Tech companies pay their staff in RSUs. I.e. stock in their company.

That means either issuing more or buying some from the market. Issuing more should upset shareholders and decrease the price as they've been diluted.

Thus I expect a key driver of stock buybacks is balancing the outflow of stock to employees.
But if Smart Paste makes errors even 1% of the time then that would be astonishing from an LLM benchmark POV and still completely unacceptable from a CRM reliability POV. Nobody wants a data entry system where you have to fix 1 in 100 rows because the computer made an error.
very yes

Of course it does.

> It's no different from inverting your mouse wheel scroll direction. If you're used to doing it one way you have to get used to doing it another way.

If you invert scroll direction it does not make the mouse stop working, it only hinders scrolling. But inverting steering has an immediate effect on balance, not just on your ability to take a turn.

Agreed, and this is why I never have contributed to a project with a CLA.
The concept predates von Neuman.

First known person to present the idea was mathematician and philosopher Nicolas de Condorcet in the late 1700s. Not surprising, because he also laid out most ideals and values of modern liberal democracy as they are now. Amazing philosopher.

He basically invented the idea of ensemble learning (known as boosting in machine learning).

Redis picked SSPL instead and cited those reasons for why

"It is based on the AGPL, with a modified Section 13 that requires that those making SSPL-licensed software available to third-parties (modified or not) as part of a “service” must release the source code for the entirety of the service, including without limitation all “management software, user interfaces, application program interfaces, automation software, monitoring software, backup software, storage software and hosting software, all such that a user could run an instance of the service using the Service Source Code you make available”, under the SSPL. MongoDB is the publisher of this license. They have a FAQ about the license https://www.mongodb.com/legal/licensing/server-side-public-l..."
I believe the sarcasm is around Sentry and implying that it's redis usage is poorly optimized. I'm not familiar with Sentry, but it looks like the self hosted version makes use of redis as part of it's underlying stack.
That your distribution is likely to drop Redis so you will have to install it from another repository.
> AWS of course is the single biggest reason why projects are flocking to more restrictive licenses

Don't forget that AWS is one of the biggest reasons so many OSS projects became popular. Redis, Mongo, ES, HashiCorp stuff, a complete big data ecosystem, got wider recognition through AWS's offering. Many people have yet to learn about dozens of obscure databases (that have been in development for years) simply because AWS or other big cloud providers have not pushed them.

Also, many projects receive a lot of contributions (bug reports, PRs, patches) due to liberal licenses increasing their use and popularity. I'm not particularly eager to contribute to anything with SSPL/BSL/etc-like licenses simply because I don't want to waste my time on something I can't use liberally in the future.
There's no point going from 1 village to another when you're a serf, and for centuries it was even illegal (at least in most of Central&Eastern Europe). Serfdom wasn't much different from slavery in practice - you couldn't own property, marry without the permission of your landlord, leave your village, etc. This only changed in 19th century.

Also villages, churches, manors, inns, markets, blacksmiths, and all the other necessary infrastructure was rarely more than 1 hour on foot away.

In my country there's 1 church per 30 km2, that's on average 6km between churches which is roughly 1 hour on foot.
For a dynamic solution massive redundancy and some kind of stakeholder
accounting. Some kind of "planetary file system" established in the
public interest.

Are the Wikipedia and Internet Archive good models?

Technically a kind of thing like a benevolent version of Web3.0 might
solve if it were not motivated solely by profit. IPFS and variants are
the landscape at the moment. The consideration (reward) for
participation is access to the whole corpus. You need to solve abuse
problems which mean Wikipedian-like entry guards and curating of
content insertion. Do you trust them? We'd need at least 10x
redundancy, so imagine more like a few million people with 10TB to
spare. That's not unreasonable in the next few years. But that needs
to be maintained or else swathes of data will be lost forever if not
enough copies are kept.

That means you need at least a few million people who seriously give a
shit, and those are getting harder to find each day.

Also, with advances in compression, that could be a lot less space if
you're prepared to trade-off access time. Like going to the library to
find and scan a newspaper, image making a request that takes the
distributed system several minutes or hours to lookup, assemble,
collect and decode all the pieces. That doesn't sit well with a "give
it me now!" culture.

For static a solution, burying a few petabytes of long-range storage
at strategic (maybe secret) locations is an assurance against Nineteen
Eighty Four/Fahrenheit 451 scenarios - a library to outlive the next
tin-pot "Thousand year Reich". But that doesn't give anyone
quick/random access to disputed facts and records.

