I am always aghast at how proudly people pronounce that they don’t know how to use one of the most central and essential tools in the belt of a software engineer. Maintaining history is well worth it, and allows you to…

Git is not nearly as confusing as people make it out to be. They just never take the few hours it takes to understand it. Which is a sad state of affairs for such an essential tool in the belt of any software engineer.…
The JDK is too big for every app to do that, imo.
> I'd rather not hide what I am doing So why are you doing that by sloppyfying your own writing? If you want people to take interest in your writing, it should probably actually be your own writing.

Funny, for me it is exactly the opposite: I can read the actual text very easily, but the “Written in Ghost Text” is barely perceptible to the point I would have completely missed it, if it were not for the comment…
I really do not like that Drew (the owner and developer) is extremely dogmatic and political, and likes to get involved in what is and is jot allowed to be hosted on “his” forge. Imo, service providers should be neutral…

It is a bit buried, but Podman now follows the UAPI Configuration Files Specification as well as the Base Directory Specification. This is great!
It’s one thing to make a passionate speech on the internet. It is another thing to be charged with battery and assault.
Some people like to claim that using a pretty esoteric language with lots of weird footguns, lack of basic features and data types, and spawning subprocesses for everything, is somehow keeping it simple. I do not…
No, you won’t be able to do that, because going online, or even logging into your PC will require ID verification.
Which is a MAJORLY different system than general surveillance of the whole populace.
It does indeed seem like a harsh sentence. Something the article could focus on, instead of being disingenuous.
No he did not. He got the sentence for hiding evidence. The article tries very hard to push an agenda.

There is no inherent added latency. That only applies for the translation layer, when there is no native support.
> You have to build your projects to these specifications, or you will be held accountable! What specifications? Oh, you will have to pay to access them. This is essentially a protection racket. Ludicrous.
Last time I checked (a few years ago), you had to pay some ridiculous price (230$ iirc) to view the SQL specification. SQL!
All the more reason to support it. There are lots of ISPs that only assign you an IPv6, and do hacky trickery to make IPv4 work over that. We wouldn’t need all of this.
