Not everyone is a supporter of capitalism unconditionally and they did great for more than two decades.

I agree with what you are saying, but I'm not sure how much of if applies to JetBrains. They were on the beneficiary side of the same system that flipped their world around for the longest time. I don't feel that bad for them.

Sure, I'd lean more anarchist than anything else on the political spectrum, what exactly am I supposed to be upset/sad about here? Yes, they did great for two decades, so what? So did Blockbuster or Radioshack, but eventually the tides turn and the world changes, this is essentially what life is and always been.

Because a lot of people enjoy the process. Why do you think people so wood working as hobby or the whole demo scene?


Most payment methods in the world don't support separate authorization and capture.


i dont know about the world, by authorize.net and Stripe, which work globally and work with global credit cards, they do support separate authorize and separate capture, which seems to be part of PCI standard

You'll quickly realize PCI mainly applies to the credit card industry and not to something like Europe's psd2 and sepa instant.


What's bad about it and what's a better one?


AFAIK pi's approach is to be quite minimal and allow extensions for customization, making it a more flexible solution, but you need to do work to make it fit your use case. OP mentions one extension, but perhaps it'd have benefited from more.

Another choice would be opencode which has more functionality and is a more heavyweight option out of the box.


How is this related to kubernetes?


Spam bots.


Why would you use the horrible GHA cache and not a much more efficient registry based cache?


Registry cache...

It's yet one more incomprehensible Buildkit decision. The original Docker builder had a very simple cache system: it computed the layer hash and then checked the registry for its presence. Simple content-addressable caching.

Buildkit can NOT do this. Instead, it uses a single image as a dumping ground for the caches. If you have two builders using the same image, they'll step on each other's toes. GHA at least side-steps this.

But I tried the registry cache, and it didn't improve anything. So far, I was not able to get caching to work with multi-stage builds at all. There are open issues for that, dating back to 2020.


It does on Android



Yep and have to pay for public IPs, which can become quite costly on it's own. Can't wait for v6 to be here.


An IP costs $50, or $0.50 per month if leasing.


>instead require the user to manually go into settings to turn them on, but if they do then it's still possible

They clearly addressed this option in the post, under sufficient social engineering pressure these settings will easily be circumvented. You'd need at least a 24h timeout or similar to mitigate the social pressure.

"Under sufficient social engineering pressure" is the thing that proves too much. A 24h timeout can't withstand that either. Nor can the ability for the user to use their phone to send money, or access their car or home, or read their private documents, or post to their social media account. What if someone convinces them to do any of those things? The only way to stop it is for the phone to never let them do it.

By the time you're done the phone is a brick that can't do anything useful. At some point you have to admit that adults are responsible for the choices they make.


>By the time you're done the phone is a brick that can't do anything useful. At some point you have to admit that adults are responsible for the choices they make.

Absolutely this! It's just nanny state all over again.


This is somehow even worse. It's strictly enforced with no regard for context, you don't have the constitutional rights you have against the government and you can't vote them out.

Markets are supposed to be better because you can switch to a competitor but that only applies when there is actually competition. Two companies both doing the same thing is not a competitive market.

This can already be done with LE audio, support is coming slowly.


I can't believe in that blog they use a simulated video. How hard is it Microsoft to have literally someone talking in a mic connected to two different laptops seriously.


Can a bluetooth mic connect wideband to one laptop and normal to another at the same time? Regardless, the simulation is very accurate IME. It is, after all, all digital anyways.


It isn’t.

It’s that when you have legal agreements with guilds and unions, even produced promotional material can be considered a production requiring minimum staff (I.e. makeup, camera technician, etc.) On productions, any person wearing multiple hats is tightly controlled.

A cartoon I watched growing up ran into this when they needed to insert live action, so they deliberately recorded at 1 FPS for that episode to make it ineligible for budget reasons (https://phineasandferb.fandom.com/wiki/Tri-Stone_Area).

If you’re ever wondering why a company can’t do something simple and obvious, it’s probably due to a legal agreement.


Weird tangent here. Nobody expects software engineers to participate in a promotional video for their product.


Weird response here. Everyone expects at least some level of marketing for their software product to perform financially.


That's a pretty weird response indeed. Swe are not part of the marketing department.
