Microsoft making their products better? What an absolutely evil plot they're concocting!

Ya'll stuck in the Microsoft of 20 years ago. I hold no great love for Microsoft or its products, and large corporate power can always be abused, but screeching "EEE!" at the slightest hint with no evidence based on assumptions on what they might do in 5 years is just silly.
There's also more demand for largely manual cameras.

The F6 was the flagship 35mm SLR camera once production of new film cameras stopped at Nikon, and as such it's filled with all the features you'd expect of a flagship camera. It'll take a battery grip, it shoots at 8FPS with it, it'll take a separate data recorder to record exposure info, etc. etc.

Except that a lot of people using film today don't want that. The manual old-time simplicity and thoughtfulness is part of the selling point for a lot of those who still use film, and if they wanted to shoot at 8FPS or higher, DSLRs and mirrorless cameras are far better choices on any technical merit. I'd be surprised if the F6 ends up selling out easily.
What makes this one different is that, for example, if you want to set the width, you just do it once. Other approaches (including bootstrap) you have to type "width" once for every break point where it's different.

The resulting code from this approach looks a little cleaner and nicer compared to bootstrap or normal CSS, at first glance. I'd have to test it before commenting further though.
It is not something that is planned. It is grass roots corruption. I will give you a crazier example. In a large taluka (like a town) in South India in a very poor water scarce area, money for a particular stretch of road (20 km) is given every year. The contract always goes to the company owned by the local MLA (member of state assembly). They deliberately make a weak road which washes away in a year. Some of my friends have seen this happen 11-12 times in a year. They say nowadays at least the contractor makes some roads, 10+ years back the road would not be constructed and the funds withdrawn.

This corruption is lower in centrally funded large scale expressways because lot of data logging, monitoring etc. is done nowadays. Having said that execution with < 10% money being pilfered means a highly successful project.

Indian bureaucracy always finds a way to slow down any expenditure on public infrastructure, unless they manage to get something of it for themselves. The system is so well evolved in all cases, e.g. agri subsidies are only given to farmers who pay middlemen 10% of the amount in cash (which is actually a progress !). The money transfers is handled by middlemen and not by the Govt. officials themselves.

The only slow solution to reducing this corruption has been technology, cashless digital transfers etc. It will take another 10 years to reduce to 'acceptable' levels.

Yeah JetBrains IDEs are nice. I use their CLion IDE for Rust and also for web stuff.
If things come to that I doubt the practicality of it all.
But it makes easy headlines. It also makes open source an immortality project for a lot of people.
How do you deal with projects that have multiple Git repositories associated with them, but need to have their issues tracked in a single place?
I'm a bit confused how gender presentation can be not a social construct but gender itself can be a social construct. It seems to me that gender presentation depends on gender.
Recently switched from mac to windows (wsl2). My previous attempts (switching to linux or wsl1) all failed miserably but the wsl2 is pretty good.

And I could build a PC as I wish. Weird times.
Man of his word too.
Try "Sapiens: A brief history of human kind". It teaches you about human history and more important, how we get there. Sometimes the author gets smart, seems like he doesn't believe in anything and human are bad for this planet. But it's worth it. Bill Gates recommended the book too.
This seems to use eBPF. As far as I know, WSL2 doesn't support eBPF. I don't understand how this can be seen as the Extend part of EEE. People really need to calm down.
Valuing short term goals over long term goals is how you get into a vicious cycle of poverty and stagnation. What people might not understand is that the long term goal isn't necessarily more expensive than the value you get out of it. Going to space sounds really "difficult" compared to something "basic" like solving water problems except it ignores that going to space might just be a matter of spending money whereas solving water would require solving political problems. The solution might be easy but it cannot be bought with money.
You don't need any. You can start with a "comet". A self-generated ID (like a self-gen SSL cert, kind-of) and try it out.

I'll close the loop then by acknowledging that it doesn't bother me.
So I read this as being a fight that only the web publishers can wage then.

