CodeWriter23··on WordPress retaliation impacts community
@WPEngine - fork Wordpress, rebrand yourself and the code. Setup a plugin / update hub like Wordpress.org and provide a pathway for your customers and devs to migrate. I recognize this is non-trivial. Ending an abusive relationship usually is.

> Wordpress has generally been the stable, boring, slow-moving project

80% annual codebase churn (according to Theo) says otherwise

When Amazon decides to cut you off, you’ll know. Example: bought Albums on iTunes over a decade ago. Can’t re-download. Not even for a nominal bandwidth fee.

> It would be great if the SQLite team published an official npm package bundling the WASM version, could be a neat distribution mechanism for them.

You may benefit from perusing the FAQ on that page.

IMO this situation is what the GPL was created for.

You're out here on HN acting completely unfamiliar with the idea of configuring to limit resource consumption?

Sable was on the hook for costs after losing. I imagine this settlement was a fraction of what they owed. If there is truly justice in this world, Sable principals will have to go out of pocket for tax liabilities and costs associated with shutting it down.

Can someone please tell me what attributes make a given file format more suitable for long term storage over another?

CodeWriter23··on Disable Sequoia's monthly screen recording permission prompt
> I want to know what I missed when removing/disabling things that open at logins,

All the permission grants are summarized in system preferences. Much more elegant to go do your own audit than have to respond to nag screens.

The nag screens are an inferior Windows security feature (think UAC) no doubt manifested as a result of The Bozo Explosion which Jobs managed to fend off for about a decade or so.

CodeWriter23··on Amazon employees: 'I'd rather go back to school than work in an office again'
The afore-alluded to severance packages and unemployment insurance increases. Those insisting on WFH are apparently going to help mitigate those costs.

I think they’re gonna be just fine outsourcing it overseas for half the price.
CodeWriter23··on Amazon employees: 'I'd rather go back to school than work in an office again'
I’m implying that is Jassy’s thought process.

If one cannot utilize more speech to counter criticism, and instead requires censorship to do so, the time to examine one’s actions has arrived.

What does “caught colluding” mean? If it is some of Trudeau’s stooges said so, I would not believe it for a second.
CodeWriter23··on Oregon law rolling back drug decriminalization set to take effect
My eyecrometers measured dozens of people arrive in the rooms, state they avoided jail under prop 36, then stayed clean for more than a couple of years. That was just my observation attending 2-4 meeting weekly in a region with over 1000 weekly meetings. Wasn’t the same for everyone on that program of course. During that time we were starting new meetings to accommodate new people. We aren’t growing at the same rate any more.

Oregon: ok we’ve killed enough degenerates, time for more prisoners.

I’ve traveled out of CA 6 times since 2021. This is a California checkpoint:

Slow down for the inspection point. Approach the officers. Mostly they just waved me through without checking anything except maybe my license plate with a smart camera. Once they asked me if I had any fruit or agricultural products. One time I answered yes and handed over some apples and said “thank you” and was waved through.

It is nothing at all like a “border”.

I agree with the principle of what you’re saying, do drugs but only if you can contain yourself away from society. The problem with that idea is it’s only a matter of when the dope fiend sells their acreage for more supply.

You sound exactly like a drug addict rationalizing their using. After 28 years in recovery, I’ve heard probably every single variation on that theme.

Carrot: treatment

Stick: jail

Was fairly successful in CA while Prop 36 was in effect.
