  • For example, my great grandfather’s sister’s grandson was on the USS Thresher when it imploded. What would his relation be to me?

    So your first common ancestors are your great great grandparents, so that’s third cousin, and they’re a generation older than you, so once removed. Third cousin once removed. EDIT: This was incorrect, it’s second cousin once removed since that person would be OP’s parent’s second cousin. See the replies below.

    On that note, what do you call your grandparent’s sibling, vs your great grandparent’s sibling, and so on? Again, Google isn’t being very helpful here.

    Grandparents’ siblings are you great aunts/great uncles, additional generations back you add more greats, so great grandparents’ siblings are your great great aunt/uncle. After a while people say “twice great” etc









  • Not sure this qualifies as insane. Seems more like a self-defense maneuver to me. People have harassed and stalked this man to an absurd degree over features they wanted and bugs that bothered them that in some cases only existed in forks like Swanstation.

    This is on top of this guy working a full time job. He can do what he wants and give away free code to the world on whatever terms he sees fit.

    Basically, he got too famous and entitled assholes started treating him like a public slave.

    It sucks and I’m sad to see him turn the project away from a true FOSS license, but I’d rather he contribute public code than not.
