"PC" is so meaningless nowadays, I have no idea if you mean your friend didn't try to open it on a Windows computer, or just a non-mobile device.

Plenty of projects are source-available, but not open source, and get tons of issues, and even contributions ( https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension off the top of my head)

I think we should still draw a distinction between what the article author did and what a company like Hashicorp did. Hashicorp prominently displayed that they were committed to open source and that all of their projects would be open sourc

My first thought was, this looks like a type system, except you need to solve it yourself. In Typesecript, naively: const main = <a extends any, b extends any, c extends any>([a_, b_, c_]: [a, b, c, a]) => { type SomeTu

By "component framework" I was honestly thinking of React, Svelte, Vue, Solid, Qwik, and Angular, though I don't actually have experiences withh all of those. I also don't have experience with native webcomponents or HTM

Exactly. Maybe the top-level poster says something like "Oh if you're going to clean it and re-sell it for a profit, I'd rather hold out to see if another coworker actually needs the car, because I also like the warm fuzzy fe

The author doesn't say they prefer derivative works (e.g. works using a library) to be open source, only that they want modifications to the library to be open source

And to do this with a component framework and tailwind you give your <Button> component some props that customize it. With CSS you also have to worry about the cascade way too much, so while you are doing much of the same work with

That's why I suggested LGPL, which allows the software to be used by closed-source or proprietary software, but any changes to the LGPL-ed library must be made available under the same license.

That's exactly what looping refers to. See my other comment for an idea of what these numbers probably look like. The interest rate usually varies based on available liquidity in the pool, so if they were borrowing 292M of stables, the
