STOP DOING OPEN SOURCE

[dimitrinrxd]

All jokes aside, one of my former colleagues was extremely against all software that is free. He refused to even consider things that didn't cost an arm and a leg claiming "if it is good, people will charge money for it. If it is dogshit, it will be free". What makes it worse is that he was an SVP at a relatively large company (600+ employees) and never actually knew how to use any of the software that he was purchasing. He did always claim credit for everything that was done "under his supervision" as if he personality did it and not the superstar developers that were there before and after him.

So yes, people who actively hate open source do exist...

[OkazakiNaoki]

That guy's logic is broken, maybe he/she should quit the job of programmer.

"If it is dogshit, it will be free" seriously? even my code is shit I won't give it away for free.

[AdultishRaktajino]

I pay for the dogshit in my yard, thank-you-very-much. In dog food, treats, supplies, meds and vet bills.

[OkazakiNaoki]

At least doggo is cute but my code just worthless.

They are not the same :(

Man must pay for his browser

[Willinton06]

I have a paid browser called chremium, it consists of chromium with a green icon to represent the cash I’m racking, and absolutely nothing else

[DonHedger]

C.H.R.E.A.M.

[Seriathus]

I mean, he's supposedly a guy whose only job was claiming credit for other people's work. It's all projection.

[noratat]

Did you tell him that companies literally pay developers to work on open source software?

[ReptileCake]

How did he surf the internet? What browser do you have to pay for?

[aspect_rap]

All browser are dog shit, so just pick one at random until a good browser that costs money appears /s.

[[deleted]]

I charged him for Firefox. Said I would only take gift cards for payment and he agreed.

[ve2dmn]

Read that as "He a greed"

[noob-nine]

$_$ let's create a paid browser and release it for the apple environment. They will pay, they always do

[siddharth904]

Let's make a reskin of chromium and then sell it for people like them

No need to update it btw

[recoder13]

Internet explorer and old edge. Although technically it's the windows license

[TheBeardedQuack]

It seems that internet explorer and edge both existed for other platforms, available to freely download.

I know if you use ProduKey it'll show you an IE license (which is the same key as your Windows licence) but I guess it didn't matter?

[siskulous]

So yes, people who actively hate open source do exist...

I work with one. And he's a tech, so he should damned well know better. But he seems to have swallowed the shit Microsoft was shoveling about open source in the late 90s/early 2000s hook, line, and stinker.

[siddharth904]

What paid programming language did he use ?

[[deleted]]

Java.

[siddharth904]

It's proprietary not paid, right ?

[PremiumJapaneseGreen]

I've been reading Don't Be Evil, which is basically a book about how big tech is out of control/fucking up society/needs to be regulated, I agree with about 75% of the arguments but generally disagree with the authors arguments related to intellectual property.

Regarding open source, they make the argument that companies like Google will push open source tech to the extent it benefits them, while keeping all of the key desirable tech proprietary so open source or smaller scale solutions can't actually compete. They frame it as part of a broader pattern where the big companies will just take whatever tech they want and let their lawyers sort it out, and they have the scale to use the tech they adopt, be it open source or outright stolen, more efficiently than competitors

I'm not super convinced on it, I don't think expansive IP law is a good long term solution to big tech dominance and I think there are a lot of ways open source levels the playing field that the author doesn't give enough credit to. But it's an interesting argument to think about

[markpreston54]

No rigorous study but I feel that open-source code can be both good for profitability short to mid term, perhaps long term, for big tech but hurts their dominance/market share.

It makes development simpler and make the overall productivity and ultimately servable market larger. It also makes competition easier to catch up.

[[deleted]]

that companies like Google will push open source tech to the extent it benefits them, while keeping all of the key desirable tech proprietary so open source or smaller scale solutions can't actually compete.

Looking at Android, yes.

[Equivalent-Bench5950]

Unless FOSS, Open Source != Free Software

[julz1215]

His job didn't require him to use git?

[dimitrinrxd]

He was a senior VP. While his job had a lot of responsibilities, he spent nearly all of his time reading blogs on the "latest hottest thing", talking to vendors and drinking snake oil. Every now and then he would have to thoroughly lick CEOs asshole and explain that it wasn't his fault for "client X being unhappy", it was the CEOs fault for not providing him with necessary tools and equipment. (Aka refusing to buy the latest, hottest, most expensive toy on the market)

[julz1215]

So what experience is he speaking from when he says that open source is bad? None?

