As a 20-year user of #ubuntu I find concerning that the page celebrating the 20 years of the OS is full of references to LinkedIn and twitter: what a disconnect between Ubuntu the company and ubuntu the enthusiast user base. The page, the celebration itself even, is then not for non-paying users but for the enterprise-level users that pay. Makes sense, of course – a company needs to pay its bills –, but it is nonetheless an upsetting reminder.
While sending dozens upon dozens of bug reports over the years surely doesn't pay the bills, it is also free labour ubuntu got from me. Fair deal, though: I got a free, stable OS out of it, for 20 years, for all our servers, desktops and laptops.
And the "ISV" acronym (independent software vendor) finally explains why the rise of the snap packages, which as a user I don't want anything to do with – they have consistently brought trouble. Only makes sense, again, from the perspective of an enterprise with bills to pay.

Functional reorganization of brain regions supporting artificial grammar learning across the first half year of life
Infants have impressive auditory learning capabilities, even from the newborn stage. This study provides neuroimaging evidence that both newborns and 6–7-month-olds already learn and detect grammar-like rules, and that the underlying brain networks a…plos.io
Interesting that this study on infant brain development is not done with fMRI but with fNIRS (functional near-infrared spectroscopy [1]). And concerning to read about the complete reliance on software provided opaquely by a company for the analysis: "As all fNIRS data preprocessing was carried out on MATLAB-based toolboxes, no custom scripts are available."
[1] fNIRS measures more or less the same as fMRI: blood flow. "Using fNIRS, brain activity is measured by using near-infrared light to estimate cortical hemodynamic activity which occur in response to neural activity." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function…
Why is it concerning that the analysis relies entirely on Matlab toolboxes?
1. Reproducing the analysis requires access to the exact toolbox with the exact version number. May also have platform dependencies (e.g., outputs slightly different results on macos, linux, and windows).
2. Often the version of the toolbox is not reported. It isn't in this paper.
3. Increased use of the toolbox may lead to price gouging, excluding many who can't afford to purchase it. Besides the unfairness, this impacts the ability of just about anyone to reproduce the analysis from the raw data.
4. After some years the toolbox may not be available at all, for example if the company considers its maintenance a burden with negative returns on investment.
If you are a reviewer or an editor: at the very least demand the reporting of the toolbox version and the operating system version where it was run. And ideally demand enough specification of the algorithms used by the functions provided in the toolbox that an independent reimplementation and reanalysis is possible.
