The GPLv2 doesn't prevent a company from distributing binaries and making the source available on request while development is done behind closed doors. This wouldn't really be "open source" as we typically understand it

This doesn't seem like a particularly compelling feature to me, but iTerm can do this too (since the person you replied to mentioned iTerm, this seems relevant).

You can also do Ctrl-UpArrow then click the space you want. This isn't instant, but it might be a little better than repeatedly cycling through each desktop, especially if you have a lot of them. Turning off "Automatically rearran

I have an Astro site that's mostly static with a couple interactive components. I recently converted the components from React to Lit and the result is so much simpler. One of the things that was clunky in the React version was the use

If you have Bitwarden installed on an iPhone, you can export directly to Apple Passwords with no intermediate steps or trying to figure out where to save the unencrypted CSV file. I just did this and it looks pretty good so far.

That works when you already have an established connection with someone, but it doesn’t work so well for making new connections. I’ve deleted all my Meta accounts and other social media accounts and have lost touch with many people and find

If I understand correctly, you're saying that leaving trash in Reno is bad , not that that's what people should do? I first read your comment as saying that people should leave their trash in Reno, but a sibling comment makes m

I think it's a bit more nuanced than that. As I understand it, happiness increases for most people as their income increases. However, this doesn't mean that a person is happy overall since there are other factors. So, it's

I'd suggest you dig a little deeper into American history. For example, "America First" isn't a new slogan. It's been used in its current sense for at least a century. Murdoch via Roger Ailes poured oil on the fire,

This might be true for libraries or utilities that have a well-defined scope and no dependencies, but that's not what the article is focused on. When considering a company's main product, it's usually never done and pattern

Good tools can improve your workflow for sure, but it's easy enough to keep a clean history with a handful of git commands. There are two main reasons people don't do so: 1. they don't know the commands yet or 2. they just do

This doesn't sound right. PyPy has always been described as an alternative implementation of Python that could in some cases be a drop-in replacement for CPython (AKA standard Python) that could speed up production workloads. Underne

The point of the video is to highlight how the inundation of AI-generated pull requests is harming open source. It doesn't say anything about AI success/failure rates, and it wouldn't make sense for it to go into details abou

Surely you'll be able to tell who's YOLOing commits without allowing junk into your repo that you'll have to clean up (and it almost certainly be you doing it, not that other person). DS_Store files are just annoying, but I&#

Looks neat. Assuming the site is built using the framework, I ran a couple of the component pages (e.g., accordion) through Lighthouse and there are a number of accessibility issues. Just a heads up.

I mostly use IDEs for day to day coding, and pretty much every IDE supports vim keybindings, which I always have enabled. I also use vim in the terminal for small edits and one-off files, so it's not either/or. After the initial l

The issue isn't intelligence per se . It's ignorance (often willful ignorance), dogmatism, media illiteracy, political illiteracy, etc. There are many intelligent (but evil) people in the Trump administration and not every Trump

The call to logging.basicConfig happens at import time, which could cause issues in certain scenarios. For a one-off script, it's probably fine, but for a production app, you'd probably want to set up logging during app startup
