> I sometimes want to share political news, but it's not tagged with "us pol"

Yes! I've wanted to do exactly that quite a lot recently

@irene Had to double check which UW

@irene lol, no worries! It wasn't a critique, I just lived in Madison for ten years, so UW to me is the University of Wisconsin.

Bumped my @LWN subscription level to "Project Leader"

@inthehands @mcc Now I want to go around leaving math graffiti asserting unproven conjectures...

@lanodan Keeping the ed(1) skills up is always good :)

Drove by this morning and had to take a picture

I got rug to do something with this corner of the room, and naturally Gracie assumed it was her new play mat.

How long have you not been able to search code on GitHub without being logged in? That feels gross for a code-sharing site...

@vwbusguy @mattdm I pushed back against the CentOS/RHEL source stuff being a *good* example for other to emulate.

I wouldn't argue that what they did is similar to the other "business license" examples you mentioned, because it's not. RH didn't change any licenses.

No one did anything legally "wrong," and what the others did is worse than what RH did, but, IMO, they all acted in bad faith w.r.t. the FLOSS community.

@mattdm Please do not trot out Red Hat's very narrow interpretation of the GPL as an example to follow.

@mattdm
> it's better than the CLA squeeze.

That's a very low bar to clear.

@lanodan It really bugs me that things like ed and bc aren't included in default installs of RHEL these days.

@jmorris Gives you a file that's approximately 3 big.
