Yeah, this is why I said it devalued the usefulness of the stat. It goes both ways though. There are people who checked that they use Ubuntu when they're on Mac or Windows the majority of the time, but there are also people that checke

Linux Desktop isn't perfect, but it's in no way a dumpster fire. I'm much happier using Linux than any other viable alternative. Your experience clearly differs, but I personally have very few complaints at this point. Callin

I'm confused by your comment. This is an article about AI potentially helping with treatment of cancer. I strongly disagree in any case that we shouldn't be investing in AI. I think that there's likely a rising tides lifts al

There is a limit to how much time I want to spend learning how to do things like that, and then configuring and dealing with a broken system when my exploration goes awry. It's a valid reason.

Yeah, all of the major subreddits are gamed, especially subs like r/politics. Even going back to the 2016 election it was clear that much of the activity on there was not genuine.

I think you have to consider that these conversations are taking place in public. When people reply, they're not necessarily replying to convince the person they're speaking directly to (this is often impossible), but rather to co

Unfortunate for sure, but it should hardly be surprising if you choose a distro with a small userbase and limited set of maintainers. If it's a significant inconvenience for someone, they should re-evaluate their decision making proces

Perhaps worth mentioning is that someone attempted to port this to Rust and got about 60,000 lines of code into it before archiving the project. I feel like comparing these two efforts would be an interesting case study on the impacts /

I am very happy to see this. I'm also excited to see what successor language they choose. I wasn't expecting them to integrate with another language, I'm curious to see what they go with.