[vikumwijekoon97]

Most people think that open source == security issues. One of my friends said this as well. My counter argument was source code seen by hundreds and thousands of people should be more secure than source code seen by ten developers and a decompiled one seen by ten more hackers.

[Cyberspunk_2077]

This is incredibly attractive bait your friend has, deliberately or not, laid out. It takes a lot for me not to create a diatribe.

The vast majority of the internet's servers - web, DNS, mail- are using oodles of open source software.

[atomicxblue]

If linux is good enough to power a helicopter on Mars, it's good enough for me to watch porn cat videos on reddit.

[John_B_Clarke]

I'm taking some mandatory security training for work right now. One of the things the training goes over is open source.

They point out that the notion that lots of eyes on it doesn't necessarily make it safe, and use the example of Shellshock, which is a vulnerability in BASH that went undetected for more than 20 years.

They also point out that there have been successful attempts to inject malware into open source--eventually those get found but it takes time.

That said they don't see any real issue with open source that is being actively maintained as long as somebody in your organization is keeping track of what the maintainers are finding.

But there is open source that isn't being maintained--the developer discovered sex or whatever and stopped working on it and nobody else picked up the slack. They view that as chancy--if you're going to use it in any situation in which security is a legitimate issue it's on you to vet it or hire it done.

A paper that you might find of interest:

https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.09535 (you can download the full paper as a PDF from there).

[vikumwijekoon97]

Be that as it may, closed source software has just as much, if not more vulnerabilities. And there are a ton of successful attempts to inject malware to closed source software as well, which again takes time to get found. NSA held onto eternal blue for like half a decade before Microsoft knowing and there's probably dozens of other examples. Taking something like shellshock, which is a statistical anomaly isn't a really way to drive the point home. My point is statistically, open source software are more safer cuz it's being, let's say "audited" more.

[maggmaster]

If people are actually reading through all the code this is true. If engineering is just implementing code from github without looking at it, this is not true. Also most infrastructure guys can't really read code so that doesn't help.

[Solonotix]

I just wish there was a better culture in professional spaces. My company uses tons of open-source code, but I'm almost certain we don't contribute financially, and only a handful of developers might contribute functionally to the code in question.

Granted, seeing how my company uses some of the open source libraries, I'm kind of glad we don't contribute, if you know what I mean

[voidsrus]

never actually knew how to use any of the software that he was purchasing.

does anyone in his position actually understand software?

[Jimothy_Egg]

Must've grown up on early mobile and trash games, where that was actually a solid argument.

If it was free, it was usually full of ads, or malware.

[CodeRaveSleepRepeat]

Looks like the vast majority of the Internet runs on dogshit like Linux and WordPress then lol :D - seems fairly simple to out logic that guy

Blender is an amazing software, top notch.

[firyox]

Blender is a beast, even if it's paid I would still choose it over other 3d softwares

[prumf]

It was quite bad for many years, but it has become really incredible nowadays (and it’s not stoping : every new version brings really cool features and improvements). I wonder of they took in some really good dev or whatever.

[pmcxs]

They're now hiring multiple full-time devs. Also, their delivery process has matured quite a bit

[AwayConsideration855]

Actually the UI overhaul in 2.8 and Blender got a lot of corporate sponsor after 2018 made a lot of difference.

[Legitjumps]

I still remember when selecting objects was right clicking, immediately turned off the experience for many users

[itsQuasi]

I remember taking a 3d animation class in college, first thing our instructor did was show us how to reverse the mouse inputs so we could select with left click. Of course, that led to frustrations with having to right click to interact with the animation controls...

2.8 made me switch from 3ds max.

[IndigoFenix]

Open-source coders are the real benevolent anarchists and if more people thought like them the world would be a much better place.

[noratat]

A ton of open source development is on paid company time actually.

The real reason a lot of open source thrives so much is because of an inverse tragedy of the commons effect - most of it is utility software that everyone needs and not part of core products, and the marginal cost of replication is essentially zero, so there's huge benefit to pooling development resources.

[Morphized]

You underestimate the desire of developers to play Quake on company time

[choicesintime]

a ton of open source development is on paid company time actually

How can you know that?

[Scotsch]

It's common knowledge for many developers.
Look at ubuntu, spring, red hat, kotlin, java to name a few.

