@Crell Yeah, in retrospect I'm probably just being code-perfectionistic in one specific way at the cost of additional unnecessary complexity.

Thanks!

re: Video Game Licensing

@Angle

(Actual answer: yes!)

I seem to recall coming across something about how existing FOSS licenses are still too permissive to profit-driven interests, and the poster was proposing something like an "anti-evil license" that bore down harder on preventing abusive usage of the code.

...but the reference, if I saved it at all, is probably buried somewhere in my tabs. I'll flag you if I come across it again.

Video Game Licensing

So I'm thinking about licensing the code for my game as being AGPL, except with an explicit noncommercial rider, something roughly like:

```
“All AGPL permissions are granted only for noncommercial purposes.
Commercial use requires a separate license.
Voluntary donations that do not gate access are allowed.”
```

Does this sound reasonable? :/

@Crell

Quick example here: https://wooz.dev/PHP/redundant_inheritance

...though really, the example code is simple enough that it's probably legible here:

Interface example

interface A {}
interface A1 extends A {}
interface A2 extends A {}
interface B extends A1, A2 {}

Interface B is now redundantly inheriting from interface A.

Trait example

trait A {}
trait A1 { use A; }
trait A2 { use A; }
trait B { use A1, A2; }

Trait B is now redundantly inheriting from trait A.

Apologia

(I didn't feel like getting up to reach my phone to load Authy to get a 2FA code to log into GitHub to try and figure out how to do a gist, partly because I'm still recovering from a cold but also because I try to avoid using GitHub because Microsoft.)

Does anyone know what the resource-usage tradeoff in #PHP is like between (a) having redundantly-inherited traits and interfaces and (b) writing one or more variants of each trait/iface in order to avoid that?

The Right is basically an alliance a codependent relationship between (a) people who crave power ("powermongers") and (b) people who are unwilling or unable to look at the bigger picture if they're fed an emotionally-satisfying narrative that doesn't require it ("gullibles" or "suckers").

@riley This is part of the process I call "the financial event-horizon": wealth disappears into an ever-increasing well from which nothing may ever be recovered.

(There is slow quantum-evaporation due to bad loans / bankruptcies, but this is orders of magnitude less than the accretion-rate -- even during bubble-pops.)

@riley Ahh yes, I've been looking for terminology to use around that concept!

@riley I was thinking more of the whole "helping fascist murderers organize information about people to target" thing; the exact task at hand for any data-oriented endeavor is obviously going to change over time.

Some really good news.
A new university will be built in Arviat, Nunavut, on the western shores of Hudson’s Bay, by 2030. It will be by and for Inuit peoples and all to learn the culture and language of the North and for people in the North to obtain post-secondary education in their language.
