Verisign is adding $0.62, while Namecheap is increasing their cut by $0.68. They're passing it through by 209%, not 100%.

Both of the links you share contradict your statement. ARC isn't scheme, and the hacker news link you posted as a source doesn't mention scheme either.

Does anyone actually use Scheme for real projects? The only places I've ever seen it used have been in classrooms.

You're missing the point- the OpenTF group wants to mend the schism if possible, by getting Hashicorp to change their licensing back. If they immediately fork then that's not likely to happen, so they're attempting this first

I can understand the miscommunication in the first post, but I clarified in a direct comment to you what I meant. I was even comparing it to Terratest, which is not used for testing terraform core. At this point you're just being bel

Sorry, this may be a miscommunication. Terraform itself has a test suite, yeah, but it doesn't have a testing framework that users of the language can use to test their own code. To make a python metaphor, if cpython had a testing suit

He doesn't work at Hashicorp anymore, and even quit the board. Since the company is public he could have just completely cashed out at this point (and I wouldn't blame him for it).

The worst part is they did create a viable business model. They were profitable when they had their IPO. They then pretended that the IPO was just another Series X investment, blew all the money, and went negative on their cashflow. Hashico

Hashicorp left the provider frameworks under the original licenses, probably because they don't want to scare provider developers off. So for now both Terraform and a potential fork can continue sharing the same providers without issue

I really appreciate that, and I do think it's right of you to at least make the attempt. That being said, I don't expect this attempt to work and I fully believe that a fork is going to be inevitable. I also think a fork is an ama

These people have seriously contributed back to the Terraform community. Terraform doesn't have a test suite- Grunt made Terratest, as well as many other tools. These people have seriously contributed back to the ecosystem, in many way

It's really weird to me how "exploitation" and "SaaSification" are brought up in defense of companies choosing licenses that exploit their communities so their own SaaS can have a monopoly for that project.

Frameworks do not necessarily mean license changes or requirements. Look at OpenSSL. They went for years with basically no money, had horrible security issues, and then got a ton of sponsorships because companies realized they relied on it.

There are open source licenses, such as the AGPL, which explicitly require that those changes being contributed back. There are licenses which require attribution. The fact the companies switching to the BS License is a sign that those aren

Plausible is amazing, I love it. I moved off of another platform that started as open source and then went closed source, but Plausible ended up being a better platform over all anyways.

Just because they have the legal right doesn't make it ethical, and even if someone makes the argument that it is ethical that doesn't change that it's a bit of a slap in the face to the open source community. You're all

Scalr and Spacelift come to mind. Spacelift is a significantly better product than Terraform Cloud, and since they apparently can't compete on quality they're going with this instead.

I have personally spent hours trying to find people beds at the homeless shelters in SF- they are at full capacity. If someone refuses a bed someone else steps up to take it. This idea that there are a bunch of empty shelter beds is pure

You're missing the point. The reason they don't give things up is because the shelter is temporary, but they results of using it aren't. If you tell a homeless person you're going to shelter them for six months, the vast

I honestly don't believe that is anywhere near the common reason. I know this is anecodotal (as is your comment), but I've spent a lot of time around the homeless population. I was "housed homeless" for a year, and my si

This number is horribly bias and misleading. They are using the money that goes towards all homeless programs- including programs that keep people housed- but then dividing it by the number of shelter beds, despite the fact that the vast ma

And you think this problem is somehow restricted to just NYC? The prices in the bay area for uber/lyft are about the same.
