Quote: “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune

People really are afraid? I thought they were just being strategic.
I cut the other way and get cavalier about getting somewhere.
You want kintsugi? Then go break a whole bunch of stuff and get good at fixing it.

Microsoft, opens new tab will sell its chat and video app Teams separately from its Office product globally, the U.S. tech giant said on Monday, six months after it unbundled the two products in Europe in a bid to avert a possible EU antitrust fine. Not all 'return to office' is going smoothly

Good. Having Teams override my Office license was just stupid and eventually ended up with me having to reinstall Office just to get Outlook to work.

This past week, the update was made available to all Windows 11 users via KB5035942 as an optional update. However, several users online are reporting installation issues, and some of the affected who are managing to complete the installation and setup are further experiencing black screen issues on startup. Give it a moment

First, they build programs with open source. Then they build their business with open source. Then they abandon it and cash out. Money makes the source go closed

Last line of article is part of a Stallman quote:
Stallman: ...extracting money from users of a program by restricting their use of it is destructive.
Either I don't fully understand that quote, or it is completely ridiculous.
1) It is a known fact that if you provide your software for free then like 15% of people pay some amount for it (85% or more never pay for it). A developer cannot support herself from the donations even on very popular projects.
2) Also, "restricting their use of it" is actually the definition of every product where anyone gets paid.
For example:
a) Teslas are not free. You are restricted from their use, until you pay for one.
b) Plumbing services are not free. You are restricted from their use, until you pay (or agree to pay) the plumber.
c) Internet service is not free. You are restricted from its use until you pay for it.
d) Software development is not free. You are restricted from having software developed until you pay the software developer.
e) ad infinitum...
3) if something is not of restricted use, then people (consumers) use it freely and no one is paid for the thing, service, etc.
The article also mentions that you can continue to use older versions of the software which fell under the original open source license -- before the company or individual placed it under a new restrictive license.
Also, it is quite likely that the current feeling that software is valueless has been caused by software developers giving everything away.
In summary, I have no idea what that article is talking about.
But, I'm sure someone will explain it to me.

And Stallman himself requires payment for him to give a talk somewhere, thus 'extracting money by restricting his use'
Where I have problems with the way some open source companies are going. They have their software open sourced initially, then once it's become popular (and the bugs get ironed out by the 'many eyes'), they switch to a closed source model. Or at least a supported fork of it is closed source. RedHat, Redis, MySQL, MongoDB, Elastic, etc., etc.

That's 100% AAPL's doing and why I think you should most definitely give them the finger and forget they exist if you are a software developer.

In software development, ensuring uniform coding styles across different editors and IDEs is challenging. Central command has defined indentation to be pi spaces
