Maybe you could delete my account. I'd prefer that. I think maybe I have a tendency to argue with people and this just isn't the place for it. Best to remove the temptation.
If you aren't going to delete the account and comments could you change the username to something random then ban it? That would work.
This is academic thinking. The infections will occur because nothing can be done about them. Omicron is too transmissible to contain. Everyone understands that now. There is no 'gambling' here because there is no dice to throw. The die is cast by nature.
They create research that is used by politicians to justify them creating a policy they'd already decided to create for political reasons. They manufacture consent.
What did Chuck Colson want to do to the Brookings institution again?
Thanks for the context, I appreciate it. At the time I remember the concept of running PHP on Windows/IIS did have this air of 'hmmmmmmmmmmmno' associated with it.
In my experience it ran fine, but for obvious reasons when shipping software that might make or break their company I can understand Joel preferring the familiar territories of ASP/IIS/Win or LAMP.
I figure - at least for the US - that that's the inevitable conclusion. Not necessarily FB, perhaps a govt service that's created along the lines of twitter, simple and straightforward.
The internet is the de-facto public square, there has to be a public forum that's under the control of the public.
I just like straightforward linear conversations in which questions are asked and answered.
I don't like endless come-ons in which questions are responded to (not answered!) with more questions and a sentence fragment that seems designed as a push to move past the question.
Some very high percentage of mobile devices, when using mobile data, are on IPv6 and preferentially connect using IPv6. I think 80% of Meta traffic is IPv6.
Lots and lots and lots of people use IPv6.
I have to say though the BOFHesque attitude shown in this thread by a number of people has convinced me never to touch Alpine linux. I can already see exactly what sort of attitude towards users and input the developers encourage and that sort of ivory tower shit has absolutely zero appeal.
If you're on DSL, the DLink DM200 has an integrated adsl/vdsl modem that's supported by OpenWRT, and the platform is quite powerful. You'll need a second device for wifi though but that suits my use case.
If you want a dedicated OpenWRT device Mikrotik would be my suggestion.
So the 1st amendment's wrong. Fix it somehow. Landline telephone companies are obliged by their terms of licence to serve all customers in their coverage area (i.e they can't deny the KKK a landline.) There's precedent for forcing companies to provide a certain service. Just write a law. Find or invent a justification and write a law.
You can read that sentence to both confirm and oppose the writer being male, FYI. Both 'like me' and 'unlike me' can be implied. You need more data than that sentence.
This is all over the place. I've done this countless times when reinstalling laptops etc (because it saves redownloading 4GB worth of mailbox) and you just install thunderbird on the new machine, run it once, close it, make sure it closes properly then copy the Thunderbird directory from your appdata. Then you re-open it and it works.
Could have just shipped the customer a server, especially as Joel's article suggests that most of your on-prem customers went with dedicated servers for the software anyway.
Find it hard to imagine that a significant percentage of your customers were 100% linux/mac to the extent that they'd refuse any win boxes in their shop.
I was in IT at the time and catered to a number of 100% mac shops (mostly ad agencies/gfx design studios) and there were always one or two win boxes around, usually a couple for fileserver/backup and one for the sysadmin to do sysadmin things with.
>We couldn’t go back in time and decide to write it in a different language.
You had an intern write a program that rewrote it in a different language for you, time after time after time.
