> ability to switch jobs easily that's a funny way to write 'willingness to act collectively with fellow workers'
While I agree with your point, if you're going to critique law enforcement this only goes halfway: In the US, the idea of the publicly funded law enforcement officer can trace its lineage back to antebellum slave…
Carbon emissions aren't the only impact humans have on the environment. As one other commenter pointed out, the further humans sprawl the more we encroach on wildlife habitat. This trope of environment === greenhouse…
> Chromium is...vendor neutral. That's pretty misleading. When you want to sync state across Chromium installs, you use a Google account, and that's really just scratching the surface. Chromium comes with quite a bit of…
The trick is declining to sign them, provided you have enough tact to do so in a way that doesn't signal that you're hard to work with in general.
Judging off Glassdoor reviews, most of their devs are embedded ('forward-deployed' in their militaristic lingo). From that and my own short interview experience a few years ago, a lot of their revenue comes from bespoke…
This retconned history of the mistake that's popped up in the last few years is bizarre. No one thought this at the time. Bush tripped over his words all the time. It's much more likely that than a calculated move (that…
I get the impression you're over-simplifying this and grasping for whatever assumption you need just to try to make your point. While some of us have run with my oversimplification, there are plenty of comments in this…
This is reading more and more like you're begging the question. One of the sibling replies that predates this comment by a quarter of an hour already addresses your specific missing connecting dot here. Not to mention…
Everyone replying answered this, I'd just like to point out that the answer to 'could you elaborate a bit more' is to read the parent article. Another excerpt: > In 2013, the GSA Inspector General traced a similar…
This entirely misses the forest for the trees. And granted the author's bias gets in the way of his attempt to point out that forest. Their bias aligns with mine, but with less editorialization IMO the following would…
True for me as well, similar setup (amdgpu, not nouveau, except at work). The only time FF 'crashes' is when I update while it's running, and even then it gracefully degrades and lets me know I have to restart it. With…
In the financialized world we live in rent seeking should be the top of the list.

It's sort of a convenience fee. I agree with your App Mafia take but my guess is folks that can't be troubled to use F-Droid probably weren't going to donate in the first place. For instance, D-Sub is available for free…
Lol pretending like Harper wasn't at the front of the pack right next to Blair hopping on the coalition of the willing
Re-reading it it sounds like it swung from fastcgi because Apache didn't have PHP support, to mod_php, and back to fastcgi (FPM) because Apache had poor concurrency support. It no longer does, but from someone who has…

An alternate POV: you can sell boutique software as a means of getting paid to do initial iterations on an idea while simultaneously building out an impressive set of logos to slap on your site when you release an…
Github's rep is probably worse than Google's.

Seriously. Ask some Athabascans about how extricable tar sands oil is.
A fair point, and I don't have a silver bullet. But wherever we talk about markets optimizing utility we need to acknowledge that to-date that's purely theoretical, and hand-waving away externalities and the commons has…
