This will surely dissuade people from coming to work on work visa. It’s a big step to relocate your carrier to another country. If there is no perspective to fully commit and plan proper migration, then there is less motivation to even go i

The sales person does not have any incentive for that. They need their name to be associated with the purchase.

That’s just another word for overreaching regulation.

This should be built in to Firefox. I would appreciate that functionality, but installing a rando‘s script in my browser seems risky.

Companies should not opt for and advertise with open source, if they don’t stand behind open source principles. Classic bait and switch. That’s what upsets users. They chose Bitwarden over e.g. LastPass, because they believed in FOSS. Compa

Many SaaS disappoint after a while. They suggest you are paying monthly and benefit from ongoing development in return. Instead prices get increased, and essential new features are locked behind additional pricing tiers. Premium, professio

I personally could tolerate it if Microsoft’s “Ai” is down for a few hours or days per year. Give clippy a break.

If anything, it’s an intransparent trade that gives Musk and the others their power. It is not a vote.

Despite all the Ui tricks and metrics handwaving, even 16GB is not enough for a fluent dev-environment, with an IDE, a browser, slack, teams and docker. My 6 years old xps 13 with 16GB ram and Linux feels as slow as mbp m1 with 16 gb. 8gb i

We could make it illegal for minors to use the internet at all. It is too dangerous. Similar to driving. That would solve so many current problems.

OSS is unfortunately an overloaded term. But assuming it is about FOSS, than software that runs on the user’s machine gives so much more freedom. Can software even be free for a consumer, when it is really unpractical to run it yourself, be

It’s not 8 bit. Just ultra low resolution with big square pixels. But the color spectrum seems big and unaffected by whatever the crystal is doing.

I wish that worked on echo show. That thing is infuriating. Don’t get it unless you’re cool with ads in your home.

Microsoft is driving fragmentation with Powershell. It doesn’t really matter if it’s better than bash or not. Bash is good enough for most use cases. Yet e.g. so many of their examples for using cloud apis are in powershell, which instantly

I think the problem is the terminology. People grew up when open source software was also free. Open core uses the same terminology, although products are only open and free in a limited way. I don’t want to assume intend, but many users ar

Kind of sad to think that a company just went bankrupt, while their employees were working on their own companies instead. No blame for OP. But what should managers do in challenging situations to prevent their team from losing focus?

Exactly. I use Firefox for everything. It renders all the pages fine and is speedy enough so that I never question its performance. But even if it had some issues, those were minor compared to the danger the web is in now.

Companies like slack are externalizing costs to the customer. Instead of them spending money on developing a proper app, they let the customer provide them a runtime for their prototype which needs 1gigabytes and gigahertz for a chat app! W
