It’s already been months in this case. And, court cases often take many years to resolve. The issue is more that the court is slow and expensive even in the best case.

Source available is not open source. Don’t try to redefine what open source means. It’s so insulting to volunteers hard work.

I think it is unwise for a maintainer to accept anonymous contributions.

I think the situation your missing is when the employer has a much much more aggressive stance to IP. Even if you are 100% confident that your contribution doesn't violate your employer's IP, they can still sue and ruin your life.

I feel like it'd be kinda a jerk move to contribute anonymously when you know that might create an IP issue for an open source project. Even if the code truly has no IP issue, legal attention from an litigious company would likely be d

I have some patches saved up coming your way once I leave my current employer, who doesn't allow external open source contributions. Though that is not for a few years probably. Love the libraries BTW. Thank you for all of your hard wo

I think most non-lawyers agree with this and consider it common sense. But, the US legal system explicitly disagrees.[0] My understanding is that it does affect the damages though, meaning the damages scale down based on the level of pre-ex

I would buy one of these if they sold a kit. Although I have the skill-set to assemble an working copy of folk myself without the kit, it's something that I just haven't prioritized doing. And a kit is probably enough for me to ge

The vast majority of people talking about how big university endowments are don't care what the rules are on it. It's not that people don't know how endowments work; they just find the rules to be bullshit to justify universi

I don't think it's that surprising that the Open Group would cut corners certifying Unix compatibility.

I don't have experience with .NET. So that's nice to hear you've got a reliable setup. But, this has generally not been my experience with Microsoft. There's tons of old programs from the Windows 95-XP era that I haven&#

For the employer, the question is self fulfilling. Either way they get what they want. Even if someone knows enough to lie, the lie betrays that they’re desperate enough to be unable to resist anything management demands.

> regulation demanding unattainably high levels of care IMO this is the missing gap in a lot of the US economy. Cars, housing, medical care. Kei trucks, SRO apartments, and so many more similar solutions are functionally illegal.

I definitely appreciate the perspective of benefit of the doubt and seeking understanding. But I really can't figure out what he was getting at. This was in 2018, before GLP-1's, and I wasn't looking for medication.

Yes, I understand because I also couldn't believe how any doctor could think that. But no, I had no active medical conditions and this was the first time I saw this doctor. So, he didn't really know my medical history anyways. The
