I mean, sure, but there's no particular reason to believe that Infisical will keep its current licensing if and when when financial times get tough for them. When you rely on OSS products that are developed almost exclusively by compan

This is entirely a self-own, because he was trying to intimidate a witness. If SBF had done the "normal" white collar criminal move of hiring a really expensive team of lawyers and doing what they told him, he'd be free as

This is my favorite tool in this space as well. It's very simple and p2p. I don't know why it seems to be so far below the radar in these comparisons / conversations. Perhaps the Tailscale marketing is just that good :)

Yeah, it's not binary. BSL is worse than open source, but it sucks way less than fully closed products. I'll at least consider using it. My big gripe with the BSL is when companies switch from a proper open source license to t

Compared to OsmAnd, Organic Maps is quite basic. The advantage is that it does have a very streamlined UI, so if you just want to get to a map and navigate it's far more straightforward. You really need to spend some time to understand

You might also consider the human curated alternative, the Wikipedia "Current events" portal [0]. It does not include very many topics, but it hits all of the big stories that are likely to be significant after the dust has settle

I honestly feel like my small car is really the advantage. It's so much more nimble that I can easily evade road hazards and stop exceptionally quickly. It would fare worse in a collision, but maybe I'm also less likely to get cau

We own a Volkswagen GTI. I don't know if it's fast enough for you, but it's no slouch and it's a totally normal sized car.

You really don't need an spa for this. You can do the same ux with Turbo from Hotwire (and before it Turbolinks) and traditional server side rendering.

To back this up, I used to go to the dentist regularly as a child. I got the regular cleaning and such until I went to college and had to pay for things myself. I didn't have any dental insurance so I stopped going around then. Maybe 1

Certainly, there are many incredibly talented and passionate programmers there. These people want to make interesting things and many of them want to share them with the world. The company has gotten to where it is by being an exciting plac

Listen, you can (and should!) use whatever license you feel works best for your business. But the trickery around calling the BSL "Open Source" (now "open-source") in the blog post is a very bad look. The BSL license - i

The fact that Meta is able to lie and call their restrictive licensing open source is nearly as misleading as "OpenAI." We need to do better than to repeat these claims uncritically. The weight licenses are not "open source&q

Sure, this is what it looks like if/when we've fully lost the fight. Those of us who currently recommend Firefox are hoping that there's still enough time to do something about this. Maybe it's already too late, but you

All of these wannabe startups just wrapping ChatGPT or other models and trying to resell them are pretty laughable. Chatbots are going to become "features" in more tangible products, not "products" themselves that people

Except that there's basically no way to know which products are going to be more reliable! You can use price as some kind of signal, but it's only loosely correlated. Manufacturers use a dizzying array of different model numbers t

Unlike browsers, which can (for now) still be swapped out solely on individual preference, the network effects are real for messaging platforms. This means that currently Signal is more broadly useful than Matrix clients. Hopefully this can

This stood out at me as well. It's obvious that the author is very considerate and was hoping for the best, and even after being let go she has a nuanced and (to my reading) more positive stance on the company than I would expect. And

What's the point of basing it on Chromium when Chrome exists? Brave seems intent on actively trying to sabotage the Google ad distribution business model and inject their own ad distribution system. It's kind of weird to base thei

Is Musk a hypocrite? Sure, anybody who's been paying attention already knows this. It's completely unsurprising that he would grant himself special powers on the platform he owns. Whether he actually did in this case hardly matter

The best time to switch back to Firefox was 10 years ago. The second best time is today. Maybe it's too late, maybe it's not, but it's literally the only option we have if we want an open web. At this point, anybody who runs

Of course, on that platform they can just say "install our app and come back" for the same basic effect.
