Sorry on the nitpicking - we will have to dig into our pockets even if government does something. Government does not have magic money it is also “our money”.

One would say government would levy fees on big companies but then companies will charge customers more.
Well, of course.

But if I accept a contribution, I'm already accepting responsibility for it, so I will not accept it unless I understand it and test the snot out of it.

This is another reason I don't accept contributions from individuals.
Go is sane? I just started using it and the parsing libraries all standardize tags and reflection.

Not exactly sane. Go is one of the most clunkiest awkward languages I've ever worked with. The only benefit is that it's somewhat easy to learn.

Every country in the world has their share of far right bozos. Those of Azov are quite mild, by the way. And they are putting their lives where their mouths are, suprisingly, going out and fight Russians. Unlikely their European or US ideology brothers, who mostly fight the police during and after football games. Or, even worse, harmless LGBT folks on pride parades.

The AFD is currently the second most popular political party in Germany and the strongest in many parts. It's also better described as center-left.
To be clear:

OpenJDK refers to different things. One of the things it refers to is an open source repository. (a git repo, to oversimplify things). It also refers to a 'packaging' - more on that later.

OpenJDK (the repo) is source code, not something ready-to-install or distributable on its own. It's open source. Anybody can 'package' it - compile it, wrap an installer around it, put that on a website. Make some arrangement about keeping it up to date (which may involve putting in the license click-through: Hey, you're on your own). Lets call that a 'packaging' of the OpenJDK project.

Packagings come in many flavours. They are all effectively identical, in that it's just a different party running the build script and sticking it on their website. Some _do_ add tweaks (generally, in the form of backports of security patches) but they either don't or these tweaks are in such exotic areas you are extremely unlikely to run into them.

Some versions are blessed by oracle as 'LTS' - Long Term Support. In theory this is a made up thing that only applies to one of the 2 packagings oracle releases. In practice every packaging that makes a distinction between support duration follows oracle's LTS schedule.

The common packagings:

* Oracle JDK - this is a __commercial__ offering, for all versions, though there is a 'developer release' that costs nothing, but __only__ for the most recent version. The concept of a long-term version applies partly to the actual commercial license (in that _all_ versions enjoy long support, with LTS versions longer) - and doesn't apply at all to the dev release, in that the day a new release of OpenJDK (the source repo) shows up is the day the dev release of the previous version ceases to be supported. LTS version or not.
* Oracle's OpenJDK - this is a free release for developers that does not engage in LTS anything. The day the source repo has a new major version is the day the old OpenJDK version is no longer supported regardless of LTS. __Hence, do not use this, even though it is the most popular, unless you really know what you are doing__.
* Adoptium is a packager that follows the LTS schedule, and is run with FOSS ideas. This should be your default choice.
* Azul is a commercial entity that offers a boatload of packagings. Including JREs (JDKs without the dev parts, e.g. without a compiler) which aren't really a thing anymore.
* Amazon offers corretto, which is a packaging that they explicitly test on AWS servers. Free, and follows the LTS schedule.

In general I strongly recommend you get Adoptium or for AWS-specific interactions perhaps Corretto (but adoptium runs just fine on EC2 if you prefer this).

If you do that, this 'java licensing' thing is completely irrelevant to you.
That's backwards.

Yeah it seems like this communication is maybe more targeted towards non-tech businesses where they wouldn’t necessarily know if the solicitation or inquiry applies to them, since “Java” is and has been bundled with tons of desktop and server software for decades. A tech-focused company would be better-informed and possibly already using openJDK, possibly allowing then to safely ignore or respond with a polite “fuck off”.
This will imply that hydrogen will also be very cheap.

This will imply that electricity will be even cheaper.

Most of the practical schemes for breaking molecular bonds in order to release hydrogen uses electricity and lots of it.

Eventually some intelligent hydrogen fanboy will hit upon a bright idea --- let's forget all this hydrogen stuff and just use all the electricity we are generating directly --- cause it's easier, cheaper and more efficient.
AFAIU only Vega-C is grounded, Vega is still in operations with SSMS 16 scheduled for September?

Probably yes, depending on the license of OpenJDK, but if you want Oracle JRE, you have to pay
I'd guess the end user (product owner) of the software would interact with some sort of ChatGPT and describe what they want/need and we'd iterate from there. At the very least it would be a good support tool for initial scoping.

