I think that if you are around in this business long enough, you will eventually experience something like this. We had a Linux server that had some issue with a network driver that was causing kernel oops with long uptimes (about once a we

Can GIMP load psd files correctly? I seem to remember that there was some trouble loading psd files, but I don't remember exactly what. Edit to add: I ask because if GIMP cannot handle the de facto standard image file type without too

Ok, I get your point. You need the extra debugging information. Now, here's my concern. I DO NOT want compromises. I DO NOT want to balance anything. I DO NOT want this telemetry crud on my browser spewing out my browsing history to an

I meant hypothetically. Sorry if I wasn't clear. As in, if in some hypothetical scenario, Google announced that they would break compatibility, it would be bad.

I certainly hope not. Can't speak for Angular, but in Python land, ~9 years later, people are still cleaning up the fallout of the changes from Python 2 to Python 3. It wouldn't bode too well for such a young language as Go to go

You are barking up the wrong tree here. The home owners aren't being screwed by some technicality. All of this was triggered by some super-mega-rich people not paying taxes for ~30 years, which after all this time amounted to a grand t

I wouldn't change the way bash works because I'm already used to it. After a while, one gets used to it. It's like working in a hazardous environment, full of spinning blades and spikes coming out the wall at random intervals

I dont use it, but in practical terms, I think btrfs is safe to use, from what I've been reading. There are some corner cases where something might bork, and you'll be staring at a recovery job, but hopefully no data will be lost.
