Yes. Certainly the First Nations have generally agreed on this.

Considering that CentOS Stream represents the between state of RHEL minor releases, it's not "randomly". That said, the CentOS Kmods SIG generates reports on how the kABI churns in CentOS Stream[1] and RHEL[2]. [1]: https:&#

This 100%. I love PostgreSQL, but I rolled out MariaDB for my personal servers because I like not spending time doing weird things for upgrading the database software.

Btrfs is particularly special as the inode limit is per subvolume, so it's quite easy to have an impractically huge number of them with some cleverness.

English passive voice construction is inverted similar to Japanese. It's just OVS vs SVO. I've never really thought of programming languages in passive voice before, but it explains why I've increasingly written and spoken in

There are no cross-platform WebKit based browsers anymore anyway. When QtWebKit was eliminated, the last remaining ones switched to QtWebEngine (Blink/Chromium). For there to be effective competition, there needs to be WebKit based bro

It's a Microsoft thing. "Secured-core" PCs are becoming a thing, and Lenovo selling primarily to businesses became one of the first. If you haven't seen it yet from other OEMs, you will soon. :(

At one point, I would have agreed with you. But Microsoft and Intel have been strong-arming implementations to reduce or eliminate user freedom over the past few years. It's been a sad state of affairs.

There's a sad irony that WebKit isn't really available to the KDE/Qt ecosystem anymore. The engine that came from KDE is no longer available for use in the KDE platform.

It still applies even if the chef in question creates their own restaurant. This is literally how startups are born. Here in CT, a lot of pizza places are spun up by pizza people leaving a pizza place and creating their own.

Since ISA collections affect ABI in RISC-V, getting an agreement of the baseline for RISC-V ISA for Linux-based systems was extremely difficult. On top of that, the ABI stabilization work couldn't begin until the required ISA extension

Nobody really wanted to integrate RISC-V support anywhere while the ISA and ABI was unstable. That only really got finalized last year, so I am not surprised that it took this long.

You underestimate how big of a change Python 3 actually was . Changing how strings and bytes are handled has a huge blast radius. It broke almost every library or application I worked on. Everything else was peanuts to that semantic change

Depends on the executive. I usually got a variation of "go do it NOW, while also fixing all the bugs and add features at the same time".

Perl's behavior was utterly broken. It worked more like how a C/C++ compiler handles language standards (by lying to you) than actually enforcing behaviors. From the toolchain and language developer side, nobody liked Perl's
