Cost is a big factor in country like India. Population is large and govt must give it free. I think these constraints are also being considered.

Yeah! this looks strange. Probably need to dig deeper on how the flu shots are administered and why.

Perhaps, I am in a minority then.

The only survey where - number of gnu/linux > number of macos users > number of windows users.

Will that be called /Windows subsystem for Android/?

This really nice work. Even the audios and videos are using the browser built-in standard features. Look at the /artifacts page.

Reaction of Twitter people on point #2 in notes?

Moreover, no one, I mean /no one/ in this world is 100% perfect. I respect RMS as I respect Nelson Mandela or Gandhi. Think of anyone else from the past.

RMS has done so much for the computing world. And I firmly believe that he isn't a pedophile. And he doesn't even support pedophilia. Just that he has uttered something, doesn't make him a criminal.

While reading this discussion, I was thinking exactly the same thing. Normally I use /testing/ distribution of Debian GNU/Linux. But with Guix, I can just install bare-minimum Debian /stable/ and work with Guix for the rest.

This way we'll also get security updates. Debian is committed to providing security updates for the /stable/ distribution. Not sure about /testing/ and /sid/.

Some work for theme creators now.

Only one dependency "posix_ipc >= 1.0.0".

That is true. Python has better ways to deal with concurrency. As I wrote elsewhere in comments, I started reading asyncio. But found that for a newbie this article is good to grasp basic concepts.

Thanks for sharing. Actually, I searched MELPA before posting my question. It is time to support this package to get included into MELPA/ELPA.

Actually, I started reading about async/await from asyncio package. But for a newbie the above article is much simpler to grasp concurrency and parallelism concepts. And the sample code makes it a lot easier.

Can I access the network from Emacs? I use ERC as of now.

Agree. In one group, I have to put title (summary) in one line and that's it. In Emacs, we have a title in the first line and then bulleted (*) summary for each file in the changeset. See http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/. I prefer the later. But that is not always possible.

Incorrect information. I am sitting in NOIDA and my home is in Delhi. Internet is perfectly working fine. Don't spread rumours at HN.

This is going to be a legal nightmare in near future.

Counterfeiting will be difficult. That's for sure.

It is not like that. C was supported before GCC project also but it was not of any use because it wasn't widely used. Either we need open source alternatives or there must be competition based on open standards.

I wish someone offers email2nntp for newsletters. I love reading with Gnus.

US-China trade war will further benefit India. But it looks like they are moving towards a settlement.

Yahoo Pipes, Friendfeed were all fun. The world was more open at that point of time.

Will rust be any faster? Like 'ripgrep'.

But why the government have to do it? Isn't it a profitable business in itself?

On the contrary, there is another school of thought which says that the people who started going to school late in life are much more resilient to difficult situations in life.

When I look at earlier generation (I am 77 born), I notice that they are happier than others in tough times. And the generation younger than me feels irritated when the elders ask them to take it easy or ask them to ignore some comments etc.

The academic competition is taking lives out of people.

This is a promotion of manifold itself. Put it under "Show HN".

I built a RPi-Distro using pi-gen a couple of months back. I still have to figure out how to enable wifi using systemd. There are lots of pieces here and there.

Earlier it was just one (config) file and one start/stop script.

Anyway it was consuming too much of battery (phone's as well as mine). So I switched to FF browser on iOS. Then after some months I stopped going to FB.

Now I have lots of productive hours.

FF also has multiple profiles feature. But nothing matches Containers. Containers are different. Containers keep only the identity data (sesssion, cookies etc.) separate. All other data is shared. Profiles are painful. History, Password Manager, Bookmarks all are accessible and shared across FF containers. This makes it really useful.
