We're not talking about a discrepancy of 1 or 2 votes. We're talking hundreds of votes.

I don't believe the elections have any amount of integrity in the US. The system of controls in place are laughable at best. When the physical recount doesn't match the voting day totals, the original totals are kept (see Jill S

It definitely can't be the immune system altering drugs we give to children in modern society, the likes of which have exploded in usage since the early 1990s. Nope, certainly not even worth mentioning here.

Compare US childhood vaccination schedule with the 3rd world.

Right. You have experience doing what everyone else does, aka, replaceable.

I don't write crud apps, but if I did, I'm sure I could sort out which ORM is the right one for my usecase.

How hard is it to find a few mainstream opensource projects and emulate what they're doing in a given language when it comes to packaging and best practices? Other than awful, unsuitable for production languages like ruby.

I think there's a compelling argument to be made for bug fixes and small changes being derivative works of the originally licensed open source software. As such, it's unlikely that the 'copyright' of those small changes

I definitely underestimate them because in my last 7 roles I haven't used either. I don't know how far back 'modern' goes, but 3 roles were over the last 24 months (just started a new role) and none of those roles the c

No. My point was, companies should make money from services, not software. I believe all software should have a FOSS license.

Then they can go it alone or pay terraform.

I encourage this project to switch to AGPL license. Also, if you're a maintainer of a dependency of terraform and other projects, please consider doing the same. There's no way terraform can afford to support all those dependenc

Do you think Google should lock down the go language and compiler, considering how much value they've given Terraform and likely how little Terraform has paid for go itself?

Just let these corporate propaganda outlets die. Quit subscribing, quit reading.

Sure, you can. It's still probably the best way to spin up a lot of cloud resources, though.

No, I don't know of one. It seems Hashicorpo Vault has a good head start. But up until 11 hours ago, the code was MPL 2.0 licensed, so somebody could fork and start a project under one of those foundations.

There are many projects that are managed by foundations, like the Apache Foundation, FSF, Linux Foundation, etc. Those projects aren't backed by any one corporate entity. Aside from that, there's still value in contributing to a

I was thinking one of the distros was backed by CIQ, but I couldn't remember which, thanks.

Part of the justification at the time for getting rid of CentOS proper in favor of CentOS "Stream" was that poor Red Hat was doing all the work and spending all the cash in support of CentOS. Red Hat even went as far to say that

That was a really patronizing thing to read.

Middle management's job seems like the easiest to replace by AI. They don't create any products directly, they only take orders from above and distribute them to below. They take feedback from below, possibly communicate it up,

Once you factor in taxes and commute expenses, 18% is practically break-even for even a well compensated employee, and that doesn't include the QOL factor. Indeed, middle management is the plight of modern civilization. They'll p

Same exact thing happened to me. I'm not writing an essay about my high school life, that's ridiculous. I don't do asymmetrical interviews. I'll consider a take in coding test in lieu of something else (or a very trivi

I'm all for people having access to whatever they want. What I'm not for is the FDA fully approving something without a sufficient amount of testing.

Obviously this bit is implied. But, they should have done the safety studies so people can make a fully informed decision. It seems very unlikely they're going to direct all people taking this to stop breastfeeding, because it's

I'm not entirely convinced that is all there is to it. I had it write some code and associated unit tests, and then it came up with passing and failing examples. I also prompted for function results based on arbitrary input, and it w

Yes, they don't want to pay actual employees because their costs would be higher. But, they're also likely taking R&D tax credits, and having a 1099 makes the accounting much easier for them. They make an update to the routin

Not surprising at all. What is surprising is that boys are still good at math, despite being beaten down year after year by a girl focused environment.

by linuxftw 3y ago
Math scores for boys are higher than girls. So the statement that girls exceed boys in education is objectively false.
