It most certainly is if support is focused on the wrong packages and features because they don't have the data to make informed decisions.

Third-world country edge-cases. Murder is still murder. The preponderance of donations in first-world countries saves lives, but is so rarely done despite the pressing demand. When you or family member needs a life-saving transplant, which system would you want?

Distros shouldn't waste time and effort on supporting and packaging language-specific, high-churn code packages except in very limited circumstances. Let the language specific-tools do those. Upstream is best, local fragmentation is wasteful.

False dichotomy fallacy. Linux distributions need to engineer for side-by-side installation of multiple versions and not get tied up to those common locations. nix is just one example as an interesting idea, while Homebrew and stow are better ideas.

More "innovations" which "justify" their own existence with novelty, but eliminate useful properties, backward compatibility, interoperability and standards with blissful ignorance. Standardization is a Good Thing(TM)... many formats creates a confusing dependency hell across multiple systems. Deb/apt works well. This will be deprecated in 6 months after a major security incident. Canonical is mismanaged and capricious, and this is just another in a long line of examples.

Those three (3) Hillary speeches must be absolute mana from heaven because her standard contract includes a client-paid stenographer, in addition to the $200k/ea.

Only fools would give these access-buying, crooks a dime... unless they wish to continue subverting freedom with this plutopsephocracy.

Some folks just haven't heard of stealth mode and formation.

It's hard to call something BS when they're not yet ready or publicly-launched.

PS: Gawker is bankrupt, content quality on Gizmodo is also suffering terribly.

Please leave it like countries with good organ donation opt-out policies.

Speaking of which, become an organ donor if you live in an opt-in country.

Opt-in, like optional security, rarely gets used.

Tinder + "Periscope" + live chat + booze = ROTFLMFAO

Yup. In undergrad lower-division courses, we were explicitly informed of this and tradeoffs of proprietary toolchain features. And, most lectures / graders / readers followed through. They had a custom hand-in system on the student-side and then their own scripts to run batches of student builds wherever they chose. Some courses wanted Makefiles, others wanted things like "build.sh" and "run.sh".

BTW: The uni also claimed (unverified, could be an empty threat) a multi-institution (Berkeley, Stanford, MIT, etc.), code plagiarism detection system covering two decades of coursework. (Maybe MOSS.)

That's unlikely because he would obviously have security (costing a $2-3k USD for decent-sized detail).

A chartered flight (light or mid-sized jet) would be around $30k USD.

There's direct Aeroflot flights between Moscow and Oslo (SVO - OSL).

US fighters and/or ships could _arguably_ intercept a civilian aircraft in international waters and force landing in another country.
