See how the Fediverse works - it has largely avoided becoming like Voat. Most alt-right instances, such as Gab, are hugely defederated by instance admins and therefore isolated from most of the network.

You screw up at offense if your weapons are destroyed or disabled. In case of exploits, this is exactly what happens when they leak out. Your ability to attack in this case is equivalent to keep your arms useful.

To quote myself from a different comment, I did not mean to imply that the visibility of these issues hasn't changed; it's quite obvious that these issues are much closer to the surface of everyday discourse than they were earlier

OK, that's correct; I might not have expressed myself clearly. Slightly edited my post up there. Thanks. I did not mean to imply that the visibility of these issues hasn't changed; it's quite obvious that these issues are m

I understand the position, but nowadays Twitter is full of #BlackLivesMatter posts, pride flags can be seen commonly, all while, to bring the two most currently visible things that haven't changed, the sex/race pay gaps are still

Doing cheap PR moves like blacking out logos or posting Twitter "support" posts from CEO accounts or announcing the end of default branches named "master" is, as I said, cheap. The real issue is dealing with the elephant

Here I used it in context of heavily optimized, little commented and very dense source code, which has some resemblance to the "encrypted obfuscated binary" that you mention.

It's good that this happened! The original LZMA sources from Peter Pavlov are highly condensed and unreadable; they contain little to no comments and are hard to understand, and therefore reverse engineer.

Common Lisp does that. There is a portability library that provides an implementation-independent interface to that functionality for Lisp programmers: https://github.com/scymtym/trivial-with-current-source-form

I think that and the resulting unemployment boom certainly contributes, but you seem to miss the obvious point here - that the Black and Brown people of US have other objective reasons to protest about, too.

The article mentions the abbreviation ULEC, but it does not define it. Does anyone know what it means?

Yes. "How fast is the installation process for each database on the same hardware?"

The fact that something is unenforceable is a poor way of stopping rich lawyer-based companies, such as Oracle, from attempting to enforce it nonetheless.

Why not? Installation time and disk size are two values that may be important for some customers, and measuring those might therefore be considered benchmarks.

In one of the Star Wars movies, there was a hooded and cloaked figure who, in response to that very same question, said, "I will make it legal." There's no proof that figure wasn't Larry Ellison. /s

Likely the OP means PostGIS where they say Postgres. PostGIS is the set of geospatial extensions for Postgres.

Not really an error, since it is syntactically valid C++. It could definitely trigger a compiler warning, though.

This is a PEBKAC, not a problem with REPL-driven development. He had all the test bodies written as input in the REPL, he had all the test results printed as output in the REPL. Why didn't he turn these into unit tests as he programmed

This is what they want, since they release Qt under LGPL. If they wanted to prohibit static linking altogether, then they would use GPL exclusively.

> That's the equivalent of creative accounting for software developers. That's precisely what makes LGPL the LGPL. If it is a dick move, it is a FSF-endorsed, widely deployed, and widely used dick move.
