exactly. Forking for any reason is the essence of FOSS.
Scenarios like OPs were taken care of right from the start. That’s just the legal side, tho. But someone still needs to do the actual work which is why it sometimes fails.

Public funds.
There actually are lots of initiatives (e.g. https://bigdatastack.eu/european-open-source-initiative ) but it’s still young and there are multiple problems between available public money and contributors actually earning a salary.
Money is not the problem.
either earn a good living being a code monkey, or find a job in a small company that has passion
crazy idea: let’s publicly fund FOSS projects so devs working on stuff they like with a passion can actually make a good living and enable sustainable non-profits to hire expertise, marketing and all the stuff a company needs
the result would be actually good software and happy devs
25 years in the industry here. As I said there’s nothing against learning something new but I doubt it’s as easy as “leveling up”.
Both fields profit a lot from experience and it’s as much gain for a scientist do become a software dev as an architect becoming a carpenter. It’s simply not productive.
there is so much time lost in research institutes because of shoddy programming
Well, that’s the way it is. Scientific code and production code have different requirements. To me that sounds like “that machine prototype is inefficient - just skip the prototype next time and build the real thing right away.”
It’s always good to learn new stuff but in terms of productivity: Don’t attempt to be a programmer. Rather attempt to write better research code (clean up code, revision control, better commenting, maybe testing…)
Rather try to improve cooperation with programmers, if necessary. Close cooperation, asking stupid questions instead of making assumptions etc. makes the process easy for both of you.
Also don’t be afraid to consult different programmers since beyond a certain level, experience and expertise in programming is vastly fragmented.
Experienced programmers mostly suck on your field and vice versa and that’s a good thing.
why would using a cdn I don’t control, from a non-contracted 3rd party and their “PageShield” app reduce my supply chain attack risk?
Am I not just increasing the attack surface since now my visitors can be victim not only by my servers being compromised but now also by the 3rd party being compromised?
serious question.
Consequence:
Software can only be good, when enough people WANT to work on it and with it along the complete life-cycle. There’s a critical amount of developers/contributors/testers and (feedback providing) users.
Hence a lot of critical consumer stuff is based on popular opensource.
Also, we’re entering an aera where the difference between hardware/firmware/software gets increasingly blurred. So all of this applies to more and more hardware, too.

Didn’t he prefer theatrical acting & live audience and thus played his TV role like a theater actor would? I vaguely remember reading about it.
Those tend to traditionally exaggerate gesture, mimic and tone so the last row still gets everything even when they’re further away.
world-renowned, enterprise-level antivirus software running
lol. better just use defender next time.
edit: or not use windows.
much more important: we’d be years ahead with storage technology.
your own fault. get a nuclear reactor next time d’uh…
non-native speakers hate those :-)

I dislike basically everything after Enterprise but this is… not too bad. I’d say it’s maybe a bit like “Simpsons meets Star Trek”. Definetly worth to check out a few episodes to see if you like it. If you like the jokes, you’re in for a cool ride.
Rather if they get merged without edits.
I’ve seen even minor changes without flawed technique or style being discussed and changed for days before getting merged.
But it’s also an excellent way to learn from pros. If the PR is worth it, they will spend the time for review and work with you until you fixed everything.
His transformation during the series is interesting. He’s developing as he learns about humanity.
Also don’t miss the episodes in Voyager featuring him ;-)
not sure why you’re downvoted. of course member states enforce it.
