I guess, but they're not exactly useful when carried around individually in a pocket.

Interesting that they decided to stick with the "Pocket Operator" name despite the fact that these can fit in nobody's pockets.

It should probably be noted also that this doesn't even seem to be using textures updated with normal & specular maps. This is probably why all the surfaces appear a bit plasticky.

I'm still desperately waiting for CMYK support (not that I've personally done much to help the situation).

And what counts as "foreign aid"? How much of that "foreign aid" was paying for massive projects completed by largely US contractors rebuilding things that they blew up in the first place?

This. WebFaction, in my eyes, is as good as shared hosting can get. Built an entire company on top of its robustness & trustworthiness. I was beyond dismayed when I heard the news of the acquisition (sorry, "partnership") and

For part 2, try porting it to rpython and see how hard it is to turn it into a full JIT.

It absolutely can, but in my experience, 99% of the time, choosing to make a data field JSON/JSONB ends up being a mistake.

There are also a couple of subtle details of the OSM editing model that could make it a lot easier for a knowledgeable vandal to make changes that are rather more painful to undo than they should be.

Really? Does RISC-V have delay slots? To me, this is one of the biggest differentiating factors in ISAs.

I would class a number of Microsoft's releases of source under that category.

I may have missed the boat here but is there any word on the possibility of Microsoft open-sourcing EdgeHTML?

"Non-native" is a much fuzzier term than it seems. There wasn't really any absolute blessed state of perfection that populations were in before humans started having an impact on the world, you know.

It would have disastrous consequences for the food chain - the bird population in particular being hit hard.

I'm not saying that they don't happen, but they are extremely slow to gain traction because of various things including OS support.

But the whole point of QUIC is that it is a userspace implementation. From the QUIC viewpoint (and I take no sides in this) kernel implementation is death for a protocol because it freezes its specification and behaviour in slow-to-update

This is the way I actually started using Nix in deployment. You can run a full Nix installation from within a home directory without any special permissions. Frustrated with the inflexibility of a shared hosting provider running CentOS, we

But also a consequence of having to float on top of non-free/uncontrollable base libraries. The only reason Nix works so well on Linux is because it can be in control of everything down to the kernel. For (presumably) this reason, ni
