Selling it the Prosus killed it, they don’t have a clue about it and how it should work. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_Exchange 1. LLMs don’t blame you when you ask for book recommendations or say “you must use…
Why I have the gut feeling, that this is good for us? Not saying I understand contracts at all. I read about contracts being complex and adding implementation defined behavior. I don’t want that! C++ needs #secure and…
I need default security with a #secure and #insescure. Not adding more stuff. So I get security, legacy compatibility and the existing flexibility.
300 and it still fails to render 16:10 The aspect ratio of the MacBook. And the ThinkPads.
Aluminium is not build quality. It makes lying stuff inside cheap. And feels horrible on skin contact. The good ThinkPads with Magnesium feel much better (both for hand and lap) and are lighter. And the complicated…
I agree on the second point. I assume we all know that this weird EU free market religion is harmful. The EU would be 1000% better for us, without the economy stuff it was originally build upon. Free markets are…
I’m thankful for the STF. Germany is one of the few countries doing something. But it is not strategic software-development. * They don’t employ software-developers. No safety for the developers. No control over…
My boss. Generates entire websites with AI Slop. Instead of sending a single text mail with three links and the words please make that certificate. No. He wastes the time of all personnel. Wastes energy. And hides the…
I see usually two options: a) Solution X does it generally better than Y and their solution is *ported*. b) Adapt to solution Y. The end. Most of the time it is b. Because Vim shall not be Emacs. Linux shall not be…
And TUIs * Are simple to grasp for uses * Efficient to use (not just resource wise) * Look nice on nice terminals Notcurses (C++) and Ratatui (Rust) did help ncurses (C) a lot.
Reading from Wikipedia Spirit sounds like a horrible low-cost Airline like Ryanair. Why should we rescue something which hurts employees and passengers? If it would be TWA or PanAm my reaction would be positive.
Are they just “against” or is there a currently required set of applications which cannot migrate to Gtk3 or Gtk4? Even Gimp is using Gtk3. And already heading to Gtk4. Take that already with a smile ;)
No. It is using a central “well known server” and requires internet. Test: * Does it work in an airplane? * Does it work in a submarine? * Does it work in the mountains, when a thunderstorm is approach and you need to…
I wonder about the sadly. Luckily the hang was deterministic.
I’m still surprised how people ignore Meson. Please test it :) https://mesonbuild.com/ And Mesons awesome dependency handling: https://mesonbuild.com/Dependencies.html…
The last competitor remaining is Lenovo with the ThinkPads and pre-installed Linux [1]. But even Lenovo cripples them: * You need to be very careful. Select alwaysCTO build with the best available display. But even…
Tenth of millions of devices were sold (somewhere between 20 to 35 Million?). You could build multiple plants for it, with government funding in Europe. The MBAs at Apple noticed: * Big size is a status symbol in Asia.…
No compact smartphone. Apples MBAs produce just more slight variants of the same phone. The Google Pixel 10a is superior, same chassis with flat camera. The Pixel 10 doesn’t suffer a camera bump. At least a step in the…
What I don’t like about FaceID is the premature unlocking. If you pass your phone to someone else it can unlock, especially for taking photos. And to allow strangers to make photos is intentional that’s why the camera…
It looks nice. Less nice but very good in Germany is DWD Warn Weather: https://apps.apple.com/de/app/dwd-warnwetter/id986420993?l=e... Yes. We pay for it with taxes! And again with our money in the App Store. But the…
No. Every man page is better, concise, easy to access. GNU Info should be like a browser but it makes something simple into something complicated.
Thank you! I assume “didn’t train” is correct. Probably my favorite mistake! I like it when people point out mistakes, give me corrections, and explain why. The reason is crucial. Maybe “hadn’t trained” is even better.…
I’m rather sure *Airbus* will prefer a programmer which reads and writes reliable code. The programmer which delivers useful products is probably hired by Microsoft? Or worse, Boeing. Or Toyota. Some NTSB people or…
I’ve learned about that website only four years ago. It is still helpful, teaches me how to install front derailleurs properly (as deep and far to the front as possible, better chain line with less trimming and better…
