The core-js dilemma

Open Ricardicus opened this issue 2 years ago • 11 comments

Great initiative! Looking forward to this podcast.

I have some topics I'd like to suggest:

The core-js dilemma (see https://github.com/zloirock/core-js/blob/master/docs/2023-02-14-so-whats-next.md) This is a very sad story that is unfolding. It begs questions about the state of Open Source.. are there many hidden and important gems out there being thanklessly maintained like this? How can one ask for support? How to grow the number of maintainers? Experience of ungratefulness (maybe this will take a dark path for a convo) from people using the work.

core-js Weird, this is something we mentioned while recording the first pod ("The Pilot"). ..... don't blame the others that it is not online, I am late with my part of the work.

How about (trying at least) inviting

  • a company using FOSS components in their products (software, device, vehicle, ....)
  • a random person from Nebraska to discuss how their views on the situation.

copyright and generative AI You're thinking about a discussion on the implications in (c) law rather than an ethical?

Oh! There has been an episode already? Did not know that. 😅 well, both I guess.

Would very much like to hear what the random Nebraskan has to say about it also

We recorded "The Pilot" yesterday. Not yet published. Will try to publish it Monday.

Well, I guess @bagder is in quite a few ways not from Nebraska. Yet, curl is one of those projects that (more or less) everyone uses. We'll find an additional developer qualifying as from "Nebraska". Suggestions are welcome :)

Maybe being from Nebraska is more of a state of being, something that is in one's heart rather than a gps coordinate thing. Maybe the Russian core-js fellow is a Nebraskan in spirit in this sense. But this is just a hypothesis!

Actually try to invite the Russian man!

Allow me to also shamelessly link to the Money chapter of Uncurled: https://un.curl.dev/money

Can we move the generative AI part into its own issue to keep one topic per issue?

bagder avatar Mar 02 '23 18:03 bagder

I moved out "copyright and generative AI" into #42 as a separate topic proposal

Ok! I am sorry I didn't manage to do it myself.
