For once, someone got it right and didn't claim with bold, uppercase letters that it's an Open Source project, like it usually happens with a lot of HN entries of that topic. Lately, the relicense of some Sentry product to a non-O

I'm surprised they went for the SSPL, though. Its terms are too vague about the distinction between hosting and just using , and also at the time I read this entry in HN about how it might actually be unenforceable anyway: https:&#

Didn't seem to be such of a silver bullet for MongoDB, which used AGPL and still were forced to abandon it in favor of an even stronger version made by themselves (the SSPL, which is an AGPL on steroids). I'm not sure if there are

What CLAs do, is explained in the first half of the sentence. What it means in practice (in the context of talking about relicensing) is hence what " practically speaking " means. Anyway I've edited it to avoid using the word

I've lately been playing Redout ( Redout: Enhanced Edition ) on the Steam Deck, and it is a quite fun game in the spirit of the old Wipeout game. Consider giving it a go if you are into that sort of speed-over-everything-else racing ga

The rule is simple: If you want to relicense a project, then you need approval from all the individual copyright holders. It does not matter if you are relicensing between permissive OSS licenses such as, for example, from Apache 2.0 to MIT

The huge difference is where the copyright of the code lays. OSS projects that require contributors to assign their copyright away, should not be trusted, and should not receive goodwill contributions to begin with. Otherwise, what today is

To play Devil's advocate, while I agree with you, in reality it happened multiple times (last one, 2 minutes ago while writing a comment in other HN entry) where I am writing the response but then would like to have a peek at the chain

I think the component that prevents that packet from crossing from WAN to LAN is, precisely, the NAT. Or more specifically, that no dynamic NAT mapping has been established previosuly, from an outbound transmission from 192.168.1.2 towards

I do remember those times :-) and I guess back then, memory was a free-for-all wild west of direct access and no protections whatsoever... Today, you're using a much more developed 64-bit architecture. On that, an OS that attempts to p

Yeah, they usually do their own thing. Not only in following specs, though. Like how if you use self-signed cert for HTTPS (e.g. for local development and tests while playing with WebRTC), all browsers will show a Warning page with an escap

Not sure if your link is really a viable alternative. The first line of the Readme says it is for Windows 10: > Optimize-Offline is a Windows Image (WIM/ESD) optimization module designed for Windows 10 versions 1803-to-2009 64-bit

Do you mean that this issue report can now be considered as resolved? https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/140786115 I'd love to update my notes if that's the case.

That's interesting, thanks. Have you used it? Do you know if it's only the GUI for ACC (i.e. that ACC must be installed independently), or if it already embeds ACC?