ChatGPT would also be useful for the developers to learn more about the domain (assuming no hallucinations) before the kickoff meeting. Let's say you're building some sort of accounting software for the banking sector. You could have a chat session that explains how business processes work in that area, what regulations apply etc. You'd also pick up the correct words/phrases that are used in that domain etc.
Are the participants passengers or crew? Crew, I'd expect to have full systems understanding of the sub, how it works under normal operation, and how to modify how it works under abnormal/emergency/degraded operation.

An early pilot said, “Aviation in itself is not inherently dangerous. But to an even greater degree than the sea, it is terribly unforgiving of any carelessness, incapacity or neglect.” Space and submarine operations are even less forgiving than sea surface or aviation. Almost all of my transition training into more advanced aircraft has been systems-related (like 90+% systems and 10-% operation).

I feel like the purchasers of these experiences were basically passengers. I don't expect the occupant of 2A on an airliner to understand anything more about the safety systems than where the exits are and how to put on a mask if it appears in front of them.
Exploding offers suck. Not much you could do about it aside from knowing the culture beforehand and having a number you're not willing to go below. Even the recruiter didn't give you any hints, that's on them.
Okay, when I was writing this, I knew I shouldn’t have included the latest and most controversial thing, because it’s not settled yet. The others mostly are (eg CIA involvement in Laos, Afghanistan, Ukraine, bombing of Yugoslavia, Libya, the Iraq war, WMDs, the use of “freedom” to sell these ridiculous notions to much if the US public, the use of “unprovoked” being systematically in a coordinated way inserted everywhere, etc etc.)

It’s bad debate technique to include ONE controversial thing among 20 settled things because you can be sure someone will seize on that ONE easiest-hanging fruit and others will think that taints the whole list. I should have left it out. And yet…

Let me add nuance. This one is different from all the others because whoever did it was clearly either going rogue / breaking chain of command, or that PLUS it was an accident and they went too far.

Neither Russian top military brass nor Ukraine’s would order the blowing up of Kahkovka’s dam, because whatever speculative temporary “advantage” that would confer to their side would be MASSIVELY outweighed by the long-term damage to their own side.

For Russia, it is the utter cutting off of FRESH DRINKING WATER to Crimea from Ukraine, something that Ukraine had cut off before and Russia worked hard to restore and did so as soon as they got control of the dam and reservoir. Russia considers Crimea its own terreitory and citizens, and wouldn’t undo all that effort by blowing up the dam. Not the higher-ups anyway.

Furthermore, Russian troops had to retreat as a result, and abandon their positions. It is not clear that Ukrainian troops were harmed more than Russian ones. Putin even publicly said that he wishes the explosion hadn’t happened since they WANTED the Ukrainians to attack via that direction and were prepared.

Speaking of other dams on the Dnieper, the one upstream of this one, controlled by Ukrainians, was opened to maximum capacity flow, almost as if to exacerbate the flow downstream, right around the same time as the explosion. The amount it was opened to (all 3 valves) was unprecedented in decades. Who did that and why? Whoever did, it wasn’t the Russians.

I will read about Yegor Guzenko, but I predict he’s likely going to describe a rogue group that went too far, or something, rather than Russia directly ordering this. And why do we believe what he says? Weeks after an event (eg Bucha massacre), hundreds of “intercepted conversations” appear, almost “too good” where the soldiers say exactly what is the most incriminating stufff to Russia itself. Maybe those are true, but how would we know? I prefer The Guardian’s analysis in Bucha, or the UN’s independent investigations, which should include people from Russia and Ukraine — of both the pipeline and the Kakhovka dam.

Again I would prefer to stay away from this speculative stuff and focus on the known facts and settled stuff, which is extremely egregious for USA (as they have done it far more than any other country). But since this is threaded, we can focus on exclusively this one weak point in my list, which I should have known better than to include among the others.
We should've agreed on that. The current state is very much bad for all involved. Implementing SaaS CRM #15324 from scratch 'on different and current tech', spending millions$ without any other reason than that you think you are better is not doing the world any good.

An entirely new generation of people became voting age and that generation is quite progressive on average. A second generation of fairly progressive people aged from unlikely voters to likely voters. And we had 20 years of people worth of deaths with many of those deaths concentrated in an elderly conservative generation. That has huge impacts on issues like gay marriage. Yes, some people did change their minds but not nearly as many as we like to think.
Your case sounds like where you'd use select()/select! to wait on multiple things? A lot of writing about async/await neglects to mention multiple potential events, but async/await's reason is really that case.

select! {
() = wait_for_tick() => println!("tock"),
v = woken_thing() => println!("woke with {v}"),
}
Hmm, this seems counter to the notion of GPL, IMO. The GPL allows you to redistribute the source. I don't think it allows companies like RedHat to impose restrictions like "here's the source, but this is the end of the road: you can't take it any further than this"... it would surprise me if RedHat's terms weren't themselves a GPL violation, if what you're saying is true.
Mastodon was absolutely doomed from the start due to the name alone.

