The Unlicense VS SourceHut

It's theoretically helpful to at least put in a no-warranties clause. But sqlite as maybe the most popular public domain project worldwide doesn't (instead having a blessing). I mostly settled on the Unlicense https://unlicense.org/ over just saying 'public domain' or 'CC0' as a simple text blob to paste in, and in the event of a significant contribution from someone else, there's a simple text blurb to ask them... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

No, you're confused, because this is confusing: https://unlicense.org/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unlicense So if something is unlicensed (no license) you would be correct, but if something is unlicensed (unlicensed licence) you would be incorrect.. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

CC0[0] would be the obvious one; spicier and less legalese alternatives that nonetheless amount to about the same thing include the Unlicense[1] and the Do What the Fuck You Want License[2] [0] https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/ [1] https://unlicense.org/ with some philosophical discussion at https://ar.to/2010/01/set-your-code-free [2] http://www.wtfpl.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

Interesting, looks like the Open Source Initiative decided to pull their endorsement of CC0 over the same clause. Apparently OSI decided to approve Unilicense as a public-domain equivalent license. Source: over 1 year ago

So its licensed on github under the Unlicenced License which TL:DR means anyone can modify it and publish it for any reason. Besides, I don't think a single line of code from the original FT UI mod is in my FT UI mod. At that point if you still consider it stealing, I don't know what to tell it, it only changes a single byte of code. Source: over 1 year ago

Do you know SourceHut? https://sourcehut.org/ I would be really curious to have your opinion about it as compared to how it was 14 years ago. I feel like SourceHut does a really good job helping on the tooling side (it's super easy to setup a mailing list). Also I find Aerc very cool for that.

A few comments in-line, but I don't want to "sell" anything to you, so just FWIW. > The amount of "gotchas" in this process and the tooling required just to use git + email seems insane to me. The base system is really, really simple, but there are some common rules/guidelines that just help when working together, and those are required for forge based workflows too (or do you like a single commit touching a dozen... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
