Ask them during the interview stage. Sometimes a strange/obscure language is the correct choice for a very good (and fun/interesting!) reason.

Not necessarily. Ubuntu LTS kernel is often very far behind and you have to rely on Canonical to backport drivers for you. e.g. Vulkan on my 5700 XT didn't work (despite AMD being very good at writing kernel drivers!) because the Ubunt

You’re not going to convince me otherwise dude. :) I have consoles and a powerful gaming PC. I use both regularly. For me they’re good for different things. My Nintendo Switches get the most use.

You’ve missed the point. I don’t want to setup and configure yet another computer.

I already spend all day sat at my desk. I was a “PC gamer” for years, but consoles are better for plug and play group/sofa gaming.

I got an Ender 3 a few years ago and it is one of the best purchases I have ever made. I’ve repaired so many things with it, and engaged in so many new hobbies. Having a device in your house that can, within reason, magic any item you can d

Here on Linux, it (the Superlight) just works. There's libratbag[0] if you want to mess with some DPI settings. 0: https://github.com/libratbag/libratbag

I think many of the commenters here are confusing overthinking projects (what the article is about[1]) and risks (not what the article is about). Is it sensible to think long and hard about the behaviour of a strategy which trades real mone

This is interesting because it’s trivial to use someone else’s Siri and make it search whatever you want. (I can trigger my partners with 75% reliability if I just speak in a high pitched voice)

I’m focusing mainly on the hardware here. If your sole advantage is being able to strong arm your customers into paying you for repair, then that’s shameful. FWIW I’m guilty of typing this from my iPhone.

It’s really nice when they do this but the no JavaScript ship has sailed. I’d rather devs focus on accessibility for screen readers etc.