A minuscule fraction of people are going to write to officials and change their browser / search engine. Even far less of that fraction are going to throw away an expensive flagship phone (And what are they going to buy? Apple? That's sure to go down well amongst the hackernews crowd).
Noctua's cooler is most nice look for me so there's no problem
For a pro body, $3K is cheap. The flagship Nikon DSLR, the D6, has a MSRP of $6,500.
South East Asia. Generally peaceful, good and cheap internet and cost of living is relatively low for Westerners.
These things are always a balance between cost and benefit, and the status quo is just a temporary equilibrium based on oil prices, labour costs, environmental policy, technology, safety standards, business models, etc. and should change as those do.

I try to avoid getting too anchored to incidental aspects of the present. One way is to turn those questions around: what about the people with relatives and friends that already live too far away to make travel feasible? What about all the places that people already can't feasibly get to? What about all of the business which already doesn't get done due to travel practicalities?

There will always be more opportunities to open up by cranking the dial a bit further; but we have to strike a balance somewhere due to the costs. It's a shame that so many opportunities are already blocked by travel costs, but there's no point losing sleep over it. Likewise, if the current costs are too great (e.g. environmentally), then the dial should be turned down a little. Many people would be disadvantaged, but they'd just get added to all those already disadvantaged by the current equilibrium. It's not, in itself, a reason to avoid dialing things down. The things which really matter are: the relative numbers of people affected, whether the budget could be made more equitable or prioritised (e.g. charging frequent flyers more, to keep one-off prices lower), etc.
I use something similar on my own website and it's great. However, it's very limited - I've never seen it applied to anything except for text. It's likely that for most use cases you will need to combine this with at least some traditional breakpoints.

The point of the report is to provide the IOCs for the WellMail malware, which has never been reported before
>A single 1000 grit sharpening stone like Shapton should suffice, but not everyone wants to learn hand sharpening

I recommend learning whetstone sharpening to anyone. It's therapeutic.
Also I guess learning on a water-soaked stone is actually easier (they are cheaper too).

Any tool needs some maintenance and care, knives don't really make an exception. Other than that - ceramic knives would be the no-maintenance ones - if you chip it, buy another.
> encouraging web pages to load faster and be easier to read is absolutely something Google should be doing

Completely disagree. They should focus their energy on fixing their search engine. And all the bugs in gmail. And the bugs in their advertising engine. And maybe stop tracking everyone. and...

> I'll certainly favour a search engine that prioritises fast, easy-to-read pages over one that doesn't.

I won't. I'll favour a search engine that gives me pages that have the best information on them. A search engine that helps me to find the hidden nuggets of information that are hiding in the far corners of the Internet, even if they don't appear on a fast, popular site that earns revenue for google through google ads or by harvesting user data via google analytics.

Oh... you need to fill your RDMS with a bunch of JSON responses from your 3rd party API. So you can then decode them in memory because I actually need to select * where identifier = 'banana' to do analytics.

Meanwhile the API returns highly structured data perfect for a RDMS, but we dont know how to query SQL without an API in the frontend. So welcome to my hell.
Yes.

What evidence do you have that these are police?
I'm not so much referring the the political problem of inhabiting the area, as to the technical and logistical problem of having a near closed loop environmental system. Sure people can and do live in northern Mali or the southern Libyan desert but even those small towns are connected to somewhat established networks of cargo truck delivery.

Set up a colony of 50 people in bir tawil and measure how much outside water, food and other supplies they need (similar problem to biosphere 2) in kg per person per year... And that's in a place where you can extract some water from air moisture, with difficulty , and you can breathe the air outside.

Sounds like that may not be Phabricators fault in that case. I was under the impression that you'd need Arcanist if you wanted to do reviews of diffs.

The problem may have been that we where only allowed to use the Git part.
C.G. Jung once wrote that the moral capabilities of a group of people is 'obviously' inversely proportional to the size of the group.

C.G. Jung was a funny guy. He would write a controversial statement and prefix it with something like 'obviously' or 'as everyone knows'.

C.G. Jungs statement would also apply to nations and it sounds pretty much correct in that case too.
That's because IntelliJ is creating an (I think) inverted index and dependency graph of your project for code completion/Intellisense and it uses multiple CPU cores to do this as fast as possible.

