As a personal aside, I once had a scrap of paper with Douglas Adams' email address written in his own hand, which he gave me in the course of a brief conversation after a book signing. Sadly, it was lost in a fire a few years later.

IMO, the mathematics underlying finite element methods and related subjects — finite element exterior calculus comes immediately to mind — are interesting enough to constitute a hobby in their own right.

Conversely, Nvidia provides first-party Linux support for most of the hardware they sell, and Apple goes out of their way to make booting third-party OSes on the majority of hardware they sell (read: all non-Mac devices) all but impossible.

While I don't disagree with your overall point, it seems worth pointing out that JetBrains has over 2,000 employees, so it's only small in comparison with industry giants, and that Rider has been successfully competing with "

If this is anything like an LG smart TV — and, as the UI is identical to my C4, I assume it is — none of the agreements are required to use the device as a monitor. On LG TVs, at least, you can also completely disable the WebOS UI via a com

This is the result I expected when I first read about the new California law. With a bit of luck, this story will get wide enough distribution that GOG will gain a bit of market share. Sadly, if GOG gains enough new market share to have a m

I was just using Git as an example of an application where pre-1970 timestamps could be useful. But as it turns out, $ git commit -m foo --date='1969-12-31 00:00:00' [main 25b6e63] foo Date: Sun Dec 30 23:00:00 2012 -0500

As someone whose nearest exposure to a "source based distro" is FreeBSD, this sounds like madness, as it means a broken build could not only impair attempts to repair the build, but render the system unbootable and/or unusabl
