Not an american here, so it's more of a general comment. I'm all for investing in and investigating nuclear power -- after all, the humanity needed several decades to make electricity itself safe at all; if we manage to make nucle

There is touch typing and correct touch typing. "Home row" and friends is the latter. I'm typing pretty fast with all ten fingers in both German and Russian layouts, however, I've never became friends with classical touc

Nitpicking, but FWIW that's not the definition of a bus factor I've learned. It's a number of people to be hit by a bus for the project to die. Bus factor of one is a SPOF, so you need to increase your factor, not decrease it

Yes, it will. Normally, the IT department would roll-out their MitM CA certificates globally into Windows trusted certificates store or something like it. However, if you are trying to do CI/CD on a Linux server, you have to manually p

From personal experience: it doesn't take a FAANG type of scale to reveal those "potholes". For most open-source projects (and especially things like pip, npm and other infrastructure and build tools) a simple, almost classic

I've got a P53 for work and I can think of a thousand reasons why this didn't pan out yet. One major problem is still updating your firmwares. While you can update your BIOS and "embedded controller" ( https://

"Microsoft Linux" would be the most EEE thing they could do and I don't think anyone here expects that. However, it would be nice if there has been a bit less fuss about Microsoft going open-source. They should do just what e

Adding to the Microsoft/FLOSS debate: I'm extremely cautious about their current efforts. I do not trust them. At all. I don't actually need to trust them, since I've left their ecosystem for Linux some 18 years ago and

We've been lamenting the github-centralization of open-source for years now, this might be the wake-up call people have been waiting for. Rightly so. Gitlab ops people might be in for a treat tonight.

I have a very strange feeling that GDPR will end up resetting the internet (in a good way). It's already astonishing how we're getting unsubscribed from every possible mailing list we didn't want to be on in the first place,

Rancher, the container orchestration, is pretty much dead too, since it's K8s-based from (upcoming) 2.0 on, i.e. it's becoming a K8s distribution and has to compete with K8s itself, OpenShift and probably upcoming open-sourced edi

You are right when it comes to streets and bicycle lanes and such. When talking about usability, display quality and search, not so much. I realize the value lies in the data, but for the casual map user there is a long way for OSM to go. B

One point that I think comes too short in every discussion on privacy is that you are not always in control of your data and you never can be fully. Say we consider a privacy-paranoid individual who is taking great care not to put his perso
