I believe he was comparing it to a similar broadband grant in a comidic fashion

Linus Torvalds Takes On A Performance Patch: "I Relax By Playing With Inline Assembly"
Reply in thread
That's not being pretentious, that's being blunt. I personally as a dev, appreciate that.
If you think the code can be improved you should say that, and exactly why that's the case. When you're mistaken you should be able to take the criticism.
Your mission as a dev is to write the ideal code, and being overly polite can stand in the way of that.

The Current Challenges With Using Linux On Airplanes

ELISA (Enabling Linux in Safety Applications) Project announced that Boeing has joined as a Premier member, marking its commitment to Linux and its effective use in safety critical applications. Hosted by the Linux Foundation, ELISA is an open source initiative that aims to create a shared set of tools and processes to help companies build and certify Linux-based safety-critical applications and systems
I imagine this means they're contributing both actively and financially to Linux.

I don't think he does. If you're talking about the third line, there's a space between the dots.
The dot command is equivalent to source (running the script in the context of the current shell).

This is Fine: Optimism & Emergency in the P2P Network

I could be wrong. I'd be happy to be shown wrong. Always room to learn.
Generally when I hear cyber security I think of things like data breaches, vulnerability research, malware analysis, netsec, appsec... Stuff like that.
I'm actually not really sure where I'd have posted. I remember seeing a meta community somewhere, maybe lemmy.world, where you can have discussions about Lemmy. But I'm really not sure.
And just to make it clear, I'm just giving you my honest opinion. Not trying to make you feel bad or anything.

I doubt they run on windows tbh. If they take issue with with monolithic design of Linux, then windows would be an even bigger problem.
Also, most of the devices in question are probably small controllers, incapable of running windows. (Microsoft are struggling to run it on arm so...)

Should programming.dev defederate from Meta if they implement ActivityPub?
Their user base is both the problem and the value they provide. The problem can be mitigated if they don't join as just one massive instance. They need to be federated within themselves as well.

He was probably working with bytes and not individual bits, but yeah. He basically wrote executables directly (to my understanding).

It doesn't necessarily mean that. It could also be that they attempt to block the rise of new platforms, and by doing so limiting the amount of platforms that they have to compromise.

Best Distro for Laptops?
Some thinkpads have official support for Ubuntu by the manufacturer (lenovo), which means battery optimizations out of the box, amongst other things. Might be relevant for your laptop.

Are you talking about the specific Lemmy instance?
There's https://join-lemmy.org/ if that's what you mean.

How is is this cyber security related?
And it's not P2P...
Jami is p2p for example. Direct communication between peers.
