It's easy to make something multi-platform, but as many lone developers on all OS's have experienced, it quickly becomes a nightmare to maintain more than one platform.

Given the ease of macOS GUI development to begin with, there are more small-time, lone developers making full GUI apps there, versus other platforms.

Other platforms have a higher barrier of entry in that regard, so the landscape is more conducive to having already started out as a team and so developing a more significant app worthy of that kind of investment.

I run a corporate data science department and I've been fortunate enough to have management's support to run things however I want as long as I'm getting the job done. I built an MVP for a report in R with an intention of replacing it with a production-level language. Boss loved the report exactly as written and I realized the R version was good enough. Choosing a tool can involve striking a tough balance between "good enough" and avoiding creating technical debt, but trusting the people running the project to make the right choice is key.

So if you need that package in your 10 projects, do you copy those 20 lines of code in your 10 projects? Yikes. Then what happens when it requires a change? Do you make the change in all your projects? Double yikes. When it becomes 30 lines, do you still copy/paste those 30 lines in all your projects? Do you also copy/paste the tests related to those 30 lines in all your projects? ...

Having reusable code wrapped into packages is basic software engineering.

Please don't attack a strawman. I linked to that dailykos page because it happens to be the only one that had a copy of Reagan's letter on DuckDuckGo's first page of search results for "reagan letter to patco". For what it's worth, when I first read that letter years ago, I remember being in awe at Reagan's mastery of the political arts.

If I may quote Jeffrey Pelt from The Hunt for Red October: "Listen, I'm a politician, which means I'm a cheat and a liar, and when I'm not kissing babies I'm stealing their lollipops. But it also means I keep my options open."
I think you betray your lack of understanding by categorizing any religious belief aside from fundamentalism as "cherry picking whatever pieces of the bible...". There is a 2,000 year old tradition of hermeneutic interpretation of the bible, resulting in dozens of different, more nuanced approaches to reading and thinking about the book. But you've brushed all that aside as "cherry picking" so that your criticism can still be coherent without having to make any effort to learn more than you already know. You must maintain a narrow, simplistic definition of religion in order to retain confidence in your belief system. Isn't that a bit backwards?

One individual making up a story about a turtle is not a religion. Religions emerge from thousands of years of collective human consciousness. The stories are told and retold from millions of mouths to millions of ears. You understand that input to a human's cognitive system can shape their perception, consciousness, behavior, of course? These stories and characters have accompanied us through every technological revolution from agriculture to smartphones. Repeated through countless generations, they have literally shaped us as a species. With that suggestion in mind, can you really confront the idea that God is "The Word", and that we are "made in his image", without even a tiny amount of awe and wonder?

I recently built a Bluetooth transmitter that can advertise by transmitting binary bits at 5gbps, which has essentially the same physical characteristics as USB 3.0 [1]. Whereas I used an FPGA, I wonder if one could intermingle the right bits amidst the rest of the USB 3.0 protocol to build a bluetooth transmitter...

It's not surprising but still insane that so many USB cables aren't properly shielded, thus making all of the FCC's efforts regulating devices effectively useless as your USB cable turns into an antenna to transmit garbage.

why would the variability does create a tax nightmare? You are only taxed when you sell at a specific price
Having spent some time around a subset of what I think you would call high level financiers, for the most part they don’t really know what it is or understand it, and it isn’t relevant to their day to day job of doing transactions.
I think the limits will certainly come down to the consequences the "words" bring with them. Without them the discussion is quite theoretical. You can safely say "everything is allowed" and then defer to another ontological realm where you cleanly separate the actions from the words.

However if someone in reality would start to smear you and especially other people like your wife or daughter with some verbal shit so they would have to suffer from it the limits of freedom of speech would look different.

Maybe we recognize the contributions and influences of others in his work? Hofstadter is a big time guy, but he's not a self-centered egoist like Kurzweil. He'll regularly talk about the ideas he's bounced around with buddies like Daniel Dennett, etc. I see him as more of a poet than a philosopher or scientist. He is piecing together little bits of truth from many, many, different domains and showing how they reach the same conclusions. There's been nobody like him for over 50 years, so it's very difficult to draw comparisons to others, or even measure the impact of his contributions.

time and money to bring it to you. Tell me what's good
about it and what you use it for. That's how you create a

and not a vending machine. Value my work so that I can
value your insights into it.

"Independent" may have been overstating it, I just think something is being lost when we frame one religion (or even a subset of its concepts) as being purely derivative of another. Just because ideas are similar doesn't necessarily mean they have the exact same origin, and in fact I think it's much more interesting to look at the cases where they didn't have the same origin, because it tells us something about ourselves as human beings.

Congratulations on such a long and successful run for TenFourFox. It’s a great project and losing TenFourFox will certainly spell the end of 10.4 daily driving and the many G4 machines which cannot be upgraded further. To me it is a testament to TenFourFox’s capability.
USB 4 is essentially Thunderbolt 3. It transports either USB 3(.2), PCIe, or DisplayPort in one of two variants.

