How can someone steal MIT-licensed software? The license says:

Permission is hereby granted [...] to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software [...]

If you don't want other people to be able to sell it, don't use an MIT license.

The license also says:

The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

If the copyright attribution for the original code is missing, that violates the license. MIT is not a "no rights reserved" license like 0BSD or Unlicense.

Wow I had no idea ngrok had raised $50M, that's wild!

purple.com had a similar page for years, and eventually the mattress company rolled up with a dumptruck load of cash

IBM has ~300k employees and uses Slack.

Don't forget Underscore!

Node also has a built-in server and SQLite these days though? Or if you want a lot more functionality with just one dependency, Hono is great.

And how many dependencies does Hono have? Looks like about 26. And how many dependencies do those have?

A single static zig executable isn’t the same as a a pipeline of package management dependencies susceptible to supply chain attacks and the worst bitrot we’ve had since the DOS era.

> And how many dependencies does Hono have?

Zero.

I'm guessing you're looking at the `devDependencies` in its package.json, but those are only used by the people building the project, not by people merely consuming it.

That doesn't prevent supply chain attacks. Dev dependencies are still software dependencies and add a certain level of risk.

This is needlessly pedantic unless you are writing from an OS, browser, etc. that you wrote entirely by yourself, without using an editor or linter or compiler not written by you, in which case I tip my cap to you.

Only in the sense that any other software on the developers' machines adds a certain level of risk.

Who do you want to hear from that you're not seeing make statements? Hakeem Jeffries? Chuck Schumer? Ken Martin?

I had no luck generating full-size, NYT-style puzzles, but was able to generate 5x5 minis!

I pre-defined a handful of layouts (minis generally just have corners blacked out), and brute-forced puzzles with all 4 or 5-letter words (depending on the space available, given the blacked-out squares) using a word list from Wordnik. I used an LLM to generate clues.

Yeah, it seems the general consensus is that LLMs can't generate large newspaper style crosswords.

For now I will just use Phil to build mini puzzles and try using an LLM to help generate clues. Thanks.

Have you checked out Linear (https://linear.app)?

I haven't! Will have to try them out, thanks!

At $250/visit, that's just weekly landscaping and housecleaning. More than I pay for myself (we have a housecleaner that comes monthly), but not unreasonable, especially for a well-paid dual-income household.

Re: Your compensation, Levels can be eye opening: https://www.levels.fyi/?compare=Facebook,Microsoft,Google,Am...

The person said $1,000 a month for landscaping and $1,000 a month for house cleaning. Thats like 1/3 of my take home. Is that really normal for people?

Regarding salary, Looking at my area, unless im in FAANG seems like im making around what the site says. I feel like that expense would be too much but maybe I just didnt get into stocks or crypto as much as others have done here.

Yeah $1,000 a month would be $250 a week, which is 2-3 person hours of a housecleaner or landscaper's time, so like a 2 person crew for an hour or 90 minutes.

If you and your spouse each make $150k (so $300k household income), paying 8% of your income ($24k/year) to have 6 extra hours a week to spend with your kids seems like a fair trade.

Two people working in tech could easily be making more like a $5-600k household income though, at which point $24k is only 4-5%.

I guess since im not married I looked at it differently. Sill is both spouses making that kind of money really that common?

$300k puts you in the 94th percentile for household income, so objectively no, it's not that common.

In tech though, especially in the Bay Area, it feels like the norm.
