kinda realized the problem of 'code is law' - the old days of politics when most people were simply illiterate.
there's also the engine analogy - most people don't understand car engines but they still want to buy a car, so we jail those who sell unsafe cars rather than teaching everyone the pitfalls of mechanics.
emmmm... Anything interesting for further reading?
@jordan31@fosstodon.org @PeterCxy it's about developing the foundation before exposing children to more exciting (or gross) stuff. Say, when they can recognise the reality of civilization, the harm of showing some PG stuff becomes acceptable. It's not like no child can handle things beyond their age, and it's probably not THAT a big deal if a prematured one sees something that one's peers can't handle. the point is getting all of them ready, rather than a mere limit
@leo_song 但我一直很怀疑用对话解决根本冲突的可行性,又不是利益分配大家忍一下把蛋糕做大就能缓解的。记得读到过篇文,主张以前的国际交流还是大部分依赖于隔离,没人在乎手上的铅笔是共产主义出品,也没人在乎喂猪的黄豆是资本主义出品,闷声大发财是坠吼的。然而现在默许也变成了一种支持,非得逼着选择……

Devil's Advocate: We need Google (and others, excluding Oracle) to continue being a powerful megacrop until it successfully lobbies the U.S. Government to allow free reimplementation of APIs. Even Google has lost the Oracle lawsuit, but the only reason that projects like Wine is still being able to survive is due to the power of these corporations. If APIs cannot be reimplemented freely, the entire foundation of FOSS may be outlawed in the future. Change me mind.
