Developers that contribute to an open source code, or to the single maintainer of a open source project?

How is the payment distributed proportionally to each contributor?

Or is it the case that the lead maintainer can decide to receive funds from tide lift without paying the contributors.


Did the organist obtain permission (appropriate license) to do so?

Or is it the case he did but its not possible to communicate that to YouTube?

Very different problems, one is failure to understand copyright the other is YouTube having a poor user experience.


Its not cheaper per impact, however you need to buy bigger numbers, millions typically.


Which no 'modern' web developer would go anywhere near!


What the hell is this...


fair swap


Is this open to Europeans and have you heard of GDPR?


Too much language/syntax to learn in my opinion, prefer something succinct that I can build up from.


Learning an entirely new and different language has a much higher barrier to start, in my opinion. Coming from procedural programming, a language that transforms your thinking smoothly is a good tradeoff I think.


Don't kids get taught a functional language at Uni anymore?

It would appear it stopped at probably the same time they started teaching Java. Which is why some developers like my self are a bit amused by the younger generation be amazed by this 'new' thing.

Interested in others experience on this, was taught Pop-11, Miranda around 1996 at Uni.


I am about to complete my Graduation in this year. In 1st semester we introduced to C. Most of the problem solvings are done via C. In sophomore year, we tend to learn Java, Android, PHP or C#. That's it! That's how it goes in Indian Subcontinent(e.g. India, Bangladesh and Pakistan). Functional programming is not in our wishlist, sadly :( But I think I'm gonna give it a try. I've heard that it changes one's way of thinking. Don't know big of a truth is this!


We (CS, Germany) got an introduction in the first semester to Java, Haskell, and Prolog. But then it was possible to graduate by "only" having a strong math background, without any programming skills. Looking back I wished we were forced to learn Haskell through the whole studies.


Most people are ignorant then :)


Ok, KG is not what most people who work with and on it would consider AI.


Yep PR release, help keep shareholders happy.

However I would argue hiring a 'suit' who was CTO for a reputable knowledge based AI company 8 years ago, and since been in a strategic position during Googles recent progress is more valuable to Apple at this time than a well published researcher.
