Same. I used to pirate software but even way back I kept it limited to very popular software and established downloads (where if they were malware they were almost certain to be in a signature database by that point). And I absolutely never pirated an OS. I thought anyone doing that was out of their freaking mind because any malware there had ultimate access to block its own detection and do whatever else it pleased.
Now I don't do it at all. It's not worth the risk when I have the money to pay for the proprietary software that I like and when the ecosystem of open source software is very good.
It's so unhelpful for people to get mad at made up crap. It completely weakens the impact of the pushback. Like if someone is in a position where people are getting mad over all sorts of made up stuff anyway, what's even the point of avoiding actually doing any of the things they're mad about? Might as well get something out of it if the downside doesn't change either way.
Really? At my workplace if we had a vendor email us about needing to take some action to continue being able to work with them, but we didn't follow through with that, any business disruption would be squarely on us for not handling it. At the very least even if we can't meet a supposed deadline, we need to work with the vendor to get extensions if possible, and if that's not possible then we either need to mitigate the impact or get more resources on the changes ASAP.
I suspect as much too. If there's a failure to match the noise perfectly then the headphones are just going be be blasting a loud sound into your ears. And if it matches the frequency correctly but lines up with the sound instead of being out of phase, then it's acting as an amplifier!
Those agents did such a wonderful job making and deploying this page that the testimonials are unreadable because each spot has two of them overlapping.
For the stuff I've worked on, if you want to know about bugfixes and emergency releases, you'd go to Jira where those values are formalized as fields. Someone else in the comments here had a suggestion which just looks for the word "fix" which would definitely capture some bugfix releases, but is more likely to catch fixes that were done during development of a feature.
That was my question too. I have plenty of projects I've worked on where they rarely get touched anymore. They don't need new features and nothing is broken.
I did and I still didn't see any numbers. Just a bunch of AI generated text about why it's supposedly fast. It even says it records numbers multiple times, so why aren't there any presented?
I used to try to combine everything, but now I don't. Separate appliances isolates issues to a subset of services. If everything is on a single PC and that one dies or even just needs a reboot, everything goes down.
Dedicated appliances are the way to go for the most important parts of your setup. I've always had my router as an appliance because I don't like the idea of my network failing due to something going wrong with the server that runs a bunch of other things that are less important. I also have Home Assistant running on a dedicated machine because that's also important.
Btw you do also need to be careful with opnsense. I was years behind on updates for mine because every time I updated I assumed that it would bring me up to date with the latest version. But opnsense has to install the upgrades in order. After you reboot you need to check again for updates and repeat until there's no more to install.
Incredibly, one of the responses you got already is exactly one of those replies that says nothing. There's a whole bunch of words that don't actually answer the question.
They don't even have to think of a way around any of it. They just need to search online to find someone who has found a way around it. Or prompt AI to come up with a solution. And even if someone is so dull that they don't think about that, it will probably make it to them as the info spreads by word of mouth.
That was my experience as well. I did best in the classes where I didn't have a laptop out. I had no temptations to be distracted and simply writing down the notes by hand was a huge benefit.
I suspect the people I see saying they were able to not get distracted when using a laptop in class are either outliers or liars.
My excitement for Zig dropped the longer they stayed at 0.x (and they really have meant 0.x with the breaking changes they were making). This decision from them completely killed it for me.
I understood not using the C Runtime and instead creating direct wrappers over the Win32 API, but going a level lower to APIs that are not guaranteed to be stable is nutty.
Those being in the list doesn't mean that's what they're looking for. Take a look at the database of extensions, there's far more extensions that don't seem limited to any particular group. The author just called those out specifically because they're perfect for implying nefarious intent.
Wow JetBrains Mono to me is the furthest thing possible from Iosevka. I use PragmataPro (which Iosevka is extremely similar to) and I hate JetBrains Mono for feeling so large compared to the compact characters I'm used to.
It tells me that they are afraid of their safety and the safety of their families. They would risking backlash from a billionaire who loves intimidation tactics, who currently has the highest amount of power of any individual in the US, and who has nutty followers who would act on his behalf and let him pretend he was not at all happy about what they are doing.
The people who have come forward about Epstein's abuses have little to worry about because that man is dead and he's a perfect scapegoat for all the the other ultra-rich who took part in the abuses.
I don't like that they are training on any interactions with Copilot by default but training on something that you've put through Copilot yourself is much different than them just shoving all the private repos currently on Github into the training data.
There are some people who would exclude all of those an enhancements because they don't care about them (yes, even Unicode, I've seen some people on here argue against supporting anything other than ASCII)
No they didn't. It would be copyright washing if someone contributed to ReactOS who remembered large portions of the Windows code and wrote the ReactOS implementations based on that.
Agreed here. The speed bottleneck I run into is simply that there's often a lot of packages that need updating, so there's a lot to download. And if anything needs to be compiled from source then the time that takes will dominate (though I think everything I currently run is thankfully pre-built)
