Your 20 years feels way off. The bulk of the problems (i.e. a decade plus of terrible governance, Brexit vote, lack of investment, self defeating austerity) stem from the votes of a predominantly older generation (yes hashtag not all old pe

Yes, the passion to defend copyright trolling for isEven functions (an example included in the filing) from people here is bizarre. I can't decide if people just hate Microsoft enough that a future where you must pay to include an isev

I agree with you and was saddened to see such a comment rise to the top. I don't hold that GPs opinion is wrong, in fact I have no firm views yet on the AI and would generally lean towards stuff being made available even when harmful.

Same thing happened to us, after a week or so we just had to change subdomain of our login site. No answer was ever forthcoming on the previous domain and the new one remains unflagged months later.

Just to provide more info. There's quite a few now, something like 33 countries with these visas. The terms tend to vary. I took advantage of the first one, the Barbados digital nomad visa which they created to work around the loss of

Hmm, I feel weird reading all this criticism of GQL. It reminds me of when our place switched to it and I was constantly slagging it off until my friend/colleague said "do you actually hate it or you just don't understand it?

God yes, I hate how all FEs have tunnel vision on MacOS nowadays. Our sign-up flow had godawful scrollbars both horizontally and vertically for the longest time but they didn't notice because they're all on retina display Macbooks

I think a strong test a lot of "let's use Google scale architecture for our MVP" advocates fail is: can your architecture support a performant paginated list with dynamic sort, filter and search where eventual consistency isn

Can second this. I'm from a country where gun crime is non-existent for the average person and was visiting a friend in their home country. We were in a bar when firecrackers started going off. I turned and looked and just sort of stoo

This is a slight misreading of my general political position. I am pro-government in general. I find the term "monopoly on violence" to generally indicate someone who lives a very cosseted and easy life who can spend time getting

Interesting that he's said that, I wasn't aware. I think at its root the problem is copyleft is a mirror image of copyright. It relies on and replicates all the cultural and legal requirements and constraints of the copyright mode

It's a good, and thought-provoking, question. First to be flippant the idea of a software developer with that view sounds so unbearably insufferable and full of themselves I hope never to meet one. All code is terrible, be less attache

You're right that it does contradict itself, but the unfortunate situation is that public domain declarations don't work and would make it harder for people to use your code safely in the current licensing model. The closest optio

No, I honestly have no idea. I know nothing about the law and understand even less. I may be wrong about all of this, but if we take the (laughable) idea of justice being blind it stands to reason any precedent that protects a single open s

But why is it immoral? All that code is still out there, if I had the time and the resources I could build a language model. Unlike commons in the real world (e.g. land, fresh water, etc) a code commons is purely additive. With the release

Don't get me wrong, I know this (copyright abolition) is pie-in-the-sky stuff. I'm using an anon account to post because even advocating for it could be troublesome for employment. But I don't accept we have to be meek or hav

Yes they haven't paid it forward, or back, but why fight on the occupier's territory. By calling for legal frameworks to enforce this we accept the language and terms of the dominant party. By using courts and the law and creating

I think we share a lot of the same goals but they presuppose openness based on violence, if you don't do what their license says exactly then they're going to use lawyers and courts and the state's monopoly on violence to mak

I find this whole topic very annoying, this is like the 3rd variation to reach the front page today. But it has made me realize why I instinctively dislike Free Software as a movement. Copyright and licensing are bad, actually. Stop getting

I see your point, I think this is the crux of the matter though: > Sure, it isn't appropriate in many cases I think where low-confidence management comes in is the application of the process without reference to whether the process

I'm not very good at statistics but is it fair to say luck over someone's lifetime would fall into some kind of normal distribution? If you simplify extremely and model the good luck vs bad luck outcome as a coin toss (I think ove

It sounds like SOC2 compliance requirements unfortunately. Plus process overhead on who can raise tickets. I've found compliance makes it harder to write good code. If you get a PR approval with optional suggestions you're heavily

A new grad offer in much of the UK outside London would be up-to $33k USD maybe less though I may be a few years out of date. US salaries are very different and seem strange to (this) non-American(s).

So I think the current/new desktop approach is MAUI, maybe, it's hard to keep track. When evaluating Microsoft/.NET stuff I think the safest approach is to ignore anything they come out with and check back in 4 years to see i
