story time: i actually had a situation recently where i wanted to delete a file that a process had open because i needed to free up space. i had a process that wrote a massive log file (200GB) filling up the disk. i didn't want to kill

fairphone probably rolls out a stock android release with little change whereas /e/OS has to forward port all its changes and patches on all the phones they support. maybe taking 4 months is to much for that, but that's most

business endeavors that cared only about the process , and would gladly avoid the [...] process you mean they care about the product...

as if fairphone ever did that: they don't fully keep up with privacy/security backports and lag a year behind on shipping yearly OS releases so, again, how is /e/OS being behind on updates any worse than fairphone&#x27

They replaced their own non-GMS Fairphone OS with a dramatically less secure /e/OS it sounds like they are saying that /e/OS is less secure than fairphone's own OS. with all criticism against /e/OS taken

it's true by biological necessity. parenting starts already while the child is still growing in the womb. the way the mother lives, experiences stress, what she consumes, all affect the child. breastfeeding is equally important and is

actually, i strongly believe that the most benefits come from how (not how much) parents interact with and care for their children. i went to kindergarten too, and i grew up spending a lot of tome outside with other kids with plenty of oppo

that's a bit harsh. the job is to solve a problem, implement a solution. as a developer i should have some leeway on how i accomplish that. be able to choose the tools that i believe are the best for the given task. there may be constr

Joe would move from stock ROM/Google/manufacturer to custom ROM/random developer on the intertubez and so would his trust. And even Joe knows trusting a random guy on the Interwebtubez is the last thing one should do. but t

why would i want to have a second box to play my content when i can have it all in one. HDMI cables can only be so long before they get in the way. connecting the TV to a fileserver via wifi is awfully convenient. i also want to play stuff

that statement does not make any claims about capability, reliability or robustness. the claims are rather cost and independence.

if i live in a country where DNS is filtered then running my own locally is not going to work.

disappointing, because alternatives matter too. quad9 and other well known servers are potentially blocked by some countries, so the more lesser known services there are the better.

i get where you are coming from, but i suspect that the company that does that would also exhaust people without pair programming. bad work environments exist, and yeah, those are probably not the places where you want to introduce pair pro

you are not being interrupted. your partner is thinking with you and is paying close attention to what you are doing. they will know you well enough to not interrupt you while you are focusing on something specific. they will wait for the r

absolutely, for me that's included in the cost of ownership. just like the cost of ownership of physical items includes the cost of disposal of those items once they are no longer useful.

you mean the white bump on top of the purple brick that should not be there? well, i saw that as a marking on the brick because if it was a bump it would be purple. and on the left side whether that looks right or not depends on the angle.

research has shown that the longer work in one day the lower your performance gets. meaning that eg in the first 4 hours i get 60% of my work done and in the remaining 4 hours 40% simply because i get tired later in the day. (numbers made u

how is the lego structure impossible? it is unstable because it's made only of 1-stud bricks. and there are some non existent multi colored bricks in use, but those could theoretically be produced. also while the wheels are not connect

my performance goes up when i pair program. therefore velocity is not cut in half. depending on the pair, the velocity may even be higher than the combination if the two people working individually. also if pair programming means saving tim

AI may reduce the cost of code production, but it raises the cost of ownership.

ladybird is way to early in development to sell itself to anyone except developers who might want to contribute to it. they need to get it working first before they can think about interesting features that might make it attractive. it&#x27
