Wow, i wouldn't have thought that. Since i moved away from Ubuntu to Debian mostly because all this upstart, mir, advertising solo attempts, it's nice to hear that. Now i'm waiting for the same blog post about supporting Wayl

In Berlin last year, you could win a Sony phone by diving into a tank of water and fetch one from the ground. If it was a real one, you could keep it :)

I think you can be pretty sure that no company will buy Lenovo. Not only because it's big and expensive but because it's a chinese company. It's one of chinas gateways into the western market. The government won't let so

I'd be interested in a list of software that Apple and Sony contributed back to FreeBSD and that is in the ports, do you have such a list? It looks like that this is a very asymmetric relationship.

It doesn't explain a thing on why. He just measured the performance of memory access and different caching strategies. From my point of view the "benchmarks" say nothing at all about actual I/O disk performance in virtua

How is it that native is slower then virtual i/o in his tests? I don't get it... if it's only reading some cached data, it's not a real test scenario, isn't it? So i suppose, the host system caches the reads. Also,

Ok, so one thing: Python3 is just now becoming the default for many Linux distributions. Once that adoption took place the adoption of Python3 will increase very much. It's as simple as this. Once this milestone is hit, the remaning in

And soon everything will be acronyms. What use is it to shorten simple english words?! We already have enough acronyms in IT, we don't need to shorten simple sentences as well.. Isn't OP, TFA, AFAIK, IMHO, etc. enough already?

It'd be nice to have less of those acronyms on HN, it's really not obvious. Maybe because i'm not a native speaker..

Mh, no. That's not it, since in the beginning the code didn't use those statements. I was taking ownership of the code and then had weird warnings popping up all over the place. The fix for them was always one of those things from
