This does not align with my experience. I off 3rd street, right by the La Cienega where significant looting occured. I intentionally walked outside while looting/vandalism was occurring and there was absolutely no police presence whats

Objectively - how is this advocating for violence? I have not been following this deeply but it seems like there is already serious violence occurring where dozens of people have been charged with probable felonies and buildings have been s

"Docker" is just the userspace component of a Linux kernel feature. "Docker" doesn't run anything, the kernel does. Podman has three main advantages over docker: Not needing to run as root, not requiring a daemon in

The problem is that politics are so corrupt/inefficient in the US that the projects go 4x over budget/time with no consequences for the politicians/bureaucrats/contractors who let things like this happen. Just look at th

Without HiDPI support lots of applications become useless when you use a HiDPI display. Even Steam does not respect HiDPI settings in Gnome 3 even when setting custom environment variables.

As far as I can tell this is a proposed patch to the Linux kernel to enable accelerating a completely proprietary user-space API. I personally do not think this is acceptable because only Microsoft can verify that the kernel is working as e

People should never be allowed to claim suffering from political speech. It is that simple in my opinion. Yes, this legally allows Nazis to hold rallies outside of a synagogue. However, in practice this rarely happens, and is arguably a ben

WeWork is a terrible idea because it has no advantages over Regus/Industrious except for yoga-babel and a much higher valuation. It is akin to valuing Ford at 10x General Motors because Ford has a yoga instructor as CEO

With ReasonML and other ML languages the type system is advanced enough to make many error conditions unrepresentable in the type system, and therefore the bugs move from runtime to compile time. Typescript has slowly been making its type s
