  • I think you are highlighting an important point that are missed by other commenters emphasizing the developer. I prefer GPL over MIT license. But this is a possible fallback if Redis decides to change its licensing (like several others did).

    I think these kind of products have strategic significance for MS for their Azure offering. They are probably preparing to offer this there (in addition to and as an alternative to Redis). So, it makes sense for Microsoft to release this with an OSS license (otherwise no one will adopt it).

    I know you said “self hosted”, but if you are interested in an Android app, Google Play Books does most of what you want, I think. You can upload your books, and read them on any device (with offline capabilities). But this is the Self Hosted community, so I will show myself out.









  • Are you interested in working on a text editor? If so, I have an idea I plan on implementing myself for fun: a clone of HeyNote with some added functionality. HeyNote is a simple buffer that consists of blocks. It’s useful when you just want to note a simple block of text (an SQL query, log output, test data) but you are not interested in structuring it. What HeyNote lacks is the ability to add title and tags to blocks. It’s not an alternative to other note taking applications. It is just a buffer with unrelated blocks in it.









  • In 2014 Robert Martin claimed that number of developers doubles every 5 years and says:

    As long as that growth curve continues there will not be enough teachers, role models, and leaders. It means that most software teams will remain relatively unguided, unsupervised, and inexperienced. […] It means that the industry as a whole will remain dominated by novices, and exist in a state of perpetual immaturity.

    Not sure if the data can be confirmed or not, but if that’s the case it will be difficult to maintain the best practices in our industry.
