After reading this post about Rust having a “supply chain problem” and @[email protected]’s response linking to the blog post “I’m not a supplier”, I couldn’t help but think of this talk (opensource conference hosting exclusively on youtube, make that make sense).
hosted exclusively on youtube, make that make sense
It makes perfect sense, since it’s open source and not free/libre we are talking about. Open source doesn’t care about the philosophy or political movement behind free software. It’s an opportunistic appeal to corporations, advertising “open source” as just a more efficient development model
Makes sense indeed.
I find it hilarious (and sad) when opensource conferences pay for closed source conferencing software. Then make it available only on youtube or on vimeo behind a paywall. Or only make the demos available on youtube but require you to be physically present otherwise you miss it.
