Yes, but that doesn't mean I won't react with the same hostility that I recieve. It contradicts common sense one user will be burdened by hostility, and when they lash back out, the accosters will show it as proof of something. In another aspect, most people I have met in real life are cowards who don't dare speak out of turn. Of course, I have never had this issue in real life or otherwise, and I take personal joy in the wisdom I raise before the invalids, even though they will never appreciate or understand it.

I don't care for them either. What am I supposed to hear some famous names and swoon?

Nothing. They wrote fiction.

That's a different situation. Those urls weren't meant for public use, and provided private information on user devices.

Furthermore, on reading the wikipedia page, his conviction was vacated.

> On April 11, 2014, the Third Circuit issued an opinion vacating Auernheimer's conviction, on the basis that the New Jersey venue was improper,[60] since neither Auernheimer, his co-conspirators, nor AT&T's servers were in New Jersey at the time of the data breach.

> While the judges did not address the substantive question on the legality of the site access, they were skeptical of the original conviction, observing that no circumvention of passwords had occurred and that only publicly accessible information was obtained

Which could be removed with a simple filter. em dashes require at least a little bit of code to replace with their correct grammar equivalents.

Suddenly I see all these people come out of the woodworks talking about "em dashes". Those things are terrible; They look awful and destroy coherency of writing. No wonder LLM's use them.

> for an oil change, I can do it much cheaper myself

Really? I mean oil changes are pretty cheap. You can get an oil change at walmart for like 40 bucks.

It seems to me like the inherent trust in open source software is a big problem. Reliance on software maintained by strangers, sometimes just one individual, and not reading/understanding the code before running it.

> licensing your project GPL or the like usually means relegating it to obscurity

Subjective. Sure if you are talking about percent of market share, but it's a huge market, you don't need to capture even 1% of users to have a viable business.

The vast majority of the GNU ecosystem is GPL. Bash, git, Apache, Gimp, Blender, Libreoffice.

There are also a lot of projects that are dual licensed, allowing commercial software to be charged a fee and non-commercial software to use for free with GPL.

I would like to see more calendar scheluding tools utilize CalDav.

I have no idea about the grant process, but could they implement system in which allowing reputable scientists and researchers vote on grants in their area of expertise?

https://www.vimgolf.com/ is also cool, but I find that it doesn't really help with muscle memory as much as learning cool tricks.

It seems like the pay isn't that bad, the median being $50,730 per year in 2024 [1].

I wonder why this field is so understaffed. The obvious thing that pops into my mind is the stress and work/life balance of the job.

I don't understand the hate towards C++. Many of the aspects criticized for are non-issues in modern C++. I am not to knowledgable about Rust, but what reason is there to use Rust? Memory safety isn't much of a problem in C++ anymore with smart pointers, std::move. Implicit typing exists in C++ with std::auto. Functional programming with lambda, std::functional, std::map, etc. C++ does everything I have wanted it to do, has a huge ecosystem of libraries, and great tools.

Agree, but if you believe that something is evil you are obligated to fight, whether loss is imminent or not.
