You are right that kde lost a lot of mindshare, but these days it is really good (I prefer it to the other DE options). My whole family runs kde, from running a small business to children of a wide range of ages playing games and doing scho

Common wisdom is that 5 years is the bare minimum time to own before selling. Buying a house is a long-term strategy to lock in a current mortgage when you know you aren't going to move and rents are likely to go up. After 10 or 15 yea

That benefit seems extremely marginal when the presumption if innocence is the standard. Your explanation for the UK police caution phrasing makes perfect sense, but I wonder now if it's not meant to scare people into talking?

I don't understand why you're saying it isn't free. Are you saying that because it's dual licensed it's not free? Users would still be able to modify and fork the GPL version in all the normal ways.

I'm surprised the 2 democrats voted against the settlement. Republicans are normally seen as the pro-big-business party.

IANAL, but the source distribution requirement from network use only comes into play if the original AGPL work is modified. Section 13 of the AGPL seems to be the only part of the license that deals with remote network access, and it specif

This is the kind of thing that worries me. I'd rather err on the side of not involuntarily removing people's freedom.

In GP's post the second satellite is the same satellite, just on the way back. The post assumes for demonstration that the ground station is the destination.

I have also experienced something similar. It should never happen, but it does. Before you get too upset, make sure the supposed bossy peer isn't actually your supervisor.

I think the single most important part of starting out at the gym is to keep it as simple and friction-less as possible. The most important thing is to go consistently for a couple of months. Most failures happen when a person skips one day

This is really great work, great documentation. It looks like CMake, but with a full featured scripting language.

"Several" may have been an exaggeration, but their quadrapedal launch makes it look like they accelerated very quickly, unlike what we naturally envision when thinking of birds. (FTA) https://www.youtube.com/watch?

I think calling tax incentives subsidies is really confusing and leads to that misunderstanding. Maybe that's the purpose of using that language?

I really liked my university's required ethics course. It was taught by a CS professor with a law degree, and in addition to covering law included philosophy and ethics of what you should do with technology, and when an engineer should

Premium olive oil can cost around $24/lt in the US, but most people pay more like $8 per liter for something you probably wouldn't identify as olive oil. It would appear that the US is largely considered a dumping ground of olive

The lug wrenches aren't restricted in any way. Thieves can buy them and will get more use per dollar out of them than an owner who lost theirs.

Can anyone comment on how this affects those of us in other five eyes countries? Are we now subject to any provisions of this law by proxy?

I assumed they used PDF because it's a more stable format that is harder to accidentally modify on receipt. They may also need to store it on their end in case they need to prove what they provided, and provide some level of forgery pr

Isn't detecting fraud harder in a non-deterministic system? Theoretically in any deterministic system you can recount if there's a question.

One reason may be that for most people to care about conservation they need an opportunity to see or experience what they're conserving. It's the reason most conservation funding in the US comes from hunters.[0][1] 0: (PDF) https

To be fair, if you see someone wandering naked and confused outside their home they probably need help. Some well-meaning people may call a non-emergency line to get that person help, rather than out of fear.

A growing number of people seem to agree with this ([0],[1]). There are a couple of places ([2],[3]) where one can preregister a hypothesis and experiment before collecting data. There are also some journals that are starting to encourage p

Do people in those income brackets purchase vehicles that are that expensive? It doesn't seem wise to spend nearly half your pre-tax family income on a single vehicle. I've been assuming the average income of purchasers of the mod
