At first, i thought you delusional, because make no mistake AI will never make quality software better than a dedicated human (that is until AI is so smart that trying to use it in this fashion is tantamount to slavery).

However... The software doesn't need to be good, just functional. Getting good specs is hard too, but the specs don't need to be complete... I could imagine a terrifying world of startups with very fast "functional" MVPs that are slow as dirt and robust as paper with giant bugs caused by bad specs. It wouldn't be too different from the status quo!
Yes, that was a mistake. Diesel was promoted as lower C02 than petrol engines, before the problems with particulates were well known. (1)

This is of course changing now. (2)

As noted in the second link, a factor is the "Volkswagen emissions scandal", AKA "Dieselgate" (3)

Then go after ADA trolls, instead of advocating effectively that disabled people (26% of the population) should just accept dehumanization and utter humiliation through no fault of their own and that they cannot change simply because society considers it too expensive for them to have basic dignity.
It is also VERY patriotic thing to do for your country - bring out your best brainz and make stuff better for your people, instead of promoting more insidious forms of it that we can witness today first hand.

I would very much like to see countries on GitHub the way we have organizations now (or GitLab as its core is FOSS).
It does not work well for multi touch, even from Mac to Mac in my experience.

This sounds like you're describing 4GLs. That was a popular idea a while ago and it has some echos today, but a lot of that effort died. Outside of very specific scenarios (LabVIEW, maybe crystal reports?), the usage is still minimal. I interact with a single clipper application which I hope gets rewritten soon.

The "your analyst will write your low-code solution" idea is still futurism.
Not at all. We have barely scratched the surface of what computers can accomplish and all of that will require programmers. Comment’s mentioning AI obviously haven’t spent much time actually working on AI projects because it is a long time away from being able to even develop simple crud applications without developer intervention. Software Engineers will have jobs long after you and I are dead
Of course it isn't the next big thing.

Just as I and all the crypto skeptics have already said, You cannot use any of these crypto tokens as a form of fast payment, without scams, without damaging the planet, without the huge volatility and speculation and without it also being used on the dark net.

There is no real world legal use-case and it is a complete scam.

I like and agree on this, but just out of curiosity is it more reasonable to attribute the rights for the software to only taxpayers if the rationale is just about where the money come from?
Exactly. Take construction or military machinery as example : they are all running diesel. Who says that's not reliable? Probably after clocking more than 200.000 km and without maintenance.

Fascinating book, full of interesting ideas. I bought my copy in the 1980's. I had a roommate then who I reconnected with lately. He remembered the book and asked about it. I dropped in on him a couple weeks ago and left my copy on loan so he could spend some time with it.
This is a typical EU declaration. Many bureaucrats with their snouts in the trough in Brussels work out some whitepaper to get billable hours. The city of Munich tried to use Linux until Ballmer et al. visited and they backed off.

The EU is a racket for government officials. Most countries are worse off than before, wages go down and the middle/working class is poor. Government buildings look like palaces next to decaying houses of private "citizens" who cannot afford to maintain them (if they can buy a house at all in the first place).
>"Where components differ from microservices is that a component's interface is simply a collection of functions"

Is this a "collection of functions" or "collection of function declarations"? If you want to communicate concepts this is not the best example. And for either case many languages already have the solutions.

Academic researchers use these same types of panels for their studies. Sometimes they use even lower quality sample sources since their budgets typically aren’t as high as corporate market researchers.

That said, research panels have huge issues across the board. I’d bet a significant majority of ‘Americans’ responding to this study are using vpns to participate from other countries.
> Google sucks compared to Google from years ago.

Sure, in the sense that someone who had their legs broken sucks at running. Compared to yesterdays, Google today has to deal with a whole new level of the entire world trying to game their search. It's easy to fetch good water when the well is clean and no one is trying to actively poison it.
They do this especially if there’s a diversity clause for interviews. They already have an internal candidate but need to interview at least one person of color or other diversity qualification. It wastes everybody’ time.
Torque.
By having reputable sources. And most likely having people reviewing upgrades, what you're installing and what the building code is doing (and running it in a sandbox). This role is usually taken by the distribution's packagers. As some kind of users cooperative, distribution have very distinct incentives from software vendors. This separation has been eroded with the advent of self-publishing "app stores" (like the commercial ones, but also by npm, pypi, crates.io etc, and by flathub or snapcraft). See [1] and [2] from DeVault on this topic. This topic has been solved, it just needs manpower. And just because major distributions have some perceived bureaucratic overhead doesn't mean it's an intrinsic caracteristic. Official repos on arch, alpine and probably tons of other distribs are actually updated really quick and really simply (and still sometimes have patches applied to them, or support files, etc).

