There are plenty of reasons to reinvent tools that have existed for literally decades and are included in pretty much every Linux distro. 1. Someone wants to do it. Most open source is developed because someone just wants to. 2. You aren&#

Make can't (at least that I've seen) enumerate it's own commands/targets. Yes there are recipes that you can cargo cult into your make file to do that using sed/awk but natively it doesn't have a way to enumer

Ehh... you can't use an NVIDIA card without someone cracking the problem for you. Having started using Linux in the late 90's, you couldn't run linux on most systems without someone cracking the problem for you. I certainly

You can run linux ( https://asahilinux.org/ ) on them, and it actually works pretty well. Apple has also helped out Asahi Linux to some small degree to get it to work ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=295

Except that anyone who has tried to build custom apps for Garmin, knows that the ecosystem is a mess. Monkey C, just isn't good. Their API's are unstable, data transfers from apps on the watch to a phone are problematic at best.

Shouldn't and is required to by law are two different things. So yeah, maybe it shouldn't be public information, but the fact that it is, and is legally required to be, means that your information wasn't "leaked".

As a customer, I expect most of the technical advantages will be basically being a down stream consumer of ZFS. From a developer / maintainer of an OS, Dtrace and ZFS are large technical wins. Part of the overall value proposition of

Datacenter costs are weird. The first big cost is having a datacenter. However once you have the space, power, cooling and that part makes sense, then the actual hardware going into it can have a pretty decent premium and still be highly

Dell is a mixed bag depending on how well the individual region you are dealing with is doing overall. Things were great for us, but something changed and now getting good support for hardware failures has been a nightmare of jumping throu

My reply was to contextualize that it wasn't a lie. Maybe a poor choice of words, but given the context on the page, it's clear what it is talking about, which isn't the application being cross platform. A lie implies decep

It is not a lie, it just doesn't mean exactly what you want it to, and is certainly unintentionally misleading. You can work with code remotely on any machine.
