From what I’ve read on the discourse it’s not really usable yet. Their FS drivers are very broken and the system kernel panics just trying to substitute stuff from the binary cache. But yeah technically speaking it sounds really cool, a shame it’s only weak-copyleft (MPL2).

No, all I’m saying is that small business owners are on the same side of the class divide as billionaires, so it’s not surprising they resort to the cheapest sloppies solutions and are trying to replace creative people with soulless automation.
“Most of the world” is definitely not petite bourgeois (which is what “middle class” is supposed to mean), neither in the west nor elsewhere. There are only ~36E6 small businesses in the US, many of which share owners and some of which are just shell companies. Even if we assume that every small business was owned by a single person, it’s still only around 10% of the population, in the “most entrepreneurial” country in the west.
No. Owning a business (as in, means of production) makes you a different class — bourgeois — not a class traitor. Belonging to a different class naturally changes what benefits you.
And yeah you shouldn’t automatically hate some petite bourgeois guy, they may be closer to lumpenproletariat than they are to haute bourgeois. But, as long as they own the business, they have a fundamentally different set of goals under capitalism compared to you, a worker.

2015·3 days agoBusiness owners are (generally) not your allies in the class war, no matter how small or large their business is.

Those are all technically words in some dictionary somewhere, arranged in a sensible grammatical order. The entropy is not as high as you may think
