I feel like they are doing so many things right, including on the visual side, I can't possibly conceive they don't give any thought on this.

Actually I don't even need to give a feeling, I can just list some links where you can notice how they take care of this aspect:

- https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/design

- https://develop.kde.org/hig (the human interface guidelines)

- https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/design/Breeze

Frankly, read through their guidelines. And that's not even all, regular design decisions are publicly made on the bug tracking system and the mailing lists. A lot of care is given on this aspect. There are hints on it on Nate's blog too.

That's not a matter of personal opinion to be sorry about (?!) at this point. It's just plain wrong.

That these decisions are good at all, or lacking, is another thing, and that you don't like these decisions is also another thing. On this last thing, it's your taste, nobody can argue with this.

Now that everything seems out of place is probably a matter of habits too. But KDE does not "click" for everybody, and it's fine, as much as I would like it to spread more. Specific constructive feedback from the many people like you, for who KDE does not click, might help a lot.
When someone says "that works out of the box" what I hear is "I don't want to spend time customizing things to work better for me", which is fine, but surprising coming from someone who claims to have used tiling window managers.
No but I suspect many hardware products use FPGAs, which can be updated as you would firmware, and indeed are often updated during firmware updates.
I do delete texts, I don't like them taking up visual space. However, I wouldn't if I was a public servant doing public business on my phone. That'd be monstrous.
That progress has nothing to do with capitalism. Almost any economy can create technology. Even the soviet union's ridiculous bureaucracy was able to bring rapid world-changing technological progress to some of the most under-developed siberian wilderness.

Describing it in what you call "relative terms" describes the unjust exploitation, the shackles that chain people while pretending to free them. The shackles that prevent all this progress from actually allowing people to work less (examine this: did "leisure time" actually continue to increase after the industrial revolution took us out of farming? or did it level off everywhere except for outliers like germany and france?)
Closing your eyes to the cost doesn't mean that the cost isn't there.

For example, maybe lettuce grown and sold from California can be bought at $2/head. If you were to truly factor in the misuse of water, maybe the cost should be $3. Maybe at $3, lettuce grown in Florida, Oregon, Vermont and Iowa is cost-competitive. A lot of maybes, sure, but the point is that if you were to charge for the water what the water actually should cost, then that cost actually gets built into the system, and the market can work. You can't have your cake and eat it - for a market system to work, you need to actually allow pricing to reflect the actual costs.
Companies play by the rule "better sorry than safe" but force their users to play by "better safe than sorry".

As others have mentioned, they main issue is not the autobanning (it sure is a false positive, those things inevitable happens on mass-scale products) but the appeal rejection that fails to detect it.
Groff is great. I went through a phase of doing reports for work using groff and one of the cool things is that on W Richard Stevens' website there were all his groff macros he used to produce all the beautiful diagrams in TCP/IP Illustrated etc. So I used to have lovely diagrams with spline curves etc thanks to W Richard Stevens.

The great thing about groff (compared in my experience with latex) is that you spend basically zero time on formatting/messing about once you have a set of macros you like, and the document production cycle is really fast so you edit with zero distractions using basically plain text (a lot like markdown) and then any time you want to see the finished product it's very quick to see it.

This will indeed require delaying population of the array to the compilation stage. However it's worth the convenience and the succinctness of the syntax, and it's not that substantially complex to implement.

The Paradox of Production Alerts
I guess a city-wide network of cell towers could surreptitiously function as a phased array missile detection and air traffic radar too? The resolution but deep across enemy lines.
A) The OP did not mention this.

B) even if he did it would be kind of like saying that your 500k house isnt really worth 500k because if you walked out on to the street and and asked passers by for offers for a maximum of one hour you would almost certainly not get 500k.
I really like the library for makers concept. Since public libraries exist wouldn't the same concept work for a makerspace? I can't think of anything more interesting right now than new ways of socializing the means of production.

Not that I'm against such spaces being self funded and organized, but apparently it's not working well financially, so public funding could make it work and I can only think of net positive returns for the public.
Your point being? If you are building a many-billion-dollar company on user-submitted content, moderation is pretty much a necessity. A hospital can't decide not to sterilize because it is "too difficult" either, can it?

Especially when it comes to Google, which tries to entangle itself in every aspect of your life, being banned from all services without any potential for a proper review just because a neural network decided to throw a hissy fit is completely unacceptable.
Non-existent to a close approximation (maybe more Elixir stuff out there than the others you listed but still very rare). Learn those languages if you’re interested and curious but if the goal is to get a job with a new to you language, stay as far away as possible from them. Not only are there very few jobs but also the niche languages will distract you from learning stuff that’s in demand.

Think of it as a taste of what is to come when water will become more scarce. This is pretty much in line with predictions and the term 'water war' may well become commonplace in the near future.

