Same article in German, if that’s more your thing: https://www.srf.ch/news/dialog/autonomes-fahren-wie-tesla-un...

> I took action as the primary on-call engineer to lock down the AWS account and prevent any actions by possible attackers. So he suspected an attack, but did not contact his emplo…

I don’t really think pedantry about terms changes the overall point.

Great Britain is the big island next to Ireland. So the Scots, Welsh and English are British. Most Irish people would not take kindly to be called British, but then there’s Norther…

They can just fork Rails right now, no need for dramatic open letters. As for trying to unseat the Rails founder and BDFL, no chance.

Maybe I’m just not the target audience, but looking at the front page, I don’t see what actual problems this solves. The claims sound nice, but without examples of what they mean i…

You can't do anything like Omarchy with macOS. Everything is locked down tight, no customization or tweaking allowed. Lots of developers are tired of being hemmed in and disrespect…

This exceedingly uninformed rant makes more sense when you understand that the author has his own timestamp format he wants to push. Counterpoints: - UUID is not random characters,…

There’s also a more community-driven/open source fork of Gitea, called Forgejo: https://forgejo.org/

How relevant is this now, if you have a modern server that supports HTTP/3? HTTP/3 uses UDP rather than TCP, so TCP slow start should not apply at all.

Will be interesting to see if they can make it stick. Everyone is used to Windows + Office, so there’ll be a lot of resistance to trying something else, and if their IT department …

That’s the nice thing about Open Source. Nothing’s stopping you from organizing this yourself.

Everyone likes their mother tongue better, so does Mark Twain. No need to write a whole treatise about it. Having lived 10+ years in Switzerland and having learned the language (an…

One might hope it’ll cause Tesla to drop the price for their “full” self-driving too. $8'000 for a software feature is just bonkers. Especially in Europe, where there’s no subscrip…

So would all the other western automakers. The lower wage- and energy costs in China would strangle them all.

Hindenburg goes down in flames?

You can say that, but on the power flow maps, it was quite clear. At the same time we were paying ~$1.5 USD for 1 kWh, we were exporting power to Germany (and other energy-unstable…

Hello world might be simple, but you don’t have to build very much before you start to run into problems with the simple “props down, events up” and you start needing to learn abou…

1. Release your code as open source. 2. Make a fortune. 3. Complain that people are freeloading. 4. Abuse your power as project founder to punish them, torching the community trust…

The interesting point is how the value of 10 is not defined in Rust’s source code, but passed down as “word of mouth” from compiler to compiler.

He’s really working hard on torching his reputation. The whole WPEngine debacle just makes him look petty and mean.

Always fun to see the spyware merchants whining about how Apple’s privacy protection efforts makes creeping on users difficult. Cry harder, dirtbags.

A more efficient image format helps everyone on the web. We’re looking at 30-50% fewer bits sent over the wire for the same image quality. Massive bandwith savings for everyone. JP…

This is essentially the COBOL argument. Sure, it might not be very good, but it’s long-term stable. Fortunately, many other frameworks are long-term stable, but also have a good pr…

Why not just use shell scripts instead of trying to work around make’s weirdness to make it do something it wasn’t designed for? If make is available, odds are that a bash-compatib…
