But that sync happens at the Project level, not Workspace level.

I never understood why Eclipse stores plugins in the workspace directory. If you have multiple workspaces that you switch between, you have to install your plugins into each of them.

Congress is going backwards! How could they even consider this bill? It's legalized genetic discrimination, and no protections on how the data can be used (or who it can be sold to).

The developers at the Wine project have mentioned multiple times in various places how sketchy and inaccurate MSDN is. Maybe MS has tried to clean that up recently, but it has a track record of inaccuracy, at best. I wouldn't be surpri

When I dared to question publicly Micro$oft's motives in releasing and open sourcing .net core, I was downvoted and swarmed by the community, who are probably just grateful for a little good will from a long time enemy. But I am convin

Scott and Mark are great. Interesting note: "Once Scott returned to the ground, the length of his telomeres returned to his pre-flight levels relatively quickly. "

Htop is great! One thing not mentioned in the article is you can interact with htop using the mouse, for example clicking on column headers to sort by that column, or selecting a process. You can get get this mouse support for example by in

What does this mean? The universe is fake? Is this along the same lines as "everything is a simulation"?

To your point about online discussions, it's made worse by most websites getting rid of usernames, and replacing them with your real name. Or worse even, they use a Facebook discussion plugin, so whatever you say is attached to your Fa

But if the new FCC Commissioner's mind is already made up before he takes the job, there is no incentive to listen to our concerns.

If this is true, I really have to wonder why there is no evidence of this. Gov't already had their chance to release evidence in their 25 page JAR report, but after reading it, I found 0 evidence of Russia being responsible for the DNC

There seems to be 2 distinct justifications for this. 1. The plane has to be at a safe weight to fly. I'm ok with this. 2. The airline wants to charge more money for heavier passengers. This is getting into discrimination territory.

Why is this a manual process? Is our technology not sufficient to build a plane that can detect when it has too much weight on board for a safe flight?

I half-agree. If this issue was discussed in public rather than in private, perhaps the details could have been worked out without the whole proposal being withdrawn. But because of the Github thread and HN thread, this proposal is finally

This is a great summary of the situation Brendan, thanks for the clarification about TC-39 committee not actually getting to review the proposal. The main issue regarding the proposal and its sudden withdrawal seems to be an all-around lack

Looks like it's 3 main things: * Each directory authority generating a random hash at midnight, a "global random value", no info on how this will be used yet. * "Single" Onion services, dropping the anonymity requir

I agree completely with the sentiments of this article, but it didn't touch enough on what's preventing the mainstreaming of cryptography and security. The two big reasons I see every day are: 1. Cryptography is difficult to use e

Right, this exactly. Also, why is every response with a hint of negativity towards google getting down voted? If Google was doing the right thing, they wouldn't have to be shielded from online criticism.

When the people designing the language are the same people providing the implementation, it leads to vendor lock in. Remember Microsoft in the 1990's, remember the massive Antitrust case about IE?

I also read that as Google will refuse to implement features if it doesn't get it's way in how they are designed. Perhaps the people providing the Environment shouldn't be the people designing the language? Google is very qui

It's only a coincidence that the most vocal opponents to this proposal each receive a paycheck from Google? I'm starting to wonder why these TC's have so many Google employees, and you can claim it's because "they h

It sounds like some Google employees on TC-39 had significant resistance to the idea, and it is worrisome that employees of a private company can block proposals in favor of "their" way, in what is supposed to be an open and trans

Thanks, there seems to be a lot of downvoting on HN based on disagreement rather than substance :(

Qubes OS itself is a nice idea. I worry about the commercialization aspect, though. Will the Qubes Team be sharing a portion of their commercial profit with members of the Open Source Community who have previously contributed to Qubes OS?
