Guy whose blog doesn't allow comments whines about not showing up on a comments site.

Corps put value on TCO, repairability, sturdiness, LTS... Not on looks and image.

I used to be involved in hiring for a consultancy. We didn't care for previous employers as long as they were legal, we cared about projects, technologies, challenges... Then again we were open-minded, we did work for a quasi-pornsite

It doesn't even need to be a startup: hearing aids are techically inferior to mid-range earbuds, yet cost more than 10x more. I'm guessing it's a certification+distribution issue, like for smartphones in the US. I've hea

I'm very puzzled by the lack of Android desktops. Most users (not high-end users) would rather use the same OS and apps on all their devices, and Android is perfectly OK for content consumption, Office-type work, social and comms, ligh

It's standalone 2FA, not a paswword manager. There's no seed.

"encrypted by password" doesn't mean much by itself: is the whole security chain open source ? audited by a third party ? as well as any changes ? Secured by the provider accepting responsibility for breaches and their conse

I take my previous phone out of its drawer. Or my tablet.

I'm not really in favor of putting 2FA codes in the Cloud, see that password manager that got hacked a few months ago. Granted, we can expect better from Google, but still, they're not accepting any liability. Google Authenticator

You're complaining about your comment to a blog post being deleted... I'm not seeing where on your blog I can comment ? "Look, France had to shut down their Nuclear plants in the hot summer of 2022 because the heat wave made

Any "is better than" statement is frought and pointless. You've got to specify better "at what". My 1st car was a Citroën 2CV, with a 9HP engine, zero noise isolation, barely able to keep moving forward on inclines

You can't normalize carrying guns at dev conferences. If you let someone mention that in an "issues about a language" post, we must be able to point out a) how unrelated the 2 are and b) how murderous guns and gun-carriers ar

If you lose control of the trademark, you open the door to fake rust.

As opposed to "my gun or your IT ecosystem is dead to me" which is so not creating drama over unrelated things ? /s

False equivalency: guns kill people. no-guns doesn't. I'm with life.

The danger is well known, not unknown: it's people with guns.

Yeah. Weak masculinity. You can't drive drunk but you can drink and carry ? Around kids and from 18 ? How could that go wrong ?

Also, a hill they're choosing to kill kids on, which bothers me more.

Don't revoke it, just apply it: "well-regulated militia". Regulate, then !

So, people who don't want guns around them, kids, drunks, are the ones at fault ?

Lol. My gun is not welcome, so I'm not welcome. Whiny snowflake much ? How insecure can one be ? Conferences are much safer for not NOT allowing guns. Don't play the victim, and don't hurt anyone please. As for trademark cont

"Southern gentleman" conjures up the image of a white-suited Kevin Spacey in "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil". Not sure it makes for a strong claim to respectability/morality, both fictionally and IRL ;-p
