You are very, very likely to find people who prefer "sushi wo tabemasu", because standards are great.

The terms of the licenses have legal bearing. The definitions of open source are a historical accident that mostly traces back to "well GPLv2 already exists".

The headline status doesn't have to be "worst of all systems". Pick a key indicator, and as long as it doesn't look like it's all green regardless of whether you're up or down, users will imagine that "gre

4 instalments spaced by 2 weeks with the first up-front averages out to about a 3-week float, which is less than the grace period on ordinary consumer credit cards in the US. And Klarna charges merchants more for this!

It'll only be permissible for foreign governments to influence your media moguls to influence your youth on their behalf?

The way I learned it, swap is basically the inverse of file caching: in much the way that extra memory can be used to cache more frequently-used files, then evicted when a "better" use for that memory comes around; swap can be use

Well, I guess it's helping to distinguish authors who are doing arithmetic they understand from ones who are copying received incantations around...

I tossed pathogen in favor of git submodules in ~/.vim/pack/*/start/ in 2017 and it's still like that.

It's something that people keep reinventing on both sides of the connection. That XSLT is the better of two terrible ways to do it, and that you're making the argument that the other one still exists, is an embarrassment .

XSLT uhhh notably doesn't actually have better alternatives available.
