One aspect that is often overlooked is a room acoustics - especially reverb time. Have you ever felt cosy in a large church?

Or, if you have ever been to a wedding and wondered why everybody started talking louder and louder and it's hard to understand, a room with too large reverb time is a very probable causes. This is very draining mentally.

The same goes for living spaces, especially since newer homes tend to use lots of smooth surfaces like glass, tiles and concrete, which increase reverb time a lot.

Book shelves, curtains and furniture will increase a room's diffusiveness and reduce reverb time, making rooms feel so much better.

Man, I just realized it's been 20 years for me. I vaguely remember sometime in 2006 that Windows Vista was inevitable and decided to switch to linux.

I don't care about fussing around and just need a useful machine for work and fun. Linux is far from perfect for me but the amount of crap windows or macos throw at me when I have to use them is almost comical.

Thank you! That's exactly what I wanted to hear :)

Has anyone real-life experience with these tools?

Posts like this are the reason why the internet and software development felt magic to me as teenager.

This stuff still is magic to me. Wonderful work!

Not trying to be rude, but in a technology you're not familiar with you might not be able to know what good code is, and even less so if it's maintainable.

Finding and fixing that subtle, hard to reproduce bug that could kill your business after 3 years.

You're missing Signal which has gained a lot of traction in the last years.

Apart from that it's hard to take statements from such an ignorant US centristic point of view about what europe is/has/has not seriously.

Let's see how things will play out for europe and how our souvereignty efforts will impact the US economy.

Owning the issue is one thing, but being able to fix issues with a reasonable amount of resources is another.

To me code created like this smells like technical debt. When bugs appear after 6 months in production - as they do, if you didn't fully understand the code when developing it, how much time, energy and money will it cost to fix the problem later on?

More often than I like I had to deal with code where it felt like the developer did'nt actually understand what they were writing. Sometimes I was this developer and it always creates issues.

I absolutely love the progress that was made in the several last years! The number of VST/audio plugins available on linux has grown from being quite a problem to having an actual ecosystem!

The jetbrains IDEs hav some very useful features falling into this category, these come to my mind immediately:

- Making variables, functions,... grey if they're not used - Temporarily coloring variables + their usages when the cursor is on one - Showing wiggled red underlines for syntax errors

Especially the unused code feature is wonderful.

Why once successful?

But more importantly, tell me more about the scandals, I love good gossip :)

Just in case people don't realize, the author is Dries Buytaert who created drupal.

Just as we aren't far from actually usable and safe self driving cars since 10+ years.

This is not a valid argument.

In your opinion, what's the problem with the port concept of the frame.work?

Which unfortunately is not a solution since harsher punishments have shown to not prevent crime.
