Thank you for this writeup - we hit the same issue and effectively were getting DDOSed by Claude Code.

Why would you judge a person based purely on what other people say about them, and not on your own interactions with them?

If they'd wanted you to do that, they would have named the files something like "CMakeLists.txt".

Except.. it didn't blather on at all, and got right to the point.

Those lawyers are correct.

Not all jurisdictions of the world legally recognize the concept of 'public domain'.

FUSER.

It's basically easy-mode music mixing/DJing with live cooperative multiplayer.

Have you ever sat down and had a long, and deep conversation with someone suffering from severe paranoid schizophrenia after they've experienced a psychotic break?

I assure you, you will quickly understand the difference.

Especially if that someone is your previously un-diagnosed friend and business partner.

Do you not find yourself to be naturally persuaded by your friends through your time and experiences with them?

I find that experience to be persuasive, as well. It persuades me about the kindness of your friends.

Human interaction is fundamentally persuasive, even when completely unintentional. I don't think you can get around that.

I think your underlying point is fair, but I'd like to see you post a more constructive explanation of where it would be useful for the analogy to capture a truth about cloud services that is not true for, say, flour - switching cloud providers is incredibly difficult due to vendor lock-in.

It really was such a brilliant move on Netflix's part.

I grew up in an era where running your own servers was just generally accepted practice.

It's been fascinating watching how dramatically that viewpoint has shifted over the years to the point where it is now a novel idea to do so.
