Python is probably the language that popularized them, if not invented them. They’re saying the team doesn’t like using them.

My take is that other than C++, where it’s reasonable, forbidden language features are a smell for the team not having a healthy understanding of the language

I think some distros disable using RSA by default. Might need to use it explicitly.

I don’t know if it’s that cut and dry. If you study a Operative Systems class or buy a book about them, it’ll exclusively deal with the kernel.

Are reading what you write? It’s linux so it isn’t?

Yeah, they’re mostly bits of hardware that turn ttl/serial into a USB device. Then you can use minicom or dterm to connect to the host. Mostly used for embedded development, but also useful for debugging servers that are not connecting to the network without having to lug a keyboard and screen.

After they’re connected, if they speak vt110, your terminal emulator can display everything properly

The US customary units are officially defined on top of metric, and 1 fl oz is 29.5735295625 mL, but an oz is 28.349523125 g. I imagine this decision was just to fuck with people (since 1ml of water weighs 1g at sea level, at 4°)

tz offset is really not enough. You’d need to save the time zone id and/or offset, to have you library calculate deviations such as daylight savings.

Even that, that would break if the user moves and now what they setup is using their previous timezone.

Basically, I’m saying that storing the offset works most of the time, but not all of the time.

It depends. If something needs to happen in local time (like, always at the same time regardless of daylights savings for example) you should be storing times in local timezone

Under this definition, using mspaint is programming

Ctrl+break doesn’t do anything on my machine. Ctrl+c stops a process.

I actually don’t know how many programs do this, but several check that file permissions are correct or refuse to work. Sudo and ash are 2 of them. I could see /etc/shadow being readable and writable by everyone being a problem too, but I don’t know.

That doesn’t even mention the changes to webrequest. Here’s an intro: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/migrating/blocking-web-requests/

until June 24 also the adblocker devs have updated their products for sure.

If you understood the differences between manifest v2 and v3 you’d understand that it’s pretty much impossible to make an ad blocker with the same effectiveness in V3 as in V2.

So they will exist, just be worse.

The V3 version of ublock should really use a different name to make it clear it doesn’t have the same capabilities as in V2/Firefox. Maybe something like UBlock use-firefox-instead.

Firefox did it like 10 years ago. I think it’s still going around under a different name in very low tier smart phones.

Probably not starting a lot of new projects in them, but there’s loads of valuable software literally being the main income for companies in all of them.

Next, Angular, Django, RoR?

Find me where it says you can’t charge or that you have to distribute source code to anyone

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.html

As not a lawyer, I’m actually not sure that cancelling the subscription is allowed by the gpl, given that it established that there can be no additional (outside of the license) conditions to share the code. I’d like to see it discussed in court, but I’m not sure interested parties have enough lawyer money for it.

I don’t think it’s necessarily a good move but you’re wrong hon several places, like:

they are BOUND BY THE GPL to freely share and distribute that code.

No they aren’t. The GPL doesn’t mention anything about price, and they’re only forced to share source code with the people they distribute software to.

They got it for free, they have to pass it on for free

They have paid for plenty of oss code
