This is the reason I love Hckrnews.

I miss the times when someone else made recommendations for you. Now I’m stuck with the same content, which I like( don’t get me wrong), but I’m pretty sure our view of music and movies is much narrower nowadays, when we’re no longer "forced" to experience different content.

We started a side project for ourselves and our agency clients, and recently made it public. It's a selfhosted chat, similar to WhatsApp or Signal. The app connects to your own server, so your data isn't stored in the cloud. It's still in alpha, but we're already having a lot of fun with it. After a decade of mostly building things for clients, it feels great to work on our own product. The business side isn't the main point for us, but we still end up talking about it for hours every day and enjoying the process again.

With continuing the same repo, name, and reputation built on LGPL code.. you can’t keep the goodwill and drop the contract that created it :-)

The U.S. CDC abruptly halted all collaboration with the WHO, impacting efforts to combat global health threats, including Marburg virus, mpox, and bird flu, per a leaked memo.

This may be true for the US, but the whole argument falls apart as soon as you remember the world is wider. Eg in Europe are suppressors often allowed with a special permit only = which, in my country, basically means army use only.
There are plenty reasons why.

Yes, Electron has a huge amount of problems (bundle size, speed, feeling, native APIs..) but all are solvable.
With a right approach, some Webassembly improvements and Webkit iterations all could vanish.
On the end of the day, Slack and Visual Code Studio are great apps from the user perspective while features, design and business model play much important roles in choosing the software compared to the underline tech stack.

Seven years ago I needed time for finishing a school project and wanted to look busy at work. The packages prints random messages to terminal, so you look like you are are in middle of some deployment job or npm install.
Still works as far as I know.

Also, I guess, it's needless to say, most of people don't have Docker already installed (unless your target audience is a dev-ops community). So it's not just "docker run".

I asked Kangjie Lu to explain the original complain. Here is his reply from Wednesday:

Thanks for sharing.
The statements in the link are wrong. I will make some clarifications.
1. We have never intentionally introduced any bugs in Linux. 2. The project that investigated the issues with OSS patching process was done in November 2020. We did get an IRB letter for the research. The purpose of the research is to improve the security of the OSS patching process. 3. One of my students is working on a different project which has nothing to do with the project mentioned in 2. The student aims to fix problems in Linux instead of introducing problems.
If you are interested in the project mentioned in 2, please find more details here: https://www-users.cs.umn.edu/~kjlu/papers/clarifications-hc....
I hope these clarify the misunderstandings.
