How many of these additional proprietary drivers are needed on cloud servers, which are based on popular hardware configurations?

What are the numbers of people still installing servers on the real hardware and needing these proprietary drivers?

Btw, one can switch it off for Go programs not only with env variable, but also in go.mod:

    godebug multipathtcp=0

That's cool

This particular page (and other pages at altasum.net) is a CPU hog.

It usually means: suspicious activity or poor taste or disregard for web standards, or a combination of these.

There is a plenty of information on that CVE from other places.

You seem to be asking question "why people use hacks in C instead of coding in other languages which are more C++ like". Then you describe what is to be C++ like. Well, maybe the issue is that certain people precisely want to avoid the features you just described. Have you considered that?

It was updated at least 5 minutes after I noticed the outage first. Guess it's typical organisation lag

You don't see a push to use ai unconditionally and without verification to prove how much it's useful.

If the problem are human behaviours around ai, that is: eagerness to see the results (both military and Palantir), greediness to make money (Palantir), then the ai becomes the root of the problem.

Same corporate-greedy shit as everywhere but harder, because it's dealing with suffering and death.

Not very much following the forums, but the pace they are producing things is fine. What is "basic usability thing" for you, might be something unimportant for the rest. How the team sets the priorities might be just fine for a lot of users..

Ditto

But what about M$ owning Github and doing the same with its content? Github even did not deny scanning private repositories. (Gitlab denied the same when asked). So...

Raygum appears to be refreshingly nice place! Thanks

You apparently have no intuition on what the intuition is

What is the complaint in the article really about?

People write code using the platform X because they like it. It doesn't make sense to try to stop this

Teaching, yes: one should stand for what's important and there might be costs, one should do that despite the costs. Life is not only about gaining some short-term things.

Btw, I heard Matz&co had taken over rubygems.org, right?

Disagree. It's just admitting that the company can and will be cynical when it comes to the conflict of interests between them and the employee.

Making friends at the workplace is fine until there is such conflict, then where will they stand? If they will turn they back on you (and most of them will), then how much is such relation worth in the first place?

Well said, esp. the last paragraph about the Microsoft strategy.

Cool!

Btw, can the sequence :? be called "reverse Elvis" ?

Making decisions based on distinguishing A from B is a legit thing to do. Complaining that it's "telling what's right and wrong" is a strawman argument IMO. It's about choices: they made a choice and many users are/will be joufully making the compatible choice.

Yes but for the purpose of mentioned ISO 8601, the start of the week is assumed to be Monday.

I discovered just this week that the numbering of weeks within the year is different between US and Europe, thus, cal -w can show different numbers for some years depending on the locale. Outlook can probably also show different things depending on the system settings.

Europe uses the algo according to the ISO 8601 standard, where the week no.1 is the one with January 1st occuring between Monday and Thursday, inclusive. If the 1st happens on Friday or later within a week, it's considered a week no.52 or 53 of the previous year.

US does not use this scheme and [EDITED] I am not sure what method is applied there.

Some companies use week numbers in business talks, planning and scheduling, so be aware who is speaking about which weeks!

Ahh, this little gem ported to Linux, great! That opens much more possibilities to play with it, thanks

No worries. My impression was, the premise of your articles was not (at least not initially) a compiler for a fullest Ruby with all of its intricacies, but rather showing a great technique how to tackle a problem. For me and few of my pals it was an inspiring eye-opener. We were coming from the 8bit era and had our hands dirty in assembly before, yet your approach showed we can do a lot of low-level stuff in a modern Unix setup.

Kudos for your work - and I guess you've had a lot of fun as well

I just connected the dots. You're the guy who constructed a direct Ruby-to-assembly compiler some time ago, right?

The story remotely reminds me about this gold:

What is this: does not ring, and does not fit in the ass..? Soviet device for ringing in the ass.

Infinitely more funny if you lived on the east side of the iron curtain.

Would be a good advice without this need of comparing to others

Nice to see a fellow P-N'er. This gentleman knows his craft. Good luck!

Oxymoron alert!
