> More than 320,000 people around the world — mainly traders, analysts, and brokers — pay about $24,000 a year each to use the Bloomberg Terminal to access real-time market data, communicate with other users, get the latest news, pull company data, and more.

> Assuming minimal discounting, that would make the terminal a more than $7B business alone.

The numbers do not fit 320,000 * 24,000 is over 700B.

More reliable not more available. It's because programs in userspace can mess with the signal usage, while they can't with the cgroup feezing.

I think you missed some context. They're talking about the differences between sticking with summer time vs sticking with winter time but moving things by an hour (so a 9-5 job would be 8-4). In both cases things would happen at the same solar time.

Basically the convo was:

A: People want to change their clocks to summer time instead of changing their personal schedule

B: They don't want to change their personal time but rather society's time

A: They could just change society's schedule, it's just as easy.

C: Nah, you'd have to change a lot of things, signs, timetables, etc...

You don't have to make it available to the public if you only use it internally. You only ever have to share it with the people who use it. If it's only internally used that means you don't have to share it.

Even if it's externally used that doesn't mean it has to be freely available. If you require a paid subscription to access the AGPLed software then you only have to provide the source to those that have paid for the subscription.