How long until people start selling DRM technology that purposely prevents people from sharing clips of games on Twitter and Facebook by embedding adversarial GAN attacks to trick the AI into thinking that they contain illegal content.
this isn't adding a new feature. This is replacing a feature that everyone already implemented independently on every other project - some with xxd, some with special embedders such as rcc or windres or whatever, some through CMake directly (like this: https://gist.github.com/sivachandran/3a0de157dccef822a230 for instance) - in a standard and more performant way. Instead of being paid per-project this cost will now be paid per-compiler implementation which is unambiguously good as there are <<< compilers than C projects.

i am a long time proton paid user but im in the process of moving business to fastmail.

Here is why:

- No autofwd. This is essential for any business Fastmail has this.
- No imap/ POP (usecase: integrating with clickup email)
- no iOS calendar app
- recent pricing changes
- pricing on a per domain basis

Ive wanted to support proton and ive paid to so that for a while, but my understanding is that product releases are very slow.

Ive come to believe that protons cadence of releases is not sufficient for a regular business that has to move faster to keep with competition.

I was a big supporter of proton, but starting a business using the proton suite now is a poor and expensive business decision.

i hope this changes in the future.

My criticism is on the business plans. Personal may suffice for most needs.

It depends on your definition of small files. A few hundred kB to a few megabytes will make compilation speed and memory usage explode if you embed it as text, see section 3.2 in https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n3017.htm#i...

I concur. I find HN to be right-leaning. haha.
I ran into so many Stack Overflow "mirrors" yesterday like this: https://www.anycodings.com/1questions/400836/swiftui-update-...

10 years I gave up on a large project where I rehosted and organized dead Usenet forum content because Google's dupe-penalty detector was too good and too aggressive for content that you could barely find beyond a six-year-old cache hit where the origin website was long gone.

Meanwhile these Stack Overflow scrapers are just `<html>{copy-and-paste}</html>` and the same domains are still alive despite years of cloning.

Looks like it's time to boot my project back up.
Same. I always really like/liked the Windows UX, up through and including Vista/7. MacOS had a lot of nice ideas, but ultimately I just want my computer to feel like "Windows but better". KDE is exactly that for me.

Also, everything in KDE (at least in the Fedora KDE distribution) amazingly "just works".

KDE has been an astounding revelation for me in how good FOSS can be, and I feel like no matter how much I donate, they deserve more than I am giving them.
There are a lot of attempts to brute for 3389 RDP and 5900 VNC, I see them on all my nodes tarpit rules. For completeness sake I should add that people should not depend on this blocking as the 10 minute account lockouts will only stop targeted attacks and not all the bots. Some of the better written bots ...admittedly there are not many, distribute their attempts across many targets reducing the probability of a lockout. For clarity what I mean is that they might brute force several hundred thousand IP addresses they found 3389 open on but only hit each unique IP once every {interval based on number of targets}.

In my opinion the windows machines should be behind a VPN or at least a firewall that restricts access to known CIDR blocks to limit the number of bots that could reach it.

Another option that will take away the non-targeted bots is the same method used by many in SSH and that is to change the listening port for RDP. [1] This is security through obscurity and works like a charm when putting nodes behind a VPN is just not possible. e.g. change 3389 to something like 33389. This will not stop a determined attacker but will most certainly cut out 99+% of the bots and remove logging most events and reduce risk of alert fatigue. This will also keep the non-targeted bots from locking out your accounts and creating support headaches. To see what ports nmap scans by default i.e. ports to avoid on a modern version of nmap, use:

nmap -v -oG - | grep "Ports scanned"

Another mitigating control is to use names that bots would never guess from their dictionaries and lock out all default windows accounts. e.g. instead of bill.gates consider an uncommon nickname such as sillybilly. There are additional privacy benefits to this such as keeping your name out of the myriad of application telemetry API's.

And lastly if you don't RDP into your machines then make sure remote desktop and all other remote access services are disabled. Check what is listening with

netstat -nabo

Or use tcpview from the SysInternals tools from Microsoft [2] too see what is listening or talking on your windows machine. Use care when "locking down" a windows machine. There are many powershell scripts on github that are excessive and may break your machine.

Always back up your registry and create a restore point if you intend to make changes to the registry.

You want to push content in a decentralised fashion? Run your own website, and provide an rss or atom feed so people can use their own aggregators. We've had this tech since the 90s.

It involves effort, though - not much effort, but a little more than posting on Twitter, Tumblr or wherever; and this, it turns out, is sufficient.

> I fight hard to read the web in my way.

Turns out most people posting content don't want to fight hard to post it, and most people reading content don't want to fight hard to read it, and this is why twitter, facebook et al are big things, rather than everyone just having their own sites and decentralised syndication.

