We call those people PowerPoint architects. They haven't coded or built anything for so long, if ever, that they wouldn't even how to, by this point. The only tool they know is PowerPoint and their slides have more boxes with word

It's a tiny market, but, I promise, it has growth potential.

Qt didn't start out as GPL. It's even in the article.

That's just the Kai Hansen doing his thing. He's also been quite active as a producer.

Highly interesting read! Have you considered adding a highscore board or something similar? Athletes can add a profile, then post an image proof that they've lifted certain stones. It won't be fool proof, but could further increas

That sounds a bit hyperbolic. Norway is a long country with multiple climate zones. Average temperature in March in Longyearbyen [1] is 3.4 F. Meanwhile, Embarrass, the coldest city in Minnesota according to Google, averages 8.3 F in Januar

Their advantage is that they have the largest desktop user base. Access to those users or being the de-facto default desktop base, can be turned into income.

They need to practice more. Ling-Ling is playing 40 hours a day.

We use azure ad for authn to our github organization. That also covers github pages generated from those repos.

I'm generalizing, but most Norwegians wouldn't find pagan or heathen derogatory. During the 90s, it was embraced as a common denomer for the anti-religious movement.

No, this is conflation everybody is having. You are free to do with the received source as you like, maintaining your rights granted by the GPL. But the GPL does not compel RedHat to keep you as a customer. There are two separate legal inst

IBM can't "kill" Fedora. All the specs files, the assembly mechanisms for the distribution is available online. The community can (and has) forked fedora and keep it going under a new name, if they wanted to. But this is all

Ooof, that's a lot of shade to throw on aspartame.

Since we're generalizing: most devs aren't great at writing documentation either. Technical writing is a field of its own and it's important to recognize that. We could ever be so lucky if such writers were as attracted to fr

Redhat debranded RHEL for CentOS. It was one of the things CentOS compalined about, so RedHat made it easier for them. Maybe it saved RedHat money overall by avoiding trademark protection (IANAL).

Hard to judge if that covers just makefiles or if it also covers rpms. Guess it makes sense they should share the scripts required to rebuild the binary as it's delivered by them

They could also release just application source code and not the spec files for building the package. It's the spec files and the patches that's central in this conflict, not the actual source code, but people keep conflating the

Lets not forget canonical shipped pulseaudio in Ubuntu before it was really ready. The devs got a lot of hate for something they didn't much control.

I'd be suprised if OpenShift wasn't making copious amounts of money for redhat.

RedHat creates and drives development of many OSS projects. FreeIPA, strimzi, systemd are some examples. Anybody can use these projects without using the RedHat labeled version. But none of this projects would be well maintained without Red

That's an absurd generalization. They contribute upstream. They aren't forking every project and keeping changes for themselves and customers. Just the sheer amount of development and testing RedHat puts into the kernel alone, fun

I dont want to shill for redhat, but stating they are taking and not contributing is quite unfair. At least in the context of open source.

You can check out htmxhtmx and alpinejs, those complement django quite nicely and you dont have to go down the javascript rabithole to get some dynamicism.

I never really thought about it, but your description made me fear some well-meaning persons will "revamp" HN and turn it into something "fresh and modern" and introduce new features that allow us to "engage".
