Okay developers can't do anything now.

Sue is probably not the better description of the thoughts I had. Let's say, can't the developers do anything in an act of retaliation? Given that so much work came from the community.

> ... advertised

Yeah. Wrong choice of word. Using one kind of license to get the attention of public is in spirit akin to advertising(that was the line of thought I had). I am not doubling down on stupified things I said, I am tryina explain what I thought.

So... if I can re-ask the question , I take my dumb-comment yesterday back and ask it like this :

can't the community do in act of retaliation against these acts ?

can't we mandate community approval for license updates when the community is also participating in contribution and popularizing its usage

I do not have anything against Redis. What is going to happen to the future of FOSS and software in general , if once open(open source and Libre) projects end up walled or proprietary etc.

Stupid ask:

Can't developers sue this company for false advertising ?

This started off as one thing and ended up being something else. They probably at any point did not hint about changing license in the future, just guessing.

For any open projects , couldn't dev. request for keeping the license as is or Free(or whatever relevant) before letting their code merged.

This may sound illogical to someone who is a domain expert, but this is just a dumb question from someone who has almost 0 clue on this topic.

I disagree with Math had to be learned when you are young.

Intelligent people will end up learning something profound when they are young.If they find something else interesting enough at a later stage in their life, they apply some transformation learning.

Leibniz did not start his training in Math until he was ~30

> Thus Leibniz went to Paris in 1672. Soon after arriving, he met Dutch physicist and mathematician Christiaan Huygens and realised that his own knowledge of mathematics and physics was patchy. With Huygens as his mentor, he began a program of self-study that soon pushed him to making major contributions to both subjects, including discovering his version of the differential and integral calculus.

This is an interesting comment. Could you link those comments if you have them saved somewhere.

Thank you.

I went back and read the italicized lines only. I got the joke now.

same here LOL.

Here's my trippy understanding.

> I had had enough of the thing. I want to hear no more about it. Let them come on. Let them invade Earth. I don’t want to get mixed up in it.

> I have absolutely no stomach for it.

The author is finally mutated and someone took his stomach as well ?

He did not realize it because, someone stole his brain ?

> worship "India's language is Hindi",

I think , what he is trying to say is, ascribing a single language to a diversified nation like India is not a good idea.

> Why do you believe that north indian language and religion are nonsense?

Free speech.LoL.I am not saying OP is right or is following HN etiquette, but that it is OP's opinion(not fact, not truth).

> I don't think North Indians are backward relative to South Indians. Although they are relatively poor.

Bihar is the most uneducated state in the country. Kolkata is a terrible to place to conduct business of any kind. Although , this is not representative of the North.

But what is North anyway ? Should we consider anything above Madhya Pradesh North ? Does Gujarat count as North ? Does Mizoram count as North ?

> Is this something you know, or is it something you think is true?

Totally in my head. No data to back up.

My aha moment :

> Part of this is financial.

Consider doctors, who are extremely busy in their profession. Although, doctors do not spend enough time talking to their children, somehow they turn out to be alright.

I am thinking, are children sensing their economic backlog way to sooner than we know ?