PS: These aren't "terrorist attacks". It's quite emotional, judgmental and not very precise nor meaningful. Some random dude pushed malware in a supply-chain attack. From wikipedia on terrorism:

> Having the connotation of "something morally wrong", the term "terrorism" is often used to abuse or denounce opposite parties, either governments or non-state groups.

> It is common for both parties in a conflict to describe each other as terrorists.
I have no intention of embracing victim mentality.

Virtualization is working on Linux, but the macOS story is not that. We run macOS inside a custom VM hypervisor I wrote, on bar metal, passing through almost all the hardware.

macOS is unlikely to run inside a VM on Linux any time soon, because the desktop environment requires a paravirtualized Metal graphics device, which means writing an entire Metal implementation for Linux. You can run the XNU kernel in text mode though, even on non-M1 systems.

Yeah, so on Ubuntu the only supported installation is the ‘snap’ installation.
If all that people see are the ADA trolls they need to spend more time looking at their disabled brothers and sisters.

At the end of the day the question is, are we content to let them crawl? Are we content for the public space to be segregated? Would we allow this for our family or ourselves?

If we consider these things unacceptable then we need regulations. Regulations come with drawbacks and avenues for abuse, all of them, but it shouldn't be the primary and prevalent focus when they're put into place to protect marginalized sections of society. In a healthy society, I would expect of a tech forum to mainly be discussing tech tips and methods to comply with these norms. The truth is people don't want to do the minimum work to help these people, western societies are incredibly individualist and every effort or capital spent on helping others is seen as personal injury. It's this mindset that makes it so even in new products and constructions, the simplest norms aren't applied. I think there needs to be a change of mindset, because the first thing that should come to people's minds when reading this article is the social good that will come of it, not the reactionary examples of abuse.
I was confused because you were replying to a comment which mentioned the "long video", so I assumed you were both talking about the forty-minute one on the homepage of the documentation. My mistake.

Yeah agreed, not having continuity support in Music baffles me
I use it to pay for DNS and my phone bill, it works very well for periodic payments especially for experimental digital products (I get VOIP service from a Canadian startup that got kicked off paypal.)

I really like the idea of having an "ssh for money" even if its less fast. Early this year a bank randomly closed my account for no reason without telling me and mailed the contents to my sister's house in a cashiers check.
I don't know any large successful project that is sponsored. Probably some boondoggles run by friends and family that go nowhere.

Suspect projects include GAIA X (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GAIA-X#Controversies). It will probably have the same success as the NHS software fiasco, which wasted £10bn:

3 areas I want OSS to have REAL government backing:

- Libre / Open Office because open document standards aid collaboration and reverse compatibility.

- Video / audio conferencing because security and the network effect there are so important.

- Operating system because if you make the leap to an OS OS then all the incentives align to promote usage of open source software for everything by default.

> It's very solidly constructed, so there's little to no noise from neighbours, not that they make much noise to begin with as they're a pretty considerate bunch.

Neither of these things have been even remotely true in any apartment I've lived in the US, even ones billed "luxury". It's always been thin-walled garbage where I can hear every word of every conversation of my neighbors, who have typically felt that listening to music 24 hours a day and slamming down their boots while walking between rooms is the right thing to do.
coming from embedded my biggest complaint is _some_ companies gluing together or building on top of open source and monetizing it. instead of building their solutions in house from scratch.

> But I doubt it's the optimum for a text based UI, at least for most applications.

Why do you think so? When I came across the first Newt apps years later (Red Hat installer and tools) I was actually surprised how less user-friendly and intuitive these newer TUIs were wen compared to TV.

One big advantage of TV was that it was consistent: when you learned how to use one app, you more or less knew how to use all other TV-based apps.
Denmark really needs to step up its game here. We function on a public tender system where behemoth private corporations bid on public sector solutions (like our digital ID system, public childcare app, corona pass, digital post, etc.) None of this code is OSS and the result is very shady behavior from certain giants (I'm looking squarely at you Netcompany) who hold our digital infrastructure hostage.

I've worked directly in this sector as a SWE for a few years now and I can tell you it is rotten. We pay vast quantities in taxes and what we pay to these parasitic corporations out of our taxes is exploitive.

I hope we can turn this ship around but we're so deep in the muck I don't know how we can extricate ourselves without getting pulled down in the consequent riptide.
I’m an Apple developer, and own lots of Apple products.

Apple gear and software always has a low-level advantage, as they own the SDK, but I haven’t seen them actually use this to deliberately disadvantage competitors (unlike some other companies that I won’t mention).

That said, I have seen them “Sherlock” developers, though; where they implement integrated versions of products made by independent devs. This has been fairly controversial, as they have not always paid/given credit to the developers they plowed under. That sucks, because it would, literally, cost them nothing to simply mention the product that inspired their work. I suspect that’s because lawyers.

