Interesting. Thank you for the insights. Now I have to look up why Netflix uses BSD...
It was some random idiot on the web talking shit. Even worse, it was an idiot on Twitter, the shithole of the internet. There's no need to address them. Most people didn't even know what the context was. Addressing it just gave more "publicity" to them.
It's not even poking the hornet's nest, it's a calling out to a haggle of trolls. Fuck those people. Don't give them attention.
We need a new license that requires payment if the use is commercial. One of the people involved in the coining of the term "open source" is already working on a licence, but maybe another one will be released earlier.
Companies that freeload from open source now should be forced to pay up.
pyenv, virtualenv, pipenv, aren't package managers... they are virtual environment managers / creators and use pip for package management.
BSD is a top choice? I only thought it was on it's way out. I've never seen it used or mentioned outside of "Mac is based on BSD!!!".
The "why" section didn't really explain why Quantum is investing in BSD at all. Did something happen additionally that led them to invest in BSD laptops of all things?
Maven and Cradle might be terrible, but C and C++ have fucking nothing in terms of dependency management. Even C# has something that few people use, but it has something. C and C++ are such a shit show to build. It's so bad they had to invent languages to build them and they regularly fuck up (CMake, make, bison, scons, meson, ...).
Pull a C or C++ project on a distro or environment and try to build it and you have to dive in the abyss of undeclared dependencies. And good fucking luck with glibc and glib dependencies. If the dev doesn't know which version they were actually using, it's up to you to find out. Fun for the entire family!
I just disabled balloo. It has never served me any purpose and I've never found a good description of what it does. It has never completed indexing of my files and would always start indexing (seemingly) randomly after failing.
Baloo is off on every KDE desktop I've set up (mine, friends, and family).
Probably for for wearables? I can't think of other uses for bendable circuits. But there surely will be people who will innovate and it'll be interesting to see what they come up with.
And they cost a dollar to make because they have terrible performance. Once that goes up, so will the price.
I either missed it or it isn't in the "developer tools" section: how do you connect this to an IDE or editor with an LSP or DAP? The image might have python:3.12 but locally you only have python:3.6 mind you, so it's not something one can ignore. How do you handle this?
Even this article of the thread states it dropped from 76% to 24% through the introduction of Rust.
If you seriously think:
I'd like to see the water you walk on.
Why depend on popularity to make it open source? Shouldn't it be the other way? He light actually get more contributors by making it open source right now instead of waiting for something that might never come.
