  • Open-source software powers nearly all the world’s major companies. This software is freely available, and is developed collaboratively, maintained by a broad network that includes everyone from unpaid volunteers to employees at competing tech companies. Here’s how giving away software for free has proven to be a viable business model.

      @Everything I agree with Rezalion , That which was exploited by hackers get recognized and get paid to become white hats to beef up security. Turning what was once bad into good for others. It's a good article subject to look into. That which was bad, pushes for new learning for those that do which is good and it becomes a war of balance and learning progress for new technologies. Kindal ike AMD vs Nvidia have to up each other on new innovations to keep the market flow good for consumers.

      very true, if software was proprietary, then the barriers to entry would be too high for the regular person (only corporations could innovate, and they don't innovate, they build walls to solidify their position). The world needs fresh ideas, we need the innovators to provide solutions to our many problems, the ones that the corporations and governments don't want to bother with, and open source software is a key enabler in this struggle

    It's quite inaccurate to suggest that github standardized the way people collaborate on code projects. This credit goes to Linus Torvalds who invented git

    • @1pcfred
      @1pcfred 4 ปีที่แล้ว +151

      Linus didn't invent git, he wrote it. Other collaborative development system models already existed at the time. Linus simply wrote another. Because the one he liked (Bitkeeper) others screwed up Linux using it. They tried cracking the networking protocol it used. which the developer didn't appreciate. So he revoked Linux's use of his code. Which left Linus in a bit of a spot.

    The big problem in programming is the learning curve when you are just getting started. Getting a compiler uses to cost like 1599 or some ungodly amount but they would not sell less than 10 license copy to a kid. All I wanted is a single license. The student version was always limited because you don't need all that function. How to access MS Access using C++ at the time. I made the correct line of code and the student compiler said, "Why do you need to connect to a database?" I'm like trying to f-ing learn here and MS stopped my progress. MS owes me my childhood back.
    Today, I can get open source, learn, and if I can make a business or get sponsorship, I can do that. I am happy that everything is open-source now. It allows me the freedom to be creative. I only wish is that I can go back to 1990's and be developing at an early age.

    One key point missed in this video, was that Torvalds was developing Linux (a kernel without a tool-set) around the same time that Stallman was developing GNU (a tool-set without a kernel). Independently neither project was particularly interesting. What made Open Source EXPLODE, was the realisation that both projects fit hand-in-glove together. People began to create "Distributions" of Linux and GNU as a single unit (GNU/Linux) - Distributions like Red Hat, Suse, Slackware, and others is what really made the Open Source movement take off. None of it would have happened without all three factors meeting at the same time to create the Perfect Storm. Another key point to note: GitHub was built around Git, another of Torvalds' projects, that he wrote to manage the development of the Linux kernel. (Ive used Linux since 1993, First kernel 0.99.6)

First Red Hat, then Debian for a while, and from 2004 to 2018 Ubuntu. No I have settled on Linux Mint. Of course I use a lot of other open-source and free (libre) software too, like Firefox, Gimp, Quod Libet etc.. It has been interesting and fun to follow the spread and rise of open-source software from the modest early times to dominance in many areas. I believe that the spirit of open-source development has had a positive influence on many other areas of life. On the other hand, perhaps the open-source development model itself has also been inspired by some very different areas of life.

    So happy when I heard this young man say I'll never make money on what I do but I think I've done a lot of good in the world.
    As my time on Earth is soon coming to an end I look back and try to judge whether the good part of me has won in a struggle or the bad part.
    I do urge people to weigh themselves on the good/bad scale and seek like this man to leave behind a better world when its time to go.

      Actually, I expect that Microsoft will either open-source its OS, or change its NT underbelly to Linux anyway, if it doesn't want to become irrelevant. The danger to open source software could very well loom on the horizon when China takes over the bulk of software development. And no, this isn't your usual anti-China rhetoric of the day: I'm thinking of Huawei's very real attempts to introduce stuff like this as part of the Internet protocols: www.engadget.com/2020-03-30-china-huawei-new-ip-proposal.html More of this, and we may soon face closed-source software blobs as in the bad old days... but this time not from Microsoft and its NDA-partners, but from the IT hardware manufacturers, which would be, of course, from China.

    Microsoft might seam like an open source leader, but they repeatedly refuse to open source the important stuff. For example, instead of their primary IDE Visual Studio, they made open source a Visual Studio Code, not an IDE just a editor.

    A $60 raspberry pi 4 computer about the size of a deck of cards can run linux, minecraft, web browsers, email, or even a basic web or ftp server. You can plug in a regular USB keyboard, mouse, and a hdmi monitor. If you'd like to play with linux it's a really great way to get started.

      I've been wanting to make something like that.
      I need something to use as a dedicated web server.
      Also, say I'm running MERN stack (Mysql, express , react, node)
      AND an instance of XAMPP (php, mysql)
      I would have two instances of Mysql, is it ok to have two instances of Mysql?
      I see alot of instructions, to just run one on the regular port (3306) and the other on another port (3307, 3308, whatever)
      Point being....
      Is it ok to run these 2 stacks together?
      Do people run express MERN
      Along with apache XAMPP at the same time?
      Is it normal?
      Is it ok ?
      Best practices?
      Alot of ajax tutorials have people installing both of these, but that is for the tutorial and concepts sake.
      Is it ok to run both of these in the real world ?
      Assuming I'm going to run apps on prod on both.

      I dissagree. If you want to try GNU/Linux, do NOT start with raspberry Pi. It is not even powerful enought to run Android propertly, let alone full OS with multi tab webrowsing. It will give bad first impression. If you want to try, try Kubuntu on main PC without installing it (Live ISO).

    Is there a relation between rise of open-source software and stagnating salaries of software engineers?

    • @MagnumCarta
      @MagnumCarta 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      No. If anything, open source software has dramatically boosted the number of jobs available for software engineers. Stagnating salaries has more to do with a higher supply of software engineers comparative to past decades. Outsourcing work also plays a role in this since a developer in other parts of the world can build essentially the same software for a much lower salary. However OSS as a whole has not impacted salaries, business practices have reduced salaries.

  • @SimonGronlund
    @SimonGronlund 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    A tip to @CNBC, while on this subject, on what a REALLY cool OSS project looks like. Have a look at CURL and its creator, Daniel Stenberg. Started out as a miniature project but is now included in bazillions (literally) of commercial projects. Daniel can tell you as well amusing stories (he was once (unfairly) denied travelling into US because of CURL) as very serious aspects of driving such an important OSS project.
    I think CURL is the largest OSS project around just now.
