Wait are you saying Linux broke user-space? I've completely missed this and would like to know more, may I be so bold as to request a link?

I think I might be the one to expect too much on second thought. Making a language and a game is one thing, making a good language and a good game is something else entirely. Very few people can do either of those on their own, let alone bo

Holy cow the diversity of skill sets required to do this is insane. I'll be very impressed at any Devs who takes this on solo.

Clippy was pretty universally hated back in it's day though. The way it just refused to let you do anything without it's help was annoying. People complain about getting AI shoved down their throats. Clippy was worse in this regar

I wish other countries would take it this seriously. Somewhat ironically, Iceland might be the country best suited by nature to handle the cold that would descend upon the Nordics if the gulf stream collapsed. At least they have plenty of v

I think we're comparing different things. While you appear to be talking about financial size, I meant in terms of technical capability. Financially, yes. American companies are obviously larger. How else would they be acquiring all th

I feel like this sentiment comes at least partially from American companies(especially Microsoft) habit of buying successful European tech companies, making people believe they're American and not European. There is plenty of European

Worst I've ever seen was a bathroom that didn't have walls! Well, there was this hip-high divider wall, barely enough to hide my cheeks while I took a shit. Forget about masking sounds and smell. I generally enjoy eye contact with

I've seen it happen to short, well written articles. Just yesterday there was an article that discussed the authors experiences maintaining his FOSS project after getting a fair number of users, and if course someone in the HN comments

The problem here isn't resisting those forces, that's all well and good. The problem is the vast masses falling under Turing's Law: "Any person who posts a sufficiently long text online will be mistaken for an AI."

I very much doubt it. Never seen an AI consistently miss capitalising the first letter of each sentence for example. The style is efficient in a way that just screams software dev to me. AI's are needlessly verbose. This guy is borderi

I dont particularly enjoy red bulls drinks, but their ads are often cool enough to be considered content. It's probably the only company with ads that are more enjoyable than their product.

GP has a point tho. The article ranks vista over XP, and that's just ludicrous. Even Microsoft has admitted that vista was hot garbage. It's even become a slang expression: a app can have a "Vista moment", meaning they r

from the outside it looks like a defense mechanism from a group of developers who have been suffering crusades against them ever since a very prolific c developer decided rust would be a good fit for this rather successful project he create

I find the take a quirk in how the state of the art assistive technology works is reason for privacy fear mongering to be tired, unimaginative, and typical of today's journalism that cares more for clicks than reporting fact. It's

Would be an interesting experiment actually: how long would it take for the community at large to discover a backdoor in graphene OS if added sneakily by generally trusted Devs, ie the org that maintains it. Or, phrased differently, how muc

You're getting downvoted, likely for prudish reasons, but in all seriousness it doesn't seem unlikely that you're right. The porn industry has historically been very quick to adopt new technologies, it's easy to see how

I actually kinda think ai will help with this, in a roundabout way. I think of AI as a kind of floor, a minimum required skill to be able to get a job as a professional anything. If you want to find paid work as a developer, you have to at

Only problem is, fiat is better at most of the "good-natured" crime too. The only application I can even think of where cryptocurrency is actually better than fiat is ransomware. Actually I suppose any kind of ransom payment might
