Assuming that other plugins depend on ACF (which I get the impression is a thing?), automattic can probably argue that the use throughout the code is for compatibility reasons. There's also probably interactions with the GPL licenses (

The two baseline criteria I have for better-than-LaTeX options are: 1. Maths support equal to or better than amsmath 2. LaTeX-style macros Both are needed to make writing large amounts of complex equations acceptable. There should also be s

I believe so, but it would presumably depend on what features you use.

There's also Cython. I would guess also that HPy would replace the includes of `Python.h` that pybind11 et al make in order to bind to CPython, and so existing extensions should be easier to port?

That's assuming a certain type of program is the one you're writing (naturally everyone wants a browser that is bug free and un-exploitable). Not every program talks to the network, not every program handles untrusted data, and no

If stuff was removed, then I would have expected them to bump the ABI? As they haven't done that, I would actually assume it would work absent evidence to the contrary?

What is the difference between this and and the approach taken by eggs/buildout (other than the time difference, and so some changes in APIs)? My impression (having never used buildout) was handling multiple versions made debugging har

Oh, I get the flow. Only what I'd seen previously is the cups-browsed PPDs only last as long as the source is around (which again, is what I'd seen previously, but I haven't verified the code to see when the cleanup happens,

Uh, how? Unless somehow it stays around even though you've left the network (which I didn't think happens, but I could be wrong), this lasts just as long as the mDNS attacking server is on the network? This to me feels like the au

No money flows from mozorg to mozcorp (the non profit can't give money to the for profit), and mozcorp develops Firefox. Mozorg is supposed to do advocacy, but it seems MYOB is better at it than Mozilla, and more effective too.

Why though? Rather than using your own bespoke graphics system (requiring the user to separately configure it) and your own custom DNS server (as opposed to the system one), you could just use the OS. That is all part of the definition of

Autoconf is easy, it's the highly bespoke build systems that someone thought would be a good idea that require the right phase of the moon that are the challenge.

I believe tensorflow does remove old pre-releases (I know other projects do), so that number I think might be fairly static? That tensorflow is that big isn't surprising, given the install of it plus its dependencies is many gigabytes

Also, this is very much assuming that the code is both C or C++ and that LLVM is the right compiler to use. Fortran is still a major part of the ecosystem, which the Zig compiler isn't going to solve. There already exists numerous opti

I never really got mosh working nicely with the VPNs and ssh jumphosts I needed to use. I would say vim is excellent over high latency connections, as you can slow down your typing and plan movements and queue up commands. Readline's a

Over what timeframe do you expect this to happen? It'll take at least 10 years for a new default on all systems (which is a challenge in of itself) to propagate to the point where you could rely on it. There's also the question of
