This is likely a clip from a much older video (I think it's from ~2012)

enchiladas for the win!

> I don't know a lot of commercial software that is cross-platform beyond those three.

This discussion isn't about "a lot of commercial software", it's about Sublime Text. There world is not all Linux, MacOS and Windows.

I'm aware Sublime Text isn't available for OpenBSD (There's a FreeBSD package but last I checked it was broken)

I'm just letting the developers know, there's interest outside of those OSes.

OpenBSD

OpenBSD

The only reason I no longer pay for a license to Sublime Text is that it's not available on my OS. Them either supporting more OSes (a lot of work!) or making it open source would at least cause _me_ to buy a license again.

They don't even have to make it "open source", keeping a proprietary license such that it's just "source available" would be fine with me too.

Edit: Hilarious to get down voted for this comment.

AI won't take of front-end dev jobs until it can start creating a new framework every week, constantly break backwards compatibility, then abandon the project and start a new one.

Wish the SuperH stuff would have panned out, the open source stuff seems to be dead on the vine :(

The "from ASUS" part is pretty important to that headline IMHO...

I'm wondering why the article doesn't point out that risk either. If your child is 3-5 months old and is severely allergic (but you don't know it yet) it seems like they could have a severe reaction to even a small amount of peanuts.

> For example East Asians have an extremely low rate of peanut allergies, but East Asians who grow up in western countries tend to have an equal or higher rate of peanut allergies compared to the general populace.

Interesting... my wife is East Asian and has no history of Peanut allergies in her family. Same for my family (Caucasian, US) yet our daughter is allergic.

My wife also ate a lot of peanut butter while pregnant...

exactly what I was wondering, thanks!

People don't like confrontation. It's easier to whine to someone else than address the thing bothering them head on.

Also been at Gandi over a decade, this really sucks.

Where the hell is the date on this press release...

> "Gandi SAS (“Gandi”) and Total Webhosting Solutions B.V. (“TWS”), today announced"

when was "today"?

Start a consulting company. There's no law against having a one person company.

With all the copy-cat layoffs going on, I wonder how many people have been laid off, found a new job only to be laid off _again_!

The link is broken and if you manually fix it, you'll find this is behind an email wall...

Yeah, last time I looked the cost was the primary barrier and decided to wait until I needed an upgrade. I don't do any PC gaming so I can save a bit my going with the Intel GPU instead of a discrete graphics card.

All of the machines in my home lab do but sadly none of my workstations do (ThinkCentre and a ThinkPad.) I wish they did.

Some higher end Dell Precision's and at least at one time Lenovo/Thinkpads had models with ECC ram and if they still do next time I need a new machine that's what I'm getting.

1. Comments

2. I like the separation of data and the program and am not the biggest fan of using a full scripting language as a config file (sometimes popular js, php, and lua)

Bonus: Some way to specify variables for reusable values, not a deal breaker though.

Bonus 2: Not having to learn a radical new config file format.

> If mountains become your life, it won't be long until they become the norm, making you flee back to some urban jungle.

Anecdotally, this is somewhat true for me. My wife and I moved to a rural location last year and every few of months we make a trip to "civilization" (e.g. a major city) to "recharge". Waking up every day surrounded in nature and breathing in the sweet air of a pine forest is great, no doubt. But being able to walk to a pizza shop or bike to a park are something we really miss too.

We're in bit of a pickle though, our daughter will be starting school in a couple of years but the public schools here are not very good. They have some of the lowest scores in the state and the state's scores are some of the lowest in the country...

This is the comment I was looking for, it appears to me to be a difference of values and it will likely continue to cause tension( unless someone's values change.)

The baked in ZFS support is what lead me to use Ubuntu on my Desktop for a few release cycles. Sure you can build the module yourself using most other distros but it was the path of least effort. Eventually, I realized that I don't really use ZFS' features much on my Desktop. It's nice for sure, but I just didn't find myself needing it as much as I do on my servers (where it's essential.) So I've left the Ubuntu camp anyway.

> the idea is you are given confidential info that you are not supposed to use because that's unfair competition

This proposal does not nullify NDAs (Non disclosure agreements), from the FTC press release:

"The proposed rule would generally not apply to other types of employment restrictions, like non-disclosure agreements."

There are also exceptions to partners and owners selling a business.

How are they even going to enforce this? There's probably millions of porn sites out there, and 99% of them are not even going to be aware of this law and not care if they do, especially in the case of foreign owned sites. This really just punishes the biggest sites that are aware and try to play by the rules (e.g. pornhub.) Why go to a site that requires verification when you can choose one of hundreds of thousands that won't.

You're likely an industrious person, this is a personality trait no need to fight it or feel bad about it you just may be more at ease when you have something to do. So best to to find something!

> Maybe the computer systems are well-thought out and efficient

They're not. Far from it. Not the systems implemented for the states, and not the systems implemented by the federal government. At the end of the day it is enterprise software written to specs created by state and federal government. In most cases the new system has improvements over the previous one (better UI, more secure), but that's just because the federal government helped pay the bill for a shiny new system.

> what you're missing is that DMVs are terribly time-wasting, and nobody wants to go to one until it's absolutely necessary

That's a fair point. When a state/territory switches over to a new REAL ID system there is definitely a significant increase in per-customer processing time. After a few weeks the staff is better equipped and a lot of the software issues have been ironed out and they get faster but it may always take a bit more time than before. I've seen cases where a customer had to come back multiple times over the course of a week (due to no fault of their own) to get their license and I've seen cases where they are in and out in a few minutes with license in hand (some states print at their offices, some do factory printing and mail out.)

> Until the federal government makes it a priority to clean up customer-facing bureaucracies at all levels of government they interact with, these sorts of migrations will remain quagmires.

The customer-facing side is the state/territory-run DMVs though. The states have to collect a bit more information to comply with REAL ID but they have nearly all the control over the customer experience. Maybe the federal government could withhold funds for future updates to the systems if states don't meet some criteria for fast processing and better customer service but I won't hold my breath (though that would be great.)
