Legit question: do you ever feel conflicted about the impact of this kind of advertising on the world? And do you ever hear your peers in the industry feeling conflicted or remorseful like this?

It's different enough that users will immediately complain if you get it wrong. And it means that you, as a developer who might not understand either Chinese or Japanese, now has to deal with the fallout by setting a different font i

Do we really need even more stuff delegated to systemd? What's wrong with grub?

The repeated use of the word "Americans" in this piece, where what they mean is "people" is particularly jarring...

I dont really get how people were able to just walk into military bases. Shouldn't they have fences? And if there's no fence, isn't it just public land that it's OK to walk on?

My trust of bloomberg has been pretty low since the spy chip story, that seems to have been just a hoax. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2018-10-04/the-big-h...

I'd be interested to see a current version of ZOL (zfs on Linux) in that table. I suspect it would hold up quite well.

I don't care much about fancy features. I just want a simple debugger GUI in my IDE that works consistently, and never crashes. Until I have that, I feel like pursuing even more functionality is pointless. (Context: c++ developer on Li

Honestly, I don't think they did nail it, specifically regarding customising the pizza visually. Sure, some sites let you do this but noone cares really. I think the main draw is you don't to talk to anyone. Not having to have a s

I use koreader on my Kobo Clara HD, but it's frustratingly "open sourcey". I say that as an ardent FOSS enthusiast who runs Linux as his primary os. What I mean by that is: bad ux, difficult to install, millions of super spec

Is it still flammable though? I can't see anyone cladding an apartment building in flammable material, especially not after the Grenfell tower fire.

I honestly think we just need to have light and dark modes built in. If you want to modify the dark theme a bit, go ahead, but since the original dev knew the background should be dark and the foreground light, it should be OK. The problem

Partially because people don't want it to be, too. Irish people have an obsession with land, and see any dwelling that isn't at least a semidetached house with a back garden as a "temporary space" for students and unmarr
