Right. Some of that "goog" code looks decent enough. I wouldn't remove it either simply because it was "archived". Maybe vendor the useful stuff back into the implementation and remove all the "goog"?
Typical "corporate pricing"--they offer a really high price they'll expect you'll negotiate downwards to something reasonable. The Sourcehut negotiators probably never dealt with this kind of "sales model" before.
That said, what will happen when more companies publish their experiences with "enterprise sales"? There's an article from HEY[1] about how broken the sales process is. To get a quote, you normally have to endure 2 or 3 zoom calls before the price is unveiled.
There's probably room for an innovator to fix all of this.
Thanks for nitpicking, but according to wikipedia it is the largest[1]. Regardless, the idea that Berlin is a haven for folks that don't care about their career is a little bizarre to imagine.
The author of this article probably hasn't traveled to many places before.
> Could Berlin's values of privacy and freedom from photography be eroded by the increasing pressure in other cities for professionals to have an active online presence, I wondered?
Berlin professionals have the same pressure of those in other cities. After all, Berlin is the largest city in Europe, the capital of the largest economy in Europe, and also "Europe's tech capital".
> Indeed, according to Masur, privacy concerns within Germany are getting more in line with other countries.
What other countries? In the Islamic world, taking photographs of people without consent is considered "spying"[1](Sauidi Arabia bans cell phone cameras). That's 1/3 of the world's population, but pick another place at random and snapping pictures without consent is likely to attract the police, the military, or another armed person demanding your photos be deleted.
This sounds like a terrible way to run a lisp emulator. One shell command after another which assume one has the apt(1) package manager available on their system.
Maybe the title of the article is poorly done.
The easiest way to run a lisp machine is just to start emacs (there are ports for various operating systems) or try something like racket where you have a REPL with graphics and other goodies installed.
I know HN loves lisp, but putting this article on the front page is a good way to deter lisp adoption.
Let's ignore the technicalities completely. Here's a government providing a detailed look into their engineering practices, complete with graphs and configuration snippets. How many governments manage to publish such a thing?
Check the direction of the trade winds[1]. A Portuguese sailor can easily reach the Caribbean by doing nothing except raising sail. A Chinese sailor ends up in frozen waters.
There's been a lot of consolidation in this space. The remaining operators provide a terrible user experience and are tailored for the mass marketer email campaigners. The crackdown on "spam senders" will only make this worse.
Why does a side project need a bunch of legal documentation? Actual harm must be shown before you'll find yourself in any trouble. Having a shiny cookie policy isn't really going to help you.
