It's not "Open Source" (making code public and free to use and modify) that's broken. It's how people rely on it without any consideration about the sourcing of it. It's not that it's free to pick and to u

Parent is talking about the "business of music" which is an entirely different thing. The crux for artists that want to live from their art practice, is to know the difference, accept it, and control as much as they can of the two

Been there. If you haven't do so already, perhaps you could try to experiment within +/- 5/10 minutes, to see where you sleep cycle hits better. It can make a whole lot of a difference.

The "kingdom" as you say it, involves instutions AND people that depend on it, if only, by habit, but also by trust. Be these habit and trust be misplaced or not is not much relevant: a new system just does not have a hint of thes

He critiques decentralized systems taken as an independant solution in general, based on their working principle, not a specific decentralized system.

But... thinking further about it, it doesn't even hold much. NFTs may only be enforceable because of public law which lays out the playground for IP contracts and licenses (the same way the GPL/copyleft needs copyright law to be o

Quite enlightening a quote indeed... I didn't need another reason to dismiss NFTs but here's a political/moral solid one. Also, so much about "decentralization" when it's rather deconstruction towards anarchy.

The article starts with "One of the big knocks on cryptocurrencies is that they’re a technology in search of a problem." and on finishing it... the same conclusion occurs. Not a single possibility listed at the end is more specifi

Don't know what their specific reasons are, but from the obvious "not talking about future features" benefits: 1. removes unnecessary induced expectations pressure from the outside (there's already enough of it), 2. allo

I use it (and loathe it) at work. As for open source projects I might rely on, having a slack but no active mailing-list/forum/async-channel is a sure red flag.

Well, maybe that's pedantic, but reliability has a precise meaning that means hard money through service level agreements. So yes, it's worth it to be specific over the difference between being available and being reliable (== mee

You might want/need to decompose each step in a set of contained smaller behaviors. This is a pattern easier to represent/embed within objects. But you might as well use a library of prefixed functions too.

Actually, you can achieve 100% reliability with any kind or extent of downtime. As long as downtime is expected and bounded, as long as the uptime planned period is actually up, you're at 100% reliability (but not 100% uptime).

That's how most of the internet operated in the 2000's, before SRE & DevOps really took traction (practices were already there somehow, but not pushed to that extent for web sites/apps). And we were not so much worse than

The less formal, the best. Because that's exactly what the intent behind it is: the equivalent of a team's gathering about a cup of coffee/tea/water/anything to discuss/chat about the mood of everyone, and the

Another way which, granted, with En Marche, utterly failed so far (but perhaps does one need several runs for a party to gain a consistent backbone).

You seem to suggest Manuel Valls has also been prime minister under Macron presidency (after having been under Hollande's), which he hasn't. Also, the "neither left not right is also a fascist meme" is both true and misl

From big co's understanding point of view, I think a more sensible option would be that Twitter doesn't look at it, or even cares, as long as it doesn't impact the bottom line.

> People are just too religious. I'm not sure this is strictly a religious matter. It could be rather deeply rooted into the perception of humanity, the human "self" that we have, and the reciprocity of it towards others:

Wait wait wait. How is this kind of video produced? Is the voice recorded/edited first, and then you film an actress that lips sync with it, or is it the other way around? Or has the actress an amazing breath capacity?

There are also a lot of competent managers that are lazy (laziness can be good!) And, worse perhaps, there are a lot of incompetent managers that are NOT lazy. Now, the OP is a specific point of view. It's not unprofessional to have a

Find the root cause. Solve it as it suits you. Stand-ups as such are a band-aid to fix an easy to spot issue, that you may as well resolve in other, non-prescripted way by some methodology: miscommunication within the team. If your team is

It's a tautology: a quitting a game means you don't win it. It works in the specific game context. But you may as well quit one game to join another which has more value for you. Depending on the viewer/commenter's persp

With Banksy, you can get certificates - which are, centralized. With brand t-shirts, you have also trademark/brand permissions (unless you go for copies, but then the value isn't the same either). And, with the two above examples,

Yes, they're collectibles, but at least with collectibles, you have authorized distribution of these. Here with NFTs, only authorized ones would have kind of a reason to reasonably have a market value, which means, trademark law has to

The problem I see with NFT (not blockchains in general) is that, while the token is valued because it's a reference to something specific, there's no authority or enforcement for this reference to be relevant: - you may have a uni
