Nothing in my reply was incorrect. If you feel so strongly about it make a PR or raise a request. It's much more productive than crying about it on HN.

It's Open Container Initiative. https://opencontainers.org/ There's a sibling post with this link but it's greyed out.

A 5-day-old project doesn't support more than one operating system! One the developers would have to buy dedicated devices to develop and test it on no less. Outrageous.

There was definitely a 20 minute window where it was down for us. Messages were occasionally getting through but often in the wrong order, and many just failed.

by petepete 3y ago
It does. "I couldn't care less" is a common term and "I could care less" is a misunderstanding. I'd hope more people would realise they're saying they _do care_ about something they're claiming to not

An incorrect stock phrase that means the exact opposite of what's been said. I don't think it's unreasonable to say people who get things entirely wrong are struggling.

So do humans, even smart ones. I've lost count of how many times I've heard people say "I could care less" about something they don't care about.

Hey Micael. I've been a subscriber for years, love your channel and all things macro photography in general. Really wasn't expecting you to pop up on hn!

Not really. GOV.UK Design System team have done lots of research into this and their guidance says: > Generally speaking, avoid validating the information in a field before the user has finished entering it. This sort of validation can c

I had this discussion with someone on here the other day who flat out believed I'd invented the problem. Kitty is so fast compared to anything else I've tried.

And a terminal emulator with low latency definitely helps.

It's a fairly common tactic in the UK. I've seen plenty of CCTV clips where kids cycle past people on their phones and snatch them. The thief is 10m away before the person's even reacted.

No, but the vast majority of people who understand enough IPv4 to set up a home or small office network still don't understand IPv6.

Without realising and without having had to set it up themselves.

If you have a ThinkPad, RHEL is supported on nearly every machine Ubuntu is. https://www.lenovo.com/linux Fedora works flawlessly in my experience.

I love that this looks very much like Query Analyzer, the lightweight querying tool that came with SQL Server 2000. Back then, server management, querying and profiling were handled by separate utilities that did one thing well. They were a

It's not the grepping that takes the time, it's the printing the highlighted output to the terminal. Keep up.

It's not the grep that's slow, it's the printing of a hundred thousand character minified line of JavaScript. Unintentional, but every dev's done it or similar. I used to have to kill urxvt, which I used for nearly 15 ye

It's _really_ responsive, whether you're in an editor or accidentally grepped a minified JavaScript file. I would be capable of working entirely in any modern terminal emulator, but Kitty makes it a pleasure.

In the only acquisition I've been involved in, the morning after it was officially announced we came into the office and the (brand-colour) orange walls had been painted grey.

For users who want to install something like Slack who realise their distro supports Flatpak but only Snap is available, it's definitely a source of frustration.

by petepete 4y ago
Mir, Unity, now Snap. Ubuntu has a track record of wanting to go it alone. But, I'm all for competition, long may it continue. The only real negative here is that some apps will only release Snaps, others will only release Flatpaks an

The best recommendation is to buy hardware that's well supported. Every piece of hardware on my ThinkPad X1C (including the fingerprint reader) worked with no extra config or messing around.
