Since we are in anecdotal territory, let me state that I’ve been a heavy smoker since I was 13, and I’m 46 now. I find it difficult to concentrate on coding without weed. I have a very low resting heart rate and enjoy hill climbs on my bicy

I’m personally rather bored with the hobbies and tastes of these modern tech billionaires like Jeff and Elon. A few years back, there was a total global circumnavigation of the world in a solar powered 2 person airplane based in Switzerland

To me, this reads as an admission that software complexity leads to lower determinacy and lower systemic coherence. That bottom up design is dead, at least with regards to the industry they are preparing people for. I still think that SICP

FOSS failed? Chances are that it’s intimately involved in your client, my client, and the HN services Last I checked, both major mobile platforms have their OS roots in FOSS, Linux and BSD, respectively.

Or not remove the configuration utility, in some cases. No one here asked for telepathy and amazing defaults, but take away my configurability and I get upset.

I think, rather, that parent posts were complaining that these manufacturers defaults were: 1) constantly changing Willy Nilly 2) less than useable, né breaking functionality A proprietary OS has no obligation to care about your needs, but

Where does Linux fit into your story?

I hate new features in familiar applications. I think it’s marketing you are referring to, not consumer demand. While I’m only positing an anecdotal personal reaction, I’m also not seeing data behind the premise you proposed. Slack is puzzl

And that must and is changing. Green transport is predicated upon a green grid. Additionally, a “wasteful” process, like electrolysis of water to make hydrogen, can be usefully inserted at onsite wind generation sites for when the grid isn’

Cultural values that would mean MBS and the House of Saud loses face and honor. (And future access to money)

It’s but a matter of positioning, IIRC BP has this slogan “beyond petroleum” and my guess is that MBS is not the most sensitive human, but rather one of those “impose your will at any cost” golden children who think they actually earned the

Well that certainly added every ingredient in the kitchen. Who can argue with such a sprawling word associative piece of prose? I’m not entirely sure I understood the latent threat, nor do I see any attempt to apply these concepts to seriou

Maybe everyone in America “knows” this already, but it’s an alien concept in much of Europe and Asia.

Aesthetic revulsion at software bloat is the intuitively derived conclusion of logically derived facticity.

That’s a very strange metaphor. How about giving plans away for a bathroom. Last I heard, integrating your app for you and doing it in house wasn’t part of putting a repo on GitHub

That you have to redo it all the time, as in kitchen remodels. Blame it on folks outside of dev? I would ban the word “modern” if possible. Everyone thinks that it’s obvious but no one seems to be able to define it once and for all, lol

The pseudo formal notation says “look but don’t touch” when an actual example of the advertisement or message would clarify things. Additionally, providing context on BGP with respect to other routing protocols would be useful

Java and C# are not capable of programming hardware, in the sense that C and C++ are. There’s nothing “nonmodern” about C or C++ and LLVM was written in such a language that compiles to literal processor instructions. The JVM and dot net ru

However if you reference it a decade earlier you find female rock bands smoking hashish after a gig, etc. I’ll not be so simplistic as to blame a particular power, but the place was dismantled, and didn’t just fall apart. Regardless of Roma

I just want to add that technology is political. The directions specific entities push for become de facto standards. I have heard and seen many technical hiring staff express the idea that some technology or practice is wrong or obsolete w

The bad actor in question has a known history of smash and grab “audacity” with copyright and guitar tablature, Ultimate Guitar. It sounds like some of the historically aggrieved parties need to get together and do something about these t

Like loan sharks care about helping poor people. No thanks to predators offering help. Audacity ui worked fine for me for over a decade. Your opinion otherwise doesn’t justify such rapacious behavior on the part of Ultimate Guitar, who basi

Audacity is a GPL licensed public domain offline audio editor. There is nothing to compel such a nebulous community driven software effort to behave as you suggest. Not everything is made by companies, you know. This community software is b
