I recently took apart my weed whacker and it used the same ball bearing. I actually learned that these ball bearing casings (?) are super common. I replaced mine with a skate board bearing and it’s as good as new.

You’d think it should be less expensive.
But then you’re not thinking of increasing shareholder value.
How dare you!
The CVS app is my favorite example of this. Their app (at least on Android) is a fucking browser.
Walgreens is an actual app and works the way you expect it to.
There is rarely a situation where you should allow your employer to match the offer you have in hand.
They had the opportunity to do so and then failed to properly retain you. If they realize how much losing you will cost them in productivity, that’s on them, not you.
It’s not personal. It’s literally business.
Sending an email is much much better than sending a literal hand written letter.
I had one opt out where you had to hand write the letter and envelope. Absolutely no way it was enforceable but didn’t want to risk it at the time.
It’s because all those people think that if they work harder, maybe, just maybe, they will be like him.

I don’t think we need more licenses. OSS license proliferation is bad as it is. IMO, people should do their best to stick with the major licenses: GPL, AGPL, MIT, or Creative Commons if it doesn’t fit the above.
The problem with a tax that you’ve proposed is that it would be nearly impossible to enforce. How would you know which companies are pulling your library?
What I’ve been doing is adding the Commons Clause to my license and that I think helps. I don’t write wildly popular software so I don’t really see people donating or asking to purchase a license.
I personally like the Mozilla model where they donate to various open source projects from a common fund. I’d like to see more stuff like that.
It sort of is by license. Not directly but if you’re using one of the more restrictive licenses like GPL 3, it often doesn’t pass legal review due to many of the copy left provisions.
Most companies simply find a similar library that has a more permissive license. A handful will contact the dev and buy a license.
As much as the MIT license has made code more accessible, its permissiveness is the main reason I don’t use it for my own software, unless I really don’t care for it.
Why do you have so many porn tabs open?
3031
Do you mean 2031? Because I’m fairly sure our stupidity will lead to us blowing up the planet way before 3031.
The irony in this quote…
The whole point was to punish sexually promiscuous women.
Every life is sacred is just the spin.
Every unborn life is sacred. Every actual born human can go fuck themselves.
There is a saying in engineering.
Anyone can build a bridge.
It takes an engineer who can build a bridge just strong enough to let cars cross it.
I always liked Barney Stimson’s advice on running a marathon.
Step 1: start running
Step 2: there is no step two
This! Some discomfort is to be expected but it shouldn’t hurt. It should be a good “pain” like it feels good afterwards not a “I really regret all the things” pain.
Hot damn good for you!
Keep us updated! I don’t think lemmy has a remindme bot but I’m saving this comment.
But they can’t just “restore” the property, it was full of mature native trees/plants and for bulldozed.
Oh God…tree law…I never realized how much I missed this.
As much as I’d like to believe that SCOTUS will honor separation between state and federal, I simply do not trust our current justices. I fully expect them to say, “Nah…it’s totes cool for Trump, and only Trump, to commit crimes.”
There was an encryption system a few years ago that offered this out of the box.
I can’t remember the name of it but there was a huge vulnerability and basically made the software unusable.
Crypt box or something like that.
Michael Scott once quoted some guy that said “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.”
You shot your shot. That’s the important thing.
Good for you!
