Not exactly. You bid farewell with “proschayte” (literally begging for forgiveness) or “vsevo dobrava” (wishing all the kind/best), but “do svidaniya” has a hint of looking forward to meet your counterpart again.

Genau! Actually, this perfect duality also extends to other phrases, like “priyatnava appetita”, just like Guten Appetit! At the same time, in Ukrainian you’d say “smachnogo”, similar to Swedish “smaklig måltid” (lecker Mahlzeit), as “smak”

I actually wanted to write “vsevó Vam dóbrava” (o not under stress often becomes a) but changed it to an grammatical transliteration for some reason.

by smarx007 5y ago
It does mean exactly that, though not literally (there are only two words in the phrase literally).

by smarx007 5y ago
That is true, thank you for pointing it out. My personal preference is "vsego Vam dobrogo", which is even more respectful (it translates roughly as "All the kind (best) to You").

To add a bit more, "svidaniye" means a date, and "Do svidaniya" literally means "till [our next] date". In English, "see you" or "see you later" translates closest to the original phrase in

Of course, nobody "refused" to fix a "bug". Instead, a non-conformant behavior was already relied upon by legacy systems out in the wild and the "fix" was added in a backwards-compatible way. Edit: Three bytes

I have observed two common reactions in companies not willing to sponsor open-source: 1. "Do you mean we will pay money to develop software for our competitors? Murder!" 2. The OSS donations are not seen as business expense but as

There is a wiki extension to embed RDF data: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LinkedWiki There is a WP plugin to expose some basic data: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-linked-data/

RDF is a labeled multigraph data model with URI-based predicates as edge labels, where each triple represents an edge. You are right that relational data can be exposed in RDF, just like CSV can be loaded into a graph DB.

Wow, self-DMCA is… another level. From the post you linked: “only the statement that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright holder is made under penalty of perjury.” There is some clever English grammar in the

Good time to ask how the “penalty of perjury” works (or supposed to)? Who is supposed to enforce it? I think every infringement notice has a statement with those words.

28 or 90 day average shows essentially the same thing but with less noise. Showing a 365 day average is actually good for the casual observer to remove holiday/seasonal fluctuations and show YoY growth.

I don't think that most workloads are webapps and many webapps are not just CRUD. HN is not the web either, in case HN formed such a viewpoint for you.

Chinese manufacturers have a great value but the output quality is not 100% reliable. Couple it with difficult returns on Aliexpress and you get the picture. I watch FP vlogs and saw people get 5 Jinhaos and only 3 would have a nib with ali

As a leftie and a fountain pen user, I think the choice (matching) of paper is often overlooked. Earlier I was after “the right pen” and now I know which pens will work well on which kinds of paper. Sadly, it means that Rhodia premium paper

What @mellow said plus you (a) may need a bit of practice and (b) get a pen with a better grip. I usually write 2-3 A5 pages a day, so writing 5+ would make my hand a bit stiff. If you write less than a page a day, you may want to take it e

To be fair, I rejoined most of the channels on Libera AND stayed in the Freenode channels to keep an eye on them (until they wiped all accounts overnight, didn’t re-register).
