Isn't the whole idea behind AGPL that you're allowed to fork and modify it as long as you provide your modified source code to the users?

IPv4 is not holding back home setups, nobody cares about NAT at home. The place where it hurts is small VPSs, from AWS to mom and pop hosters, the cost of addresses is becoming significant compared to low cost VPSs.

There is a real safety issue with plug-in solar panels and plug-in batteries. Things go wrong if other loads are on the same circuit, which is almost unavoidable with a plug-in system. Consider a circuit in a home, designed to carry 16A lik

EV chargers take a different approach. There is no power on the connector while you're plugging it in. It then locks in place before the contactor closes and power is delivered. Unplugging is the same, power is removed before the plug

The charging infrastructure has changed a lot in the last few years. You can very comfortably travel all the way across Europe without even thinking about where to charge. There is a Tesla Supercharger every 50 miles or even less all the wa

I did this for Forgejo, now adding Gitlab and planning Github as well: https://github.com/smithy-ai/smithy-ai It runs Claude in docker containers, listens for webhooks to see comments and CI status.

Cool! I wrote a significant part of the graphical UI for rockbox about 20 years ago. It was text based before that. Needed it for my back then very fancy harddisk based mp3 player. The project was great to work with, Daniel Stenberg (also t

An acquisition like that would have non-compete restrictions. And often the previous owners don't get 100% cash, they would receive part as shares in the new holding company.

Technically true, but RoE expectations from a PE firm are typically a lot higher than from the original owners of a small business. And the LBO model is much less resilient to economic headwind. Let's assume a 25% EBITDA margin busines

While this sounds like it allowed remote voting, it's interesting that some places (e.g. The Netherlands) went back to 100% paper instead of voting machines. That causes counting to take quite some time, with estimates/interim cou

CRM datasets don't really get that big. So DuckDB sounds like a great choice.

$15k for only 13 kWh is not a sustainable price point. A high quality Victron inverter set for 3 phase is around $2500, that's not a budget option but one of the better inverter brands you can find. Add $2000 for a 16 kWh battery and y

But the companies selling them chips are also their shareholders, so those are on the hook as well.

You would hope that an EV reporting x kWh/hour considers the charge curve when charging for an hour. Then it makes sense to report that instead of the peak kW rating. But reality is that they just report the peak kW rating as the &quot

That could also mean captive customers + maximum extraction in the legacy phase of the product portfolio. Doesn't necessarily mean users are happy with the product and customers aren't looking for alternatives.

I find it amazing that anyone still uses Salesforce. They were innovating in their early days, but it has been legacy bloatware with more marketing than engineers for a decade now.

I thought they were interconnecting all those ideal-like systems from different countries and then rebranding to Wero? So the tech may be different per area but they all interconnect and the UX is the same. But maybe I misunderstood and oth

Expect Musk to throw a tantrum and demand to get 80% of his payoff anyway or he'll leave. And nobody should be surprised if the board gives in, they've been selected to be on Musks side no matter what.

This is a big topic in aviation. But the example you link to is about ACARS messages which are sent to the ground via data link, not visible to the crew. The ECAM system is what displays issues to the crew. There is a lot of logic there on
