While I truly respect your credentials, I disagree 100% with your conclusion and think DoT will win out. Should be fun to visit this thread in a year, just to see.

Not saying you're wrong, but Walmart acquired Jet 4 years ago. If their current web offering is the end result, I'd say they overpaid by about... 3 billion dollars.

I've used Mint for years. 20/mo for more data than I'll ever use. Not one complaint.

This skips the steps of choosing and installing a JVM, which is a bit daunting. My distro gives like 4 different versions. And worse, some applications only run on certain versions. By default, there is no 'java' command.

I don't understand Java apologists. I'm not saying Java is bad. Quite the opposite, it's one of the most optimized systems to date. But if you cannot admit Java apps are a pain to deploy, or, at least harder than deploying

Author committed the binary, then just removed it in a separate commit. Ouch.

FYI - You're supposed to fill out the license info. I see empties in at least two files in the main repo.

> What a bizarre comment. If they leave, are they your enemy for life then? I'm not sure that's fair. There's a lot of room between friend and enemy, here. When breaking up in a relationship under typical circumstances,

GCP and the little project called 'Android' would probably make Google the leader, by far.

It's not really fair, nor professional, to insult someone for having a different viewpoint than you. Your situation is like many others, and obviously not ideal. The system that you were using was/is blatantly rife with abuse, pl

I'm a big Bowie fan, but this isn't that notable imho. During this time, there were hundreds if not thousands of 'ISP's springing up. Even Kmart of all people had an ISP.

It depends on what you want to support. Browsers for example have been adding intermediates to their cert stores, so if you only want to support known new browsers, you only need to send the server certificate and nothing else...assuming

My company moved from all on prem, to all in AWS. Having used both, I'd much rather go back to on prem. I did architecture, capacity planning, system tuning, deployments, etc. I knew everything about all of them, and treated them as

Did you open a bug? I've opened 3 Evolution bugs over the past few years, and the devs are always helpful. They even changed some behavior that was annoying to me, which made me wonder if I was in fact the only user...

And I'm saying it's all fooey. A real 'oracle' in a free market would have pulled out in January. The government is not going to let the airlines fail. To be clear, I'm not insulting or saying I know better than B

But that's now impossible to know. Any bailed out company by definition had no immediate future. Yet here we are.

Apparently Buffet isn't afraid of the printer, which is massively disrupting what should be a bear market.

Great news! Now they should find new stewards for .org, since PIR/ISOC have shown they cannot be trusted to do the right thing.

It sounds like a good plan, but I can't see it working here. USA in general has strong individualism, I guess it's called. Basically the idea of look out for yourself, and screw everyone else. It's why you still can't

It's very weird to me rich Nigerians can abuse the system, but poor South Africans are rejected as 'African American' altogether due to the color of their skin. Honestly, US race dealings are a cancer, I would move anywhere

On top of all of this bad behavior... I did try Snap to install Opera browser. Opera is written such that you need to put widevine libs in a certain directory for it to work. After tons of hacking and Googling, there is zero way to inject

Just download Ubuntu, or Fedora. Both have great hardware support baked into the live image. Boot from the USB drive, and test all your hardware. There's absolutely zero cost or headache to you, outside of the 10 mins or so it takes

How is SF considered above average in bread? Is it due to all the golden wheat fields rolling through Silicon Valley? I jest of course, but seriously, all regions have a ton of variety of breads and bakeries. Even tiny podunk towns you wo

Same here. Truth be told, I likely wouldn't be a programmer today if not for BASIC. My first exposure to programming as a kid was actually a COBOL book, explaining how to punch cards. Didn't get far there. Bought a C++ book an

Good reply...but the real question is why has nobody stepped up to replace it? Close quarter communication is only becoming more prevalent, why do we live with a broken standard?

Nice! Your ISP is good, too. Mine bounces me at least 4 or 5 times before actually going towards the destination.

And that's why most American programmers hate H1B. It's not about filling jobs that we don't have the skill for, it's about filling jobs that companies don't want to spend money on. Offer a half mil a year, and wa
