As a non-native English speaker myself, I've known about GIMP the software years before I was familiar with "gimp" as an insult. It's kind of like Git, an odd British insult that we in the free software community know as

For me, it comes down to what's usable to do my work. Today, I can pick a regular Windows laptop and have a decent experience with it on Linux, whereas with FreeBSD it is likely that WiFi/BT won't work, GPU acceleration might

While true, Erlang is a dynamic language, which has its own problems. Go's concurrency builds on CSP and they're open about it, but it is not just about who came up with it but who made it mainstream and for that Go certainly dese

I wonder if that could actually be hindering its adoption. I think the 'kitchen sink' C++ style is not so popular anymore.

It is worth mentioning that things like National Security Letters exist in the US. It is also the US who made Apple back off of encrypting iCloud backups E2E. I wish we were more willing to cite our own government(s) as the bad actors here,

Docker is definitely a 'good enough' frontend for containers in that it did a lot to make them more accessible, hence why it tops that survey, (presumably). This can be quite separate from Docker being a security nightmare at the
