It's not a technical problem. It's that they need to stay too-big-to-fail, to be able to resist the very aggressive competition of other aircraft manufacturers. If they are broken up, the smaller companies would not be able to com

Breaking Boeing up would make it ineffective and likely lead to its failure. You could maybe spin off a couple small divisions, but not more than that. Nationalization is a non-starter in the US - not worth wasting the time and effort to tr

I use SMPlayer as a front end for mpv (you can select mplayer or mpv as backend). Not sure if that is common or even a good idea. But I am generally happy with it.

For me not really. Open tabs are a TODO list, that are organized by work session. They get opened next to each other while I am working, and when I come back to that work, I find the tab group. I clean them up when I no longer need certain

it's not the same thing. Tab completion is useful and will complete something you know of. But it does not help you discover something you don't know, or provide you the syntax of the command after it is entered. The problem I wou

From another perspective, just because others are having success, does not mean one should not recognize one's own. It is not a zero sum game here, it's win-win. Also, the article indicates it is more likely over 40% growth for 20

Sure they are. If somebody has a proprietary product that they happened to organize as a fork of an open source base at some point, it is exposed. The git organization aside, that is a very common business model.

This walks like a dark pattern and quacks like a dark pattern. People's entire livelihoods are at stake and they don't care. Most likely because plausible deniability and obscure TOS rights of how and when the code is used is more

100% agree, but the first item is status: work in progress, and the second item is the todo list with 'add rationales' and links as the top issue.

So it's not really immunity they are after, but super-immunity. It's not enough that he should be found not guilty in most or almost all cases, but that he should not even be accused, even have his actions inspected or judged. The

That was my thought as well. Just use some form of acoustical fingerprinting. It would be very simple to do, and would be both robust and flexible.

I tend to think this type of failure is from utter lack of caring. They know it's there, they know it's a security hole, but are just too lazy to deal with it until it comes back to bite them.

Biggest country when talking about economics is almost invariably in reference to population. And they appear to be talking about the EU, otherwise we would have to include Turkey, and another country we would rather not.

Because they were utter charlatans, and for such egregious behavior, an example must be set. And now they have to go all-electric, so everybody wins - including them.
