Uniquitous@lemmy.oneto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Open Source Is Struggling And It’s Not Big Tech That Is To BlameEnglish1·1 year agoDepends on how hard you scratch! lol
Uniquitous@lemmy.oneto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Open Source Is Struggling And It’s Not Big Tech That Is To BlameEnglish1·1 year agoI put it to you that ideals may constitute a scratchable itch.
Uniquitous@lemmy.oneto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Open Source Is Struggling And It’s Not Big Tech That Is To BlameEnglish1·1 year agoI suppose the thing is, I personally wouldn’t care much if anyone else used it or not, my itch has been scratched. If someone else finds it of use, great! If they need changes, they’ve got the code and can get crackin’ on it themselves. Or, they can pay me to do it if we can agree on a price. Outside of that I have no expectations.
Uniquitous@lemmy.oneto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Open Source Is Struggling And It’s Not Big Tech That Is To BlameEnglish2·2 years agoAs I understood it, one of the foundations of open source development is scratching your own itches, then putting what you made up for grabs in case it scratches someone else’s. There shouldn’t be any expectation of support on your part beyond an email or two. The code’s out there if they want to scratch the itch a different way. It’s kind of a homesteader ethic.

Uniquitous@lemmy.oneto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•I just finished DS9, and I'm sad to know that we'll never get anything like it againEnglish71·2 years agoAssuming it’s official material, contract issues. When Terry left the show, they no longer had likeness rights for her. Hence no Jadzia, not even in the flashbacks in the final ep. The studio either wasn’t willing or just couldn’t afford what she was asking. This is all hearsay but I trust the source (greatest gen podcast).
Uniquitous@lemmy.oneto Technology@beehaw.org•John Riccitiello steps down as CEO of Unity after pricing battleEnglish1·2 years agoI’ve worked in software development for over 20 years, and I stand by what I said. If you’re that tied to a specific implementation, you’ve fucked yourself and you deserve to fail. You can copy most of your resources over, the rest is just a matter of porting your logic.
Uniquitous@lemmy.oneto Technology@beehaw.org•John Riccitiello steps down as CEO of Unity after pricing battleEnglish1·2 years agoYeah, you’re still out in left field. If you’re telling me that your studio can’t handle sub-optimal returns while they swap out one (one!) piece of your development stack, then you have no business being in business.

Uniquitous@lemmy.oneto Technology@beehaw.org•John Riccitiello steps down as CEO of Unity after pricing battleEnglish11·2 years agoThey can finish up those projects and then move on to another engine. We shouldn’t encourage a hostage situation where we have to stay with an untrustworthy platform just because they have a metaphorical gun to some developers’ heads.

Uniquitous@lemmy.oneto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•It's fine until you run out of disk space101·2 years agoGuess they ran everyone out of business that they needed to, so now the premium features get yanked and your choice of alternatives is curtailed. Hooray for enshittification.
Surely you’ve heard about that one time at band camp
AI is actually the king of bullshit. It might give you some code, but will it compile? Probably about as well as an AI art knee would actually bear your weight.

Ooh, yeah, seen that one before. Thanks for the explanation!
