Yes, that guy. If you compare it to the guy getting children addicted to gambling and manipulating elections, or to the guy destroying workers rights and manipulating the press, or to the guy firing half of the federal workers while doing the Nazi salute, changing the name of a project or a frivolous lawsuit here and there is the least of our concerns.

Why? I get that the company is awful, but the database is quite good, isn’t it?

It’s also basically free compared to a mountain of gold. But xen and proxmox and virt-manager and a bunch of others can be really free.

That’s the other way around.

I’m not a Nazi, I just admire their personnel picks. And their economic policy. And their uniforms. And the killing of some jews. But I’m not a Nazi!

Damn this AI, posting and doing all this mayhem all by itself on poor unsuspecting humans…

Well, I don’t believe so, but as you said it’s ultimately for a court to test it.

That wording is pointing to reselling the program or the same functionality. Of course if your service is “fast key based data retrieval” it would violate the definition, but something like “low latency gaming notifications” would not, because the value is gaming notifications, something redis doesn’t offer. Same as if your service uses encryption in transit, you’re not just reselling openssl.

Agree on the court, but the wording is super specific. Doesn’t matter if you couldn’t build it without a redis-like component, because of the speed or whatever, it is targeting “offering the program as a service”. There’s even an FAQ on the mongodb (SSPL authors) site regarding this. Unless your program is just a proxy to access redis, you’re fine.

I don’t think that’s correct. It maybe prohibits people from building a service to offer redis to third parties on Windows, but you can run redis in your stack on whatever OS you want, as long as what you are building is not “redis as a service”. So any end-user SaaS that just uses redis as a cache is not bound to section 13.

And even if you built a redis as a service, the operating system is not explicitly mentioned in the license, so it would be for a lawyer to say whether that’s required…

In communism the state has control of everything and everything is a monopoly.

QNAP, Asustor, UGreen, Unifi, and many others already offer lower cost NASes from 2 to 8 bays (some might offer even more)

Of course you have to pay for a commercial license, it’s in the name. Development, tooling, support, etc, all costs money.

I like the distinction. If you want to profit from open source, make your code open source. If not, pay up.

Redis allows a third option, a commercial license.

To be fair, I know redis and gitea (barely, gitlab is way more popular) and not the other two. Enterprise support and name recognition are quite important for government usage.

Even 6 quarters are a tall order to move out of the cloud, depending how much of the managed services you use…

We just need some better European CSPs, ionos or ovh could become it, but they’re not there yet.

Not Eastern ones, Chinese specifically. Japanese or Korean science is generally trusted, but dictatorships have a tendency of making shit up to look better. We’ll believe it when we see it.

China has plenty of achievements, but also plenty of bullshit vaporware. We’ll see which one this is.

That’s not how any of this works.

The weaker and more dependent from a man a woman is, the less likely she will have her own opinions, desires or plans, and less likely she will be to leave the insecure men who want this.
