Apache Kafka is an open source event streaming tool that transports tons of data w/ low latency. And @Gerard_K_Hynes wrote a handbook to show you how it works. He covers its core concepts, how to use its CLI, & how to install + build a project with it. freecodecamp.org/news/apache-ka

Over the past few weeks you, the community, have made your voices heard. And we’ve listened. OGL 1.0a will remain untouched AND the entire SRD 5.1 is now available under a Creative Commons license.🧵 spr.ly/60113jcGR

I want everybody to remember this whenever anybody claims that taking a stand as a community doesn't accomplish anything. WE did this. 👇 This is fucking incredible.

This is what decades of failure to provide safe cycling and walking infrastructure looks like.

"They won...and so did we." Absolutely pants on head statement throughout this thing. I feel for whomever had to write it, presumably toning down whatever truly absurd statements corporate wanted in there.

Let me be clear on one thing; Until we see the actual legal document of the revised OGL, this is just PR. "We would never" means nothing if the contract says "We can". I got a lot more to say about the supposed changes, but Twitter isn't the right place for it.
