Looking at Mr. Niedermeyer's linkedin profile[0] and what he's doing/where he's worked was kind of enlightening as to his purpose and motivations. It probably works for him, though. I think 99+% of people, myself include

Did you read the blog post? It would need to be at least two decent mobile apps.

You can see it however you want :). You're also free to set up your own DNS if you prefer; we don't assert any control over the design, just our implementation.

Well, it's ours. We created it. We've allowed other countries to use it because it benefits us to do so. I realize this is probably not the popular opinion, but I'm not sure it makes any sense really to give up control over i

Has anyone used this successfully who would like to comment on it? We ran a brief test about a year ago and found performance was not acceptable given the amount of hardware dedicated to the test cluster, which they set up for us to their s

Be honest. If you were President of YC and you got invited, wouldn't you attend?

I disagree. I think it's more likely that we're still using programs designed for a different era. For example, food stamps (SNAP) were made permanent in 1964 as one of the great society programs. WIC came a few years later. I sus

Well I thought it was obvious, but my reply was intended to be sarcastic. For it to be taken at face value by anyone kind of highlights the problem with the systemd approach, IMO.

Certainly not everyone. There's a whole host of people who are angry about systemd the project primarily because of the (maybe misunderstood) behavior and communication from systemd the development team . Personally I don't see

If you automatically throw out cases, what's the point of having a law enabling and encouraging those cases in the first place? Or maybe a better question is: what would legitimate infringement look like, if what Google did is fair use

I thought this part of an Ars Technica article[0] on the trial was pretty telling: "On cross-exam, a Google attorney brought up a graph from an internal presentation by Brenner showing "aggressive" and "conservative&quot

Serious question: what caused you to purchase a Voyage vs. an Oasis or regular Paperwhite Kindle?

I don't know what parent is talking about w/ README files. But Slackware Linux (slack... get it?) includes a link to the church in their install.end file. They started scrambling it in a recent release.

I think he meant that they might not have one. It's been a while since I looked at using ZFS for anything meaningful, but at the time (~6 years ago), while losing L2ARC was no big deal, losing dedicated ZIL was catastrophic. I think th

Earth is elliptical - an oblate spheroid - so I would say they can.

He meant one 1080 is faster than two 980s in SLI, but that seems pretty hard to believe; we're going to need to wait for some 3rd party reviews.

The AMD Radeon R9 Fury series has a 4096bit bus (HBM1) - it's been out for months - so it would already be shaking it up if so.

Except they even state: "If you’ve pushed a gem with internal code, you still need to reset API keys, URLs, or anything else sensitive despite the new behavior." And: "...we’ve been using an Amazon S3 bucket to store the gems

How is publishing a secret (I mean passwords, ssh keys, etc.) a copyright violation?

by gnoway 10y ago
I think the key is that crates.io (and rubygems.org, nuget.org, etc.) as repo owners have to own the removal operation themselves and not delegate that to the package owner/maintainer. The repo owner is better positioned to take packag

Package persistence is not really a dependency manager feature though, it's a package repository feature. npm didn't fail; npmjs.com did. I'm just waiting for this to happen to bower next. AFAIK they're just a registry p

Presumably it would be an ownership group like e.g. Tim Cook + some other people borrowing the money, and/or they'd partner with a P/E firm. Isn't that what Dell did a couple of years ago?

We have had problems but mainly with plugins. There's basically no mandatory QA process for plugins, nor is there any facility to make it obvious to an updater that an upstream change affects a downstream plugin and might break it. In

This reply was sufficiently aggravating to make me go do some research. Here's a thread[0] from last year bringing up some issues with KeePass2 code. It also links to an audit by some group that appears to be involved in information se

In case anyone's looking here first, ISOs are available here: http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/ For some reason these are not linked yet from the 'Downloads' page at ubuntu.com.
