Really, the situation reminds me of the Cambrian explosion. Maybe we really do have to try out all these variations to eventually settle on bilateral symmetry and four legs...
Sorry, this goes a bit beyond bullet points - In my opinion, this happens when people think they can work in parallel to the "formal" process because they don't need it, they are smarter then people who came before who figured out that its a good thing to collect and organize information and control its flow.

Regardless if you work according to some "formal" process or not, you are working in some way (process) which is then not "formal" (as its called in contrast to what actually?), i.e., unstructured.

Putting stuff in a mail formatted as bullet point provides the impression of it being organized but probably its not because it does not belong in that mail in the first place.
This is just every single news cycle. If it's not going to revolutionize everything then you're going to bore your audience to death. Hype is overhyped. Welcome to the 21st century.

Year of Prototypes: Topple – Particle Simulation in Odin
The incentives are totally different because AWS doesn’t earn any direct revenue from AWS CDK. If someone makes some resold version of it, AWS still makes the same money from the infrastructure created.
We should be, but we end up treating cats and dogs differently than we do rats and centipedes.
Not only that, but this company is profiting off of HashiCorp's work and is complaining that they can no longer do so.

The worst part is the gentle giants such as Amazon can completely abuse HashiCorp's open source license and pull all the customers to AWS internal products, leaving HashiCorp out in the cold.

HashiCorp is doing the correct thing here.
I am a fan of HashiCorp but as someone who tried to use Terraform Cloud, I can’t help but think they wouldn’t be having this problem if they had a more competitive cloud product. They have a huge (and well-deserved) advantage in distribution over companies like Spacelift because they own the toolchain. The fact that they are resorting to this tells you what you need to know about Terraform Cloud.
I'm really bummed out by this.

As someone who has worked on IAAS with terraform, I am not sure if I can recommend it anymore. I'll have to talk to my manager about our use of it to make sure we are "compatible" with the license, which is far too vague.

... Too bad. I liked terraform.

90% of Lisp programming is selecting an expression in your editor and pressing C-x C-e to execute it. And continue until you are satisfied it operates as you want, then integrate it in the larger system.
What made Firefox originally successful (and gave it significant marketshare against a preinstalled incumbent) was the features. They simply made a better browser than the status-quo at the time.

I don't understand nor approve their current strategy of trying to make a Chrome clone - even if they actually make a perfect copy, why would people use it instead of Chrome itself?

The only way for Firefox to survive and thrive is to differentiate itself from the incumbents and offer features that those incumbents can't offer due to conflicts of interest such as built-in ad blocking. Make a better browser and people will come.

At the moment there is no reason for any non-technical user to use it over Chrome, since in its default configuration it's no better (and being non-technical means they are not aware of add-ons/etc). Give non-technical users an actual reason to pick it over Chrome.

Worse, their current strategy is actually alienating their current (mostly-technical) users, effectively working against their already-tiny marketshare.

You can't change the MPL code to GPL. You can change net-new files to GPL, but the existing files must remain MPL AFAIK (unless you're HashiCorp). IANAL
My grandmother had them when I was growing up. Their adorable assholes. Like fat dogs. They love attention and are very stubborn and patient when it comes to getting their way.

Or, less contentiously - if you know you don't care/don't need to disambiguate dups, look how much efficiency you're losing on a case that isn't important.

The most common argument against optimization is "just use the existing code", but the "existing code" _always_ attempts to handle special edge cases that probably don't apply in your case. We programmers waste a lot of end-user time saving a bit of programmer time.

TIL that wigwam and wickiup are two names for similar enough dwellings that we may consider them the same thing. I always thought that wigwams were bigger. They're usually called wigwams in the northeast among the Iroquois confederacy and wickiups in the southwest among the Apache.
Yeah, it's not binary. BSL is worse than open source, but it sucks way less than fully closed products. I'll at least consider using it.

My big gripe with the BSL is when companies switch from a proper open source license to the BSL, sometimes they try to sell it as a positive development, which is BS. The HashiCorp announcement is better than some in this regard, worse than others. Claiming it's the "evolution" of open source is weird spin, of course.

I also feel like any company switching from open source to BSL puts a stench of death / desperation on them, and it makes me worry for their future. If they have to make OSS -> BSL switch today, what's the next user hostile change going to be? Will they even survive?
This exactly. There's an old-school method called Zettelkasten, which you can apply to modern computing systems like Org Roam or similar "databases" if you so choose.
Bicep does that, but it's Azure only, and you can't really 'destroy', just apply.

