> One of two conditions must then hold: either a) dlopen has legal significance, or b) much of the Linux ecosystem is out of compliance with the GPL because it attempts to use pipe() to circumvent the GPL and this…
> If they're right, though, why should it matter how I use libmysql.so's APIs? Do socket() and connect() make libproprietary.so not a derivative work? Why? I can use an API over a socket too --- and if using an API…
It's not that bad. For a long time ads could only be targeted based on correlations rather than personal information. Ads weren't completely random. You would read a travel magazine targeted at men and there would be…
If you and your friends declare that you are independent of the country you're actually in and stop paying your taxes, then at some point it's reasonably likely that that country would send an agent to your property and…
Isn't that just the same question? The answer is "by the sovereign". If there was a conflict over the right to confine an agent of an Australian government, then whoever wins it is, to some degree or another, the…
Not just the existing nation states who want to reclaim the land, but also anyone else. Maybe Russia will recognise you for free, but no one else will. They will want something out of it. And they will have to believe…
One difference I have noticed is that it used to be when I said "five minute timer" it would maybe ten percent of the time hear "five minutes timer" and decide it should search youtube for matching videos. Nowadays, it…
I used to use a lot of Gtk+ apps, where the menu item was disabled, but all this meant was that it was shown greyed out. In fact, as far as the toolkit was concerned it was still active and still sent a message to the…
To be clear - the conceptual space the software is built around isn't an implementation detail. It's the way you reach your goal; it necessarily imposes a burden on the user. A good conceptual space presses less heavily…
We can keep going. I keep my state in postgres when I'm using Haskell, and I keep my state in mysql when I'm using PHP. It really is a very strange argument.
I think a major problem with it is that it sounds like a porn site. The value of short domains is probably overrated too, a single word is nice but a single letter? so what?
Word 6.0 from Windows 3.11 had a print layout on 800x600. I recall it being presented as new at the time but I didn't have any prior experience to compare it against.
It has been - on my computer at least I have a hard drive with a down arrow on it for save.
But everything is still clickable and swipable. The program still has as many features, but it's not visually complex: we don't show them to you. Want to commit your changes? Just click on the white space about three…
Yeah I feel exactly the same as you. I prefer JetBrains to VSCode because it gives me labelled icons and menus for the things I want to do. It's true, for the things I don't do often sometimes I have to search a busy…
> He remarked that high-density UIs confuse and overwhelm most people, while technical people have developed the skill of sifting through lots of on-screen information and controls. I think part of the problem here is…
If it blocked you until it was finished, then you wouldn't be able to handle a timeout because you would be blocked waiting for it to finish, so you'd have no capacity to realise the task needed to timeout (unless you…
The US doesn't have a minority rule death spiral because of social media, it has a minority rule cycle because the constitution literally entrenches minority rule via mechanisms like senatorial malapportionment,…
Apple and Microsoft generally get their pay from licensing fees rather than advertising fees and are therefore not in competition with news media companies. Reddit has generally been a fairly niche player, although if…
99.9% of consumers probably have never heard about custom ROMs, and I'd reckon 99.9% of consumers who do hear about custom ROMs have boring old fashioned objections like "will it break my warranty" and "if it ain't…
I note your statistic refers to "people" and not "adults". Usually, some proportion of the people of any given country are ineligible to receive a drivers licence on the basis of their age. It seems that age is 17 in…
Much fewer people hear and get offended about the lawsuit vs their benefit from having all the related names/trademark/domain, so it's simply the benefit of obtaining the name/trademark/domain.
> What is left is the added value within Turkey, which has become cheaper because of the Lira drop. Does this follow necessarily? If wage-earners have a fair degree of bargaining power or if wages are indexed, then the…
One of SQLite's strengths is that it's not client-server, so there's no single sqlite server. It is simply not possible to have multiple applications try to use a single sqlite server, because you cannot use what does…
I think the time of a local event sounds much more important, and a photo of a calendar and a clock sounds much more frivolous. Also, you can't take photos of events that haven't happened yet, and it's precisely with…
