This was my memory as well. Lion was the first version of OS X that was usable as a daily driver.

I don't think they offer anything unique. Forgejo[1] offers a similar platform.

FWIW, the article quotes people close to the researchers saying that the departure wasn't their choice.
> could things be better if we had an explicitly designed interoperability interface?
Yes, we could define a language-agnostic binary interoperability standard with it's own interface definition language, or IDL. Maybe call it something neutral like the component object model, or just COM[1]. :)

Most of those companies make huge margins by suckering large organizations into outrageous contracts. I don't see how AI moves the needle on this one way or the other.

I'd be curious to know if there was any pattern as to which users were targeted, but the post doesn't go into any further detail except to say it was likely a Chinese state-sponsored group.

The docs list this caveat:
> Note that previous stable versions will not be suggested. The package will be completely ignored if its latest published version is within the cooldown period.
Seems like a big drawback to this approach.
Doesn't sound very profitable:
>Over the last two years, the state transportation agency has spent more than $62,000 on repairs related to guardrail theft in the region.
If the full cost of replacement is ~$31k/yr, the scrap value of the stolen guardrails is surely far less. Seems like there wouldn't be enough for even a single thief to make a living.
Crazy that 27 C is deadly. I imagine most of Australia is hotter than that during any given summer.

Ironic that the “about the author” section at the bottom names Monty Python as the origin of BDFL, a claim which is contradicted by the article.

Aerospace programs can have extremely long timelines in the private sector, too. Variants of the Boeing 737 have been produced since 1966. While the recent MAX versions were flawed and Boeing has some real quality issues, you can still get service parts for the original airframe.
Seems like victory through attrition. It might be the only modern fighter produced for export in the Western world.

It's about looking at supply vs demand. Electrical devices are often labeled by the minimum voltage they require to operate. 110 V is commonly used because the device can operate reliably on a 120 V distribution system.
