Package manager should be pinning exact versions and never updating anything unless my manifest changing. Ever.

Cooldown should be feature of dependabot/renovate/etc

Safe and socially acceptable: "war is bad and I wish it will end sooner". "We should be friends with Ukraine and/or West". "Putin was not right to start a war". "I want that Putin resigns and/or voted out"

Safe for regular person, but socially risky: "We should surrender and pay reparations" "This war is totally Putin'a fault" "Putin is corrupt dictator" "Zelensky is a good guy"

Could in theory lead to a fine and/or losing job, but mostly safe: "I support Navalny", donation to ACF or some kind of western-affiliated NGO.

Could lead to a fine and/or prison time, when it done in social media or on the square: "Slava Ukraine", Butcha fakes, Let's willingly donate to Ukraine war effort, etc

I worked at middle-sized company that instituted a pay cuts, cutting all bonuses and stopping raises. After year, company lost almost every person in tech managenent and most of team leaders, their clients actively executing forking rights and no one believes in company future now.

I once heard wise words from some CEO. In harsh times, clients do not want cheaper and worse services from us. They want less services. So we are moving out headcount down, while keeping pay and even execute raises for those who stay.

Intresting that this problem (IO-bound threads should have priority over CPU-bound threads) already solved at OS level (most OSes will give priority boost to thread that was unblocked because of end of IO operation in hope that thread will soon block with another operation).

No, we can provide proprietary scripts that install GPLed software (i.e. setup Linux machines), but can't provide proprietary scripts that install AGPL.

Dear telegram! Why you have something that resembles OAuth, but not OAuth? Please create OAuth compliant endpoint. Thank you

I'm a vendor of some packaged on-premise solution. We are using a Redis as a cache layer inside. Risk of being forced to GPL out our installer is unacceptable for us.

I also think that both docker-compose & k8s & helm are wrong layer of abstraction. I see a lot of people building a opinionated way to run containers and way for them to communicate with another, to request a DB or a redis.

I like to name some such attempts: - .NET Aspire - Avito Plato (home grown PaaS of ¨russian Amazon") - infrastructure layer of our ZIIoT (MES platform on top of k8s)

Maybe I’m bad at searching for these things, but these changes to C# seem to have gone completely under the radar in places where you read about memory safety and performance.

The reason is this changes are not aimed on average Joe developer writing C# microservices. This changes and whole Span/ref dialect of C# are aimed on Dr. Smartass developer writing C# high performance libraries. It's advance-level feature.

Yes, Russia army attacked electric infrastructure, that's common knowledge. No, there is no use of precision weapons to willingly attack apartment houses, that's definitely a lie.

There is a lot of cases of Ukrainian army to use indiscriminate and "dumb" weapons to attack civilian districts of Donetsk (and now, Belgorod) just to terrorize population.

Using cruise missiles to terrorise civilian population will be incredibly stupid move. Hits into houses are usually accidental. If you want to terrorise civilian population, it's so much cost effective to use cheaper unguided rockets from MLRS systems or artillery shells. You have this news in your echo chamber, haven't you?
