UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 are different encodings of the same character set, so i'm not sure what you mean in UTF-16 captures really a very large share of actually used code points . next, your claim that UTF-8 is not well suited for

it's not that ddg can't index the pages you're looking for or connect your query with those pages. it's that google knows so much about you they skew the results heavily.

can you be more specific with the "just statement generation" allegation? it looks like you're talking about `pg_dump --format=plain`, which is the default but far from the only option.

authors struggle for correctness and preciseness of thought and words; very few achieve clarity of either. there are authors whose works demonstrate possibility of high-quality textbooks in absense of any "qutesy" or other noise.

based on my experience with language detection on my own repos i'm very skeptical of this kind of statistics. for example, i know i don't know any perl6, yet github thinks (and claims) otherwise.

doing away with copyright does not seem to be on the agenda of those who are concerned with Software Freedom (notably the FSF). If it were, we could all move to CC0 from GPL and be happy. that's wrong. FSF is concerned with preservi

The historical way lots of content came into the public domain is death. That's why plenty of artists [...] died relatively penniless. can you expand on this? how does lifelong copyright cause artist poverty? i'm not signallin

Stash may not be the cash cow that JIRA is but it seems to make more money than Bitbucket does. My assessment of Atlassian's approach to Bitbucket is based on me observing them handling tickets for it (stonewalling for years), and oth

It need not become one to be a problem (just as it is a boon). The benefit of frictionless contributions is real, the problem of loss of federation is real just as much, and leads to the loss of community. We're animals. The feeling

Google Code was never a core business of Google. The free-as-in-beer parts of github.com are not (guaranteed to be) a core business of Github either. Just look how lousy Atlassian is with bitbucket.org; their core business is Stash.
