There's an elephant in the room here, and it's Adobe. The author's put forward a lot of valid criticisms of the breakpoint-based approach & also provided a really good guide to doing proper web design, but what's ski

Both of these only cover case changes for the object being counted: cases are pretty common across non-English languages so this is simple enough on its own. The main difference I see in Breton is the rules for 1-9 follow through for double

This is a good article, though as someone who prefers references/tables to prose for technical topics, the real find for me was the link out to the Unicode CLDR project (which sadly contains a LOT of broken links right now due to a dat

Because it doesn't "just work" in the actual sense: namely, installing is an involved process. That's great for people who are into Linux, but that's not your audience if you're talking about growth. Manjaro ma

Depends on the region you're in but non-competes vary wildly in enforceability. They mainly survive on the threat of incurring costs of a legal fight rather than likelihood of actual follow through enforcement.

It's had 3 separate forks over the years: I was mainly basing my comment on the 2 predating the sale as I haven't actually tried Organic Maps (yet) - good to hear its actively developed. I had given up on the other two due to vari

I think this would have been true in the past, but it may be changing. Google are fast degrading their maps UX as part of their maps monetisation efforts, to the point that backlash has even reached normal users. I was listening to a very m

I don't think most people really care that much about performance; rather a vocal minority. Most devs are not that discerning in choosing their tools: they'll happily use what's given to them or what's mainstream when th

That isn't the point I gleaned from reading it. The gp seemed to be making a specific point about Git, not about text based tools in general.

Blocking people for "just asking questions" is fine - such questions are more often than not wolf-whistles, especially in conversations involving sexual abuse. But I did find her language in the replies odd - the level of bad fait

I don't know which companies/CISOs you've worked with but in my experience it's the opposite: CISOs tend to be wary of transferring corp data to 3rd-parties, for both legal/compliance and security reasons. It's

I think the sexual interpretation is pretty strong (at least today) - "groping" and "groper" have slightly different vibes - that warrants removal today imo. But yeah, I'm not sure if that was the case in the 80s. -

Ah. In that case, not really the "space" I'm referring to. Was really asking if there's any other non-self-hosted competitors to these services out there?

Jitsi's free service disables video to "save bandwidth" if you have any reasonable amount of participants (3+ in my experience), and doesn't allow you to re-enable it. Their paid service allows you to tweak this but it s

CVSS is a poor metric because (by its own definition / admission) its got a very narrow intent: it doesn't really deal with exploitability in any meaningful way (like e.g. the shell access required here). There is a lot of ongoing

Sorry if it comes across as snide but I really do wish it were different, I do wish IRC were less niche. But when all of its defenders start their HN comments with "I", it's difficult to see IRC supporters ever looking beyond
