Yes, but unlike with realloc and a custom dynamic array, C++ references and smart pointers and containers are half-smart and do all sorts of things on their own. Knowing when they will and when they will not be "smart" makes writi

It's a dark pattern that was successfully imposed on us.

Twitter in mobile browsers is painful and slow too, at least for me, but still much better than reddit.

Wow, reddit really hates website users.

The fact that author's arguments are flawed (imo not all of them are) does not imply their claim is incorrect. A lot has been written on the topic Elsewhere, I'm sure you will be able to find some better explanations if you so des

They both lack the manpower to keep up. I personally don't mind missing on the latest features, but I don't want my software to be full of old security holes that were patched long ago in upstream Firefox. Besides, I have once wit

Not keeping to the same spec is one of the reasons why modern web is a dumpster fire.

There's a point between being too small to use up a single beefy server and being big enough to go cloud scale, where colocating a few servers and maintaining them makes sense financially in most scenarios. For companies smaller than t

Modern cars are optimized for good scores on NCAP, and higher NCAP score does not necessarily mean safer car.

Giving up on something like that is quite narrow minded. Diversity matters and monoculture is almost never a good thing. The fact that there are open operating systems other than Linux makes Linux better too.

I think the linux community really should listen to those criticisms, not only for BSD users' good but for their own as well. Unfortunately linux community is not a well defined term anymore, because there are too many people and inter

The usage of 'open' in the name is misguided.
