  • Sometimes I want to call malloc, just as a treat

  • multiple processes?!

  • Why are they like this

    Jump

  • Hindsight sure is sharp

    In hindsigth, are there strong reasons why european nato members should have invested significantly more in military, than they did?

  • capitalism, everybody

    Jump

  • This falsely assumes that economic actors necessarily have sound judgment about value

    Does this matter in the context of this post? I.e. are GDPs "the sum of shit people pay for" or do they get adjusted for "sound judgment of value"?

  • Something's wrong...

    Jump

  • I like that they bring up all these informations, just to conclude, that neo-liberalism would be the solution (instead of the problem).

  • Which anime is this still from?

  • So this is why he doesn't do Linux... any more

  • reliably maintaining services

    it's funny that you use that as a selling point.

    In my experience almost no outage happens because hardware failures. And most outages happen because bad configurations and/or expired certs, which in turn are a symptom of too much complexity.

  • Allman if the condition is very long

     
        
while(isSomething
    && isSomethingElse
    && nFoo < 10)
{
    bla();
    bla();
}

    vs

     
        
while(isSomething
    && isSomethingElse
    && nFoo < 10) {
    bla();
    bla();
}

  • Maybe Lovecraft wasn't as talented as people think?

    Jump

  • Anyway, well worth reading his complete works. Good shit. Grab a copy off me.

    There is a torrent for the audiobooks, narrated by Wayne June (the narrator from Darkest Dungeon).

    Wayne Junes reading Lovecraft is a match made in heaven. I strongly recommend giving it a try

  • Paying for free software

    Jump

  • thanks. I forgot about that. But I'd like to add, that this models kind of feels like "donations with extra steps" to me. i.e. you can get it for free, but you choose to pay the developer even though you have to.

  • Op, op-op-op, oppa gangnam style!

    Jump

  • are you saying jokes in the 80s (70s,60s,etc) were better?

  • Chernobyl's mutant wolves appear to have developed resistance to cancer, study finds

  • You wouldn't download an entire media library

  • because of all the socialist propaganda in it?

  • Paying for free software

    Jump

  • there is plenty open source software, that you can buy. There are many modes:

    • you buy the support (redhead)
    • you buy the long-term-support (ubuntu)
    • you pay for backports to old releases (keycloak iirc)
    • there is a open source version, and you can pay for enterprise features and hosting (gitlab)
    • there is an open source version, and you pay for customization (star office, iirc)

    and my personal favorit:

    • you pay a random developer to submit pullrequests for bugs that are relevant to you

  • Why It Was Almost Impossible to Make the Blue LED

    Jump

  • full-spectrum lighting

    this doesn't sound true.

    iirc full spectrum means "every wavelength" (like sunlight) and not just "3 wavelengths that add up to white".

  • Sony is erasing digital libraries that were supposed to be accessible “forever”

    Jump

  • You vote with your wallets. Each time you buy a phone without SD cart, you are submitting a ballot.

    Seriously. phones are 99% identical anyways. It's not so hard to filter for the 2-3 criteria you actually care about.

  • Why do companies love chrome so much?

    Jump

  • is this true?

  • Skyrocketing bluesky engagement since opening to the public
