Look at the Jellyfin one. Why is there something breaking the logo from the right? Lots of little things.

Fair. It’s not just that one though. I notice a lot of weird things there.

Why post this ai generated content? Since when does the docker logo have the Cassandra eye in it?

For property software you would be right. Yah.

But it’s open source AGPL stuff. Full time devs improving AGPL code is good even with pointy haired managers.

This all being said I don’t think even the managers aim to become more evil and more terrible as their goal.

I agree that taiga shouldn’t feature Haliburton.

This all bearing said do you really think the people working on Taiga seek to be more evil and more terrible?

I mean, technically they could have hyper agile teams that use taiga there?

When they say agile they don’t mean that the company is flexible and adjusts to new situations quickly.

They mean that those companies are some of the most proficient in Agile software development methodology.

To be fair I see how people can get them confused. But in the context of work tracking they clearly mean the latter. They even use the capital “A” in “Agile”.

This is the ableist attitude that the comic is trying to point out.

Everyone has physical health struggles more or less but when they get bad enough that you have to go to a hospital you get treated well and people don’t blame you and you aren’t expected to blame yourself.

Everyone also has mental health struggles more or less but when they get bad enough that you have to go to a hospital you get treated poorly and judged, people blame you and society pressures you to blame yourself.

Idk. I think using ai to learn Linux as you switch to it is fair ground. In the end they’re free from Microsoft. It’s a win. Just make sure they have data backups.

Why would you install Brave when he liked chrome? You could have gone with any other non crypto bro non ad company chrome fork.

Basic Chromium would have been better.

That’s not actually true. Technology connections made a few videos about it.

The broadcasting Beta format was basically a whole different format compared to that you could get at home. Completely unrelated.

Why would you choose the crypto bro ad company browser out of all the chrome spinoffs?

Why not use any of the others?

I mean it could be Mutex, or Rwlock or anything atomic. It’s just when I have to put stuff into an Arc<> to pass around I know trouble is coming.

You’ll be fine. You will learn the lifetime stuff and all will work out. It’s not that bad to be honest.

I mean yah. That’s what it takes. But like when I try to write code around Arc<_> the performance just tanks in highly concurrent work. Maybe it’s an OOP rust skill issue on my end. Lol.

Avoiding this leads, for me at least, to happiness and fearless, performant, concurrent work.

I’m not a huge fan of go-lang but I think they got it right with the don’t communicate by sharing memory thing.

Skill Issue.

For reals though adopting a functional style of programming makes rust extremely pleasant . It’s only when people program in object oriented styles that this gets annoying.

No loops, and no state change make rust devs happy devs.

Ask Cisco how they feel about it. There is a precedence of companies using copy left licensed software and the community benefiting from it.

If companies are just going to be blatantly criminal and violate software licenses they were going to do that anyways. I’m not sure how much experience you have working in or with mega corps but the ones I have worked with in the past HATE the idea of opening themselves up to being so blatantly liable.

When I worked in big tech we had a license scanner that checked the libraries we were using. Anything strongly copyleft would be flagged and we would be contacted by legal.

You might have experienced working with companies that act otherwise. I encourage you to call them out, maybe work with the FSF to get another Cisco style ruling.

Funny you mention ZFS though. It’s not the GPL that was the issue. It is CDDL that’s incompatible. GPL is generally comparable with foss licenses. MIT, MPL, Apache, BSD all are comparable. It’s just CDDL that’s incompatible with copyleft in general.

If you think the community will benefit more from MIT licensed software than copyleft I think you need to look harder at the modern corporate world. Corporations are not altruistic.

This being said I’m not sure there is much more to be said here. You’ve gone to saying I believe in magic and that there are corporate GPL conspiracies. I just don’t see the proof and I think there is not much more to be gained by such talk.

If “theft” is your only concern yes. It’s a common misconception that copyleft licenses stops rich companies from stealing. It does not.

I am more concerned about societal enrichment vs corporate enrichment.

If you release some code under MIT that a company finds useful, they could take it, improve it a bit, and resell it back to the community. This enriches the company at the expense of the community. Without the original code the company could have never taken it as a basis to sell and the community that wrote the code gets nothing.

If you release that same code as AGPL the company can take it, improve it and sell it to the community. BUT the difference is that the community now benefits from those improvements too. Maybe more improvements happen. Maybe a second company takes those improvements and sells them too. The community would have all the improvements and would benefit from greater competition.

With copy left licenses. The community is enriched and companies are enriched.

With MIT style licenses. Companies are enriched at the expense of the community.

I mean you can’t steal open source code if you tried. The code is too respectful of your freedoms. I don’t think anyone is arguing against you here.

In terms of algorithms, nothing. But you were the one who mentioned algorithms. I am speaking of code in general. I do want for persons to contribute back to the community if they use community sourced code. I don’t think we can trust corporations to be altruistic.

This all being said in your earlier message you were implying it’s all about ego. I was just saying it is not about ego.

For me it’s all about community resources and societal enrichment.

CC0 vs CC-SA is actually a really good (rough) analogy.