I tend to like Apple for the same reason that other developers hate them. That “walled garden” is a big fat PItA, but it is also the reason for an enormous, lucrative, market. We need to learn to take the bad with the good, if we want to be happy.
He is such a good writer, I'm listening to quicksilver at the moment. The way he twists and turns a story and weaves in history is so enjoyable.
FOSS alone is no enough anymore, we need lean, simple from all perspectives (but able to do a good enough job), and stable in time FOSS.

For instance, noscript/basic (x)html browsers are beyond than enough for citizen access of administration sites (namely a google(blink|geeko)/apple(webkit) should not be mantadory).
they’re not in the same universe, but i’m not about to let someone perpetuate the myth that american billionaires are some kind of pure self-made businessmen - they’re system exploiters
I would like to throw in the often used "Public Money = Public Code". I personally agree with your sentiment but would like to throw in that an open source, but not open contribution, similiar to SQLite may be a good addition for using OSS at this level.
Ah, missed that one.

The faces were weird to look at. Too many of them.

The best I have seen in the "X does not exist" category is https://thisbeachdoesnotexist.com .
I’ve used barrier for years and love it. It’s great for separating personal and work devices but having access to both at once. But it requires some effort to run if the server is a static always on workstation, and constant effort if the server is a laptop which goes to sleep and/changes its IP address. I would never recommend it to someone that might need support.
> I would define the crypto movement as a group of people against financial institutions.

That is just wrong. The crypto movement is not just people and not everybody of them defines himself as "against financial institutions". It is like claiming all Linux people as "against Windows".

> Why Blockchain is not going to be the next big thing?

Because it has been established as previous one?
Specifically, things on that list are things that work already, but are disabled or not merged into our release kernels yet because they aren't quite ready for end users.

So they "work" already, just not in the kernel packages I'm building :-)
It was a notion I've heard formulated a few times, but who has ever had a product manager who cared about it?

To me, the browser is an application platform. That it originated as a document viewer is historical trivia.
Very important point, this.

But of course Borland could fix that quite easily.
Its stuff like what you outlined that drove me into product management. Technically better almost never easily translates to market success. you think TCP/UDP is bad? we are stuck with light water reactors because they were the first commercially viable plant design. Had a lead cooled reactor been viable before that we could have a much different nuclear power landscape. People could implement a new technology, but getting people to use it is the realm of sales, marketing, and the dark side of tech.
I think car usage is likely to go up unless the crime in cities is dealt with. For that to happen we have to stop calling constructive peace keeping work "racist" though and that seems unlikely.

How do you TDD before you have anything running end-to-end? Do you do the first chunk of development with only one test? Do you recurse down so you have several layers of failing tests at the start? I don't like either of those options much personally.

>If you want the web to be cookieless and JS-less

Where did the author explicitly asked for the web to be cookieless and JS-less?

All he asked was for the page to be showing HTML. And furthering inferring, may be pages could use less JS when they not needed?
No idea, but is that a problem for the 1Password people to fix? Google could change Chrome so it doesn’t support plugins whatsoever. Whose responsibility is that?
Honestly closer to the truth than is comfortable, even improvements to public utilities are routed through private companies with such vague contractual agreements that the primary losers are the supposed beneficiaries?!

That is indeed what I did. I live frugal/cheaply, and am able to save a large relative proportion. This also means that living for a time on government handouts (in case when I would be being fired) is in fact not a big step down in income at all.
This sounds good, however, the biggest problem is sustainability of FOSS if there are commercial alternatives. FOSS needs to be simply made competitive and agencies need to get their procurement processes straight. FOSS is already better and cheaper in the long run, but commercial companies will likely win most bids. FOSS is IMHO no value in itself, but it has value if used and supported by govs and it is just procurement that has gone all wrong.

Edit: to explain the value thing: just look at all the crappy FOSS build by many H2020 funded projects(there are exceptions) You can waste money also for building FOSS. Particularly if companies building it see no value in maintaining it and nobody has incentives to jump in.
Lol that's a great find
No, you couldn't if you want to ever reach any reasonable threshold of adoption. Most people don't care in the slightest, if they even know about, for federation. They want emojis, and being able to video call grandson. I'd argue stories has been turning into a requirement as well. The WhatsApp feature set.
Then you have a lot of people who want the Discord feature set. Any missing feature and "this sucks let's go to Discord".

The world has already tried decentralization without putting the average user's needs and wants first, it's called XMPP and it's there for you to use and call the echo server, if there even is one to respond. Matrix has a long way to go, but at least it hasn't given up before it started.
