Honestly this list is way shorter than I would have expected before clicking, and most of it is very niche stuff (not on the scale of "the entirety of GNOME", for example). Also, some of the entries have notes like "likely us

How many more decades until we're there? Scale comparison: Cryptocurrency-based technology has been publicly available for at least 12 years now. If I place initial public availability of the web at about 1992, we're currently in

Well yeah, after years of seeing lobbyists slipping their suggested phrasing into bills, it was about time we took a page from their playbook. :) (Disclosure: I volunteer in a local CCC chapter, mostly in public relations.)

I'm a German in an international work environment. Since I'm also fed up with this endless confusion, I'm sneakily forcing YYYY-MM-DD on everyone by quietly editing every instance of a date that I find in the wild, and it&#x2

I don't expect a schedule that tight, mostly because infections naturally wane in the summer months anyway. My (un)educated guess is that it will be rolled into the flu vaccine at some point and become a once-a-year occasion.

Two effects going on there in parallel: 1. In the last wave, some hospitals reported more ICU beds than they were actually prepared to staff, because each available bed in the datasheet got them a hefty government subsidy. 2. A non-negligib

They promised me that, while my class may not have political influence, at least I would have consumer power on the free market. Apparently that was wrong as well.

Because Google could cut funding from them at any moment. I literally use Firefox in order to not be dependent on Google's whims, so I think it makes sense for Mozilla to move towards a position where they too are not dependent on Goog

Is the typo in the submission title intentional or a Freudian slip?

If we allow that, attackers could hide a codepath in the binary that only activates for a specific build time in the .metadata section. That would defeat the purpose of reproducible builds.

They may refer to the definitive shortage of built-in functions. The template engine itself only provides the bare minimum. That's usually not a problem because of template function libraries like https://github.com/Mas

One of these is not like the other. I agree with all your sentiments except for the last one. Having experienced close friends dealing with child sexual abuse, I'm very thankful that children are educated about such boundaries very ear
