Indeed. And think about the amount of damage accomplished by those people who do everything that's asked of them.

I'll be also trying this on xorg, see if that helps any.

Gnome-shell keeps crashing due to a libgobject segfault. About 4 times a day. No idea where the fault is, and even more amusingly, my other laptop works fine on the same settings. Price of complex software, I suppose.

How did Slack and Hipchat beat (in the short term at least) Basecamp? Basecamp costs flat $100 per month and has several other tools besides just chatting. https://basecamp.com/ As an aside, I'd like to see more tools

Well, yes. My dislike of PHP took a steep dive right around the time I didn't have to use it anymore. It's obviously way easier to dislike something you use, and even more easy if it's something you have to use.

If you mean software developers and not UX designers, that's silly. You get crisp text on 640x480 if you use bitmap fonts.

Gnome 3 seems quite fine, at least how it is in Fedora 27. It's rather pretty by default, and with Wayland, it handles things like multi-monitor DPI better than anything else I've seen. And not only in Linux side, but also versus

FWIW, many OpenBSD tools use a configuration language that's not too far from HCL. I'm much more confused by the industry using the difficult to parse (for both humans and computers) YAML for everything.

Zookeeper is industry standard? I guess that explains why it's such a mess.

Perhaps some current or upcoming EU regulation (GDPR anyone?) will stop them from milking their users. Is it the whole Europe though, or just the smaller countries?

Do they lock out also paying customers, i.e. those with a gsuite account?

>Don’t expect too much, GNOME considers proper HiDPI out of scope and only supports 96dpi and 192dpi (and other integer multiples) Argh. That's depressing. But still, Gnome with Wayland is the only DE I've seen that gracefully

No, not joking. I have some French courses under my belt from my childhood, but I never got very fluent with it because I never had any use for it. Having an actual need to use the language would be great.

Yeah, I know people are working on cloning i3. Perhaps these attempts will be successful some day, but so far, they are very lacking compared to what Gnome gives.

Oddly, I'm more fascinated that I'll be able to learn French reading through the materials of that course. Perhaps Smalltalk will follow on the side :)

I'm so ready to jump from my i3 setup to Gnome if they get the tiling even half as good as i3's is. Why? Because of Wayland (which gives me proper (Hi)DPI support for multiple monitors) and integration that I don't have to tw

>Swift has no quality high-level concurrency primitives - until those arrive, Swift is a complete non-starter as a server language. That's just false. Server-side projects that require concurrency are a tiny minority.

Indeed. I realize the guy I answered to was probably just trolling, but it was very effective. To suggest that Rasmus should get academic praise for PHP is highly insulting.

Check out Chef's https://habitat.sh for one fresher take on all this. It moves the containerization approach closer to something that feels like Arch Linux packaging, with a pinch of Nix-style reproducibility. Looks very pr

PHP in general is easy to write. Philosophically, it's all over the map due to mostly historical reasons. People say that the current development team are making it better and I don't disagree. There's just so much you cannot

Is there a PHP modding squad in Hacker News? Legitimate, non-offensive anecdotes are getting downvoted in this thread while all positive comments are being upvoted. I think I've seen such a trend rising in the past few years, but I was
