With the current conservative government Germany has, the same that fucked up the country for 15 years kept the country “stable” for 15 years, it sounds like their promise for river internet. What’s German river penetration like nowadays? 5%? After 20 years of “investment”?
Lol. It’s more likely that the US will get a grip and Microsoft or even Apple can swoop in an sell their crap to politicians.
So it’s absolutely not happening within 20 years 🤣
Do you know how to use breakpoints? Put one on “Just right!” and then step through it.
Edit: I just ran the code and it exits properly. It’s probably your customized VS Code . Which command is it using to run your code?
What is this? It jumps in explaining features and details about other stuff, but doesn’t explain the basic goal. There are also no screenshots except of some table. It’s not clear how to use this thing.
So there are more than 9000 apps that take screenshots because somehow that’s in the permissions list that neither Apple nor Google check when they claim to provide security - especially Apple when they claim that locking you in is better for you.
There are news reports of people getting add before babies were born simply because of what people were buying. Sometimes the people didn’t know they were pregnant themselves! That’s how embedded they are in our lives and people go “well, nothing to hide, right?” and don’t even flinch. Imagine being sent to jail because an SD agency detected you were pregnant but aborted it and you live in an antiabortion state.
“Nothing to hide”
Very likely that the people involved in the deal were corrupt. It wouldn’t surprise anybody if they got a nice sum deposited into an offshore account, a free house, expensive art, or whatever else is used to hide corruption.
Unfortunately the opensource community is heavily disorganised. We don’t have a group to represent us, market opensource, push for its use in public office, fight for compensation for maintainers and developers, and so much more. A concerted effort could possibly accelerate adoption and make it possible for more people to earn a living from opensource, not just the lucky few who can do it in their free time and transition to a paid/funded position.
Thanks for the response. So there’s a bunch of stuff to do myself but also surprisingly enough stuff for an editor.
I’ll take a deeper look at it.
After reading this, I’m kinda curious how it compares to JetBrains. It’s becoming more and more VSCode like and I’m not a fan.
Does Kate support or have plugins for renaming symbols, presenting documentation, formatting files, showing code diagnostics beyond syntax errors (for example code smells or so), have AI integration (explain this, rewrite this, replace this with prompt output, …), specific framework integrations (reactjs, django, actix, …), and stuff like expanding macros in C/C++ and Rust?
As you said, it’s out of the box/bag. The thing I’ll push for is open sourcing all code. Being able to copy opensource code and hide it in proprietary code is to me the biggest problem. Were everything opensource, I doubt anybody would bat an eye. “You copied my code and put it out there publicly, free of charge? Good. Do it again”.
Personally, I license everything as restrictively as possible for companies and would love an enforcable opensource license that figures out how to make companies contribute back or pay for use of the code.
Not specially you, just a comment about the license: OP’s problem with attribution is minor. The major problem they have is that Microsoft took his time to get a personal intro to the project, forked it and didn’t contribute back. That’s what he’s unhappy about. That there was no attribution is barely important.
Yes, choosing MIT doesn’t require hem to contribute back and it should’ve been a restrictive opensource license, but it seems he really thought they asked for a call in order to join in on the development.
And already the purists are going “if I may interject for a moment” or screaming “reeeee”, as was expected. It’s like they can’t comprehend that the world has changed and that text written 25 years ago doesn’t stay correct, applicable, or right forever.
The pearl clutching gasp of “but this is against scripture” truly never gets old.
Do you have a link to that? There’s a blog entry “Earthly Switches to Open-source” From July 2023. Are they undoing that?
I’ve had relatives and friends share this, but IMO the biggest reason for sharing is probably because it speaks negatively about the US elite, not because people actually hear or understand the message. The anti-US sentiment is the vessel for the pro-privacy message and it’s the vessel that’s attractive. If the anti-US movement can keep it up, more privacy aware products available to the public might be the result.
Most nontechnical people aren’t going to give up their iPhones and shiny Macs unless shinier, non-US products show up. So let’s hope that the US elite keeps fucking up.
On the face of it, I appreciate that it looks funny, but the power dynamics are quite different. If I’m caught pirating, my ass could land in jail. If a company is caught pirating, it’s written off a business expense.
Would you find it as ridiculous if a slave whipped their owner? If the poor stole from the rich? If the weak took power from the powerful?
When will people start using Signal or Matrix for this? Signal supports public, encrypted chat rooms and so does Matrix.
Composition over inheritance has become a meme that people repeat without understanding. Both have their uses, but if composition is all you use, then you’re using a hammer on everything. There is no silver bullet in life and most undeniably not in programming.
Also, electron has a reason for existing. If it didn’t have a use, it wouldn’t have the number of users it has. You can’t tell me in all seriousness that Qt, Gtk, Swing, Tkinter is easier to use than electron for the common developer.
Python is case insensitive? Or do mean that it’s not? The phrasing is a little confusing.
