But why would the US destroy NordStream? There was no gas flowing through the pipeline anyway. Ukraine is already winning the war. European states are already looking to buy gas from anywhere but Russia And finally,…
The problem is that C++ is full of so called "zero-cost-abstractions" that are only zero cost if you ignore: 1. Compile time 2. Non-optimized builds Stuffing everything into the Standard Library using lots of template…
Most lost books weren't lost because they were burned. Ancient manuscripts were usually written on Papryus, which does not last very long. So only the ones that were repeatetly copied survived.
Also capacitive touchscreens. The resitive ones of older Smartphones wouldn't have worked for the revolutinary UI
It's not that weird, but I stopped eating meat during lent a few years ago. I'm not religious, but here in Austria, many non-religious people abstain from something during lent (sweets, alcohol, cigarettes...), so I…
Most people don't use Bitcoin, and most who use it (from what I see), just want to sell it at a higher price than they bought it. Only a minority of Bitcoin users use it for anything practical like payments.
I think one of the biggest problems of Wayland are the "non standard, but kind of necessary" extensions. E.g. screencapture. Does Wayland support screencapture? Yes (kind of), but I can't write a Wayland screencapture…
I'm not from the USA, but if I can choose if the USA, or China gets my data, I will choose the USA everytime. Sure, America does a lot of shady stuff, but the situation in China is just way worse in pretty much every…
Where I live (Austria), Facebook messenger does not have the same reach as Whatsapp. Pretty much everyone with a Smartphone has Whatsapp, but there are lots of people without a Facebook Account. These are mostly older…
Ah yes, the typical problem of Open Source applications, especially ones without a company behind it. The implementation of the actual sync is pretty good (I never had a problem with it). But, the UI is not intuitive at…
Yes you can, but if you do that you have to release the Object files and make it possible for the customers to link them to their own Qt version. This is a much greater hassle than just linking dynamically, so we don't…
Nothing is wrong with the LPGL version for us. Static linking would be nice sometimes, but really necessary. My point is that my company would be willing to pay for Qt (and it did pay in the past), but not that much. In…
That's because most users don't actually need the distributed part of git. For most projects the sanest solution is to have a single master repository that all users pull/push from/to. IMHO the only real advantages over…
Does this argument really work? Nobody says that Facebook has a monpoly in everything they do. They say that they have a monopoly in a very specific area, which should be enough for antritrust lawsuits. I'm pretty sure…
They could just specify that the module/import statements need to be at the top of the file (excluding comments). Most people will do this anyway. Then the build system only needs to parse comments and module…
Not really. You can't wrap a translation unit that uses a 3rd party library into a module. That means every other translation unit that uses this unit also can't be a module and so forth.
Popcorn time was popular because it was way better than any of the legal alternatives. You just had to open it, type the name of the movie/series and you probably could start watching. You could also do this in the…
I actually like the bad design of the reddit mobile site, but not for a reason reddit will like. I used to have the Reddit is Fun app installed, which works really well. The problem was that I spent way too much on time…
There are loads of products that I would consider classical monopolies in tech. E.g. Youtube/Facebook/Android/Whatsapp. Sure you could use one of the alternatives, but then you won't get the…
Yes, in my expericen they all kind of do. This doesn't mean that you won't find recipes from a foreigen cuisine in them. Most of them are however adapted to the cuisine the book is from. Sometimes it's a recipe that is…
That's because HDDs and SSDs are actually very different on the inside. They do roughly the same, but just because a company is good at manufacturing HDDs does not mean that it can also produce good SSDs.
