Or maybe kids who want to be treated as adults but not act like it? It's part of a phase in most kids.

From what I've seen in the videos of students complaining about missing safe spaces, I wouldn't call it civilized. For Ivy League students, I found the discourse rather uneducated, one-sided, and free of tangible arguments. That s

What kind of environments (software, hardware) is everyone running this one? I tried it once, and I found it much more sluggish and unresponsive compared to my X11 Emacs setup. EDIT: I should add that I have all the bells and whistles like

Given how single page web sites are more or less like Flash in that they don't follow the document model anymore, maybe it's for the best, giving real web pages a chance to revive an effort like XHTML and get us document standards

I get what you're saying, but what I meant is that it's surely possible to keep the current features while streamlining it into something coherent, much smaller, and easier to implement. The modern web platform's bloat and wh

I haven't been following WebAssembly, but I've asked myself why, given the elevated level of security threats, there is not effort to design a safer, tinier, web page scripting system. I have the feeling that based on the experien

What I never got an answer to is how Windows users cope with the abysmally long update times and reboot/update/reboot cycles. Just the process to check for updates takes ages on most machines, regardless of RAM or SSD. On Linux (D

Which is probably why you can get $50 phones on AliExpress, and maybe the only way to have an up to date Android phone without shelling out 300 or 600 dollars.

What makes Vermont so great that it has Sanders and FTTH?

Yep, your local dentist won't have a WSUS, but maybe one or two Windows computers.

Another data point: Windows Media Center is either not available in the to-be-upgraded-to-licensed version of Windows and you have to buy it now, or it's not available anymore, don't remember. But people's HTPC's were up

People do upgrade when they know from experience that their system won't regress. It's not necessarily a Windows LTS ala RHEL what's needed, but something inbetween Windows XP is unsupported and Windows 10 breaks your usage m

The data collectors can be disabled, but MS has renamed services or otherwise introduced remedies to prevent disabling of the collectors, and therefore it's safe to distrust in that regard.

The update tool claims your system (including drivers and software) is compatible with Windows 10, only later to realize that some hardware doesn't work or an application doesn't start anymore. While these are rare, it's unac

While they cannot take back open sourcing some of the core technologies liberally, this doesn't mean their management had to be become friendly as well. Microsoft is so big that it's no wonder that one team does something great fo

Does Maine have similarly good FTTH coverage as Vermont?

But if the accusations are true, maybe you dodged a bullet by not getting on his radar. So, I wouldn't feel bad about it. It maybe was your defense mechanism, sensing something bad and taking the exit.

I have experience with both and I certainly don't find anything comforting in church bell ringing, and frankly I'm sure people in Turkey (atheists included) are used to muezzins and generally not annoyed by it, just as I am to chu

I would vote for a ban on regular church bell noise as well if I had the choice. In Germany they also ring at ungodly hours in the morning for most programmers. Just as you wouldn't be able to pass a ban on a mosque's call for pra

What's the background on Arlanda Express. I've used it and wasn't too impressed but it wasn't late or super slow. Though I wouldn't consider it an express connection from the airport to central station compared to w

It's a matter of different politics. Norway chose not to basically let private companies take all the profit from natural resources, while in the UK there's this weird system in place that has politicians ruining public orgs like

Yep, as long as we develop extensions and tools for platforms with ToS like that, we are to be blamed. It reminds me of most developers' blissful ignorance of CLAs and merrily pushing patches to projects where they hand over copyright

If you limit yourself to either a popular Linux distro or one of two Unixes/Unix-likes, then bash can be available out of the box. Just as C is not C++, shell is not bash, so a shell script is what runs on (d)ash, busybox, toybox, ksh,

by cm3 10y ago
But once you adopt bash-only features, you're losing the main argument for a shell script: portable scripting without the need to first install something to get something else running. Once you require Bash, it's equally easy to d

Which is why Tor should probably operate like PaX, without real life identities associated. Some open source contributions are not very different from activism in that they can get you into trouble in certain jurisdisctions, and in essence

Thanks, looks like a fork and I can also see why some of the text could be mistaken to mean it's reusing NTFS underneath.
