Speed. Most people are going to choose a fast binary download + automated integrity check over compiling from source, regardless of their reason for using F-Droid.

I misread IMDSD as IMDB and still thought yeah they might as well throw that in too at this point.

While I can't speak for these wrecks specifically, archeology as a field is chronically underfunded. They have to pick and choose their battles.

Hopefully the negative responses in that thread + the conversation here on HN might help them realize that totally removing Code access for Pro users isn't a good look.

And with no free trial period on top of that, nobody is going to want to pay $100+ just to check it out. I can't imagine the conversion rate of that test being positive.

It was originally codeveloped by Apple and Intel.

Though from Thunderbolt 3 onward Intel has been the sole developer.

Very cool! This reminds me of ARDI Executor [1] - a piece of (discontinued) commercial software first released in 1990 that took the same API-level reimplementation approach used here. And it did so jaw-droppingly fast considering that it was running on 90s PC hardware. As a little kid using it to play a few Mac games on my Windows PC, it was genuinely inspiring to me to see that this was possible at a time when I was first learning how to code. :) Great to see something with a more modern implementation doing this as well!

It was discontinued in 2005, but the developers subsequently open sourced it and put the code on GitHub a couple years later. [2]

Bonus: One of the engineers from ARDI, the startup that created Executor, was very briefly featured in Bob Cringely's 1996 documentary Triumph of the Nerds talking about the lifestyle of working at prototypical mid-90s Silicon Valley startup.

In light of this I propose "Doom's Law" as the ultimate expression of late stage capitalism:

- Society continues to produce more and more powerful devices.

- More and more of these devices begin running Doom.

- When this reaches the saturation point, society becomes Doom.

Minor nitpick, but I would say Phoenician is to Canaanite as Byzantine is to Roman. It gives a name to the local continuity and further development of the Canaanite culture in the northwestern coastal region of Canaan, i.e. Phoenicia, at a time when Canaanite culture to the south developed related but distinct branches of its own.

You can install a Chrome extension manually. The store is convenient but not required.

You don't have to eat the cake to sharpen your baking skills.

I'm fairly certain you misinterpreted that. He was complimenting the smooth process.

Please be safe to live in... then please, please, please build these in Boston.

I'm a full-stack engineer seeking a new adventure. Feel free to shoot me message!

Yes and no. They believe the peninsula where they may have found the city of Kane used to be a separate island. They think there used to be a channel that filled in over time, converting the island into a peninsula.

I would love to try the pre-bottled version, but unfortunately I'm allergic to soy. I wish they would give an option of the type of protein used since soy is a fairly common allergy.
