What makes me sad is that someone spent a huge amount of time making something, working on something, supporting something. If you don't like that something, then use something else or write your own thing. I don't get how there is some responsibility of maintainers to turn a passion project into anything other than what they want?! Fork.
How was attending this University? I recently moved family abroad from USA. Hoping my daughter may have interest in attending here for computer science. I am just blown away by the cost of US Universities. Not sure what you get out of USA schools anymore compared to some European Universities?
1. Uploading my Signature in Preview and being able to sign and edit PDF documents on any of my Apple Devices.
2. Screen rendering quality, on Mac everything seems to be sharper and more crisp than Linux on the same device.
3. Keynote. I so want a cross-platform replacement that is nearly as good.
4. iMessage integration with phone. I can send sms/iMessages from my Mac.
But I am planning to switch anyways. As all these companies move to a "service model", I feel like I am only leasing my software, and tools that make the hardware work. Furthermore, it feels impossible to get under the hood anymore.
Would love any advice or recommendations for the above.
Not OP but work @Helium. All the hardware designed will be open sourced. The end node devices can run on LoRa modules with custom (open source) firmware and secure crypto-processor (https://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/en/ATECC608A).
I thought Mozilla was pro-privacy with all the features they have added to the browser. Have I been missing something? I recently came back to Firefox for their stance on privacy.
I wonder if languages like Rust would be helpful in areas like this? Especially considering that the strictness of the compiler might allow more "green" developers opportunity to contribute.
I am not sure you can not use `unsafe` in an embedded type of project. `unsafe` isn't necessarily bad, but when used at least makes it very clear where extra attention should be paid.
