    So from what I am seeing in this with a brief look over it, the only cases in which data loss seemed to occur were when two clients were editing the same file temporally close to e…

    Legally finding plaintiffs, who can sue us for our illegal machinations is not allowed on our platform. What a world we live in. If this isn't the simplest demonstration of monopol…

    How is this of interest? Has there been any reporting/user mentions of such an issue?

    For anyone not interested in reading the whole article, apparently Apple is running out of binned, slightly damaged but still usable chips from earlier production, chips to use in …

    Am I the only one finding this article highly suspect? It seems like the errors made are so basic, i.e. using the wrong SQL dialect for the db system in use, and there orders were …

    I'm probably showing my age here, but did these email worms largely die out due to spam filtering, or did the email programs just get better protections against viruses that made i…

    This seems like the idea of modularizing code, and using specific function sighatures for data exchange as an API is being re-invented by people using AI. Aren't we already mostly …

    Here I was wondering what OpenAI even gets from this particular piece of legislation, but alas it is just the CEO trying to get more money for his individual self.

    What would that variety of reasons be? Genuinely asking.

    I apreciate the fact that they mention that sometimes a commit change needs a fix before it ever even was pull-request ready. I think it would be great to have the ability to easil…

    It's interesting to hear from people directly in the thick of it that these bug reports are apparently gaining value and are no longer just slop. Maybe there is hope for a world wh…

    I fully agree with your comment. Wouldn't it be possible to just put off sending welcome emails until the user actually engaged with the product in some way? And if an account wigh…

    I'm surprised that html entity supstitution performs so well. I would have assumed that scrappers could at least speak proper html.

    I really hope the report from a few days ago about the heatshield not sustaining earth reentry does not turn out to be true.

    Are there any developments towards font file standards that support the theoretical full space of unicode? I've always heard that fonts are limited in size to a subset of the true …

    Is there any other article that actually details what is going on? I feel whiplash from reading this right after the Ruby Central fiasco.

    Question being did OnlyOffice terminate the business relationship in a legal way. Just because you dislike a companies trajectory doesn't necessarily immediately allow you to termi…

    OnlyOffice was trying to implement some extra restrictions on top of the AGPL. Now they seem to be throwing a fit knowing that was not allowed. You can't bake your pie and eat it t…
