    So hanging on the sidewalk is cool if non-homeless people do it?

    To be honest, some of your points can be a hindrance, but as a GitLab user, others are solveable without massive efforts. - env vars can be scripted, either in YAML or through dote…

    I agree with wrapping things like build scripts to test locally. Still, some actions or CI steps are also not meant to be run locally. Like when it publishes to a repo or needs any…

    At this point, just pause with Github Actions and compare it to how GiLab handles CI. Much more intuitive, taking shell scripts and other script commands natively and not devolving…

    The spirit of forgejo is great, but the whole CI component of both Gitea, forgejo und Github is absolute garbage. Just compare it to GitLab and it becomes clear. Why the hell are A…

    Yeah, that part reminds me of the flatteringly named "Call to Action" buttons. There was a nice blog article named something like "Button presses You" which i can't seem to find. E…

    High-level is good enough for me for the beginning, thanks!

    Can someone explain to a C-noob how this differs from and compares to LLVM?

    The UI looks great in the screenshots, gives me a warm feeling of 2000-era UIs. Will definitely check it out, thanks for posting!

    The cost is not that high. There are plenty static site generators or things like pandoc. For example: https://pianomanfrazier.com/post/write-a-book-with-markdown/ You are asking f…

    HTML is made to be flexible by using CSS, LaTeX is a typesetting program. It sets the whole document to look nice in one specific view, which is the final PDF. Or mre precisely, La…

    Firefox with some extras might he nice, but the structure of that web page raises the question: Who is the target audience? That website has so many oversimplified marketing claims…

    Either i overread it or one major quirk is totally not touched on: PowerShell is case-insensitive in as many places as possible, except file paths or the likes. You can actually ca…

    The title is clickbait, as the laws of cosmology are effectively made up to follow hypotheses made upon observations of the cosmos. If anything, the observations have led to imcomp…

    Sorry, I don't have it hosted or uploaded anywhere, since it is heavily changing still. Also the name is not decided yet

    Just for fun, I'm writing an internet forum software from scratch, strongly inspired by phpBB and the likes. It is split into an Angular UI, C# ASP.NET Core RESTful API and postgre…

    I like this a lot, thank you. Have to try it out in a project. Is the default encoding when handling files UTF8 OR UTF8-BOM? Is both supported? Another question: in the readme you …

    Well, not really. The expansion of the universe is not responsible for explaining gravity, it was observed and aided in determining models and constants for the theory. Start by lo…

    I am using it in a hobby code first project. Had no issues with it, but my data model is admittedly not complex and the the data is small in size.

    The whole article reads like a strawman argument. From a dev's point of view, timezones in real life are okay and much more annoying in data/software because sometimes, other folks…

    I agree, but we gotta tell that to CI/CD engineering and yaml-pipelines

    This is a nice writeup, but the definition and usage of determinant makes my nails curl. A determinant is defined for matrices, not for vectors and from the purpse of your article …

    This article really doesn't get what LaTeX does. Of course it is overkill to have 5 lines of text rendered with LaTeX into a PDF. But the point of LaTeX is exactly to set the types…

    Yeah thank you, that summary is better than the article. The definition of refracitve index in the article is also just wrong, since it is simply not an angle. It can be calculated…