If something else is to take twitter's place, its barriers to entry must be at least as low as twitter's.
We write Elixir at my current job.
From the description, proportionally more fertilizer (and water) is required, because one of the effects of the genetic change is an increased rate of extraction for the nitrogen compounds from the soil.

The increased rate of nitrogen extraction, together with the higher rates of photosynthesis (which needs water to provide the hydrogen for reducing carbon dioxide, nitrates and sulfates) and of carbon dioxide reduction lead to a higher productivity.

Unlike for some of the other genetically-modified crops, from the description there does not seem to be any reason to worry about eating such a rice, as the genetic modification does not seem to have any qualitative effects, but only quantitative effects, resulting in higher rates for the same chemical processes as in non-modified rice, obtained by multiplying the reaction sites.

In my experience the job market just revolves around business needs combined with transferrable skills for an affordable price.

Most business needs are a cheap version of CRUD+Business Rules.

As a result, the biggest languages (keep in mind that most businesses have large amounts of existing code) are also relatively old (except Go, C# and Swift which are relatively young).

Languages I see with my current clients and have seen with former clients and employers (medium to large organisations):

- Java (Including Scala, Kotlin and Groovy)
- C and C++ (usually both are found at the same company)
- Python
- JavaScript (including TypeScript)
- Web stuff like HTML and CSS (but that's mostly generated now)
- Go
- Swift (and Objective-C, mostly iOS development, some tvOS and macOS)
- C# be it modern or some classic ASP.NET
- A bunch of application-specific languages, Apex/PL-SQL/TSQL/X++

Besides "we already have it" there is the hiring pool problem. If you need to find someone for one of the above languages, the pools are generally big and available enough to find a suitable candidate in a month or two. And as such, if someone leaves you know you'll be able to replace hem.

If a platform or application demands a specific language, that's used, but otherwise it's all just availability of people and institutional knowledge.

For your specific languages you might be able to find work at niche sectors like telecom appliance manufacturers, defense or academic institutions.

Edit: and Rust, which like Go, is young (but even younger) yet gaining quite some traction. Also forgot Python for a second there.
How do you prevent someone from copying your RSS and making it their RSS? Where is the proof that you published it first?

How do you show that you have many followers when you publish via RSS?

How do you "like" something you read via RSS?

How do you comment on it?

How do you like and comment in a way that proves your identity?

How do you prove to the world that your identity is important - aka that you have lots of followers and likes?

These are the bits and pieces the digital social fabric is made of. Currently it is all owned by companies.

How long is 'a very long time'?

I've been using Debian / KDE as my primary desktop & laptop environment since late last century, and it's been mostly a dream. The 4->5 transition involved some frustration, certainly, but it was relatively short-lived. Compared to forays into Unity & Gnome the experience was, even during those dark days, consistently better.

Sizes of icons, buttons, fonts, window borders, etc etc are all customisable, so it's weird that was a sticking point for you.
Could you share some more details? What kind of project is it? Did/do you hire your team who already knew Elixir, or did they learn on the job?
Likewise. I tried using the Mountain Project a few times and just gave up due to the clunkiness.

I now use a combination of the RockFax app and printed guidebooks. The latter are generally a better experience but comments on the app sometimes come with up-to-date info that helps (a foothold that cracked and raised the grade, a rusty bolt, whatever).
Ruckus/Brocade effectively does this now with their licenses all being honor system.

> Currently, our public squares are owned by private megacorporations

Here's the problem I have with this analogy. Is it analogous to a public square (as in public property, owned by the state, maintained by tax payer money)? Or is it a private property that allows people to congregate for free but puts up ads to raise money, and many consider it as good as a public square, because most people they like hang out here. And like any business, they choose to deny service to some users (and not all users agree on this). Also, there are multiple such private spaces.

Maybe the real solution is just like in the physical world, there should be state owned online spaces that are real "public spaces" and denying service here would be the govt denying rights.
Does the calculation stay the same looking decades ahead?

I'd have guessed that 200k to rip it down & build a new house that has great insulation - or even to just retrofit insulation and other upgrades to the existing building - would be expected to last longer before costing the same amount against to replace (and/or pricey maintenance/insurance of the more expensive PV, aircon etc.). And might therefore work out cheaper when looked at as a 50 year question rather than 1 year one?

I don't presume to know more than you, not only don't I know about your specific situation I also know very little about these subjects generally, I'm just curious.
To me it means: I don't have to spend a whole week tweaking stuff so the DE won't get break my workflow with annoying things.

Which then translates to bugs here and there, inconsistency and may other problems.

And while Gnome is a pain in the *s sometimes because they remove features, it's still better than the alternatives to me.
This is why I abandoned GNOME in favor on the other major OS DE.
