My issue with bash completion is that it requires a completion script (i.e executing `complete`) for each command you want it to complete. The shell cannot automatically deduce appropriate completions when possible. This problem is not spec

> "normal pronouns"? What english language speakers normally use when refering to a person, usually based on the perceived gender of said person.

This may be insensitive (and I apologize if it is) but if being referenced by normal pronouns is enough to drive someone to commit suicide (or cause emotional distress), I'd argue that this person is in more need of medical treatment t

The problem here is that people aren't being asked; they're being forced and, in this case, punished. You don't get to dictate others actions just as they don't dictate yours. When you do, don't be surprised when pe

Apple is already facing antitrust actions regarding its walled garden. I doubt apple would be eager to give authorities more ammunition. Alternative app stores will likely come to ios in one form or another. I think the smarter reaction wou

So what you're saying is that people should loose their jobs because they say something you don't like. Democracy is what gave homosexuals rights and it doesn't work unless everyone gets to express their opinion. Even people

The problem with non-techsavvy people is that they don't have an understanding of how seemingly innocuous data can be misused. My favorite counter to the "I have nothing to hide" argument is what happened during WW2 when the

I've been bitten by this with sony removing Other Os from PS3. I haven't bought anything "smart" from Sony since. Not phones, laptops, game consoles, TVs. Nothing. In fact, I don't think I bought anything sony sin

SHA2 is not designed to be used as a RNG. SHA3 might be a little bit better with its "streaming" modes, but there are many far better and faster ways to get random bits.

The request here is for a simpler API. I and many others would be more than happy to get a function that returns a random u64. No traits, no crippling commitments to a specific API design.

How does this number relate to the number of KDE and LXQT/LXDE installations?

I hoped there would be more focus on how their web assembly support will be improved (specifically, how they intend to handle the narrow viewports of mobile devices). Web Assembly QT enables a really nice way for customers to mess with an a

This reminds me of firefox's telemetry for people who turn off telemetry [1]. None of the big three browsers respect your privacy enough to not track you in any way. Not a single one. Here's to hoping that a browser that truly r