This board is an order of magnitude more capable as a general CPU than the original, that's why it takes more power. The SAM L22 processor on it has 32 kilobytes of RAM and 256 kilobytes of code/flash storage vs basically zero memory or programmability on the original. You could easily run micropython, tinygo, johnny five (JavaScript), lua or other high level languages directly on the L22 processor here. It's a fun board for embedded electronics hobbyists. If you've ever played with an Arduino, this is basically one you can wear on your wrist in a classic watch shell.

I don't think this product is for you if you're just expecting a longer battery life watch... and that's ok!

Avid mystery (and romance) readers just burn through books. A lot of them aren't that great, but they're designed to pass the time, not stand out as works of art. So that's why there are so many of them, and why they're often kind of crap. Like sitcoms, or TV police procedurals. The standards aren't that high because people just want something that's pretty okay in a familiar style.

Of course there are writers who write in any genre and produce really great stuff, but you're not likely to find them by picking books at random from Goodwill, by Sturgeon's law (90% of everything is crap) alone.
Was the 7 in FAANG at one company? What was your role there? Does that role exist elsewhere?

FWIW, particularly at large companies, I wouldn't have thought the average engineer would be touching Kubernetes, or the build pipeline, or whatever; there's a fair bit of specialisation in large companies. And some companies don't even use Kubernetes; despite appearance, it is not mandatory :)

Amazon is able to make use of open source and keep all the benefits private.

By holding smaller companies to this OSS purity yardstick, we're allowing the Amazons of the world to clone them wholesale and reap all of the benefits.

The world needs more small companies, not big ones. This is the right way for small companies to protect themselves.

Hashicorp have Terraform registered as a trademark[0] and they themselves have said they don't want the name used in a way that is confusing or suggests enforcement by Hashicorp[1]. So the GP definitely cannot call themselves "OpenTerraform".

> Without the volunteer work of hundreds of unpaid individuals, HashiCorp products would not be successful, there would be no ecosystem, and the company would not exist.

> To claim it solely exists because of open source is a falsehood. Companies that can’t make money don’t exist.

This is a logical fallacy. Saying that something wouldn't exist if it weren't for something is not the same as saying it solely exists because of that thing. I wouldn't exist if it weren't for my mom. Obviously that's true and very different than saying I solely exist because of my mom. The former points out something that contributed to existence but is silent on any other contributions. The latter would be big news.
Haiku-os originally used NewOS as the basis for its kernel. NewOS as far as I know has not received updates in many years and is in archive mode.
For many, long books are not read in comfortable/perfect environments, they just read wherever they are for whatever time they have. In the train, at the doctor, while waiting for your meal to cook etc. In that respect having a commute helps tremendously.

If you feel staying still doesn't help, moving around (or even walking around) should be fine.

It’s tempting to think that if you just look and think hard enough you can find perfect analogs between the past and the present. But when you do that, you don’t engage with the past on it’s own terms and your understanding of it is fundamentally weakened. It’s best not to do that.

Well, can next Terraform successor be build by few vendors and community, not just a single one?

Not a single vendor should own it all or even the majority.

The configuration of ssh vs https can break a lot of workflows, the inability to (reliably) track a branch from a submodule can make maintenance a pain, I've never really figured out how to reasonably do a rebase in the presence of gitmodules changes on both branches, github actions had broken support for submodules for quite awhile... just to name a few.

There's not one giant issue with submodules. There are dozens of small annoyances and footguns. I have yet to see a problem that is better solved by git submodules that can't be solved another way.
Firefox would actually pay for itself. The Enterprise spends insane money on (potentially dubious) security products.

The browser is the primary interface to untrusted and often-malicious code, as well as a window to the outside world. It's the perfect place for security features that would actually make a difference.

Sell an enterprise-focused browser with built-in ad & tracker blocking (important for security), website restriction policies (which are currently implemented via various hacks such as DNS blocking), logging and data loss prevention and centralized management. Use that to subsidize the free version.

They won't even need to restrict the free version's features; all the code can remain open-source. Enterprise customers pay for the support and the hosted services (case in point - Okta has a successful business despite there being plenty of free, self-hostable alternatives).

