There are other places than Twitter to read stuff written by other people. Even in the conservative exotic orient.

You don't have the right to patronize a restaurant that gets shut down for health code violations after it's shut down. There's no difference in principle here. Banning Twitter itself for failing to comply with the law isn&#x

Had to click around to figure this out: it’s yet another Linux distribution. Seems to be focused on quality-of-life for Rust developers.

It’s an incredibly bad argument, and anyone making it has no business opining on the situation in a public forum. To understand why, you need to read some history. Start here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_Agreem

This is much closer to the metal of a modern ELF implementation. Linkers and Loaders is excellent for background and covers a wider spectrum, but was something like a decade old at the time this was written.

Not in recent years. They became evil enough that Apple felt compelled to resign membership.

Twitter is bleeding money. Seems likely Musk will use any excuse to shut down ongoing expenses he doesn't think he needs anymore.

Yeah, but Apple didn’t care about WebObjects; it needed an operating system. And OpenStep on PC hardware was slow, crashy, unpolished, and generally much less pleasant to use than the fastest Macs at the time. Apple bought it because it had

The Enhanced IIe and the original IIc also had the 65C02 (at the original Apple II clock speed).

I don't understand this argument at all. It seems to reduce to "shorter, more human-readable hashes mean I can use hashes all the time instead of named branches." Which seems kind of beside the point. You need named branches

IOKit dates to circa 1999; it’s not “modern C++” by any reasonable definition.

Only if people are ignorant of the historical context. These images predate Photoshop by 5+ years.

It’s really not the same thing. Your complaint is about Apple’s complex framework API management, not about the compiler optimization/undefined behavior. Swift frameworks sometimes blur the line the way I think you mean by being able t

Facebook still has the same problems that it did two years ago.

No. NeXTstep circa 1990 was very different from OpenStep in 1994. If this was OpenStep-based it would have a chance. NeXT often provided tools to migrate from one version of the frameworks to the next, so it might be possible to get it ther

This is Elon, who lies perpetually about everything. Absolutely no chance he ends up giving Trump $200 million.

`copy` alone is not a red flag. There are definitely cases where you need to use it for safety -- mutable pair types like property list types, for example. But you can't trust an object like -- for example -- NSWindow to do something s

Sometimes they're right about clarity but I read TFA and it seems fine? The writing seems very clear to me, maybe you have to be a boomer to find it difficult?

TFA misses the entire point of strlcpy, which is to improve security by making your code less prone to common C programmer errors that are known causes of common exploits. The author’s suggested remedies reintroduce the potential for those

Unix's involvement with the development of the Internet was mainly through BSD, which was a UC Berkeley joint, not Bell Labs.

In a very large company like Disney there are often legal data retention requirements from ongoing litigation, which means Corporate Slack might be more complicated than the AT&T customer data breach.

The article here assumes all parties are arguing in good faith, and that both sides have a reasonable starting position, or at least something that approaches one. But it's not possible to engage in good faith with the extreme sides of
