Agreed, and we use Markdown where we can. But inevitably some product manager comes along and demands tables inside tables or embedded reuse of content... and it's back to DITA.

OxygenXML makes the OT much more manageable. I haven't had to touch an OT XSL transform in a few years now. Worth every penny.

Professional tech writer here: We use GitHub and a tool called OxygenXML to write docs-as-code in an XML DTD called "DITA". It's a hefty IBM invention from the early aughts, but it covers every use case I've thrown at it, from small documentation sets to multi-thousand-page monsters. Supports PDF, HTML, Word, and many other output types.

> The problem is, there are very few tutorials showing you the current best practices.

As someone looking to expand from simple Python scripts to serious Python projects, this is my primary issue. Do you have any recommendations?

Given how regularly Western Bitcoin exchanges are hacked, I'm not convinced anyone has the knowledge to securely manage a Bitcoin attack.

Give it time. Once systemd runs out of Unix utilities to consume, it will inevitably turn on WinInit.exe and the Service Control Manager.

Original size: A mere 4.3 GB.

> Now, looking at a device like this, I automatically compare it to something like a tractor or plow. It demands constant connectivity to Google HQ... it's full of secret code... it requires, for its basic paradigm, a private company's acquisition of staggering amounts of surveillance... and so on.

As someone who used to write code for snowplows, they're also becoming quite centralized. Location, plow settings, salt per mile/km usage and other values are tracked in real time from the municipal office. Municipalities are increasingly strapped for cash, so performing real-time data analysis on their services can save them quite a bit of money in the long run.

Those responsible for auditing the auditors who have just been audited, have been audited.

As is standard for a Phoronix.com "article".

As long as the people submitting those pull requests understood the ramifications of contributing code gratis to a proprietary platform, there's nothing sad about it.

Agreed, it's not as deep as SC4. Colossal Order has a lot of plans for DLC, and in the meantime there are mods and assets all over the Steam Workshop. It's enough to tide me over until they reveal their next expansion. :)

If only the US had a STV system where I could satisfy both my idealism and my pragmatism, in order.

Please don't post LWN subscriber-only content until it's released to the public. I value LWN and would like to see its subscriber numbers increase, not have its content poached by content aggregators.
