Well, the question is, best for what? If the goal is to maximize the amount of Free (as in libre) software, then the GPLv3 is arguably the best choice. If the goal is to provide liberty, as in letting people choose what to do with the code

Well, I'm cynical enough to think that there might never be a second device, so I took the plunge now. ;) VPN: Haven't tried yet, waiting to see what the next update brings. I know people in the forums have had some success runnin

It's great, yeah. One useful example of what you can do with SSH access is to set up a cronjob on a computer to do automatic backups of the phone.

I got the jolla on the 28th or so (bought mine in late November), and I've been using it a little since. I haven't switched from my iPhone, but I do have some impressions: Good: - Sailfish OS is really nice looking, and the gestur

Maybe this is a difference between the US and Sweden, but at least around here, there are plenty of things that are illegal even if clearly stated in the terms of use and there is no compulsion involved. For example, it's illegal to se

Right, of course. Thank you. :)

It's a recurring rage of mine how bad and even dangerous many appliance and real-world UIs are. The car stereo with timed modes is only one example, stove-tops with unfriendly touch screen interfaces that make it hard to tell if the stove i

Precisely. Would anyone argue that instead of Einstein Day, we should have Turing Day? No, the objection to that would be that for one thing they have very little in common, so why would one replace the other, and for the other part, why ca

Yes, I agree with you and I didn't make myself clear enough. I think it is perfectly fine for women to be brought up and given attention, and that them being women in science is highlighted. What I object to is that apparently women are str

It seems a bit sad that we apparently only can have one woman in science. Why not have two? I think it's perfectly legitimate to celebrate Marie Curie but at the same time also celebrate Ada Lovelace, and I don't see how the two are in comp

In this case I was primarily thinking of flourescent light from an LCD screen (would have mentioned CRTs, but that would have dated me a bit TOO much), but I agree completely about the life-killing quality of shitty overhead flourescent lam

32 here, and so far programming is the best thing I've ever done in life. The stress I've experienced has all emerged from my own expectations of myself, from wanting to excel. My mother is in her late fifties and recently returned to worki

I'll try to clarify what I mean, since my reply to the other post is somewhat confused. I should read more carefully before posting. Anyway. First of all, is your data suitable for storage in a relational database? If not, if you end up hav

You pretty much nailed what I was going to say. Yeah, I found it a bit strange that the only alternative to using an ORM that the author could imagine was to roll your own? What's the problem with using SQL directly? To answer the grandpare

"You have a relational mapping problem. 'I know', you say. 'I'll use an ORM.' You now have two problems." That just about sums up my experience with ORMs. Of course, like all things in the real world, experiences vary. However, I do think t

I was going to make this exact comment. I've been working on implementing part of the 3GPP diameter protocols, and they are an absolute nightmare in comparison to reading RFCs. So many documents that mostly repeat what other documents say,

I've never understood what the idea is there, why would seeing a naked person be so damaging to children? It just seems so ridiculous. What's supposed to happen to a child that sees nudity? Around here, kids see naked people all the time (f

Same here. It's underdeveloped, but I think it could be brilliant with another revision or two. I hope he does well.

The bug that caused Ruby to run slow on that benchmark turned out to be one that afflicted earlier versions of Python. It's a priority inversion problem related to the GIL. GIL: The global interpreter lock, basically a single lock that thre

This is horribly off-topic, but perhaps relevant still: Can you share the details of this bastardized Lisp that you favour? Is it a lisp that is generally available, or one that you made up on the spot? I'm curious. I don't know the ins and

It's not an ad hominem at all. It's not used as an argument against his statements about software. It was used as an example of his personality. How is a known fact about his personality not a valid example of his personality? The statement

Well, I don't agree with you entirely at least. It is not at all evident to me that looking at the past helps avoid new mistakes . It might help avoiding the exact mistakes that were made before, but it is highly probable that the mistakes