Mozilla has a huge competitive advantage here - they have brand recognition (especially among IT folks which would help sell it to the enterprise), a competent and up-to-date rendering engine (no small feat these days) and at least some skill left to work on said rendering engine. They're in the perfect position to actually be able to offer a browser product (as opposed to a Chromium reskin which is all that the competition does).
The Terraform language should not be impacted by the license change any more than the GCC license impacts code it compiles (for example). I'd love to hear any assertions to the contrary.
Thank you for the information! This is the first time I'm hearing about it. Would you happen to know how this information is used? Is it just for the maintainer, or is there a tool that can use it? (I couldn't find any other reference)

What about a position or chair that lets you lean back a little (convex) instead of slouch forward (concave)? I've always felt much better in that position than slouching forward. Though my ideal position is laying belly down on the floor (insane). I've also been known to pace circles on my patio while reading.

I personally moved to audiobooks. It's slower, but made up for the fact that I can go for a walk, cook, clean the house, so it's much more time effective than sitting down to read for extended periods.
this is difficult for me to think about in the same way as trying to picture a 4th dimension.

surely, state needs to be tracked somehow. what would an alternative even be?
> Well you do not need rapidly evolve Terraform, few small vendors and enthusiast would be able to do that.

Probably true regarding entirely new features, but I think just keeping up with all the different API changes across the modules would be a massive amount of work in itself.
there's also cdk-tf (for terraform)

Apparently this kernel became the core of Haiku OS, and Travis went on to work on Fuscia at Google.
I... do not think so? Yes, creating a commercial github action to apply terraform would, but any non-commercial and/or non-distributed one should be fine, no?

My thread is exactly about how to do this first step :-)

I have done all those things over the years, and I never had an idea come out of it. Perhaps there is something wrong with me, where I am just good at being a corporate cog.
Right. @Dang: it could be useful to have the source domain specified in the RSS feeds.

Not only it makes sense to have a title like 'New Version' accompanied by '(product.com)',

but also titles like 'Great Discovery' are better qualified by 'uni.edu|magazine.net|producer.com ...'

If a user is using your web application normally and ends up with an error, it is an application error. Be it a 401, 403, validation error, 500, 429, whatever, it is not an actual user fault but it is a problem within the application.

>It's true, resource allocation is very important. But is the free market more important than for example the declining life expectancy in the US?

The free market does not know or care. It takes the preferences of all the people and the government they elected and combines them. If people choose health they get it. If they choose the opposite they get it. That's sort of the point here.

It might be surprising that people prefer being fat and watching TV to long, educated, lives. But it does seem to be their preference.

I am all for trying to change that. But people were lazy and gluttonous long before Private equity (a tiny part of the wider system) ever reared it's head...
It's hard to talk about this and clearly convey all meaning.

If you're saying that it will decide because neural nets are black boxes which we don't have a complete understanding of, and we're without a clear way to analyze their behavior, I can see where you're coming from.

But these things will not be beyond our influence. They're going to be slaves to the computations encoded in the neural net connections / weights. We're going to shape / mold them through a process akin to natural selection. We're going to select for intelligences that want to help humanity. It's not going to be a roll of a normal dice, it'll be more like the roll of a weighted dice. And we're going to, I believe, get better tools / theories for understanding the output of these neural nets so we will be able to conduct this selection with some confidence.

Humans can be said to decide what we're going to do thanks to an uncaring, unconscious, and brutal evolutionary process that prioritized self-interest, survival, and reproduction. It's all about the selection process, and this time around we have a hand in guiding it.

Just my two cents anyway.

While well intentioned, I think this is basically a harder to use reddit (or Disqus, as the other poster mentioned).

Browser extension means you exclude most mobile users, which is half or more of an average website's audience.

People generally talk about topics, not domains, like "best air fryer" and not "Amazon.com" (which is too big a discussion) or airfryers.com (which is probably some spam site). The mapping between topics and domains is not simple.

Your free speech ideals are going to run into massive spam, porn, abuse, trolling, and propaganda issues within a few days. Without extensive moderation your comments will be worthless within a few weeks.

There is no discoverability and search. No way to find what other people are talking about unless you happen to have the extension and go to a specific website.

You'll be hated by website owners because they have no say or control over this additional metalayer, no way to integrate it into their layout, respond to comments, delete certain ones, etc.

I would love to be proven wrong though :/
