   I am mainly a dotnet developer but even I think that if you already have a team full of Java developers there is little to gain from switching to C#. Just the effort of learning a completely new set of libraries and frameworks would give me

   Another benefit of this is that my ad-blocker still works with these apps and that you can always fall back to default browser behaviour like opening a link in a new tab.

   Carbon capture isn't real (as advertised). If you take green energy out of the supply to capture carbon, a carbon producing power plant will have to make up for it. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJslrTT-Yhc

   I am fully prepared for a far-right hellhole with little to no moderation in the name of free speech.

   The EU is now once again protecting me from Mr. Musk. I am so happy to be an EU citizen.

   Is anyone really surprised? The list of things announced by Elon Musk that actually where delivered as described by him is awfully short.

   I don't think that is a good example, nothing is stopping you from using a different browser or operating system to keep using your preferred application after development is shutdown. If you are self-hosting these avenues are still op

   Bronze has a lower melting point compared to Iron making it much easier to work with. I think you also have to invent charcoal first to reach the temperatures necessary to melt iron ore.

   Let me introduce you to the magical concept of public transport.

    Yes, that actually sounds reasonable. Especially if you also account for the deaths caused by reckless driving.

    How much traffic can you expect on that road? I rode on similar roads and it was actually quite nice.

    Are you blocking cookies by default? Quite often your consent is saved in a cookie. There is of course also the possibility that the website operator is hoping that you get so annoyed that you consent to tracking sooner or later.

    The GDPR in no way requires cookie banners, that is the choice of the website you visited. Cookies required for functionality of a website do not require consent, privacy invading tracking cookies on the other hand do.

    Oh good, I will give it a try in that case. I just found a couple of issues and a merge request that was later reverted so I assumed the dependency was still there.

    The Android app seems to require google play services. Quite ironic for an app that wants to give me back control of my data. I think this defeats the purpose of the app if I take steps to reduce my dependency on google services I might as

    You could try to use VS Codes Live Share Extension and share you desktop using the video conferencing software of your choice.

    Don't forget, to the CEO and their cronies you are all just peons. If they could pay you nothing at all they would absolutely do so.

    You would never reach your destination and at some point you would be stranded in dark space. This kurzgesagt video has some info on this topic.[1] [1] < https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzkD5SeuwzM >

    It is certainly ethically questionable but I don't think it is reasonable to imprison someone for giving a talk at a conference.

    I expected the worst when reading the headline but this is great news. If the EU forces Apple to allow side-loading apps I might actually buy an Apple smartphone.

    Yes, and it is also not an OK thing to do for the start-up. They were just lucky that nobody noticed their licence violations.

    I like C but strongly dislike Go. They share nothing other than having a small(ish) feature set.

    This little discussion got me curious about how hard it actually is to use COM interop with .NET. Using Visual Studio its just a right click on your dependencies, selecting 'Add COM Reference...' and choosing the library you want

    Giving a platform to fascists makes them seem normal and just a quirky alternative to the mainstream. It effectively allows them to easily spread their propaganda. In his book Mark Bray writes: "It’s important to note, however, that th

    I see did not get that from you original comment but please enlighten me on how demanding ethical behaviour from software engineers leads to a eugenics program.

    Are you actually arguing for eugenics?
