revenue cuts and overcommercialization have, in my opinion, distracted from what matters most: live game streaming and the content creators that make all of this happen in the first place.

We have decided to rely on blockchain technology purely for the streaming part of our service, which gives us a competitive advantage in terms of fixed streaming costs compared to the likes of Amazon AWS and Google Cloud. Our aim is to keep the revenue split as low as possible while maximizing access to anyone who’d like to stream their favorite game(s).

Check it out now at flowstreams.io, I’d love to hear your feedback and/or questions.

Connect with us on discord to get your exclusive code to stream on our platform yourself:

You can write anything you want on a website. Mafia shot Kennedy. Moon landing was faked. Covid doesn't exist. It doesn't make it true. Nor is salon.com authoritative source for assessing legitimacy of a government. I've set the benchmark to how many UN members endorse the view, and Russia has unprecedented lack of support for their current narrative, be it the illegitimacy of Ukraine's government, independence of LNR and DNR, or the Crimean referendum.

> Crimeans voted to be annexed to Russia. Are we not supporting their right to self-determination? Let me guess, this is different?

Again, virtually no-one recognizes it. The majority of United Nations, 100 countries, voted for a resolution calling this a mock referendum. Only 11 countries opposed: Russia, Syria, North Korea and a few other failed states.

The only argument you could possibly come up with is that for a decade, the US has somehow managed to force the whole world against Russia, from tiny Pacific island nations to India and China (including even Taliban!), but that's an obvious nonsense. No-one wields such power. Could it be that Russia is... just wrong? Violating every norm of international relations to a degree that it has lost all support it ever had among other countries?

There's nothing theoretically impossible about building a detector that measured a cat's dead or alive state obliquely (in the "glorph basis"), and if you did it, the machine would look something like this: it would disassemble the cat without learning much about it, and then measure a lot of things that didn't tell you whether it was dead or alive.

Here is where the problem arises practically: The cat has an enormous number of particles, and (naturally) exists as a vector in an exponentially large number of dimensions. Observing whether it is alive or dead is a measurement along an axis that you get the equipment for by default. On the other hand, building a machine that can take arbitrary measurements of millions and millions of particles would naturally give it so much freedom within that giant space of possible axes that the smallest misalignment would take you away from the glorph basis.
I hope you like dudes.
An even greater reason for the use of kanji is that the Japanese language has an enormous amount of homophones, words that are pronounced in the same way but have completely different meanings.

When talking, Japanese speakers can usually tell homophones apart based on the context. In written form, kanji make it much faster to understand what a given word means: for anything more complex than children’s books, it is actually quite hard to understand Japanese text written in a purely phonetic system (kana or latin).

There are many places that memory exists. Your processor cache is memory. Registers are memor-ish. Hard Drives have memory. If a bit flip happens in your hard drives memory before being written to disk, then it's not unreasonable to think that the bitflip would persist, even through reboots.

I have run queries at large companies and found mistakes most easily explained as bitflips in domain names written to disk. Imagine an environmental variable configuring the use of a proxy without proper whitelists and it's not unimaginable to me that a production machine would be able to speak to machines on the internet at large.

I am open to the idea that what I think is happening might not be the mechanics of what is happening, but I find the talk believable, not based on theory, but actually seeing persisted (and non-persisted) bit flips in domain names queried from data warehoused logs at world scale companies.

You're being weirdly obtuse here. Yes, you can make hardware perform faster by running it outside its design limits. That doesn't mean it's a good idea in the general case, even if the tradeoffs make sense for you as an individual.
Well, the reason why ECC mattered here is because the RAM was bad, but modern Mac computers do not come with user-serviceable RAM at all, so if you have a problem like this, it's a support ticket anyways, and I'm not even sure there's a true equivalent to Memtest86 for modern Mac computers in the first place. So basically, if it was a RAM problem, there's no point in diagnosing it even if you could; just send your Mac in when you start having issues that seem to be bad RAM.

Even with ECC, it's incredibly hard to know that a given one-off issue isn't a memory error, because even ECC can't detect 100% of memory issues. But without ECC, it's also nearly impossible to know if something is a memory error. If it's bad RAM, the same address will likely continue to exhibit bad behavior, but if it's a solar flare, you're never going to know the difference; you will just get incorrect behavior that may or may not crash, and it will be completely impossible to reproduce.

One big reason you don't hear it as much is there are not nearly as many data centers filled with Macs. There are definitely a few, and I bet if you got an experience report from them, they could give some idea of how visible memory errors are on Macs (although it's hard, because again, if you don't have ECC, there's not really a good way to know if something is a memory error; you can only really postulate.)

Takes some knowledge of the std lib of whatever language you're using (easy with C and Rust, harder with C++) to know what calls will try to allocate memory. But another method is to use a static buffer of bytes designated in the link table as your "heap" and have tasks only allocate when they start, and ensure they do not free that memory. Algorithmically, allocation is the easy part, reusing freed blocks is more difficult. So if your embedded allocator doesn't free and faults at OOM, if you allocate only at the start of a program, you can still be more confident in memory safety

This article seems pretty devoid of basic microeconomics? All of this is pretty simple. Unless you go non-profit (which is probably a better move for a lot of these things) you have to stare directly in the face of the following: What are we willing to tell the people -- you can't have X unless you pay for it.

in the long run, you can only get paid for what has a marginal cost; which usually ain't code OR data; so then it's "labor." That's support, maintenance, customization, someone you can call to get help, etc.

> It’s simply not economically viable to continue adding functionality to a product that does not generate any revenue.

I'd gently push back on this. If the primary purpose of the open source component of an open core project is to acquire new free users (top of funnel for paid users), then it provides some value. Any work spent keeping the open source experience good is essentially marketing spend and may make sense depending on the ROI. Agreed the incentive is to eventually get those users converted to paid users, but that's not inherently a bad thing IMO. Acknowledge there are better and worse ways to go about incentivizing users to convert to paid.

Overall I enjoyed the post. The latter half felt a bit less concise but intro was strong.
