Other projects I have seen have done opt-out telemetry on the beta/testing/development versions of their software, and it's disabled on stable builds. Win-win.

It appears there are two operators by Crunchy Data. The PGO (FOSS one) and the commercial one. See this FAQ [1]. The PGO is Apache 2 licensed. 1: https://access.crunchydata.com/documentation/postgres-operat...

None of these problems seems real. It seems they're just fuel for the outrage mob. Who's ever heard of a 'shofar' horn? When people throw around scare terms like 'alt-right' it's very hard to take them s

Well, you've always had to do this. If you give someone seeds, they would be free to use those seeds to develop patented varieties.

Open source seeds as in the Open Source Seed Initiate [1] come with a GPL-like pledge that you won't restrict creations from seeds based on these seeds [2] > You have the freedom to use these OSSI-Pledged seeds in any way you choose

Hybrids don't have to be patented, but if they're new varieties, they certainly can be. Similarly, new varieties that aren't necessarily hybrids (eg, once were hybrids and now are stable) can also be patented.

The seeds produced are often plantable. For many seeds, especially GMO seeds, the grower needs to acquire a license to the seeds and agrees not to save seeds from planted crops (as you suspect, to ensure income for the seed producer). Othe

I mean, if you're in the realm of 'no-downtime upgrades' because it will impact your application, maybe spending an extra $5/mo makes sense rather than relying on bespoke tooling. There's also k0s, which aims to be

Is a single node k3s overkill? I don't think so. Once you outgrow it, you can port your deployments to a real k8s cluster.

Every now and then I read a press release from some organization about how they're using crypto or going to use crypto (aka blockchain) to solve some industry problem. For the life of me, I can't figure out how any of these ideas

Part of the earlier discussions on this topic, the pro-FP side makes the argument that if FP are disabled by default, you need to recompile a ton of the distro to enable them. If they're enabled by default, and there's a particul

The nice thing about a centralized scheduler is the code for scheduling only needs to run in one place. If each node 'bids' on the workload, you need to run scheduling fit on every node for every application. You also need to wo

Right. And 'unable to utilize' I think just is about the credit being non-refundable. EG, if are otherwise already showing a loss, then you don't want to use the credit. If you have reportable income, then the R&D cred

There's an R&D tax credit. See [1]. I would aggressively pursue this option. Much better than a deduction anyway. 1: https://www.hklaw.com/en/insights/publications/2023/01/rd-co...

yeah, if you can do commits per function that would be fine. Most projects don't allow that, everyone squashes commits these days.

I don't consider comments litter. Commit messages rarely have the amount of context needed for a specific block of code.

by linuxftw 4y ago
This was true before git blame. Now I can see when the comment was created and the original code it described if I have any doubts about the veracity of the comments.

syscall's are not in C. They are an interrupt instruction and some parameters in registers, and these can be emitted in a variety of languages. You only need to use C if you want to use libc of the platform.

Despite the fact that the clinical trials didn't test for ability to stop transmission and infection. So the CDC, FDA, and Pfizer outright lied to the public. And when that lie fell apart, it was so 'you don't overrun the h

The experimental products don't prevent infection or transmission, so whether or not coronavirus itself has impact on cardiovascular function is not relevant to whether or not the vaccines do as well. We know for a fact at this point t

The example for OPEN(2) isn't for Linux, it's for glibc. Languages are free to implement system calls and bypass glibc if they wish. This isn't the case on BSD as the libc implementation is the official interface, but nobod