VSC won't do this to the same extent.

Inverted indexes are slow to create, but fast to query.
I don't understand why WSL2 wouldn't support eBPF. It is a mostly vanilla[1] Linux kernel running under a hypervisor, so why couldn't a kernel with eBPF support be used? Indeed, Microsoft's WSL2 kernel has eBPF JIT support turned on – https://github.com/microsoft/WSL2-Linux-Kernel/blob/master/M...

WSL1 yes I agree, it is just a translation layer between Linux and NT syscalls, and features such as eBPF would not be implemented in such a layer.

> Gmail was so groundbreaking when it first came out in 2004.

Can't agree with that; I was there, got the tshirt.

Literally! I still have a tshirt from the gmail launch in 2004: "Google gave me a gig" (meaning 1 GB of storage).

It was mediocre then, terrible now. Hasn't really changed much other than UI tweaks.
This. I’ve had a Benchmade 943 in my pocket every day for more than a decade, but still pack a multitool when camping. Had other knives prior, but kinda lost interest in anything new after getting the 943. Except when wearing a suit... still wouldn’t mind finding a blade a bit more suit-able.
I flew a couple of times transatlantic on 747 upper deck (economy) and it was fine.

But the beauty of the 747 was seeing it from the outside. I once spent an entire afternoon watching them take off and land at JFK (in 1990 I think) and I still remember it fondly. It was incredible, and beautiful.
In general - working on yourself is usually somewhat possible. For many people public speaking etc. is something they have to practice and they do eventually learn. In some situations though it might not be. All individual cases are different.

So I wouldn't be too hard on myself, but also I wouldn't give up. From what I read, you might have already tried, so oh well, maybe you're just stuck with it.

I like "We work with what we have". That's something I deeply agree with.
"Mostly ignored" is [DIVIDE BY ZERO TRAP] times better than "does not exist." Would you prefer nothing at all?
I wonder what it is that you can't do with WSL for which you need LSW?
Most enterprise businesses win because of better sales and distribution, but your product ultimately has to support your sales. Salesforce had both (and other advantages). How does sales work in medium to large B2B? You'll get a RFP with a list of questions, you'll often get a list of features that company X wants. Naturally, as a company, you'd focus on building those features instead of optimising speed.

If the market values fast software, you'll see a lot more fast software. There _is_ a lot of unnecessarily slow software these days, so it _is_ starting to happen. Think Superhuman, Linear.app, etc. — an entire category of software based primarily on the idea of being fast, aimed at the power user. If these apps succeed, you'll see a lot more of them. If the market doesn't value fast software, most commercial software will be slow.
Website owners are not mostly software developers. They just want features for their business to rest on. They may not even understand how ranking works in tech detail. If only developers were motivated to create and use decent code instead of using modern multilayered garbage technology...

They (Microsoft) already have a Linux distribution. Azure Cloud Switch[0].

Perhaps a bit cynical but there is truth to that. A huge company just needs cogs that can do the job and don't think outside the box much.
Very interesting, a team at my company recently started writing an internal UI toolkit as well. The first stage would just be HTML + CSS (and maybe some JavaScript), but the second stage will be web components as well, to make it framework agnostic.
OK, I am one of the young ones :) What are you talking about ? Thank you!

Does the WebExtensions standard permit us to release extensions that bypass AMP URLs when they are visited by the browser?

Could someone please charge me money for that extension on the iOS and macOS App Stores?

I'm not expecting this to be maintained for free, I don't want to install a full-blown ad blocker, I just want a single-task de-AMP-er that just de-AMPs.

(Yes, I use Firefox, but I want to de-AMP all iOS and macOS webviews, not just the ones that load in Firefox.)

Google had no vision with Go, it was just a group of well known developers in the UNIX world that got fed up waiting for their C++ compile times, with a supporting manager that decided to fund their work.

Google is pretty much Java and C++ alongside their infrastructure, and OSes.

K8s prototype was started in Java and migrated to Go after some Go aficionados joined the team.

