No, the Community Edition still exists and is available from github. They doesnt want people to use that though, since they want people to use the "free" Ultimate Edition with the colorful subscription link in the face of the user.

I have been using it as a daily driver since before it went beta. After the beta, I have found it quite stable. And recently it have been rock solid. There are still some things missing (like it would be nice with a calendar app, support for firmware upgrades and so on), and some things that are a bit rough. But overall I find it to be a quite good release, and since nothing comes close to their window management (the tiling implementation is really great) it compensates for any minor rough edges you might find.

Well, for specific licenses there are use cases for MPL, which is weak copy left. LGPL is trying to state that statical linking is not allowed, while MPL does. Also, EUPL have simmilar advantages over AGPL, plus that it have very clear defined legal juristiction. So, when it comes to specific licenses there are many reasons to use whatever licence you use. Just make sure you use a license that reflects your expectations.

These are good in a more hands on way, but it is hard there to understand the conceptual difference between MIT and EUPL. So, I deliberately didn't go in to the details, since there are a lot of tools for that. I aimed for a higher level, since I find people often have missed that.

 

It seems people have a hard time understanding the implications of licenses, so I have written a something to help with that.

 

So let me be very clear: if you as a maintainer feel that you control who or what can use your code, YOU ARE WRONG.

 

The phoronix title is a bit click bait, but the LKML thread that is linked in the article is worth reading.

 

It seems like @burntsushi@programming.dev have added some optimizations to the Jiff date time library... so now it should generally be faster than 'chrono' and 'time'. Jiff is quite impressive, the 0.2.1 version number really doen't reflect its quality.

You are confusing Google and Internet.... they are very different things.

What I feel looks interesting with "on rails" is that you get things like database management built in, like setup, upgrades aso. Of course, this also means that it might be difficult to jump off the rails if you need that. And even if I feel like I'm not the target audience, since I prefer to pick and choose smaller libraries, I'm watching this with interest since Ruby on Rails seems to be quite popular.

 

I think I saw this early on, but then forgot about it. Stumbled upon it today, and it actually looks like a cool project. Have anyone any experience of using it for a real or just a toy project?

 

Do you customize your rustfmt, and in what way?

Exactly. I appreciate the "What’s Gleam" section, but I would also like to see a "Why Gleam?" section.
