Who wants another Silicon Valley? Their model is foundationally based on “moving fast and breaking things”.
What about focusing on responsible, organic stewardship and community over growth at any cost? If no one’s making any real money, we don’t have to hitch our cart to the capitalist horse which has resulted in our current situation.
I wholeheartedly agree, though I will need to look up the XNU kernel and the relevance of licensing to Elasticsearch and Terraform. I develop and use R packages and am happy to see that the majority (70%) of those packages are GPL. Not core linux infrastructure, but I an at least happy in my small corner of the OSS community.
Thank for the reply!
I definitely understand your preference for copyleft licenses.
This is off-topic but are there any recent media that have strengthened your views for GPL or even AGPL (outside of Stallman) over MIT/ISC?
I have been using Zotero for a while and syncing my library directory with Syncthing, even though they say not to (no problem in 7 years including PhD and job).
If you want something even more minimalist, it is possible with the command line too, , which is the approximate setup I’m currently using in my pharma job.
I don’t support the .NET Framework which is a dependency of most (all?) of the -arr suite. It’s a fairly divisive and niche argument so I didn’t bring it up initially, but I try to reduce my reliance on proprietary software and hardware as much as possible.
Good to know! I’m still at the vim+markdown+LaTeX for equations mode, but other than for math stuff I can’t be bothered for LaTeX. I wish collaborators would be open to LaTeX rather than Google Docs or the highway.
I’m not a big fan of the -arr suite so I use Headphones.
Surely the support for LaTeX is the killer feature with your math class, not emacs vs. vim.
…AppImage? No thanks.
