Is there a table of implemented RFCs? Something similar to http://caniuse.com where we can see what HTML/JS/CSS standards and features are implemented? If it exists, I can't seem to find it. Closest thing seems to be "experimental features" page but its not quite detailed enough.

Sounds like you are describing markdown.

You could ask the submitter to show a quick video recording of the new feature being used. Or if its a bugfix, show the failure scenario and then the fixed non-buggy scenario. If they can't be bothered to show a basic before/after demo of whatever they are working on, then you probably don't want to work with them and accept their code changes anyway.

I recently found a super cool article[1] which also gives a good overview of how a debugger works.

Are we sure this is correct? The table shows ESP32-C5 supports CANFD but I cant find any info on CAN-FD peripheral, drivers, etc.

First time I heard of Atlas OS. How is it different from Windows LTSC?

Those moderators aren't doing their work for free, so why should anyone else?

Because they actively volunteer to do so.

Mining boom prices without the mining boom.

Can you provide some books or links if so that I can read up on these misconceptions?

Can you expand on your first trick? What is the problem being solved and what is a practical use case? I'm not sure I follow.

There is always going to be some negative externality to anything humans do. No free lunch in any endeavor. You can find new uses for waste products or reprocess it to something less harmful.

The "water crisis" in California is an entirely political problem.

Have you seen how hard it is to pass a contentious law these days?

So what? Not the SC's problem.

Most people can agree about its merits but it's naive to act as if special interests haven't manufactured the contention and captured the regulatory and legislative processes.

So if special interests have captured the regulatory body, how is letting them keep (or gain) their unelected power any better?

We don't have the luxury of proceduralism any more.

I can use the same argument about any topic we disagree about. Do you not see the problem with this line of thinking?

What is your concrete solution? Create a fine for not-voting in local elections and local initiatives?

You literally just described most of Wall Street and most of the finance industry too.

Looks like you need to look Shenanigans done by Musk, Gates etc

You should check out the shenanigans that the US government gets away with. Whatever bad things Musk, Gates and crew is small fry compared to the government.

Anyone even remotely concerned about privacy or constitutional rights

There goes 95% of America.

Evening with batteries should have user replaceable batteries

There should be a law for this. Even for cellphones. When corporations market themselves as environmentally conscious, but don't allow the replacement of common wear items in their gadgets and products, then that's how you know they are full of shit.

Just because you don't think he was polite to some arbitrary standard does not make him wrong.

If people are this sensitive to "tone" and "tact" about technical matters, then we (as a community I guess) have much deeper issues then the technical matters themselves.

rants about how stupid everyone else is.

His favorite target seems to be...drumroll please...large corporation software teams.

I missed the part where he is wrong.

How was Casey wrong?

I always found the following expression amusing:

"Universities are actually hedge funds that happen to have a school attached to them".

Another idea: For every repeated infraction of the same type, the fine doubles or triples.

Why not make it hard to create a Google account? Why is that not on the list of potential solutions? If you have bad actors that can make hundreds or thousands of bogus accounts in an automated way, it means the account creation process is too easy. Any legit user who actually wants a Google account already has one and those who don't but actually need one will jump through the necessary hoops. Google isn't a startup anymore.

This is actually the real solution IMO. Instead of playing whack-a-mole with endless stream of various abuses across all the bad business practices they do, these giants should not be able to exist in their current size and scope.

The fact Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Disney, Verizon, and others [1], etc are even allowed to exist in their current forms is absolutely bonkers to me. The outsized roles and influence they have on the economy and their individual markets just highlights that the government is incompetent or willfully corrupt.

[1]: Just a random selection of giants I can think of in a split second. But there are tons of other companies that dominate other less-sexy markets that should absolutely broken up.

I agree with OP, though - Its getting ridiculous and its not just websites. For example, my employer requires me to enter 2FA code every time I log into windows.

Windows LTSC does not include the OneDrive garbage. I highly recommend checking it out.

Don't give them ideas!

Eastern countries are inching closer to NATO

You got this exactly backwards. Countries don't move, but NATO membership does. NATO has been expanding eastwards and Russia has been consistently & explicitly clear that is unacceptable.

Why not? The U.S has more than three states and its not like the they have a monopoly on talent.

But I agree, at some threshold it becomes an untenable position.

Are you going to address his point?
