I didn't even know about SourceHut. It seems like the weird cousin of Github. But I'm also a Github fan boiiiii.

So, I'm curious, what's the big thing about Zrythm? Is it that you can automate much more params than on Logic/Ableton? The fact that it's open-source is pretty cool though.

Wow! Incredible.

That is kind of mind-blowing. The landing page and the video using Windows XP makes it look unappealing though I'd still use 10/10

That's cool, but I was hoping for a tool that generates a nifty little text file like that. It might be a cool idea to automate the process.

That's super useful. Every time I'm setting up subdomains or playing with Cloudflare settings, I'm always so confused. This will help when I need to use dig.

Yep. I used to be an Instagram user. Stopped cold turkey when they removed chronological feed.

That cool, I remember how RSS feeds were the shit even just a decade ago. Then they slowly faded away from mainstream adoption. Once Mail.app removed RSS, it seems like RSS were no longer part of my life lol These days, I love Twitter and R

Yeah that would be facinating

Haha well that just blew my mind xD I personally don't really care about achieving anything. Why is this such a big thing? Why would we want to achieve all the APKs? There are too many of them lol History? Memories? Who cares, we'

Do you mean locked-down software? Do you have examples of hardware that the next generation might not be able to boot 30 years later? I'm curious and ignorant :D

I love the spirit, but is there any *successful* precedence? Sure, everything is now open-sourced, but setting up the kind of infrastructure that is necessitated to keep the thing up and running seems non-trivial.

Why would you assume that companies following suit would make symbolic gestures rather than a culture/values shift? This is a nuanced subject - companies won't just all start donation to OSS because of Sentry. But more and more co

Sure there are some details to iron out lol. But the point is that using a long-term approach - you will be able to pay people orders of magnitude more than if you take the short-term approach. Long-term becomes the short-term in the future

I know right! However, I do feel like individuals also have their part to play in this situation. If a business has to dedicate 1% of revenues to OSS, why shouldn't the individual, who is also an indirect beneficiary?

Then the value received for Sentry most likely also pale in comparison. I've never heard of Nim before this comment. It looks pretty cool, especially the self-contained aspect. Do you know of any big company using Nim in production?

I think they unexpectedly benefited from the shenanigans (PR wise)

If all software businesses could give away 1% to OSS, what a difference it would make! It's only a philanthropic decision because not all businesses wish to do the same. Because all are benefiting from the philanthropic efforts of a fe

Right. Interesting perspective. Why not invest the money and make it grow instead? Long term vs short term

What's his business?

I guess my subconscious did. It's easy to say that I didn't read it that way after the fact lol But after reading this comment and the title again, I see how that could be a possibility.

Meaning that it would be obvious what that said maintainer did to claim the reward lol

> It seems like it would create some bad incentives for open source maintainers/submitters - someone submits a PR to fix a bug, gets rejected, maintainer commits a similar bug fix, claims reward. Well that would never work

Who is MarkLTX?

by maximedupre 5y ago
That's a great question and I have some thoughts as an outsider. It's pretty much impossible to reflect/match the value received over time. Think about a SAAS that charges 5$ per month, even though the time it saves you is mo

I guess HN is where the people that care about OSS conglomerate :D

That's an amazing way to step up. It's not even about the amount, since in the grand scheme of things, it's nothing. It's about the leadership they are exercising and the influence it can have on other businesses. Most o

That a great question...never heard of it for OSS
