Yes, I believe the MPL fits the usecase you describe. As far as I understand it, proprietary code using an LGPL licensed library is more or less incompatible with templates in header files (!!!) since there's no way (AFAIK?) to relink
154.
by Reelin 6y ago
I think there's a misunderstanding here. By falling outside the scope of the license, the LGPL isn't viral in the way the GPL is. Code you write can use an LGPL licensed library but be licensed differently itself. However, you (th

Exactly this. I exclusively use search when navigating to any financial website. There's a very large financial incentive to pull off a "typo" fishing domain in those cases as well as a need to regularly check for data breach

Residential power in the US is universally (to the best of my knowledge) three pole single phase 60 Hz 240V. The (common) wall outlets are certainly 120V, but large appliances are 240V. (A typical electric dryer is ~5kW at just over 20A.) A

I'm not sure where you got that idea? Radiant and induction cooktops are by far the most common here in my experience. Cleaning melted plastic off of the vast majority of surfaces, including glass, is hardly easy.

This is just silly. What concurrency model doesn't "fight for resources and introduce bugs"? Threads (and pointers, which you compared them to) are the abstraction at the hardware level - everything else has to be built on to

I feel like much of your comment can be reduced to focusing on the underlying concepts instead of the various (perpetually outdated) APIs. An API is just a means to an end that could (and probably will) change tomorrow. > HSV color? Simi

Memex ( https://github.com/WorldBrain/Memex/ ) provides for searching your history and bookmarks. That might help alleviate the need to maintain sets of tabs. The Vimium extension for Firefox also happens to provide

In Firefox, the Vimium extension provides basic filtering functionality. No idea how well it would scale to 1600 tabs though.

Apple would presumably be required to prevent such workarounds to the best of their ability if the ban came to pass. (I'm honestly surprised to hear that China hasn't forced Apple on the issue.)

On the contrary, I highly value civil liberties but am perfectly happy with the government acting aggressively to protect national security. It's literally in my best interests! Consider that (at an extreme) using the military to repel

Yes. Why would a government (any government) not have the ability to make more or less arbitrary mandates in the interest of national security? It's arguably one of the primary purposes of having a government in the first place. That s

Earlier you said the max file TTL is 1 day. That's brief enough that it seems the only meaningful action you could take much of the time would be to log the incident and report it to the proper authorities. Between the short TTL and E2

This has always bugged me as well. I've generally solved this by wrapping things in a struct. Type checking will use the (incompatible) wrappers and a modern compiler should optimize them away. To avoid strict aliasing violations when

Isn't much of the undefined behavior in C that people love to complain about intentionally left in the standard for the purpose of optimization? Similarly, bounds checks are necessary in insecure contexts (ie most places) but you proba

I don't think a compatibility layer implemented in software is the same as a driver implemented by the vendor that interacts directly with the hardware.

Approximately, a business that's open to the public is considered to be a public space, even if it's on private property. A restaurant dining room is public, but the kitchen would be private (IIUC). A private club (ie you register
