  • I think one general benefit of open source is that in general - they are built for the user rather than for the stakeholders.

    If Spotify was an open source app - you know for sure you would be able to hide podcasts for example (for people who don’t care about podcasts and just want a music experience). However, since for Spotify The Business it’s better to piss off X% of their users if Y% of their users turn into podcast users - they’re not going care about the angry X%.

    So in general - in open source apps you’ll generally find features users actually want and very rarely the app will try to push new features on you because they’re trying to make numbers look good on their quarterly report.


  • Vår grannes grannes grannes hus började brinna och vi tyckte att var en bra idé att teckna en hemförsäkring. Huset därborta har nu brunnit i 1,5 år och fortfarande inte spridit sig.

    Jag vet inte. Min känsla är att NATO-ansökan kom alltför hastigt och var ett panikartat beslut. Beslutet togs baserat på att Ryssland var läskigt för 1,5 år sen. Inte baserat på om vi vill vara med i NATO om 10 eller 20 år.
