Some time ago I tried to argue for a FOSS license that would disallow code from being used by AI. I got a lot of negative feedback saying that this wouldn't be FOSS because it imposes restrictions etc. The same is true for the SSPL. But for long term FOSS viability, I think we may need to impose some restrictions to protect ourselves from big bad megacorps who effectively exploit FOSS developers.

Stupid ask:

Can't developers sue this company for false advertising ?

This started off as one thing and ended up being something else. They probably at any point did not hint about changing license in the future, just guessing.

For any open projects , couldn't dev. request for keeping the license as is or Free(or whatever relevant) before letting their code merged.

This may sound illogical to someone who is a domain expert, but this is just a dumb question from someone who has almost 0 clue on this topic.
That argument is questionable. C is trivial. The PC architecture is not, and the Linux architecture absolutely not. What makes kernel programming hard is that there is a lot of knowledge that must be internalized, exactly how the DMA works for certain hardware, or why this specific bit need to be set in that lock. There's often no simple way of debugging or single stepping these things without simulating hardware.

The kernel could have been written in assembly with macros, it wouldn't make its development any harder. The best Rust can do is not make kernel more difficult than it already is.
> I had a lot of opinions like this too when I was 17, but age and experience has disabused me of many of them.

Sure, I didn't say I agree with them, I barely remember when I was 17, it was that long ago.

I'm saying that young people that I meet are more interested in c so the 'in 20 years no-one knows c' is not exactly true.

We try Rust now and then; it's not worth it yet in my opinion for what we do. The tooling and libs we have for c are vast and like said, c people are really easy to get, Rust not so much.

I hope this changes, but for now it's just too much of a struggle to warrant it. And I was only responding to the fear of not having capable c devs in 20 years. There will be plenty.

China was in no shape to challenge US hegemony a few decades ago, now they are. China wasn't as militant and nationalistic under Deng, now they are.

Japan in 1940 was a very different beast to Japan in 1950, and it would be misguided to think Japan would launch another war in the 1950s just because "they" recently did that. "They" (values, democratic governance, free press, etc) change over time. You should go straight to an analysis of the values and system of the current people that live there, instead of whatever their ancestors did.

If a country starts talking like Japan did in the 1930s, even if they have no history of war, then I will assign a high probability that they will start behaving like Japan of the 1940s. They are humans just like the Japanese were humans and will produce the same behavior given the same bad ideas and circumstances.

Modern China is a revisionist power (much like Russia) with the capability to challenge the US. For these reasons, them launching an invasion of Taiwan is plausible. It is against their economic self-interest, but that doesn't completely deter nations from launching wars. National security concerns and national pride can trump economic concerns.

>Demonstration is a human right

1. if you read my previous comment more carefully, my objection isn't against the fact that they're demonstrating at all, it's that the account you gave was very one-sided. It's possible to be for "Demonstration is a human right" but still acknowledge what exact activities they're engaging in and not rounding it off to just "demonstrating". Failing to do so is disingenuous and kills your credibility, ultimately hurting the cause you're trying to advocate for.

2. "Demonstration" might be a "human right", but it has limits. As (presumably) a German, you should know this given how many restrictions you have on free speech[1], another "human right". There's presumably complicated statutory and case law that determines exactly what constitutes as protected "demonstration", but I doubt that "unilaterally blocking a construction project that's already approved, by setting up an encampment" counts.

Why should that matter? I'm sure the percentage would be way smaller if this was the license used initially.
The android app has been awful for years now.
Don't even think of using it if you have a bad connection, even the context menus have an animated loading circle thing.

You're dramatically underestimating how dangerous sea travel was. Millions of people lost their lives at sea, up to and including during the Age of Sail where we had been doing it for millennia. For instance Vasco de Gamma was the first person to discover a route from Europe to India. And that's relatively easy since you can get there by simply following the coast from Africa onward to India.

He set out with 170 men and 4 ships. 55 men and 2 ships returned. And that was not particularly remarkable - scurvy, inclement weather, rogue waves, supplies going bad, and countless other issues meant death at sea was a regular part of traveling at sea. Magellan is another one. We all learn in school that he was the first man to cross the globe. What we don't necessarily learn is that he didn't survive the voyage. He set out with 5 ships and 270 men - 18 men, not including Magellan, and 1 ship returned.

Exploration and ultimately colonization has never been something for those unwilling to risk it all, and it may very likely never be. The entire point of such things is that you're setting out to do and discover what has not been done, and what has not been discovered. In this context it's essentially impossible to have any assurance of safety.
Which is a bit surprising because they make their money from the AI/LLM hype now, which presumably is all Linux.

So Linux should be a priority for them, just not on the desktop. But the step should be small.
I once worked at a similar office park. A pair of geese chased secretaries and CEOs alike. Very egalitarian. No one was spared. All ran to their cars in fear.

