If you don't care about political views of presenters, there's no need to bring inclusion to the table; just consider their technical talents and call it a day. If you actually care about inclusion, you need to think about how inc

I'm starting to think that I should go back to GoboLinux from Ubuntu.

I know this is about the firing of a reddit mod, but I can't shake of the feeling that the people behind this petition care more about the banning of hateful subs. This is a retribution for them. I really feel disappointed when people

It's been said, but really, it should be opt-in rather than opt-out. If you really need this, just ask. If I'm feeling particularly nice that day, I might even allow it, but when I discover their mischief after they've done i

Author here. I haven't seen SQRL and I'll check it in detail later. It looks like a more complicated thing than what I did and much more work compared to a simple, hackathon-like project. My project works only on Dropbox and it do

Well of course it has no anti-malware features, the only protection it has is that no credentials are sent to the client, just an authorization token, which you can disable using your phone.

I supported Drop-dropbox.com when I first heard about it, but since nothing's changed since then I guess it was unsuccessful.

I'll try to answer to this as best as I can, since I'm new to this feminism thing there's bound to be stuff that I'll miss. Well first of all it's very nice of her approving the use of image and Playboy too for not

I understand your point, but I believe some tradition must be put to rest at some point as we grow wiser. On the other hand, Wikipedia says the Lena image was remastered in 2013 so it may lose its historical significance if the remastered v

Oops, my bad for not checking. Thanks for clarification!

Maybe Bellard is reading these comments. I made a very unpopular remark about his use of Lena.jpg and while I believe it's mostly coincidence, he used an imageset without Lena.jpg. If you're reading, Bellard, hi!

I don't think it's marginalization. I completely agree with you on this, but my comment probably sounded like I wouldn't, since I was covering both sides.

I understand your concern, but I personally think we're not there yet. What troubles me most is the sensationalist and preaching-to-the-choir nature of all media. The reason is probably the nature of the internet and benefits of clic

I'm very split on this topic. I read this on The Verge[1] and I know they're pretty left-leaning. But to my experience they rarely lie and they made many criticisms I find valid. On the other hand, marginalization is another big p

I suggested the sole reason of him defending the status quo was that it was challenged by people he didn't like. I still believe it's true.

Thanks for clarifying. I can relate, since I would also defend anything if it was criticized by people I didn't like. ...no wait, I wouldn't.

If her face is the only face that is critical to the image compression analysis, yes, you are completely right. I have a hard time understanding the knee jerk reaction to the change and the willingness to maintain the status quo. We have no

> Unless you want to deny a woman the right to permit Not doing something you are permitted to do is somehow denying their right to permit? It's nice of her permitting the use, however her permission doesn't force us to use it.

Very out of topic but, is lena.jpg still acceptable? I mean, tech industry is getting better at inclusion but come on, are we still using that crop from Playboy?

I always wondered about dependent types. Even though it was a little bit too technical for me, at least I have some idea about what it really is. By the way, Z notation rocks.
