Pyrasite. When you have a running python app that is behaving oddly and you can't replicate the bug elsewhere, you can run python code inside the running process - without any preparation beforehand - to display stack trace, output var

So you think running some script on my machine is preferable to running a container? If I don't like having Rust around, with containers I can just remove it. With script - yeah, maybe, with some digging for correct parameters and assu

One benefit: one could install latest version of Rust on any distribution. Debian stable for instance usually lags behind (with good reason, but still...). I imagine it is mostly useful for checking out Rust though, not for normal use.

If I understand correctly, MS was found guilty of abusing its monopoly by bundling IE with OS, which has put other browsers to disadvantage. The way I see it, the only trouble with the case was that it was too late. By that time IE has alre

Isn't Chrome app a standalone app which doesn't run inside Chrome browser, but instead only uses its engine? I don't know anything about security or privacy implications of using this tech though, anyone care to comment?

Well, Linux did beat them, in two important segments, server and mobile (if you count Android as Linux). They still have enough market share for comeback though.

Great, lots of new features. But the crucial thing for me is still marked "wontfix": allow saving to external formats directly. I often open some png or jpeg, edit it and want to save it. But no, I have to export it, confirm that

Ok, we seem to have different approaches... :) I understand your position, I just think other (deterministic) solutions are safer (meaning: less likely to cause trouble). I know it is easy to be smart now that we know what happened, but I t

Mac addresses should be unique; at least for network cards. The address space of 48bits is not that small. Also, see the warning about entropy in your linked article. There is a difference between mathematical random() and CS random().
