It's what you've stated but also there's an ethical side to it. Many founders want to give the option for competent users to self-host, only way to do that is open up the source code. They could go completely down the open so

Based on my experience of consulting with public sector, most projects “fail” in one way or another. Gov departments are notorious for not giving correct requirements, changing requirements or swamping the project in bureaucracy. If we said

E-ink is a real missed opportunity for smart homes. This is just a hunch but I suspect there is a niche in the smart home market for people that want their homes to be "informative" but not "smart". An example: A voice-e

I think this hits the nail on the end. No matter what way you cut it the will of the parent is subjected on the child. In my opinion that’s how it should be. The decisive factor is what the focus of the parents will is. Is it personal glory

Answer this, how does sending your child to public school benefit others? It’s pretty clear schools do not work at scale. Focusing on small cooperatives where teachers, students and parents are valued is the way forward.
