Open Source@lemmy.ml•Closed‑source vs source‑available vs open‑source — which model makes the most sense for small tools?
1·5 months agoYeah, that’d mean you need some type of source accessible license. Not sure which specific one tho, you’ll have to look deeper into it’

12·5 months agoYou’re on the open-source community, of course we’ll be biased in favour of open source. One thing to point out is that open-source and closed source are both pretty broad categories that cover several licenses. Source available means people can see the code, but there are restrictions to how they can use it. Is there a specific thing you don’t want people to do with your code? Do you not want them to edit it for example? Or you’re fine with them editing it, but not for commercial purpose ? Any restriction of this type will make it source-available. If you’re fine with them doing anything, it’s open source. If you want them to mention somewhere that their code is based on yours, it’s still open source. And if you want any code made by editing yours to also be open source, that’s still open source (that’s the idea of the GPL). But other restrictions might make it not fit that category.
I personally usually default to the GPL3, I’m fine with people doing anything with my code except making it non-open source. Well “my code”… It might be a bit presumptious of me, I’m not really a programmer, I’ve just made a few small and not very useful things. There may be legitimate reasons for not wanting your code to be open source sometimes, but for me the stakes have always been low.
As for whether using Github creates an expectation for Open-Source… Not so much at this point. It’s very used by the Open-Source community, but not only. Plus, it’s not really open-source itself, so the most purist prefer other git platforms like git-lab, forgejo or source-hut.
Fun fact: Finnic and Estonian are both Finnic languages. Meanwhile, the other Nordic countries mostly speak Scandinavian languages an the other Baltic countries speak Baltic languages, which are part of the broader Balto-Slavic group. So really, from a linguistic perspective at least, Finns and Estonians are more similar to each-other than to any of their neighbors. And also pretty similar to Hungary (Magyar being a Finno-Ugric language).
For anyone confused, this is a reference to Crank mah Hog, the biblical city and its king from the Apocalypse to which George Bush Jr was referring when he tried to get the French president Jacques Chirac to join the Second Gulf War.
Among the classics from the 60s, I’d also add Thelonious Monk, Arts Bakey, then the Headhunters, and Sun Ra’s Arkestrs. That’s a period with a lot of diversification (free jazz, bebop, funk jazz, Afrofuturism…). Earth Wind and Fire is also funk jazz.
There also Tito Puente from Puerto Rico, which leads me to transition to the caribbeans. Outside of the US, you have of course Compay Secundo and the Buena Vista Social Club, and also Juan Pable Torres in Cuba. Caribbean Sextet in Haïti. While we’re in the Caribbeans, Ska is also derived from jazz and Rocksteady and Reggae are in turn derived from it, try older Ska bands like the Skatalites, that’s where it’s most obvious.
In Africa there’s Manu Dibango from Cameroon, who blends some trafitional music influence, also Mulatu Atatske from Ethiopia (who’s still alive and kicking), then you have the whole Afrobeat genre starting in Nigeria with Fela Kuti (early Afrobeat is still really close to jazz, though modern Afrobeat, which is closer to hip-hop).
That’s those I know best among the classics (I’m not sctually a huge expert despite my tirade, I may have been exagerating a bit because I got defendive and also as a joke). But if you search almost any country name and add “jazz” after it, you’ll certainly get a result (the only time I failed was when I tried Bhutan, and I still think they likely have jazz somewhere, it’s just hard to find).
My favorites among the recent ones are Shabaka Hutchings from the UK and, Thurgo Théodat from Haïti (not super famous, but really good, I’ve actually heard him play live). Mulattu Atatske has also done stuff recently, and sun Ra’s Arkestra still exists.
Also, since nobody plays jazz alone, once you found a jazz player you like, a good way to find more is to see who they’ve played with. If it’s a band, see the members and what other band they’ve played in!
What even are words? Pieces of long dead people’s thoughts, which we assemble as grim puppets to replicate our own thoughts in a form that we hope others will comprehend? To hell with this, return to grunts and screams.
They’re also not birds. Or ladies, for that matter.
Also, we definitely needed to know whether or not the cake was real.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•I feel the same about jazz
212·6 months agoIf 1000 people love jazz, I am one of them. If 100 people love jaee I am one of them. If 1 person loves jazz, it is me. If noone loves jazz, I am dead.
If the world is against jazz, then I am against the world.
For the history podcasts, I listene to “The History of Rome” and “Revolutions”, both by Mike Duncan, and “The History of Byzantium” by Robien Pierson.
The woman reading fairy tails and books is Abitlate (she also has the youtube channel Abitfrank)
For the group of people chatting format, I have “The Deprogram”, which is a communist podcast about politics, and “Une invention sans avenir”, a podcast about cinema, which is in French.
The daily fiction one is “La chute de Lapinville”, also in French. And while I’m on the topic of French fiction podcats, " Les Donjons de Nahelbeuk" is of course a classic.
Types of podcast I listen to:
- History podcasts (the best type)
- That one French daily fiction podcast about a fictional city that’s a mix of realistic and absurd
- A woman reads fairy tales and old novels
- A small group of people (always the same + tye occasional guest) discuss the one thing they’re all fascinated by, with a different thematic each day.
