MIT gives YOU more freedom
After years of debate about licenses for my own software (that only I use…), my philosophy has been boiled down to this: MIT for libraries. GPL for programs.
This way, other developers can freely use your library, and your program remains free.
Hey, everyone! Get in here! We’re building a bikeshed!
Same with Python. I use a combination of the platformdirs and xdg libraries.
XDG gang, rise up!
Also, I know that this community and dot-files in general are Unix based, but this holds true for Windows development as well. You should be putting app files in the users’ APPDATA% directory, not their user folder. It’s probably even more important since Windows doesn’t autohide dot files.
The links from that post and top comment point out that that initiative was dropped. It got mired down in bikeshedding from hundreds of opinions and SO eventually just said, “Fuck it.”
The MIT announcement thread was edited with the cancellation announcment:
Update: January 15, 2016
Thank you for your patience and feedback. The changes proposed here have been delayed indefinitely - we’ll be back later to open some more discussions.
The top comment from your link points out the current license:
TL;DR: Source code on SO is still licensed under CC-BY-SA.
And CC BY-SA is the only license listed on the official help page.
- Content contributed before 2011-04-08 (UTC) is distributed under the terms of CC BY-SA 2.5.
- Content contributed from 2011-04-08 up to but not including 2018-05-02 (UTC) is distributed under the terms of CC BY-SA 3.0.
- Content contributed on or after 2018-05-02 (UTC) is distributed under the terms of CC BY-SA 4.0.
You’re supposed to do that anyway. Code on SO is licensed as CC BY-SA, which requires attribution.
Communism =/= leftism. It’s an extreme form of socialism.
My biggest problem isn’t even the communist ideals. Have your ideas, that’s fine. I don’t care.
My problem is the amount of people coming into post comments attacking American Imperialism® on posts that aren’t even related to communist ideals or, sometimes, that don’t even mention America. It gets tiring reading how much America sucks when that’s not even the point of the post.
Where do they claim it was theirs? macOS is FreeBSD at its core, but Apple has built a lot of shit on top of it. It’s absolutely not FreeBSD with a name change.
Good for you. My oldest backlog task is from 2012. And that was imported from the previous ticketing system (AKA an Excel Sheet).
I was curious too, so I looked into their Github issues. Apparently, SQLite doesn’t play well with k8s due to the distributed/networked nature of the environment. According to comments in the pull request, that seems to be the main driver. And apparently, Radarr already has a Postgres option.
Though, there are requests going back to 2017 to support it…just because, I guess? That person seems to just want all their data in one DB for some reason.
“What did that code look like two minutes ago?”
“Oh, ok.”
I agree with Proxmox. I know it’s 10 years old, but it seems a waste to use a 10 core, 64GB machine as a firewall.
Actually…put Proxmox on it and put the firewall in a LXC container.
404 should be John Travolta
Apple Kills Its Plan to Scan Your Photos for CSAM
That headline literally says they’re not doing that. It was a well-meaning initiative that they rightfully backed down on when called out.
I am one of the first to typically assume malice or profit when a company does something, but I really think Apple was trying to do something good for society in a way that is otherwise as privacy-focused as they could be. They just didn’t stop to consider whether or not they should be proactive in legal matters, and when they got reamed by privacy advocates, they decided not to go forward with it.
I store them in Dropbox and symlink them to their correct location.
I do that instead of the standard Git method because it means I don’t have to worry about remembering to sync each computer. Everything syncs immediately.
OCD or not, that would drive me nuts. The main point of a standard pattern is so you know the number at a glance. You don’t have to count all the pips, you just have to see what pattern they’re in.
What your talking about is called a clipboard manager, and there are tons of them out there. All with varying features.
