That is simply not how the vaccine was presented by authorities and the media. They literally said the vaccine will stop you from getting it and stop transmission. It took them months to acknowledge you could still get it and spread it with

The post itself with no further context about what the OP wants us to see about Moodle, is fodder for moderation. It's not a new project, so if it's a TIL this is a thing, then post that, if its "Moodle releases x.0" the

That's not the title. It's just Moodle, with zero context. I'm left wondering if there is something on the page the OP wants us to see, like the upcoming conference, some new release, etc. If its new, usually you put a Show H

That's a major gap, there's no third party oversight, and they have all kinds of incentives to fudge the testing in their favor, including how they collect the samples, what's done in the labs, etc. If criminal investigative

It's a problem for most government institutions we rely on to protect us. There is a revolving door between them and the companies they're supposed to keep in check/regulate when it comes to those in high positions.

If you were running Apache fine, I think Linux in the late 90s was the work horse of web servers. That might have been the one thing that just worked. I was using it as a workstation and for everything else. Try getting your window manager

I had the dependency spiral issue on every distro (I played with quite a few), compiling with something like Gentoo made it worse. RPM Forge existed, I think the Linux experience in general was bad back then, and RedHat actually was one of

That level of backwards compatiblity with legacy versions exists on other platforms (Windows, z/OS, AIX), especially those implemented in enterprise environments. If I have a Windows app written in Win32 API, it'll run on Windows

Current development was better done on Fedora, the upstream of RHEL, I think they were pretty clear that's what it was for. RHEL was for when you needed everything to work no matter what. Fedora was for new development and latest and g

I think you're romanticizing it. Until RHEL and LTS releases for Debian/Ubuntu, most distros you never knew if running and update was going to break something because there simply wasn't effective quality control testing in t

RH 9 is different than RHEL 9. Just like Windows 11 is different from Windows 98 (98 doesn't mean it's newer). They went through a rebranding from RedHat Linux to RedHat Enterprise Linux over a decade ago but after or during the S

Yeah but in NJ, that's 35k-45k in most other states. Not really worth bragging about. If it was over 100k for NJ, I'd say it was an leading. 75k there just barely pays rent on a small apartment. 60k is okay in some areas, personal

My guess from what I've heard, or at least a factor. A lot of cheap money (low interest govt loans, etc) as part of the market propping up in April 2020, and beyond lead to a lot of incoming capital for a lot of these companies. I thin
