the court can remain unconvinced longer than you can stay solvent

Hey, I've been thinking and talking in another thread; I just made a comment that is completely relevant for this convo, too; the people in the discussion, as well as you, are look…

And that's good and well - that's the way things are done: every project strives for their goal as well as they can. I am very emphatically not making any statements about the tech…

> His moral positions have done incredible damage to GCC at a technical level, and lost huge amounts of marketshare to LLVM as a direct result. We can take this as a given for the …

> That kind of disruption is at odds with every value FOSS devs claim to hold-- meritocratic, decentralized, etc. You're mixing things here. :) meritocracy and decentralization are…

Since they reversed before making the information pubilc, was damage really done?

Even so, having say a bare metal server (à la Vultr) can be way cheaper than having a cloud setup in one of the most flexible kinds of providers. The detail to look at is that flex…

3rd world perspective: They're not far off from the mark. You'd want to co-locate with ISP who already has infrastructure for continuous services through blackouts et al, or you co…

It seems they do? Not compoletely polished. https://docs.firefly-iii.org/en/latest/import/ynab.html --- EDIT: misread! I don't know about the _features_. They support importing, wh…

Some things you can do in bulk (economies of scale), outsource, schedule, or otherwise automate. You can create pipelines that save labor - like clients for platforms that make ans…

- Rationality: From AI To Zombies - 12 Rules for Life

B stands for benevolent even in that case. The target of that benevolence is the project. His call should be in the best interest of the project (benevolent), final (dictator), and…

When you say "in place" you mean the data is still on the NIC? Or is the data 'elsewhere in RAM'? I'm curious because this would be the difference between "scale with more cores" o…

But molten is for Vulkan (ie: not OpenGL) - and not 100% of Vulkan, AFAIK.

That's a nice take - it's still understandable that many of us would rather be in control of the software we're using, though, isn't it? It's - irksome. If one of my prod servers w…

I'd buy this if it was a wordpress plugin.

Thanks for explaining. Cuba & Venezuela are not within the normalcy of LatAm - different economic models, different politics. Mexico has good abortion laws - at least in the capita…

I don't know why you say the left in Latin America favors restrictions on abortion. I am a Latin American and can say it's just not so - at least in the countries I know, the left …

A hamfisted approach to team code on centralized repos, I agree with you on seeing the problem. But building a proof-of-concept in my branch is way less invasive. I've bought many …

There's a risk to this approach. I tried it twice (with ~3 year gap in between), and twice I lost myself and had to re-train to be my usual self. Bad habits are contagious, momentu…

I see your point, and I agree that it's good to be nice to people. But being in leadership and spending time around a few hundred coders over the hears has taught me the value of s…

Just in case, I found this: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Delphi_Converter_in_Lazar...

A bit old is an understatement :^) why not update to more recent iterations of Delphi?
