I'm sorry but it's not on MIT, GNU, or BSD so I would go so far as to say the title is clickbait...like can I take this code and try and get it to work on my x86 machine and then commit my changes under bsd? Probably not Can someo

Perhaps it should be called the alchemist network since it proposes to turn lead to gold.

I think speculation... Is just not in the cards for most use cases. Yes you can isolate cores and you can encrypt the data and use enclaves and all that with much effort and complexity and overhead might eventually fix the 90th percentile b

Typical desktop Linux is compiled with gcc and even if rust features in gcc lag behind rustc this is still a great step in the direction of one of the larger goals many of us want from rust which is to replace C as a memory safe systems lan

I think it should be healthy to be allowed to simply do your job if you are an engineer. If you are a good one you'll know when you need help and when you need to grind. Instead you are constantly in a state of being micro managed by p

Ah apple, often times thought incorrectly to be less evil than Microsoft or Google but has, in time been just as shameless as either in their own "apple-y" way

I like big chunky but rounded fonts so Hack has served me well now for the better part of a decade.

If all progress reports were as technical and interesting as dolphins I would just be reading them all week. Always fun to see what they have been working on and it's a bit inspirational to see such dedication long after the emulator h

I would consider this appropriate if one of the largest offenders of scrapping weren't the one pretending to be the offended.

I bet you that you won't. Hope I'm wrong. They just split their stock and it's continuing to tank. Had a friend get his interview canceled today because they removed the position, said it was for financial reasons.

They have also laid off a bunch of their employees today...

I have never understood unity. For all it's faults and annoyances I have never once considered gnome, kde, or even cinnamon inferior to unity. People talk about it's consistancy in the comment section but as someone who has had to

It's interesting to me how people think that just because it's apple it's not still skimming your data. Saying something is "privacy first" is cheap and easy. Proving it is another and we have enough evidence to sup

Only a supervisor thinks you make a train faster by putting in progressively more train stops.

I find it interesting that across a decade and countless frameworks from jQuery, meteor, angular, and now react the core problem is still and somehow progressively worse than ever...state. I find it strange this is still such a hard problem

Have we really fallen this low? How are there so many people in this comment section defending feedly while berating the author for what I would consider a level headed and fair assessment of the state of it. As someone hunting constantly f

Food and your personal desire to cook and eat it is so so subjective that the idea that anyone can try and say you are doing something wrong that you have done before and enjoy...well it's silly. The entire industry around cooking and

My hope is that these improvements push nvme and similar technologies to a state where they could theoretically replace ram. Pipe dream I know but the idea of something breaking the von neumann machine paradigm even a bit is exciting.

The thing I hate the most is that 80% of the time you will be kicked out of the interview process before you even talk to the person you will be working with. Your GitHub doesn't matter Your resume to a degree doesn't matter If yo

It's so sad to see hyperbolic articles like this saturate HN. DevOps was a stepping stone and it had many lessons to teach us just like the traditional IT before it and just like the roles that will come after it. It was a success some

People always say "just use alfred" but I mostly use Mac as an excuse to get a Unix terminal at work and don't really use or need a large addon like Alfred even though I can see how one might. For me all I need is the clipboa

Love or hate UEFI it's the defacto standard for booting modern hardware and the added support gets us closer to a viable desktop platform. The success of M1 has shown the advantages of a consumer risc platform but the holy grail for ma

If you want good people pay them and respect them. It's crazy how you have to explain humanity to people in the tech industry. If you are good at what you do then there are two reasons you will do it. 1. You are paid well 2. You are re
