Sort of, but the question is whether you're producing and distributing a derived work, and I'd say that is the case, even if the parts you're distributing aren't the "important" ones.

Wt is a frontend framework with some JavaScript components, so you are actually redistributing it.

Not with online services, they've at least rebranded if not recoded them a few times. mac.com, MobileMe/me.com, icloud.com. It's true that the market is now much more stable, though.

When I need a simple-ish CRUD app, I use Django. I know the parts I need to know, and learning wasn't too hard. The database schema lives in one easy to view/edit file, no need to both create language objects and write SQL. Jinja2

Thanks! Bug report: "Czechia" on the map is showing 0 votes, since the poll item is "Czech Republic". Also you might want to account for "1 vote" meaning both no votes and actually one vote (not sure how, thoug

It works for a whole lot of people and usecases. It's not perfect, the whole CA system is pretty terrible, but just as the site says, it's what we've got. The kinds of sites which don't have HTTPS to this day likely don&

In a "typical" 3-tier app, you need a specific, explicitly written handler for each combination of data type, filtering, aggregation and output. That might not be a big deal if the amount of endpoint variants roughly corresponds t

If our choices are "GPL enforcement remains basically nonexistent, making the licence useless" and "GPL is enforced, but doesn't see much corporate use", I'll take the second option. If I wanted adoption above

But at that point you've reinvented mainframe-like terminal interfaces. "Everything old is new again", but is that good?

I'm currently helping set up a wiki for students of a STEM faculty, and we've settled on MoinMoin (v2, that is). We're broadly building on a previous MediaWiki setup, which we've found to be too "Wikipedia-oriented&

Yes, and I think the GDPR has been a net benefit for me and society, even if enforcement has been really slow.

They're not actually cookie permission pop-ups (that was a previous law IIRC), they're much broader consent pop-ups about handling user data. You don't really have any assurance they're not tracking you after declining,

I don't see how the situation is altogether worse. Now everyone is aware about the extent of tracking and can opt out, even if most sites don't make it as easy as it should be. Is clicking "yes"/"no" such

Everything being built centrally and transparently by an established group puts it leagues ahead of any other app store in my mind. Installing other people's software will always be a potential security problem, but that is unavoidable

I'd say it's much harder for kids to pay any amount of money online than to spend lots of time figuring out a workaround. And when they learn to pirate as a kid, they'll carry that knowledge into their adult life.

As others have said, imports from government data do happen. Here's an example from a random village in the Czech Republic: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/103631362 It's tagged as coming from RÚIAN, our ba

Most of the things you've mentioned are caused by the delayed IPv6 rollout, self-hosting just isn't a priority for residential ISPs. I'm sure that there are plenty of good tutorials on setting up Apache or some other web serv

You don't even need to go that deep. Does tobacco hurt others? Except for smokers costing the state more on average, which should never be a crime by itself, not really. I don't like cigarette smoke and think we should take obnoxi

Almost, but since it publicly associates the files you share with your IP address, I don't see most interested people willing to use it in this context.

by dvdkon 5y ago
Obvious, maybe, but there are many who will criticise anyone self-hosting, saying that a cloud solution will inherently be more stable, since it has a bigger ops team.

I have to say I like the CEE 7/5 exposed ground, it's admittedly a niche use, but it's easy to touch and/or clip onto.

Facebook can be so user-hostile precisely because competition in that sector is broken. When Facebook removed XMPP support, what did their users do? Nothing, because if they valued XMPP support, they also valued the conversations and frie

But that means throwing out a large part of Django and writing lots of "interconnect" code. At that point I think it's better to choose a different backend, one that will generate typed Typescript client code (or use Typescri

It's for advanced Excel users, they basically deal with the complexity of programming, just in their strange way, and I think it's a good way to reduce "Excel abuse".

Our opinions on the cause aside, we had reasonably priced housing before, we can have it again, without fundamentally changing the way our cities are built (that's not to discount any other reasons to do so).
507.
by dvdkon 5y ago
I recall housing prices being mostly reasonable 15-20 years ago, I don't think our current woes are the result of any "design".

You can usually weasel your way to describing a personal benefit as useful to the business, e.g. "I want a new chair" -> "I need a new chair to be more productive by being more comfortable", so I'm not sure this

Do you really think workplace norms should never adjust for their employees? I think a balance between doing the bare minimum to avoid bankruptcy and squeezing employees for every last drop of productivity is needed and I don't see how

It's partly personal preference and partly which areas you frequent, I guess. I like the 19th/early 20th century apartment buildings, family houses that weren't built in recent homogenous developments are usually nice as well
