That's how they presented their argument. It can be presented both ways depending on how you want to promote it.
Yes you're right. Unfortunately while using things for like I keep standing in the poop on the shed carpet.
yes I use it on macOS as well. I'm writing this on my Mac. I am an active independent user group member. This isn't just about startups and big tech who are actually fairly low on seat counts. There are huge numbers…
I wish Twitter was publicly traded right now. I need some excitement in my life.
Google or Russ Cox's reputation is irrelevant. The idea stands alone. I'm merely crediting him with the idea. I read the proposal. There is no discussion of the legality of this at all. I'd expect anyone with any level…
They still are good products. If you stick your fingers in you ears and forget about the bad bits. It's like living in a garden shed which has been painted nicely inside. You can live a happy existence with a bit of…
This place can be quite bipolar. I actually quit HN for a long period over the "second coming of Microsoft" when the entire HN crowd was crowing of Satya's ascent into grand hegemon position because the sycophantry was…
Um, every .Net Core developer I know, which is quite a few at multiple companies, are still doing everything on Windows and Visual Studio classic. Windows is still a massive concern for the tech community and most of…
Ah Rust. I've written a few thousand lines. Nothing major. It feels like it's got the same personality as C++. You know a shit hot weapon that fires the world's most powerful missiles but at the same time makes…
No it's not up for debate at all. Much like when Microsoft did this with .Net core, the Github thread is clearly a misguided post by RSC expecting the community to conform or support it. They didn't so now it's a damage…
I think you're right on the mark there. I'm jaded and cynical enough to know what's going to hurt me and what's going to pay the bills and that's where my interest stops. 20 years of C# and 35 years of Unix now :(…
But is that not the decision of the person who owns the data?
But that's wrong. There is no position for this in a civilised society: "If we ask everyone is going to say no, so we will steal it unless someone tells us not to"
This is an incorrect assertion. We have to ask for permission on our SaaS products to collect this data as it's not necessary to collect it for the product to function. The EU GDPR mandates this. Russ Cox is suggesting…
Imagine if GNU started adding telemetry to their compiler toolchain... If that sounds fucking stupid, which it does, then so does this.
Yes I agree there. They seem to be a PR and marketing company these days with the odd reskin here and there.
It’s not that here. I use iOS because I don’t want anyone embedding several bloated half baked ancient hole ridden security nightmare browser engines in their apps which do everything possible to bypass system wide…
This I can agree with. I was hoping that Apple was going to actually succeed in doing this with iOS but it looks like regulatory bodies are ganging up on them and their motivations weren't entirely honest. They are…
I can't honestly even consider reading this from the vendor in question. I appreciate Firefox and use it on a regular basis but no browser, OS vendor or standard agency out there has an ounce of respect left from me.…
Yeah I know a couple of pilots, one of whom does "flying scum buses" as he calls them to hot places around Europe and have a lot of horror stories. Nothing major: bits of planes falling off, people going bananas, near…
I'd rather have a safe bad experience than a shiny plane crash.
Reading the thread under that suggests I will be starting an airline shitlist effective immediately.
Some localities they are useful and some they get in the way. Emergency ham operation is not always required or welcome. It’s very specific to certain localities.
Then they go and immediately go and shaft you with a set of non-opt-outable welcome emails with Windows 11. I think any credit due can be shoved up their ass.
They're really not. I have two guys unfucking a yarn and NPM shit show at the moment.
