If the severity of punishment for violations was high enough, we would only need very few example cases, before it stops.

Yes, that's what I mean. I have used open source software before, and deployed it and so on, but no one has ever offered me to work 1 day a week or something like that during my job hours on an open source project, contributing somethi

Syphoned off a lot more data to Samsung though, further supporting and enabling their ugly business practices.

I mean, containers are working fine like that. Choose any hoster you want, either specifically supporting docker deployment or bare metal and host your containers. It's just that many tools come with bad images or bad documentation on

The complaint here is, that those business are not necessarily "bringing people into the community", unless you are talking about passive users, who do not contribute. The businesses simply use the stuff built at no cost to rake i

I think people getting time sponsored working on FOSS is quite rare. Would like to do that myself, but instead I just develop in my free time.

I think often it takes time to build relationships with others, so that they can love you back. And that is much easier, when you have a lot of money. What's more is, many people looking for a partner are looking for a social step upwa

For a non-golang-user, what have they done to the language in that regard?

Ah, that's what magit does by default.

This has the disadvantage though, that this user level gitignore file will not be in the repo, which means that other less careful contributors have to fix ignoribg for themselves.

It is easy to do a rebase, adding more files to an already pushed commit. It is impossible to be sure, that no one has read already leaked secrets. Err on the side of caution.

I don't like them, because they contain all sort of crap, that never even enters my projects, but they don't include things they should include, like the silly ".vscode" folder so many people commit without thinking. Als

Magit of course also solves this very nicely.

"git add ." ... so annoying to watch people do that, when "git add -u" is right there ... and even when you tell them why it is a bad habit, they continue doing it. I can only assume, that it is due to overly relying on

Before uv there was poetry, and before poetry there was pipenv, before pipenv there was virtualenv. I wish people would stop portraying Python tooling completely wrong like that. uv is not the first tool to solve most problems in this space

Perhaps interesting: Japanese chess, Shogi, is usually played on a 9x9 board, but there are many variants, which are played on bigger boards. Though games take longer and those variants are played rarely. It scales, but I think it's fa

I read this comment before looking at the article and thought that the grandmaster beat the AI even giving the AI 2 stones. Too bad. But this way around is of course more realistic. And of course you would need to take into consideration th

I remember this being the default for a while already. When I signed up and got an API key, I remember I did turn off the training option specifically, so it must have already been a default to have training on input on.

They jump to such tools, because they are not that invested in making and having the optimal tool for their job, and don't want to spend time setting things up. Especially, not in their own time, if they even do any projects in their o

GP said Google Search is dead, in a way, not Google itself. Google is just to an overwhelmingly part an ad business at this point. And people hate their annoying ads. So people hate Google search, and Google ads. Basically, the majority of

It's also got to do with the structures, that make the governing body of the EU, if it lets bought politicians again and again push hostile agendas, against the will of the people inside the EU, and inching ever closer to that, which w

Hm OK thanks for the pointers. Point 1: I don't know whether tkinter's treeview has screen reader support. I will have to look into that. But what I did already do is to make it focusable, which it wasn't by default, I believ

Additionally, I found, that simply sticking to web standards, instead of reimplementing everything in JavaScript, goes a long way towards accessibility.

I have a traditional desktop app/GUI app, where I have a table (treeview) of words with their translations and pronunciation (like a dictionary). There can be thousands of words in there. Also there is a filter/search field, where

I tend to believe that dark matter is a name for something we don't understand better yet. I don't necessarily mean MOND or anything specifically, but dark matter is just a little too mysterious and convenient for my taste. Maybe

I also tried lsp-mode first but then thought "Let's see what the built-in has to offer, if that's simpler." and am sticking with eglot since then. It does enough for me, and the configuration is manageable.

That's an interesting point actually. Most places in China and even quite rural ones are livable and reachable via public transport including trains. Most of their big cities are very convenient to get around in just by walking and met
