Is this from the original sqlite team?
dfajgljsldkjag•1mo ago
No. I have no clue how they aren't getting demolished by lawyers for trademark infringement in the first place
marcobambini•1mo ago
We are backed by SQLite's author, and we have the full rights to use SQLite in the company's and products' names.
lifthrasiir•1mo ago
No, it's from Marco Bambini [1]. He apparently wrote a lot about SQLite in this very forum as well [2] and this seems to be an apparent continuation of his sqlite.cloud which also has the same trademark issue.

OP: what exactly is this?

SQLite Cloud founder(s), if you're out there: Is this a real company? I'm not quite sure it's legal to use "SQLite" in your company/product name that way - it's trademarked and is implying some sort of connection between you and Hwaci (creators of SQLite).

Hello, SQLite Cloud's founder here. We are backed by SQLite's author, and we have the full rights to use SQLite in the company's and products' names.
a_t48•1mo ago
Ah, neat. Good on you, then - though I'm sure you can see why the company name seemed suspect.

Seriously?

Normally, I hate to comment on things like license, trademark etc. as it is not what I understand deeply nor I think my comments would make any difference since I am not any Lawyer etc.

But really interested in maybe understanding this a little better.

sqllite is in Public domain. From their website 'All code authors, and representatives of the companies they work for, have signed affidavits dedicating their contributions to the public domain and originals of those signed affidavits are stored in a firesafe at the main offices of Hwaci.[1]'

Now if one of the authors is behind this or funding this, how can they still use the domain to a personal benefit? I do not understand that. Does that mean, if I hold on to a good domain hack of something that is highly regarded in public domain will it not be trademark infringement irrespective of whether somebody from that company is behind or not?

marcobambini•1mo ago
Just to clarify a point that seems to come up in several comments: we are backed by SQLite’s author, and we have explicit permission to use “SQLite” in the company and product names.

We believe SQLite on the edge is a major opportunity, and our focus is on building genuinely new features and infrastructure on top of it.

By reading the landing page, I feel vomited on. How is sqlite suddenly an inference engine? Why would I even? What is javascript doing in sqlite? Why any of these things have anything to do with sqlite?
marcobambini•1mo ago
If you don't understand what we are building, that doesn't mean you need to post such an inappropriate comment.
112233•1mo ago
Your site is for people familiar with SQLite. Imagine a person, who knows about vtable, wal, vfs, json1, fts5 and even blockcachevfsd, reading your page. It is between AI slop domain parking and a targeted phishing campaign. The first reaction is either to report scam or block spam. 90% of your comments here do not discuss your project but give assurance sqlite name is not being used unlawfully. Back when it was just vector extension, it at least made some sense, but this new web page is a complete assault on anyone familiar with sqlite internals. Please tune your messaging! Currently your prized "sqlite" trademark is being used like "with a computer", left and right.
