I hadn't thought about this until I recently saw it (lazily) translated to Swedish literally, where it would traditionally be written more akin to "net fortune". And yeah, "worth" …

Don't let Stallman hear you say that! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU/Linux_naming_controversy

Not to mention the huge amount of people who think git == github.

I've never had a problem like that. People don't bother looking it up -- probably because your socioeconomic class is apparent anyway from e.g. the area you live in. AFAIK, the onl…

What a hassle! Here in Sweden, your tax filings are public information; companies can just ask the government what you made last year. I have no idea if they actually do, though, a…

I bought it in late 2013, so 12 years from purchase. Intel lists the launch date of the CPU (Atom D2500) as Q3'11, making it 14 years old when OpenSUSE Leap 16 was released. It loo…

> “you can’t install unless you upgrade your CPU” To be fair, I recently had to switch distros for my little Atom-based server because of a similar deal: https://en.opensuse.org/op…

Ah.

I don't see a problem with that, but for the record, the title on the site is lower-case for me (both browser tab title, and the header when in reader mode).

Keep Swedish out of this, you dirty Danes! Edit: Checked out your profile, correcting myself: "you silly north-Danes!"

It exists, hence e.g. AGPL. But for most open source licenses, that example would be within bounds. The grandparent comment objected to not respecting the license.

Sounds kind of like https://asciinema.org/ (which I've never used, but it seems cool).

It is, except after rebasing.

But that Commit-Id footer has no functional effect. I don't see how it would help me if I have a clone of the repo, and my upstream (in this case, the debian maintainer) rebases. >…

Rebasing would mean there's no continuous versioning of the "patches on top", which might be undesirable. Also, the history rewriting might make cooperation difficult. Merges would…

Sounds interesting. Tell me more?

We have that in Sweden and Finland: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_public_access_to_... The principle says that information is non-confidential by default, rather than …

A terminal maximized on my screen says: ~$ echo $((2 * LINES * COLUMNS)) triangles 34272 triangles That's nothing for a modern GPU. For example, this benchmark[1] says to expect on…

My favorite is his email on inlining code: https://cbarrete.com/carmack.html

Small code is easier to review, so projects with strict security requirements might be one? Also, license compliance is very easy (no notice required).

Some do. Most don't. Remember, the deal includes universal health care, tuition-free university, government-backed sick pay, five or six weeks of paid vacation, and more. I'm from …
