Copying is not theft.

I think that they will. Much like tech workers who had no interest in unions because they thought that they were aligned with the owners, management is going to have a rude awakening and learn that if you don't own the company then you are just labor.

I suppose it is possible to have two PR that have changes that depend on each other. In general this just requires refactoring... typically making a third PR removing the circular dependency.

It sounds like your policy is to keep PR around a long time, maybe? Generally we try to have ours merged within a few days, before bitrot sets in.

You can make a PR against your feature branch and have that reviewed. Then the final PR against your man branch is indeed huge, but all the changes have already been reviewed, so it's just LGTM and merge that bad boy!

How is this different from creating a feature branch and making your PR against them until everything is done, then merging that into the main branch?

I'm reminded that Macs did not have right buttons for decades because Steve Jobbs didn't want them.

There are definitely non copyrighted videos! Both old videos (all still black and white I think) and also things released into the public domain by copyright holders.

But for sure that's a very small subset of videos.

The biking culture in Amsterdam is fine. The problem is tourists standing on the seperate bicycle lanes - colored red, with pictures of bicycles on them - and thinking that they are being assaulted when a cyclist rings their bell to wake them out of their cannabis-induced stupor so they can get to work.

Fat bicycles modified to go faster than 25 km used to be a problem, but they get stolen so quickly now it's less of an issue. 😆

It's unclear to me what your point is.

Is it that this is roughly equivalent to €345 today, and we should point out the current worth?

Or is it that the purchasers go 10 years of value for €270 and so this is a big nothing burger?

He is currently featured in a Humble Bundle, so if you read digital books (I use a tablet, my wife a ebook reader, but you can also use a phone or laptop) then you can get many of his books cheaply (without DRM, of course).