Support for these features is still mostly optional. The only real upgrade is that -- as far as I can tell -- USB4 requires host devices to support DisplayPort. It's still a USB-C connector, so I don't see the cabling situation improving.
I am not claiming to have perfect vision of this order, but I am asserting that it exists and we have no choice but to sit in it's judgment. We can argue and and discuss about the specifics, but when I and other religious people are discussing morality, that is what we are trying to do. To make our morals and actions more in line with the ultimate objective morality.

I do not mean this as a flame, but I honestly do not understand why a person who believes in subjective morality would even discuss morality at all. If all morality is simply in the eye of the beholder, moral progress is impossible and it is not possible for one view to be superior to another.

There's no simple solution to this problem but note that the problem is not so much that we're "bored of disputation" is that we're "overwhelmed with disputation".

It's always the same issues: making a bold, unsubstantiated, potentially inflammatory claim like "Vitamin E is the future of medicine and you should all take supplements, don't listen to what big pharma says!" takes only 10 seconds. Debunking the claim however would require some time and effort, mainly because proving a negative is always more time consuming that making a wild claim.
Interesting though experiment.

Similarly, why do humans sometimes need to pay for urinating (I'm looking at you German SaniUnfair), but animals don't?
The depletion of ports on computers and forced migration to dongles is a trend I am absolutely baffled by. Whenever I'm given the chance I will always go for a laptop with an Ethernet port and as many USB ports as possible - even if that results in a thicker profile. Weight is something I care moderately about, thinness is something that has zero value for me since we passed the inch and a half threshold.

I also, personally, have a strong preference for USB Type A connectors over the Type C and Micro variants, cable stability and port wear is noticeably lessened with the larger cable seating.
> I do not agree that there will always be drivers who prefer to pee in a bottle

Nonsense. I know people who would rather pee in a bottle than wait for the next gas station on the I5. I personally have pissed on the sides of roads in lots of places on long car trips.

Dumping urine in an urban environment is pretty rude. But if I could save myself 10 mins a day by pissing in a bottle rather than some creepy gas station bathroom, why not? It's just piss.
Ah, I knew about that, but it totally slipped my mind. Regardless, there were loopholes, like jewelry. Maybe a bitcoin ban would just mean art like NFTs become suddenly popular.
I'm a Lutheran and I've studied the works of Luther. When I learned about the Orthodox church as an adult, I really liked what I saw. If Luther had been an Orthodox priest, I wonder if he would have launched his gentle rebellion (and, later, his not-so-gentle rebellion).
It wasn't in anybody's yard, it was in the road. And they didn't pee there, they emptied a bottle.
I think my favorite part is just how short some of these articles really are once you remove all the nonsense and extra crap in the web pages.

I guess I could tell you but I also guess you will not understand. Have you ever had a bug in production on a site that can sell for 10 000 000€ on an evening just cause some guy corrected a stupid spelling mistake? I have.

What I'm saying is that all these issues goes into the same funnel as everything else and get prioritized. If you feel that all these small issues is a problem. Fine, fix them. Otherwise, your senior developers will spend more time reading unnecessary pull requests about garbage than producing real code.
Taken to its logical conclusion, nothing can be tolerated but tolerance itself.

Kind of an inversion of Chesterton's 'Tolerance is the virtue of the man without convictions.'
Your counter-argument does not work.
It actually provides one more similarity between Communism and the various variants of Christianity and it makes stronger my analogy.

Yes the communists persecuted the other religions, inclusive by imprisoning and/or killing many Catholic priests and many Orthodox priests.

However, this is exactly what was previously done by some kinds of Christians against other kinds of Christians, e.g. during the many conflicts between Protestants and Catholics and between Catholics and Orthodox Christians.

Some people downvoted me, but this also just validates my affirmation that most Westerners are not aware of these facts and they do not understand Communism.

I have grown in a country occupied by communists, so I know from direct experience how Communism works, not from the fantastic depictions typical for the Western movies or novels.

When I was in school, there was nothing that I hated more than the mandatory classes of communist religion, the so-called Political teachings.

Also, due to the stupidity of one of my colleagues, a teacher discovered that I had a Bible and, because of that, I was almost expelled from High School a short time before the final exam, but I was very lucky due to some special circumstances and I could avoid the expulsion.

Many years later, after communism failed, I believed that the new generations of students will escape my fate and they will no longer waste time with the mandatory religion classes.

Unfortunately, my hope was wrong, because the mandatory Political teachings classes were not deleted from the curriculum, but they were replaced by mandatory Christian religion classes.

So nothing has changed, when the Communist religion was mandatory, I had almost lost my career because it was supposed that I might be Christian, but if I were a student today, I would have similar problems if I would attempt to criticize in school the Christian religion, for exactly the same reasons that were applicable to Communism.
I think the problem is not so much "having done stupid things," but in general "doing stupid things, refusing to apologize, and doubling down when called out on them."

Cables have another advantage: it's much easier to switch devices, just plug it in, no more connecting and disconnecting and figuring out how that specific device has implemented pairing.

Indeed. I live close to an interstate in a rural area and the neighbors to a trash pickup every year. We're actually picking up trash on the "frontage road" rather than the interstate, but the two are only 100' apart. I can tell you that truck drivers peeing in bottles then throwing said bottles out the window is very common.