A more political/human solution is to get more people caring about
history and truth, ad-hoc curation and preservation. That requites not
just liberation of data a la Aaron Swartz and Alexandra Elbakyan, but
hugely increasing the number of people who will participate in that
project. At this point, belief in the preservation of historical
human knowledge means fighting the law,
It's could still doing the authentication loop to check that you have the 'right' to access the things you downloaded, depending on how often the app refreshes the token they use to check.
Just to echo this, I can see if you are a program manager or something "programming adjacent" you also would have little to no use for ChatGPT (despite being in an area its mostly very good at). It removes all the "write me a snippet" low hanging fruit out of the job. E.g. if you are the one running the team of engineers, there's nothing like that, its all just the nuance / politics and human decision making that requires the full context (not something you can jot down easily for GPT). For finance, probably anyone doing math / quant / research could still have low hanging fruit (solve this integral, what's the formula, how do I do this in excel), but anyone who is mostly decision making can't get much value from GPT.
> opensources products can be used without talking to legal departements.

Pretty much every company I've worked at has wanted legal signoff for use of any open source project. Granted, compliance with that directive was often spotty. But some did have a tool to scan our repositories for dependencies, and flag things that had licenses not on an approved list (which, no, was not the entirety of OSI-approved licenses).
Any discount store bicycles in Australia are made in China and all have aluminium alloy frames from what I have seen. (Most are of a mountain bike or BMX style)
Check out DragonflyDB (BSL): https://www.dragonflydb.io/

BSL is not OSI-approved, but it’s a much more reasonable AWS-resistant license. It’s the same license CockroachDB uses, for example.

KeyDB (BSL, acquired by Snapchat) is also an option: https://keydb.dev/

BSL is a much better license, but it’s a gamble on how long KeyDB will be supported. I don’t want to mess around with such a core part of my architecture.

I wonder if much is know about the origins of wooden Chukudu scooters of Congo [1]?

The wikipedia article states that they date back to only the 1970s, but there does not appear to be any technology reason why they couldn't long pre-date that, and they apparently work well on dirt roads that have probably been around for a long time.

One article [2] claims they have been used "for centuries" but a quick Google did not find any evidence to back that up, but it does seem plausible.

Most likely, yes. Debian dropped MongoDB after their license change and Ubtuntu seems to have done the same. The last version with MongoDB is focal.

Did you read my reply. You are objectively wrong and I explained now. Your fish culture is caused by the industrialisation of food, which is what makes you think only salmon is good. Your point would only be valid if salmon was universally nicer to everyone. Like salmon is some inevitable singularity of fish consumption.

Why? I watch a lot of podcasts on youtube, it's interesting to see the interaction, so the visual component is not a negative.

How does it get around apple GPL ban?
A Deepness in the Sky was perhaps the first "hard sci-fi" novel I ever read (this was before I knew of Greg Egan). The concept of spiders and the onOff planet was just awe-inspiring.

While Egan's idea-density is off the charts, I found Deepness in the Sky to be the most complete and entertaining hard-scifi novel. It has a lot of novel science but ensures that the reader is never overwhelmed (Egan will have you overwhelmed within the first paragraph of the first page). Highly entertaining and interesting.

I wonder what Vinge thought of LLMs. If you've read the book, Vinge had literal human LMs in the novel to decode the Spider language. Maybe he just didn't anticipate that computers could do what they do today.

A huge loss indeed.

> instead of having OSS contributions from some of the best engineers in the world, redis (and other now OSS software) should compete with FAANG to pay those engineers.

This already happens. Amazon is never the main contributor. That blog post talks about 33 commits for MariaDB for 2023. Like, that's great and all, but that project doesn't run on those 33 commits. It's the same with Elastic; when they did their license change I looked a bit at the commit history, and something like >95% was by Elastic.

And all these projects that did license changes are fine.

Birth of Lcdp.ai Low Code Development Platform
LCDP.ai is a low code development platform that helps you ship faster. It's the best way to build highly customised enterprise applications.

I would like to also share some of my thoughts on low code development, for traditional development, they are mostly involves

- Manual Coding Required

- Long Development Time

- Complex Maintenance

- Rigid Processes

- Expert Developers Needed

While for no code development platform, most of the time it likes the follow

- Basic Customization Only

- Limited Functionality

- Dependency on Platform

- Not for Complex Systems

- Potential Performance Issues

And we target to fix both the issue of traditional Dev and no code

So we have created a comprehensive low code development platform called http://lcdp.ai aimed to perfectly mix of no-code Simplicity and Traditional Dev Flexibility.

So it has the follow features

> 10x Productivity Boost

> Fully Advanced Customization.

> Flexible SaaS/Private Deployment

I am a little bit fascinated by the way that many people seem to think so highly of Gelsinger, and I even think it is possible that he will succeed in leveraging that to make Intel competitive.

However, just from his public persona of wildly optimistic sales/marketing pitches and showmanship, while outsourcing their own manufacturing to TSMC, I have a very bad impression.

Then his claims of Intel zettaflop machines by 2027 honestly make me think he is totally delusional, but maybe that does not matter.

It's not viral enough. It's easy for AWS to host a version of an AGPL project and just point to the source code. Cloud hosted instances are the primary business models for a lot of projects. The solution is to add a requirement that any platform the software is hosted on also has to be open source.

