Java is swell and all, but having seen how the vendor treats even their large customers, I could never in good conscience recommend them to anyone I do business with. Better to miss out on the latest features and work…
more efficient than what? I loathe this marketing speak.
All Operating Systems suck. Linux sucks less for things I care about, and has done for a long time - much longer than 7 years for my purposes. I too am required to use a Windows machine for work, which seems to get…

The child predators are not stalking the adult forums. They're in the "for kids" ones. This "protect the kids" nonsense needs to be called out for what it is - a sham.
Microsoft has long been a company where the left hand and the right hand are not well coordinated. It'll be interesting to see if they can reconcile the "everything must be AI" mantra from the executives with the…
I concur.
I always wondered if it would be feasible to make the headlights produce polarized light (e.g. vertical), and have windscreens filter out that polarization... I guess it would only work if the scattering of light off of…
I guess Scumbag College's University Challenge performance must have edged them out.
Funny to see Emacs with a Y for small... one of the humorous expansions of "Emacs" I once read was, "Eight Megs And Constantly Swapping", alluding to how bloated it was perceived to be.
There's not really a standard definition of an AI PC, but if there's anything beyond marketing, it would take the form of a neural processing unit, which supposedly makes some AI-related task fast by providing hardware…
It's long gone the time people should stop doing business with Oracle.
Exactly. Much of the discourse around this topic has described ideal testing and deployment practise. Maybe it's different in Silicon Valley or investment banks, but for the sorts of companies I work for (telco mostly)…
> the situations in which you need to use it are likely cursed. So true, and yet so common.
I used to use it on HP-UX in the 90s.
You forgot all the other prompts that ssh might produce before the password prompt (e.g. add new host to known hosts yes/no). There are more possible prompts than most people realize.
It /was/ nice and quick. Thanks for putting the demo online. It was quick to tell me complete nonsense. Apparently 7122 is the atomic number of Barium.
It would be bad.
I through it would be a nice idea to have lights polarised vertically and screens polarized horizontally... scattered light gets de-polarized so object illuminated by the lights would still be visible through screen,…
In the late 90s I worked for a vendor of CRM software. A fair bit of billing and payment-handling code was written in COBOL. Wasn't mainframe - ran on a couple of flavours of proprietary Unix. The COBOL compiler vendor…
The market economy deserves not one iota of credit for the Free Software I have written (millions of downloads). It was produced and donated to the world in spite of the market economy, not because of it.
ctrl-f linux Nope. >:(
Pico was based on MicroEmacs 3.6. Nano is an open source clone of Pico - there's definite DNA in that series. I'm assuming not in this new Micro, but it's faintly amusing that the name seems to be a play on something…
Software project name DNA. MicroEmacs -> Pico -> Nano -> Micro
I guffawed, and I'm not afraid to admit it.