The article does mention "one" of them went out, implying they had more than one.

As to why that was not sufficient to release the balast, that's another question.
Only in the sense that everyone isn’t competitive against SpaceX. They absolutely could have done better, but the role isn’t to produce the most price competitive launch, the role was securing Europe’s launch capability. If both could be done at the same time then that’s a win but it’s not the primary goal.

I believe you're conflating "big-C" Conservative with "little-c" conservative.

The Conservatives (aka Tories) are conservatives. The Labour party are also conservatives as much of the voting public in the uk is small-c conservative and also authoritarian.

There is a reason I put the word "magic" in scare quotes.

It's not even that. S-expressions are just a serialization of linked lists. The "magic" happens because the details of the serialization happen to make them particularly good for writing code.

> But I guess that one guy on the side street who was shaking his fist at people speeding past his house is happy now.

That’s me. My UK cul-de-sac street is a 20mph limit. It’s a thin street with cars parked on both sides with just enough room to drive down the middle. There are kids and pets.

People fly down the street at terrifying speeds, putting on seatbelts, fiddling with their phones and all sorts between two lines of parked cars.

My neighbour on one side uses my dipped kerb to mount the pavement at 15mph and drive along the pavement to park outside his own house. My other neighbour has a hedge, such that my son could be running up the drive on to the pavement, where we have taught him it is safe, and my other neighbour could be driving along the pavement and hit him without ever seeing him.

People just don’t think.
Twitter was a bird, like a messenger pigeon, not exactly a fresh reference.

Your numbers are off by a factor of 2. We are around 40% now and the growth is more like 4-5% per year. With that we could be at 90% adoption in a decade, and getting to >50% should be just couple of years; many major countries are already past that mark.
I’ve had a good experience with an anti-glare screen protector so far. And there’s also the possibility of swapping the screen later, as it’s only something like $100. Although changing the screen is a bit of work, I think.
Professionally, the company I'm at ditched ubuntu in our CI builds because of snaps.

The packaging is very limiting, and I don't want to have to fight against the system to get a version of software installed that works.

I personally used to run MicroK8s (snap based). I finally gave up about 6 months ago. Were snaps the root cause? Eh... no, the root cause was dqlite synchronization problems that I was tired of dealing with, but snaps made the whole process so much worse. They're hard to automate, they're hard to interact with using normal tooling. They just aren't part of the system in the same way, and while I understand there's value there (hell - I'm running containers and microk8s for a reason) there's also pain. K8s was an okish trade on that front: I felt a lot of pain and gained a lot of value.

Snaps seem to be falling into the worst possible spot: I'm feeling a lot of pain and the product is usually not any better at all (and sometimes much worse).

HA Microk8s with snaps and nvidia-container-toolkit (The GPU addon) just isn't all that stable (I would consistently get hard lockups on some hardware). That same hardware running Arch and k3s is chugging away beautifully.

So maybe it is an echo chamber - but the echoes I keep hearing are system admins saying this is making life harder and they don't understand the upside, and Canonical pushing forward anyways.

---

So maybe there's light at the end of the tunnel somewhere for snaps. Maybe the grand vision will eventually come and folks will be fine with it. But my suspicion is that Ubuntu is being replaced at most orgs before then.

Steam is throwing weight behind Arch (LOTS of new linux users coming in here). Alpine is a strong contender in containers. Nix is interesting.

Both Flatpak and AppImage seem to achieve the "easy user installs" part without all the pain of snaps, and they're neutral on whether I use them or not.

Basically - if snaps were so good (even if they're only good in some cases) I would expect a conversation about snaps similar to that of SystemD - Strong arguments on both sides, real advocacy from the community for the product, even if it's painful to adopt, or doesn't meet all user needs.

Instead snaps are just "meh" all around. There's a steady stream of folks leaving, and no real advocates outside of Canonical. At most - you have neutral folks like yourself who just don't mind snaps.

To me - that's a bad sign. I bailed. It wasn't worth betting my personal projects on. I've been pretty happy with the decision too.
