At least I imagined they would at least test it on Alaska or some other snowy region of America, but I guess they were in a rush.

I had a similar experience. I only moved from xfce when my nvidia board kept killing my X session in creative ways. I'm pleasantly satisfied with kde, but I only have high praise for xfce usability.

To answer the question in the title, I don't think that Microsoft is even remotely trying to commit suicide. I think they realized that they are so freaking huge that they can nuke the equivalent of an entire year of revenue and still

Cool tip! I learned that reading other people's code and seeing how much they could get done with far fewer lines of code and much faster than I cause they didn't over-engineer from the start. I got the bad habit of making a big a

I understand that binary libraries can be owned by a different company. But if you strip all that could the resulting code still be infringing the copy rights of third parties? I never worked at a company where someone else's source wa

If my freelancer friends are anything to go by. Many companies, including some big-ish ones, will go with what's the cheapest option that looks good enough.

I think that your law of convenience is spot on. One thing that got by talking with commercial systems devs is that they are always under pressure by their clients to make their systems as cheap as possible, reducing the database stored and

Great stuff. I hate having to write bash scripts and this seems like a great way to create scripts that will run on even old linuxes. Seems that there are a few sections missing in the documentation, stuff like the standard library and the

I've spent a good amount of time (and money!) trying to replicate in me the joy that other people seem to have playing games on phones. Then I discovered novels (stupid, I know) and I never looked back if I'm too fidgety to read a

My initial reaction to the first few excerpts from neohaskell's website was: "Wait?! Are you guys already forking Simple Haskell[1] before Simple Haskell even has any traction??" In one hand neohaskell is not that dumb, but o

Ah right, thanks for pointing that out. For some reason I read it as several emails sent from tech giants addressing the public concerns about themselves.

Docker is my perfect example of a OSS being poisoned by excessive money. OSS needs money to survive but too much of it (a too heavy burden to turn a profit) can poison it leading to significant issues being ignored because either the paying

I think that a lot of the discussion of python problems is steered by the infinitely many python book writers and course instructors that have profited significantly by the current trend of "everyone must learn to code!". If the r

I really wished snaps worked well on most distros but as of now I always run into a bunch of bugs when installing stuff from it.

Same, but then again I'm only part of 3 groups and I'm hardly ever available to talk on it. I just call back almost every time.

As a user/developer how do you even mitigate against this kind of attack? Audit all source that you or your dependencies use?

Some people don't live in countries where abortion is legal, as it's the case for my friends. It's also important to know the huge influence of culture and peer pressure on having kids. I got physically upset when I went to p

I have tried checking the REST API[1] but I only found a has_sig parameter. Where is the actual signature? https://warehouse.readthedocs.io/api-reference/json/

by msl09 8y ago
That is discussed extensively in the issues related to the OP. The problem is that package maintainers of distros actually check whether the GPG signature has changed in order to repackaged python projects for their distros.