But there was one day when they met their match. Another pair of geese appeared like magic. Just wandering around like they owned the place. The original pair were not happy. They hissed and waved their wings in anger. The new pair did the same. Uncowed. The original pair decided to charge the interlopers and chase them off. Lowered their necks. Went full speed at them. Then slammed into the glass doors because they were attacking their own reflections.

They spent the rest of the day, greatly humbled, swimming around the office park pond. Gave everyone a break for a couple of days before resuming the usual CEO & secretary hunt.

10 and 14 kids are outlier numbers by late 20th / 21st century Mormon standards. 4-6 is more common and 2-3 aren't uncommon.

There's probably a bit of ag heritage at work here (though the mountain west has definitely been leaving that behind for the last few decades).

The religious narrative is that it's (a) it's part of God's plan for your personal development & happiness and (b) it's a duty to give a good spiritual home with a father and mother part of the true faith to as many of God's children as possible.

It's probably objectively common (though hardly universal) that people report parenthood to be a crucible of personal growth and a source of meaning and satisfaction, and it's certainly arguable it's evolutionarily adaptive to be that way, so (a) checks out pretty well (though it's a little less clear how well particulars like "marry at 21" serve people).

(b) is as unfalsifiable as any faith, but much in the way one can say a faith discouraging reproduction is likely to have a lifespan close to a single generation, faiths that encourage it are likely to have better internal replacement and growth rates, which might be especially important if you're a minority faith with modest conversion success.
I agree it would be good to clarify this. I have a product that does some background job processing using Sidekiq and Redis, and it seems that this would not constitute "making the software available", in particular where it says:

Making the functionality of the Software or Modified version available to third parties includes (...) offering a product or service, the value of which entirely or primarily derives from the value of the Software or Modified version (...).

Since the value is not _primarily_ derived from using Redis, I guess it's fine. I am sure the majority of projects using Redis in some way do not derive their main value from Redis.
Global foundries seems like a better bet than intel for that objective.
Nope. This is tied to the whole "Free as in speech, not beer" thing.

Open Source has core definitions around the freedoms (the "speech") allowed to people when making use of that source code.

Source available makes the source code available for free (the "beer") along with certain specific freedoms, but not all of the freedoms that would be required to be Open Source.

Whether or not you think those missing freedoms are important is a matter of personal opinion, I suppose. I think they are, which is why I try to avoid source available software if there is a reasonable open source alternative.
Can you elaborate on this? I have seen a fair amount of criticism of AGPL on here recently and am trying to understand the perspective.

Fully on board, but no mention if they’ll be releasing the source used to run Redis on Azure. Do they have an exemption? A separate license?

On one hand I could see why Microsoft would back the original project, since they likely don’t want Amazon owning a replacement (elasticsearch). But I’m not sure how they plan to honour the new licensing?
This is a very personal attack-like reply (weird, imagining, fudging etc.), and I believe it has no place on Hacker News.

Anyway, no vessel that ever left the low Earth orbit was ever lost to cosmic dust. How am I expected to provide examples of something that never happened?

As for losses of old wooden ships en route to Australia, there were plenty. Being a sailor was the most dangerous profession in the Age of Sail, and the very reason why sailors got tattos was a chance to be recognized as a drowned corpse.
A large part of the price in indeed related to offer vs demand but that's the basics for any market.
Now it's funny because you also say "Estate agents charge more because people will pay it because anyone who can’t afford it goes homeless [...]".
So it isn't just offer and demand isn't it?

When you think about it, even in areas like London the housing market is not liquid nor uniform enough for the offer vs demand model to apply. You don't rent/buy home like you buy strawberries.

In about 1 year there was no significant increase in demand and the supply stayed the same but everybody saw its rent increase.

Edit: Also we should not mix-things up, the housing market is very different in outliers like London compared to the more global market. Here we're in the context of those outliers (Paris, London, etc.)

> I think there's a large pool of good talent that can't fully be trusted to do the right thing (not slack off)

Ever worked in an office? At any corporation size no one works 8 hours a day and if you want to slack, there are plenty opportunities in the office as well. Hell, you can spend the whole day there without doing ANYTHING.

So that is a non-point for me, slackers gonna slack.
Similar here. "Podcasts" (without RSS feeds) really ground my gears and eventually I got fed up by the algorithm playing the same 8 songs I didn't like (in playlists of hundreds).

FWIW, Tidal isn't all it's hyped up to be either; they also do some dumb stuff. But it's a solid competitor that at least isn't Spotify.
No, it's the other way around. Right now web search is "disruptive" to the LLM business model.

Google is a business fundamentally oriented around loss leaders. They make money on commercial queries where someone wants to buy something. They lose money when people search for facts or knowledge. The model works because people don't want to change their search engine every five minutes, so being good at the money losing queries means people will naturally use you for the money making queries too.

Right now LLMs take all the money losing queries and spend vast sums of investor capital on serving them, but they are useless for queries like [pizza near me] or [medical injury legal advice] or [holidays in the canary islands]. So right now I'd expect actually Google to do quite well. Their competitor is burning capital taking away all the stuff that they don't really want, whilst leaving them with the gold.

