Maybe I'm living in a parallel reality, but there are plenty of Slack alternatives and plenty of companies using Slack clones such as Mattermost and Zulip, among others. And yes, they work just fine.

Most European governments have already, in their own (weak) way expressed that this intervention isn't legitimate according to international law.

You're saying only facts and somehow getting downvoted, I guess denial is easier for some people.

"Don't worry, the democracy will eventually trickle down". There is such thing as a post-Vietnam America, and its record is pretty bad.

It does differ, in ways that many others listed below. That doesn't make it any legitimate, though.

And kidnapping their president in violation of every international law. No big deal /s Seriously, I'm patiently waiting for the day America or Russia will do the same to Netanyahu, who is an actual war criminal. Not holding my bre

Muhrica gonna muhrica. It's been like this since time immemorial, the "regime" changes but the modus operandi is the same. True for all other empires.

EULAs can impose limitations on how you use on-premises software. Sure, you can ignore the EULA, but you can also do so on SaaS, to an extent.

I first tried the demos on Firefox and was like "wow, this looks fancy". Then, I saw there was a "Chrome-only" warning. I actually prefer the way it looks on Firefox, TBH.

Highly recommended. "In our time" is incredibly informative, and we're so lucky to live in an era where we can enjoy the endless recordings of this show!

DeepSeek is not Open Source. That's like saying that Microsoft Edge is Open Source, as you can download it for free. https://huggingface.co/blog/open-r1

Looking forward to seeing the ECJ order Meta to sell its European operations to a European company.

I know these might have very interesting and even noble applications (think hearing-impaired people), but the last thing I would want in my life is looking even more at screens.

I absolutely love the RP2040, and the PIO is extremely useful.

Doesn't Blender's main rendering engine, Cycles, sort of use ray tracing (path tracing, I believe)?

TinyMCE is switching to a licensing model akin to CKeditor's.

Wow, that's a very opinionated take, to say the least. Especially when by Europe we mean three dozen countries or so, all of them with their own history, policies and laws. A little bit more nuance would help.

You would still be required to provide a credit card, like when you book a rental car. The card will often be charged later, but the payment is "cleared" in advanced.

My impression is that this is a completely arbitrary signal run through a filter which shifts it to the lower end of the audible spectrum. You might as well take 20ms of the Macarena and slow them down 100x, to the same effect. Pure meaning

This TBH, I think we're so used to being taken advantage of that we don't realize we should be asking for more. Especially if it's the kind of service which doesn't involve extra preparation costs for the provider.

Rust handles this quite nicely, with the `?` operator, which someone already mentioned in the comments. It's still as explicit as you want it to be, but made real easy by that small amount of syntactic sugar. Maybe Go should adopt some

Nice idea. I would prefer having it as an IDE feature, or within something like clippy (or eslint/flake8, etc...), though.