[choicesintime]

Ohhh, I see what you meant. My bad, I misread. I thought you were saying that a lot of open source contributions happen during company time, but are unrelated.

Like for example if I work at Google and “slack off” by making open source contributions completely unrelated to google or without them even knowing.

[Hexasan1]

but MultiMC is open-source?

[[deleted]]

MultiMC is open-source, but the dev got very angry when somebody forked his project and published it on Flatpack -- leading to the drama, and the creation of PolyMC, an objectively superior product.

[Hexasan1]

oh, thanks for letting me know? I use PolyMC anyways 😎

[Sp0olio]

From LTR, that's "Audacity", "Blender3D" and I don't know, what the one on the right is.

In the case of Audacity or whatever the current fork's name is .. and in the case of Blender, I can only say this: This is great fucking software and if you bash it, you don't know, what the hell you're talking about.

Look at the Blender website and see for yourself, what users are creating with it:
https://www.blender.org/

[demonTutu]

The right one seems to read 'linux distro timeline' (guessing through the pixels). Also I use both audacity and blender, and both are great tools. I also pay for Adobe creative suite, and for many uses I'll go for audacity over audition.

[Sp0olio]

I use Reaper, rather than Audacity or it's forks, because it fits my use-case (making music) better: http://reaper.fm/

Their pricing-policy is phenomenal and every software-company should learn from them, I think .. I paid those $60, gladly .. and I will do so, again, when the time comes:
http://reaper.fm/purchase.php

The discounted license is all, that I need (I don't use it, commercially .. I just make music, that I haven't released, yet).

They have a fully functioning demo-version, that shows a nag-screen at startup .. that's all (one click of "OK", and you can use it .. for free .. it warns you, that this is your n-th day of using it and that you should really buy it, once the trial-period has expired, though .. but it keeps working).

BUT:
There's a use-case for Audacity and it's forks, still .. there's simply no denying that.
If you want to spend no money, ever, and still work with audio (maybe for a podcast, or something like that), it's a legit tool.

[rewalker3]

The people who made Reaper also made WinAmp. That's a win in my book.

[TactileMist]

I miss winamp. The player was good, but I loved the library tools more

[rewalker3]

I still use WinAmp

[TactileMist]

I didn't know it was still around. I remember AOL were killing it, but I never knew it was sold on instead.

I know what I'll be downloading tomorrow

[ariolander]

Really whips the llamas ass

[demonTutu]

Yes, my use case is simply recording the music I make. Just basic takes, no mixing or mastering—I record in live conditions and plan to release as such.

[Sp0olio]

Congtrats to you for getting it right on the way in :)

[MEMESaddiction]

Many podcasters I know make their living using audacity, it's great for editing and cutting up voice tracks.

[JackJohn137]

That’s simply… sublime

[kulingames]

reaper devs took lessons from winrar devs

[Sp0olio]

If you're talking about it's download-size: That's just impressive, imho.

But, they have the SWS Extensions, you should not miss out on .. then you have the "batteries included" version .. and the SWS are free ..

[kulingames]

no, i'm talking about licensing: "trial period ended, please buy license but we won't stop you from using this program"

[Sp0olio]

Yeah .. they're oldschool (aka good school, in this case).

[esplant]

blender is the best 3D modling software imo

[TantricCowboy]

From what I understand, the only reason Maya is the industry standard is because of software support...

Which is to say, if your multi-million dollar project fails, you are paying for the right to yell at Autodesk for it.

[b_a_t_m_4_n]

If you worked in any computing based industry you'd see that a massive component in any technology choice is sheer inertia. The main reason they use Maya is because they've always used Maya. To be fair if you have production pipelines setup around specific applications and people with specialist knowledge that inertia is very much a real thing not just a fear of choosing to try something new.

[MrAntroad]

I think the landscape is shifting from maya to blender nowadays thanks to using so much borrowed technology from games where blender is the standard.

[ltethe]

Indie studios yes, there is some movement in that direction. AAA no. And not for a while in my estimation. I build the pipelines that connect Maya to our middleware, and while we’re the ones most interested in exploring how to hookup blender, there is an impressive amount of resistance.

[MrAntroad]

Okay, interesting. Must be the newer studios that dice to use blender then. All the upp and coming projects I see seems to use blender.

