Sure, that's one approach. Testing those changes takes time when you're working on a whole operating system and a ports tree. More time than cutting a new gcc release, as it turns …

There is more than one C specification, and with each new release of GCC several things that used to emit warnings are newly treated as errors.

I was in England last month and the road signs still have yards on them. Their government has a whole website complaining about it: https://metrication.uk/transport/roads/distance-…

If your argument is "this is unenforceable" and "failure to enforce is a low-stakes problem" then I'm not sure what your concerns are, other than a desire to control how others cho…

As best as you can. I don't know why people keep asking this question, when the answer is obvious and exactly like all other contribution policies. In this case, this is coming fro…

Yeah, I wouldn't have that paper peer reviewed either. Garbage methodology.

Hard to have vendor lock-in without vendors! Not that I think anyone should be lining up to produce what appear to be clones of the Intel Xeon Phi.

Thanks for letting me know. Otherwise I would have assumed that 1.5 million of dollars of income per week was some kind of success!

I wish I had a product whose 'near-total collapse' meant I was 'only' selling two thousand of them a week

Thanks; it's much easier to examine assertions and weigh evidence when I can actually see the evidence instead of someone talking at me, regardless of their credentials. I apprecia…

They "shoot themselves in the foot" by only offering it in a billion-and-a-half-person market? Not sure how. The sales numbers in ROW are probably a rounding error compared to Indi…

The article about an AI-generated X11 server? Why not?

The aim is to reduce the number of users of the software who are uncomfortable with those who are gay, trans, and/or anticolonial, probably because dealing with such people is a he…
