I am old enough to remember the TV images and sounds of violence in Beirut and the fighting on the streets during the time of the IRA. The storming of the capital seems like incorrect framing of what looked a lot like a desperate attempt to

To add, C++ has survived for many years as the defacto system-level programming language (C has too). It has survived good and bad shifts in software engineering. The old "C++ is not going anywhere" argument applies. C++ is not gr

I can’t tell if the Godot team is serious about commercial viability. My company cannot afford to wait until Godot 4 to build product. And since we’ve got a big investment in prior work, there is little chance we will switch that work over

One place for apples to apples comparison is a great idea. Is there API access?

It doesn’t work on mobile, which is unfortunate. I was very curious given the title.

This is my setup. I have a midsize Dell server in the basement and Business Internet. The internet package is symmetric speed with a static IP. The price is about $10 more than Consumer Internet. I have peace of mind and a consistent soluti

The Justice Department had to get court approval to access private servers and remove malicious software. But, why does the FBI have to do this? Why does a federal agency have to remove a software virus from private servers? There are priva

Great idea, this is how we follow the money. In accounting firms that work with companies whose stock is traded on SEC-regulated markets, all close family members of the employees of the accounting firm are subject to SEC regulatory oversig

After reading the rest of the quote, I agree. It's an apt quote and a challenge to FOSS founders to bring make their software better. From that standpoint, Challenge Accepted.

I'm watching to see if this takes off, and how the developer does. It's already at the top of HN, so that's a great start. The developer has positioned this as a much needed solution to an age-old problem: how to make Outlook

Two reasons: 1. The market for technology is driven by price/performance. It is why there is a 4K Vizio TV at $400 sitting next to a 4K Samsung at 10x the price, and both of them sell. Buyers purchase technology based on price and perf

You caught that, eh? I am not from the "inner city", and this conversation was pretty dumb. Most of them are.

It certainly does need to become mainstream, just like Linux did. The PinePhone, like its various alternatives, will have to find footing in the marketplace in the same way Linux did: with superior performance for the price. No mobile phone

The phone marketplace rewards performance, and there are only two ways to compete: either tightly integrate the OS and processing hardware (like Apple does) or throw processing hardware specs at an unintegrated OS (like Samsung, Google, et.

A PM working in government (happened to be a white woman) once asked me how I (a black engineer, early 30s) escaped the inner city and became successful. I thought about it and answered, "I decided to stop participating in activities t

This comment is getting downvoted, but the point it makes is validated by my own experience as a black engineer over about 30 years. My "internalized racism" has been explained to me many times by women who share many (if not all)

There are different kinds of apps for different use cases. Performance is a feature, but not always necessary. For example, Line of Business (LOB) apps are built with ROI in mind. LOB apps help businesses run more efficiently, and employ th

“Drop the mic” is a phrase that is borne out of “Coming to America” a raunchy romantic comedy from the 1990”s. If Fellini had a hand in its making it would be a masterpiece, rather than an excuse for an upcoming money grabbing sequel.

The voting data consists of four tables: candidates, counties, precincts, vote_tallies Without a set of open tables for voters and votes there is no chain of custody. Without a chain of custody this data is academic at best. There is no rel

This is a fascinating problem. The velocity of kernel releases makes this problem both catastrophic and fleeting at once because it must be solved and, once solved, will quickly become a footnote in kernel history. Also loved this quote: Le

“whatever reason Amazon gave” was dismissive, but also accurate. They gave a reason. The poster dismissed it and the comment was downvoted for the dismissal. Each action was ideological.
