If you're a small team or solo developer, fossil just works. Highly recommended.

That's why I switched to Fossil and now spend more time writing code than trying to deal with Git CLI weirdness.

Good questions. I'm also interested and I'm planning to test it out first thing tomorrow. But from the FAQs, this project seemed to be around since 1997 (not C++ back then though) so I'm guessing it should be pretty stable.

Are there any other active directories? Seems Yahoo Directory is also gone for good.

That's correct. Fossil is just a single binary and all the 'artifacts' in the repo are stored in a single sqlite file. The built-in server works really well or it can also be used with CGI.

I use fossil for all my projects. It's very lightweight and almost set it and forget it system. Remarkable.

A few years ago I had to learn stick shift because there was a good deal on a car I liked and decided to see if it's worth it. Ever since, all my cars are standard transmission and I wouldn't have it any other way. They're de

If it's really just 6% of tax evasion, then I honestly think this is just a political decision trying to keep their promises.

I don't know if there is a better option but the GoI definitely didn't think this throughly. Countries that demonetized in the past did this over a span of a time to prevent panic and fear. If the Govt set a deadline instead of ab

That might be true, but your Indian colleagues are probably well off with much of their transactions happening in plastic/electronic anyways, so this will have very little effect on their day to day lives. Since much of the Indian econ

Love fossil. I use it for all my projects. Simple and easy to learn CLI (unlike some other popular DVCS) and the built-in issue tracker/wiki is very helpful. For indie devs or small teams fossil 'just works'.

May be I'm old fashioned, but unless I'm buying something expensive I stick to just cash. Always works. Ironically, now I consider cash more 'secure' than plastic.

I assume they'll eventually release a technical specification that allows other clients to interoperate. I think it's better to get the usability right and other aspects polished first.

Very cool. I hope this becomes at least a niche success and the price comes down in future versions.

I don't think IMAP support is going away. This is just a better API for devs to create apps for Gmail.

I mostly use Evernote for clipping webpages for later reference (images, pdfs etc). I still haven't found quite an easy to use replacement. Most of the evernote replacements seem to concentrate only on text/lists.

AFAIK, that driver only applies to CUDA and other proprietary Nvidia platforms, not necessarily OpenGL.

ATI drivers are horrible on the Mac OS X platform too, even though Apple controls all their drivers on the platform. Even though Intel's GPUs are slow their drivers are very stable and work most of the time.

Usually, when compiling projects that use Boost libraries which are sometimes very template heavy, the compile times are very long in my experience. Especially, something like the Boost Spirit.