>Unfortunately: there's about 10-20% of people who genuinely shouldn't be working because they are untrustworthy, and things like remote work just enabled them to take multiple jobs or slack-off massively.

Many of these people suffer from chronic procrastination. They don't want to slack off, but they do it anyway. They want to work, but they're not capable of working in a remote environment. These might be the people who have ADD/ADHD, people who suffer from depression, extroverts, etc. For some of them, the fix is surprisingly easy: put them in an environment where there are people around them. It can be a coffee shop, library, or whole-day video call.

AIUI JITX has potential to serve non-mainstream markets, including hobbyists, in ways that people aren't really imagining at this point.

Unfortunately for them, though, the mainstream market, along with all of the incumbents, is where the $$ is that would fund non-mainstream support. If the prime rate was still ~0% you might see a strategy out of JITX wherein they'd first take some spectacular swings for the fences in smaller markets. Those kind of successes would make quite the splash here.

But now they've got to go fight it out for the enterprise seats, and, for a half-dozen reasons, post-haste. If they can manage that successfully, I expect they'll soon also be able to do great things for hobbyists, on hobbyist budgets.
They have been shaping cheap steel bikes like that for years to make them look like aluminum. Some of the buyers aren't even looking for an aluminum bike, they just want a 'bicycle' that looks modern. It's a pity because it means the bike is much heavier than it would be if it had nice slim steel tubes.
VM is an overloaded term, it both means virtual computers that run some OS kernels, and runtime that runs some usually* user-space code.

Nevertheless the leeches will start a big PR campaign about how the creators are evil for wanting a piece of the pie just like they did for Terraform
Do you really think they planned this from the start, intending to change the license as soon as enough people use it? To me, that's reading malice into a situation that could equally be explained by changing circumstances over time, which does not meet the definition of bait and switch
I get the sense you have some anger towards the faith, so I hesitate to respond. I'm not trying to argue with you. But I do want to address your points at least from my perspective.

> Money&Power is attraction

The leaders receive an annual "living expense" stipend. It's not publicly available, but there have been data leaks. The last data leak puts it at $130k in 2014 (estimated to be $178k in 2024). See https://widowsmitereport.wordpress.com/comp/. While this is a decent amount of money, given the educational/business success of most of the leadership it's likely less than most would have made had they not given up their career. Does that justify it? That's up to each person to decide. But given that there are ~17 million members of the faith, and 117 people receive the stipend, I think there are more lucrative approaches for making money. To be clear there are other paid employees of the Church too, though no local clergy are paid. If you walk into a typical church meeting on Sunday not a single person there is being paid. The employees work in IT/accounting/etc type roles that a large organization would have.

> The Church has $265 billion in assets. Their power and influence goes way beyond that. The Ensign Peak portfolio alone is over $50 billion and they vote in board meetings.

Investing is a good thing. It's what creates more/better jobs. Why shouldn't the investment managers vote in board meetings? They're acting as a wise investor by doing so.

> They suck money from their members with annual tithing

Members willingly donate as an act of faith. There isn't a bowl/hat or anything passed around. Donations are made predominantly online now too.

> they give only tiny fraction of their income to humanitarian work

I would like to see overall humanitarian aid increased, and from what I understand that is the goal. For context though, they donated > $1 billion in 2022. And this doesn't account for the countless hours members volunteer for free. The money alone is more than what's donated by every country on the earth aside from USA and Germany. See https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/2022-annual... and https://www.statista.com/statistics/275597/largers-donor-cou....

Yes, when most people say MySQL they actually mean MariaDB.
Well I always welcome a healthy discussion so feel free to answer. I’ve really just grown tired of seeing outrage that software which was previously “OS as defined by the famous organizations” changes to protect their commercial interests.

Like you said, there’s a continuum, and I really don’t think that “you can’t sell this as a service” is a huge restriction on freedom. Especially when I can still use the software (even commercially) if I host it myself. Many of these services (Redis, Elastic Search, Mongo, etc) wouldn’t really exist without commercial use cases, and I really care more about protecting individuals freedoms and the use case of a human using a machine in their own hands for their own use. The extent of my interest in OSS being good/bad (if you can make that claim at all) is in the impact to individuals at home.

Also, the server side license just feels like the modern viral license we should have. GPL ensures all code running together is forced open, and AGPL ensures clients are open, and this ensures that the server is open. Seems good to me the same way GPL or AGPL are good.

I view it like government regulation. Bureaucracy is waste and I’m all for enriching society and creating new jobs and products with better commerce… but environmental protections and safety protections help society. If your business can’t exist without endangering someone, I won’t miss it. If your business exists solely to resell free software (explicitly designed for commercial use) that someone else made, and they don’t want to give it to you for free anymore, I won’t care it if you need to change up your business.
