The documentation AGPL equivalent would simply be that if you provide a modified copy of the docs remotely (eg online), you must still provide the documentation source and all rights to modify & redistribute further. The AGPL just exten

The problem listed in the article is specifically “freedom to copy, modify and redistribute”, not “free to have” O’Reilly would be fine, if they allowed you to modify the book as you please — but they don’t; like licensed software, you’ve o

With google maps at least, there’s been a decent number of sudden UI/UX changes that completely revamp the layout and features (often towards something less useful) — which indicates to me that there’s not that much of a struggle int

I think the ideal is really that a student should be capable of going into the world and picking up a new technology within the same area without too much trouble — I may have used ANTLR for a class, but I should also understand it well eno

Another aspect is that as a codebase develops, memes inevitably appear; patterns and strategies that replicate themselves throughout the codebase. The elegant utility may be difficult to deal with standing alone, but when you see it 2,3,4 d

The simplest argument is that the default is usually... defaulted to. And the default is the redesign -- you have to actively go out of your way to revert to the old design; so the simplest takeaway is that the general public greatly prefer

I would like to confirm, it was just truly awful mixing — the only way the theater was able to get you to vaguely hear the dialog was to have volume loud enough the music physically hurt to listen to; the difference between the preceding tr

In a resource rich world, the trade-able resource will change, to something that is scarce (why would you do work for something next to worthless, due to abundance?). Reputation, artisan skill-based product, mechanically induced scarce reso

Well, it'd stop the vandalism and town theft, the originally defined issue: Free publicity that leads to sign posts being stolen. For a tiny village of 100 people, this is likely a serious hardship. But more notably, it's a way

You're right; it can be shortened to: as a general rule, there are usually shitty jobs that need doing. or alternatively, there are usually more jobs that need doing, than people wanting to do them.

As a general rule, there are usually more shitty jobs that need doing, than people who actively want to do those shitty jobs. In your scheme, you need one person to want to be captain, to support a thousand-crew ship. You'll probably

You seem to have completely missed the point? The alpha, or “strongest, wisest, winner of battles wolf” may exist, but it doesn’t define the pecking order — at least in wild populations. Like human three-generation households, the patriarch

Like piracy, the easiest solution is probably to just sell a copy of the sign in a fashion (obviously) easier than theft. I doubt the thrill of theft is a significant driver of it.

Except that all implementations are subtly and annoyingly different, and while you can transfer your general understanding, you can’t avoid the cheatsheet if you’re using multiple tools. But of course, since this is basically a one-to-one m

Not by accident... Linux, windows and intel have put in a lot of effort to ensure this holds, specifically because binaries are so incredibly fragile — hell, you’d have the same trouble Mac is having now if you tried to swap out to AMD on

I mean, COBOL is in the same boat -- there's too much code written in it to outright kill it. They still update the language standard today (2014). The main migration argument I see is usually along the lines of "50% of all COBOL
