Pretty sure that none of the Netherlands were created by flooding large depressions in a desert. Quiet the opposite, in fact.

Ah, yes, but what about RFC 5226?

Came here to see if anyone else was thinking of Hayes commands! Agree, those suck too. Might be worth it to keep this thread in mind next time I have to deal with them to remind myself that new shiny things can be even shittier :) While I a

As in: "Will this work?" - "Why don't you try and see?" ? This is perfectly acceptable in my opinion, it's an elliptical form of: "Why don't you try (to do whatever "this" is) and see (if it

Completely agree. I'm fine with a free beer license. The context of the post is that the binary is licensed using an Open Source license which leads to confusion.

You'd think they could have just left that question out of their FAQ and licensed it with a "free-as-in-beer" click-through license.

We must be working in a different world. In all my career I've not once worked with a serious business that did not have a support contract for their database system open source or not. Most of those had escrow agreements for central c

If it wasn't a publicity stunt, it certainly had the effects of one: I've never heard of Datomic before and here they are at the top of hackernews! > And, in practice, it's not that much different for the average user if o

They licensed the binary under Apache. It's a publicity stunt.

Nothing wrong with that at all. But that's not what was said. Answering the question (that you posed to yourself in your own FAQ): "Is it Open Source?" by stating: "we've licensed the binary using an Open Source lic

Yeah, it's a complete bullshit move. Mongoose OS (an embedded iot Plattform not the db) does something similar. It's extremely weasely and doesn't instill trust at all.

Because "Enterprise". Some C-Level read about Cyber in an inflight magazine and decided "The Firewall" needs to be "locked down" to only allow essential traffic. So https it is!

You may be reading too much into this ... it was a joke :) But you've made me curious, what's your workflow like? Do you use a gui git client? For me, the default option provided to me by github is an ssh clone, at least for repos

Not only is this a problem with everyone, it's also one of the "soft" skills you learn to deal with in school. It occurs in professional and social interactions as well and school prepares for dealing with it.

Someone at GH was using Copilot DevOps and prompted "How would you go about compromising the integrity of all open source software?", obviously.

Not much to say about this, but it really brightened my mood! If you're bored, click through to the video of the magician who (re)discovered Gloria Dea by finding a skirt of hers in a second hand store ...

I could conceivably see a use for this in contrainted devices, i.e. embedded with small, low resolution displays. It sees to be missing text rendering entirely, though.

There is a "flagged" link next to it. If enough people press it, [flagged] appears before the title. As to why people press the link: scan through the comments... The consensus seems to consider it fluffy contentless clickbait.

In this particular case, there's just no information to absorb: not only did they not state in what way remote work contributes to bank runs, they didn't even link to the FT article their bot summarized.

Wait what: `parallel` is a Perl script!? [1] I would have thought it's black magic with assembler optimisations for MIPS and special considerations for HP-UX... This is such a lovely and interesting writeup, it's wonderful that pe

I didn't say they should get the benefit of the doubt. It's pretty clear cut, there's little doubt to be had. But we have no idea how they'll remedy the situation, because the situation has, in all likelyhood, not been p

I honestly have no idea. But the title suggests malice on the side of Lego, while it links to a forum discussion with an off the cuff remark that a library is GPL. Nothing about trying to get an unwilling company to comply or similar as I w

Don't go too overboard.. It doesn't look like Lego has even been contacted and asked to remedy the situation. I suggest being allowed to call them just Legos instead of "Lego™ style plastic building blocks" would be app

Well you could just start off by signing your name under the work instead of slapping some anonymous group's badge on your work. In fact, this page seems like exactly the type of underhanded trick an escaped AI bot would play to get mo