Besides k8s, you have Google download service (because someone from Go team bothered to port the service to Go), gVisor, parts of Android GAPI, the new internal Android build system, gVisor, and Fuchsia TCP/IP stack that apparently should be rewritten in C++/Rust.

And that is about it, as much as it comes outside.
Yep, RHEL would be an example of open source enterprise software.
Absolutely loved SumoLogic for the six years or so we used it. Threw terabytes of logs at them a month and searches were always fast. Being able to do joins on logs was a godsend. I tried to work there but it seemed like they stopped hiring for a while.

Now I use Loggly... It's okay.

IDEA's IDEs as others have mentioned.

I've built enterprise software I enjoyed using (reputation.com), does that count? :)
I didn't realise WSL2 ran a real Linux kernel. TIL!
Definitely. It's much friendlier than Teams. Even little things like your own personal channel are so thoughtful, I use it outside of work as a cross platform clipboard (files and links).

I also am much more likely to prioritize Slack messages over email. It is just Skype with bells on, but it's still very good in it's own right.

Flying close to the Sun is hard, both because of the thermal environment and the difficulty of achieving trajectories that get close. A mission that launched two years ago, Parker Solar Probe, is actually going to get closer. Parker and Solar Orbiter have different objectives and should complement each other well.

This is obviously wrong, but shouldn’t something as important as a vaccine for the worst pandemic in a century kind of be open source?
Have you looked at Sumo Logic?
I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees Microsoft’s well documented playbook. Embrace (Linux on Windows yay!), Extend (Procmon for Linux yay!). Is extinguish around the corner?

Then again it is different people with a seemingly different playbook. I’m still slightly uncomfortable with it.
I had to dig deep for this since I'm a FOSS specialist and advocate. But if you're going to count softwares that I depend on then Active Directory and vCenter come to mind.
I wouldn't say there is no evidence. And as for previous behaviour, people used to applaud what they were doing when they were embracing OS/2.
"Embrace and extend" I think - appear to adopt or support a technology only to attempt to influence, limit and block later developments. Other examples: J#, the Office XML standards etc etc
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace,_extend,_and_extingu...

The “third e” is extinguish.
by this logic would you say that normal people using tor are providing cover for bad actors?
I have to agree; it's one thing to empower leaders to enact their vision. It's another to give them carte blanch to screw over the people they are supposed to be leaders to. Firing is serious, and it doesn't just affect someone's work life.
beyond compare gets bonus points for having special features for diffing and merging tabular data. for example, if you're comparing a couple of CSV files, you can mark some columns as unimportant to help focus on diffing and merging differences in the remaining columns you deem are important. this can be quite helpful if manually regression testing tabular output from some report generating tool, where most of the output is deterministic but the tool pollutes one column with timestamps or ids that differ every run.

the ability to compare and merge directories is also nice (although a number of open source diff and merge tools also support this -- e.g. kdiff3, meld)

Thank goodness, they’ve cleaned up the to: fields in the compose window at long last. I have been using Thunderbird on and off for a _long_ time, and the lack of UI polish in thins like that has been a constant eyesore.

Too bad that the formatting toolbar seems to have become visually “heavier”, with bolder lines in some icons. I’ll just have to see what the final product looks like on both my Mac and Elementary...
The majority of Linux distributions including Debian and Ubuntu have a GNU userland which is GPL licensed.

The notable exceptions are Android and some distributions and toolkits that target embedded systems such as OpenWRT

Linux without GNU is very far from a desktop Linux distribution experience that most users would recognize.

Microsoft still only has a few primary applications:

SQL Server (already converted)
MS Office suite (including Project and Visio) and Sharepoint
Exchange (for Outlook's best features)
ActiveDirectory (scalable auth + DNS + client management is still hard to beat, but MDMs are catching up)

Beyond that, all they really have is an open source platform (.Net), and a few open source projects (VS Code, PowerShell), and Visual Studio. Oh, and GitHub, I suppose.

Microsoft will not release their version of Linux for sale. They're going to try to make it a high-availability Azure-only service. They're still chasing Apple's and Google's services-only architecture and Amazon's cloud-dominance strategy. Windows will become their legacy server and user client product.
