This is equivalent to say a couple years old Ford F-150 is a truck from 1975. The branding is the same, the shape is similar, but it ain't the same plane. Super Hornets are still being produced, upgraded and improved and will probably

The Hydro Quebec plants are near the arctic. Some of them are near the tundra line (where trees suddenly stop growing and lichen takes over). Don't expect much rotting that far north. It will take centuries to even start to rot. Also d

This issue has been fixed for good. If you need uptime, then virtualization is good enough. You can migrate VMs to other hosts on moment notice. As long as the failure isn't sudden, then you probably have enough time to migrate the VM

So true. A few weeks ago my TI v200 battery died and I went looking to "modernize my algebra workflow" (usually limited to multi parameters `solve` or `simplify` operations or matrix math). I never heard of Maxima (and never went

Well, 3.5 was released in 2012, that's a long update span. Sorry if you were unlucky enough to hit both updates in a row. However note that there isn't as much breaking changes to the API this time around. Most of them just prin

It was the default editor of the Apple (NeXT) Darwin UNIX distribution. Given how much effort they have put in this list in the last 15 years, I guess it just wasn't curated much unless legal said to do so.
