The GPLv2 doesn't prevent a company from distributing binaries and making the source available on request while development is done behind closed doors. This wouldn't really be "op…

> VS is dying I don't think this is true at all. If anything, it's the opposite, in that MS has greatly improved recent versions of Visual Studio. > VSCode is the future Maybe for …

This doesn't seem like a particularly compelling feature to me, but iTerm can do this too (since the person you replied to mentioned iTerm, this seems relevant).

You can also do Ctrl-UpArrow then click the space you want. This isn't instant, but it might be a little better than repeatedly cycling through each desktop, especially if you have…

I have an Astro site that's mostly static with a couple interactive components. I recently converted the components from React to Lit and the result is so much simpler. One of the …

If you have Bitwarden installed on an iPhone, you can export directly to Apple Passwords with no intermediate steps or trying to figure out where to save the unencrypted CSV file. …

That works when you already have an established connection with someone, but it doesn’t work so well for making new connections. I’ve deleted all my Meta accounts and other social …

If I understand correctly, you're saying that leaving trash in Reno is bad , not that that's what people should do? I first read your comment as saying that people should leave the…

I think it's a bit more nuanced than that. As I understand it, happiness increases for most people as their income increases. However, this doesn't mean that a person is happy over…

I'd suggest you dig a little deeper into American history. For example, "America First" isn't a new slogan. It's been used in its current sense for at least a century. Murdoch via …

This might be true for libraries or utilities that have a well-defined scope and no dependencies, but that's not what the article is focused on. When considering a company's main p…

Good tools can improve your workflow for sure, but it's easy enough to keep a clean history with a handful of git commands. There are two main reasons people don't do so: 1. they d…

This doesn't sound right. PyPy has always been described as an alternative implementation of Python that could in some cases be a drop-in replacement for CPython (AKA standard Pyth…

The point of the video is to highlight how the inundation of AI-generated pull requests is harming open source. It doesn't say anything about AI success/failure rates, and it would…

Surely you'll be able to tell who's YOLOing commits without allowing junk into your repo that you'll have to clean up (and it almost certainly be you doing it, not that other perso…

Looks neat. Assuming the site is built using the framework, I ran a couple of the component pages (e.g., accordion) through Lighthouse and there are a number of accessibility issue…

True, but the point could have been made in a more tactful way, and it didn't add anything useful to the discussion anyway.

Now that he's no longer with us, I don't think comments like this are necessary.

> now that Windows mostly stopped resisting the inevitable I've been trying to get Visual Studio to stop mucking with line endings and encodings for years. I've searched and set al…

I mostly use IDEs for day to day coding, and pretty much every IDE supports vim keybindings, which I always have enabled. I also use vim in the terminal for small edits and one-off…

Thanks. I came up with this Python simulation that matches your 68%: import random def lying_flippers(num_flips=1_000_000): """ - Bob flips a coin and tells Alice the result but li…

The issue isn't intelligence per se . It's ignorance (often willful ignorance), dogmatism, media illiteracy, political illiteracy, etc. There are many intelligent (but evil) people…

I agree that Obama wasn't as great as a lot of people make him out to be, but what does that have to do with the current situation?

What happens if Bob lies to Alice 20% of the time and Alice lies to me 20% of the time but I only get input from Alice?

How it is "luxury" to want to address large scale crimes such as wage theft, price collusion, corruption, unequal access, and institutional racism/classism that are major underlyin…
