Then dual licensing is not possible? It's a simple IF statement. IF commercial then $cash, else $mit. A dual license doesn't mean they can choose if they already are what they are, ie for profit.

You could say that about any license. Every license has stipulations, including those not for profit. Otherwise it would be public domain. One could arguing enforcing open source is harder to afford specifically because you aren't maki

Conflict may have been too strong a word. In argument maybe? From what I understood, GNU was/is kind of a big deal, and OSI didn't have a monopoly on OS, or otherwise they would have on GNU also. > if a project is licensed unde

> According to the prevailing definitions, prohibiting commercial use is not Open Source. Can you combine that with what you said earlier? I read it as a counter argument to dual licensing. Now you seem to be perfectly OK with it.

> Yes Except GNU and OSI are in conflict? > No Then you can have an OS license with a business license or even an FU license (arbitrarily horrible license).

You're not prohibiting anyone from using it. Nothing is stopping a business from using it, especially if the price is fair. So does OSI have complete authority over the definition of OS? Does their definition restrict dual licenses? Ha

It really isn't about enforcing it. How do you enforce that is the question that even GPL struggles with. It's a simple value proposition and a simple premise. If you're commercial, we're commercial. If you're not m

Of what? the GPL? Software can be MIT + commercial. That's still perfectly open source.

A few modern youtubers have great Spore videos. My 7yo wanted to play and I assumed it was going to be in the app store, just to find out it was a Windows game from 2012. An easy install through Steam though.

What happened to dual licenses? Free for private and non-commercial use. $$ per seat for commercial use. This can still be completely open source.

The author essentially goes on to abstract away each thing included in a circle. Take a car or a computer or even an essay. It does take knowing what makes the thing up, which is the exercise. When done completely, unabstraction leaves you

I would love to have a twitter bird. Only because it's the carcass of its older self. Really wish they update the logo soon. To imagine this is even news. Most companies get rid of their stuff all the time in many different ways, mostl

But it's all abstractions. The only issue is who gets to decide. The programmer controls the abstractions they're allowed to code, but everything predefined that they are forced to work with are "specs" that someone else

The problem with artificial writing is writing alone doesn't accomplish much. Art is the expression itself, so AI art is the final product. But with writing, the goal is to often communicate something novel, in which case the AI wouldn

To me this is just a matter of scope for the abstraction you named "problem", because ultimately we can only solve one problem at a time, and everything we achieve is achieved incrementally. Whether you explicitly break up your &q