Now of course, that's today. The obvious direction for OpenAI to go in is finding ways to integrate ads with the free version of ChatGPT. But that's super hard. Building an ad network is hard. It takes a lot of time and effort, and it's really unclear what the product looks like there. Ads on web search is pretty obvious: the ads look like search results. What does an ad look like in a ChatGPT response?

Google have plenty of time to figure this out because OpenAI don't seem interested. They've apparently decided that all of ChatGPT is a loss leader for their API services. Whether that's financially sustainable or not is unclear, but it's also irrelevant. People still want to do commercial queries, they still want things like real images and maps and yes even ads (the way the ad auction works on Google is a very good ranking signal for many businesses). ChatGPT is still useless for them, so for now they will continue to leave money on the table where Google can keep picking it up.
> Thank you. 17% cancer risk per 100g daily red meat is an alarming correlation.

It is an increase of 17%, not 17% cancer risk.

It's not obvious that a bicycle would be in any way better than a carriage. So it makes sense that people tried to improve carriages instead of single riders. If you ignore the pollution aspects of cars, and the problems caused by the sheer number of them, they are a superior mode of transport to bicycles. If I were a 1400s inventor, a 4 wheel carriage with pulleys would seem much more attractive than a 2 wheeled contraption which leaves me exposed to the elements.
So basically another Total Commander or similar? Is it faster than the "* Commanders" already available?

Could you elaborate or share some articles on why QFT is a counterexample to western reductionism ? In laymans terms that is.
Sure. Only the new contributions are under the new license the older contributions are not affected at all.

The follow-up question would be what allows them to still use the old contributions together with the new proprietary ones and the answer is: the permissive license of the old contributions.

If the old contributors have not wanted that, they should not have contributed to a project under a permissive license.
It's one of the most popular services in the world, but has one of the worst user experiences of all the apps I use.

This is really common. It's a sign that the value isn't derived from the software itself, but what the software enables you to do. It doesn't need to be good. People pay to access Spotify's library of music and podcasts, despite the UI.

When you run a startup having people hungry to use your MVP despite it's flaws is a classic signal that you're on to something valuable. I could list hundreds of shockingly bad apps that have awful user experiences that I've happily used over the last 40 years because they all did something I really wanted or needed to do. Almost every 'enterprise' app is a total mess from a UI perspective - but they make a fortune because the value that users get from them make it worth putting up with.

People think a beautiful UI is something that every app needs, but really every app just needs to do something useful. None of them need a good UI until there's a competitor with an equivalent service that has a better UI. Only then does the UI actually matter, because it becomes something users will use to choose which service they buy.
That Redis cannot be included in many Linux distributions anymore. Is that enough of a practical impact?
Like which one? Like the other commenters under you, I can only think of forks that lasted long enough

Probably some survivor bias
There is larger community impact of not being FOSS. Most immediate, distros will not package it anymore. Overall you will not be able to include Redis in FOSS projects in the same way anymore. In longer term this means that Redis will not enjoy similar integration with other projects; FOSS projects tend to prefer using/depending/integrating other FOSS projects, so Redis becoming non-FOSS means that it loses that preferred status. And so on.
There is no way I can perceive reading on an expensive device as more comfortable than paper. Paper is fairly cheap, lightweight and resilient; I can carry it around, fold it, toss it aside, sit on it by accident while thinking, annotate it with scribbles, and pour coffee on it with aplomb and finesse. I can flip it, half-tear it in anger, drool on it when I reach my brain capacity. I can take it hiking with me without fear of breaking or losing it. In other words, paper is a tool that gets out of my way.

I did try all the devices you listed above, even had my department pay serious money, and ended up barely using them for all those reasons. I am a mathematician, I am clumsy and I want to focus on my problem-solving; I want to think, and babysitting devices and tools is not what I want to spend my brainspace on.

> We can naively split the world into two types of people: givers and takers.

It’s a sliding scale and not set in stone. I used to be too much on the giver side until burnout forced me to learn how to apportion my time better.

At the end of the day, most employers pay you to spend x hours per day solving their problems and thus creating value. If you stretch and give them more than you are obligated to then is it really their fault or your fault? You should use neutral phrases like “I don’t currently have bandwidth for this” or “I can’t make any promises because X is a higher priority”. Your manager most likely has no clue of how overloaded you are and will appreciate being informed before it becomes a medical issue.

Of course, some employers are toxic and will not take no for an answer. These are the exception to the rule and the only resolution really is finding a new job.

To "prove" is to derive from a set of consistent axioms. There is no set of universally agreed axioms for badness and in fact the vast majority of people do not even have a consistent set of moral beliefs. Simply changing how you phrase a question can get very different answers (e.g. "conscription" vs "murder slavery" vs "making people defend the country that defends them").
Readwise Reader has a nice pdf reader with highlighting, notes, and an AI reader tool. I organize sources using tags. It's very new and in active development.
