That's a bit redundant with current top post, but I think this site is really cool, not because of the calculator. I think the calculator itself isn't really useful, though I could be wrong. (The reason why I think it's not r

The article is pretty interesting and I learned quite a few things, but it looks like the author is knowingly not answering the issue they raise by themselves. In my opinion, the most important thing distros does that is incompatible with h

I really don't know how Windows' automatic upgrades work, but I would be baffled if an UART driver was updated on-the-fly while it's being used. If I receive constant 1Mbps stream, the PLL doesn't even have time to stop&

LTS' security record is definitely not to be proven. The example we're currently commenting on this thread is only one occurence. It is highly re-occuring. RHEL fixes only CVEs. Linus Torvalds consider there is no such thing as a

"maintaining your own kernel" in this context means that you're bringing bugfixes (including security) independently from the mainline Linux kernel, which would usually involve cherry-picking commits from the mainline. Archli

Actually LTS does break ABI, but gregkh is working with Android to make a partially ABI-stable LTS (I assume it would be a fork of the real LTS though?). I know they are also working with RH and Suse, but I don't know if RH and Suse wi

IMO the real issue is that Facebook wanted a commercially-usable product, and they thought Kaggle had all the safeguards for that, but no: Because of RGPD and friends, Facebook can't store those photos, even though their license are pe

> Getting the values would only let you recalculate the results, not discover why the results were produced. It also allows you to calculate new results, which can be used to detect when the system is actually wrong, and to detect bias.

We already have micro-payments, and it's called ads. It is pretty transparent to the user, there is no per-transaction fixed cost (though the margin taken by Ad provider is pretty huge), and some people are living pretty nicely with it

Nope. The usb-c on rPi doesn't do usb 2.0. I think that when plugging an usb-c into an usb-c, we can assume it won't explode, but that's pretty much it. And I wouldn't totally bet on it.

Linux development is hardly waterfall development. Take io_uring. It started with a very small subset of syscalls and they are now adding new ones at every release at every stage. Take bpf. It was meant for networking, and it is slowly tran

It definitely is a standard, defined by 3GPP. Apple alone doesn't get to decide what is a standard. Google's Messaging app is just one implementation of the protocol. There are other implementations, that are actually used. Samsun
