I remember using Travis for everything (although on their free tier). After they did organizational changes, and some other stuff, I noticed my builds were hardly running. Many never started, and ever more never completed. Travis was caus

Not any options other than local currency offered when I checked earlier, nor when I checked again now. A crypto-wallet vendor is literally blocking crypto payments, even when they (according to you) support it (for some users)? I mean come

If I were into crypto, this might have been neat. But you know… if these guys thinks that crypto is a real currency and think you should use it for trade… Why do I have to pay for it using “real” money? They don’t really seem to be fully in

I don't give a rats about crypto stuff generally or coinbase specifically. At this point I equal blockchain to snake oil and scamming. For me this is all about their flagrant abuse of platform and gate-keeper power.

Correction: It’s unbanning accounts which should never have been banned in the first place, for simply having legal to hold opinions. He’s banning child porn and bots though. Because that seemingly wasn’t banned before. He’s clearly a nazi,

So banning right wing users for having right wing opinions are OK… But banning antifa-accounts, that is accounts held by people taking part in month long riots and looting and political real-world violence… that is bad? Is this satire? Is t

Great. Now do the HR or DEI boards :D HR and DEI (ironically) are almost 99% female and wield almost absolute power over the corporation. When will we have proper gender-representation there?

I see lots of people claiming to be upset, but I can't see any good objective reason for it. So I'm asking one guy who clearly has an opinion on it. Is that wrong?

I think at this point it’s a new building primitive mostly aimed at major-mode authors. That said, tree-sitter should make it possible to create paredit-like implementations for languages not LISP and other stuff like that, which IMO could

If you follow the Emacs-devel mailing list, you will see many of the built in modes adds support for tree-sitter to various degrees lots of languages are already on the list (C, Python, Javascript, Bash, JSON and CSS). It also includes some

This HN post though is about a (new) core tree-sitter implementation in Emacs itself, which is not the same as the third party package[1] you linked. To give credit where credit is due though, it was obviously inspired by this work and what

From a practical point of view, if you’re already “just” using it as a media-server, wouldn’t a more realistic approach be to just install Linux on it? That way you can dedicate almost 100% of the limited RAM to Plex and it should keep runn

Someone is trying too hard to make something very normal seem niche. They’ve probably gone to a school whose curriculum includes the terms “critical” and “theory” and “colonialism” more often than not.

Mozilla stopped spending their money on making a good browser, instead started blowing all their Google-cash on “inclusivity” and “diversity” efforts many, many years ago and fired technical staff which would not tow this new political line
