You win.
I’m glad you think highly of your poetic abilities, but I have no desire to engage in that pointless argument. Edit: and yes.. uh comment deleted as charged, since you had edited after I replied.

I’m amused that a number in this thread saw these observations as a “diss”... that’s more on you then me. I didn’t pass any value judgement on these differences, merely that they exist and demonstrate some fundamental…
I don’t think that is an indictment of the moderation system. You can’t replace a dead community with excellent moderation. Slashdot’s dead because it failed to produce worthwhile content and not be an even uglier pile…

Old 78 records were produced with equipment from recording to cutting and pressing that is long since obsolete. Even if you overcome the challenges of dealing with laser equipment (dust, tracking).. what extra…

This is about C, not C++. Though I haven’t been there in years, I chuckle to think what would have happened if you made this mistake on that news group.
You have no evidence to back this claim up, because it’s not true.
Um.. no it wasn’t. Git was a complete trash fire on Windows when GitHub was founded for one. I started using git when I was working on embedded Linux professionally in 2005, witnessing the whole bitkeeper saga. I am…
My guess, probably because they’re idiots. “ A lightweight, standard publish/subscribe mechanism should be identified; possibly something like MQTT (which would have the added benefit of allowing for network-wide…
I mean git is wildly popular because of GitHub, and probably that was something to do with it in the Rails community... a community that if anything is culturally the opposite of the kernel dev community (or at least…
Love that it was a “hacker” rather than a bored teenager or some casual idiot, or even a disgruntled former or current employee. Invoking the hacker term I guess is supposed to make it absolve gross negligence in even…
Have they really though? iOS has always shared the same underpinnings as OSX. Although much hyped with Big Sur, iOS features have dribbled into OSX since at least Lion (more than 10 years ago). They’re still distinct…

No idea what you’re talking about. There was the run up to the communications decency act and obscenity prosecutions but these were far more risky for the peddlers, not the consumers (and some were prosecuted). There…
Names are not copyrightable in any case. You mean trademark.
It never did. The difference is that you can use logical replication since 10 to prevent downtime during upgrade. Which if you were using it a year ago could have been done.
The point with referring to a review article/meta is that you are free to look at the references themselves. Adverse effects secondary to dissociation can obviously be troublesome for some using in a professional…
I thought the “beauty” of Bitcoin is that it is free.. unshackled, unregulated. So in your mind how is that not an open invitation for powerful and well funded interests to manipulate it? I think the simpler question is…