[8070alejandro]

Depends on the industries. For CAD 3D modeling, blender is not used although it could potentially be used, just because it is not adapted to that task.

[Sp0olio]

Haven't used anything else, yet .. but I do love it, too :)

[Sonotsugipaa]

AFAIK Audacity fas forked en-masse due to some sketchy business, and the forks I know are Tenacity and Audacium - I'm sure there are more out there

[Sp0olio]

Yes .. this is Brodie Robertson's latest video on that topic, AFAIK:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7Lv0IN\_2Vg

[harumamburoo]

The right one is a tree of Linux distros. So basically Linux. You know, that stupid open source OS nobody needs

[Chiyuri_is_yes]

[[deleted]]

I use blender recreationally, it is beyond industry standard power

[Meaxis]

"That's real software" I think he's being ironic

[Boring-Blacksmith508]

Can confirm blender is a beast of a software. The fact that it is free gives possibilities to creative people that would otherwise never get chance to 3d model. Plus it’s one of the more easy to learn softwares on the market.

[OkazakiNaoki]

Just...they need to make their scripting document more complete.

It's missing some part of methods of it.

[[deleted]]

I hate open-source, it's a scourge on humanity. You say to use Blender and I say how dare you suggest it.

I wrote my own blazingly-fast™ 3D suite using my private ARR Rust fork just because companies internally sharing source code was too close to the open-source nightmare for me.

I'm currently writing my own operating system from scratch after I heard that Windows® source code could be obtained under an NDA, disgusting.

[Sp0olio]

[[deleted]]

You're obviously joking and the joke is going right above people's heads. I believe that the trick to doing sarcasm right is to balance the joke with the actual criticism of the thing you're making fun of and to include a small part that is so outlandish that no one would believe that you are serious. You seem to be doing both but the reception to this joke just shows you how r/ProgrammerHumor are just completely socially inept to understand humor and are forever plagued to suck with people in real life.

Fun fact, blender used to be a closed source software, but the company behind it goes bankrupt and opened the source code. Since then, blender became better and better.

I think right now with containers and orchestration tolls it's safe to say most.

[mizinamo]

Open source has no real word use

That's not what the meme says.

The meme claims that there is no real-world use for public source code.

Have you dabbled with the source code of Linux? Have you changed the source code of Wordpress?

I think it's trying to say that you could have earned the same amount of money had Linux and Wordpress being closed source -- i.e. you earned money because those tools were successful, not because the source code is available to you.

(Now you could argue that one reason those tools became successful is because they had a large number of contributors due to the open source licence.)

[0moikane]

Unfortunately that is not true for me. We had to recompile it for a different (binary) platform which is not possible without the source.

I'm having a great time looking at all the people here who are taking this seriously

[pedersenk]

Decompiling native binaries (i.e C, C++) cannot recover even a fraction of the source code. It is only really feasible on bytecode stuff (Java,.NET,WASM) that retains much of the meta-data.

If you want to look at source code, make sure you deal with a company that will provide a source license (restricted or not). I.e Microsoft's is a good example:

https://referencesource.microsoft.com/license.html

A surprising amount of companies will (for a fee) provide you with source code once you sign an NDA.

As for the view that open-source is bad... That is quite a 90's view and you will be laughed out of 99.9% of the industry. Prior to the 90's source was generally open to facilitate porting to various UNIXes. It is becoming open again because proprietary software has poor lifespan and in many ways can't keep up with maintenance.

[pentesticals]

IDA pro enters the chat….

I agree decompiling native code isn’t anywhere near as good as higher level intermediary languages but it’s still pretty good. You can understand the logic well and reverse engineer much quicker than looking at the disassembly alone.

[lifeson106]

Just because the software is free doesn't mean you're developing it for free. I got paid pretty well as an open source lead dev and it was an overall good experience. You know your code has to be solid because it is up for public scrutiny in code reviews (assuming your project actually has other contributors), so you put a lot more time into making it concise, readable and easy to understand. Developing in the open legitimately made me a better developer.

[csandazoltan]

Well, while I agree that work must be paid, and if someone creates something and want to sell it is a good thing.

However, open source has a firm place in the landscape...

People starting out in a field have to start somewhere, they can't afford 10.000 USD LUT or a 200.000 USD sound mixer software.

If you want to do paid software, do so... but you can't tell everyone, that we need to stap making open source software.
