There’s a fork https://github.com/LadybugDB/ladybug that you can use.

Because all software has bugs, because the system underlying that software changes and you need to keep up, because for some people it’s just missing that one feature or doesn’t work quite right in that one edge case. I’d bet that there ar

How are the maintainers supposed to know that the users don’t trust VS Code if no one voices their concerns like a rabid mob? Seriously why should the maintainer care what users think about how they produce code? Bugs happen, regressions h

Part of it is cultural due to the origins of our country. We are mostly a country of immigrants. On the base of the Statue of Liberty is a poem “The New Colossus” which says: Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs

I can really only describe my personal experience adequately vs the X hype, though there are enough influential/experienced devs out there who aren't part of the LLM industry who are saying they are having great success that I hav

The current job market will probably suck for the next 2-4 years honestly. Over time, people will leave the industry and find other career’s and the market won’t be as heavily impacted as it is now.

If possible, go to local meetups for whatever type of role you are in/interested in. The current environment while very different from the 2000’s dot com bubble bust, has certain similarities, and at that time, the only way to really

This will be a U.S. centered response, because that’s where I live and work. We’ve tried hiring for local and remote roles. It’s a terrible experience all around, both on the hiring and being hired side of the equation. The company I work

They are on the record about why they switched to a chromium based browser. It’s been a while, but if I’m remembering correctly, at the time Google was making changes to YouTube to make it actively slower, and use more power on IE. Micros

I get that regardless there were warning signs, but it honestly seems like slack either miscommunicated or flat out lied to them about the ability to address pricing. While in retrospect they should have started preparing to migrate away,

It wasn’t slack, but I’ve had multiple vendors that I was in regular touch with, surprise me with pricing changes in the week(s) leading up to a contract renewal. Never quite this short notice, but definitely as little as 8 business days b

You can self host for free. You lose some features, but overall it’s still pretty good.

When I run out of need and interest. Some topics I end up needing to know a lot about despite lack of interest (looking at you UEFI), and so I learn until I can solve all the problems I’m having. Others I quickly pass up my needs and then

This assumes facts not in evidence. While the posted quote is sanitized, the assumption that the poster did the sanitization vs. copying from a sanitized source isn't necessarily supported.

Also, something starts off as a nothingburger side project, so you make some decisions based on that. Then it develops a bit, and turns into something you care about and are able to turn into a business. What people want and expect change

I mean, there’s a chance it’s exactly what he said, “I didn't give it much thought at the time, but knew that I wanted the code to be available for people to learn from, and to make it easily auditable so users could validate claims I

His point was that we are quickly entering the land of “Source Available” not really being a shield if someone’s willing to spend some time in claude code.

If you look at the commit graph, it’s definitely not a community project.

Whether it’s an explicit design flaw that allows the gun to fire with no interaction with the trigger at all, or one where the gun is prone to fire unintended when circumstances are less that ideal, and an interaction that shouldn’t cause i

It really doesn’t matter at this point whether someone is able to document it or not. There is a lot of anecdotal evidence of uncommanded discharge (yes the plural of anecdote is not data), and the reputational damage to the gun and the br

If you look at all the places where Kent has had drama, the common element is him and environments that have pretty rigid workflows. The common thread seems to be him not respecting workflows and processes that those places have, that inco

Maybe, women don’t have a responsibility to me to make things work. I just don’t see a world where women stop working, and go back to where they couldn’t own property or get a credit card or bank account without having a man. Women have d

There’s a significant amount of discussion and research about the problems both young men and women face. It’s definitely not 100% a men are to blame for everything, situation out there. There’s plenty of discussion about how women treat

I can 100% agree with this. I’m a pretty liberal person (my father says a little left of Lenin), but I did grow up in the south shooting guns with family, and am still interested in firearms and related information. It’s so hard to get yo

Tmux absolutely can move panes between windows, including into their own new window. And can move windows between sessions.

That’s underselling the community around it. Most subsystems have dedicated maintainers at this point, and it’s improving at a reasonable rate. It’s just new and new tools don’t have the full set of features of older tools. I’m assuming b

Or they have experience as open source maintainers, and don’t really answer questions that you can find out for yourself if you look at the github repo.
