However, there could be something in the summary on Slashdot, quite easily. The first word is "KDevelop". That could easily have been a link to the project front page, or it could have been expanded to "The KDevelop IDE" and everybody would be happy.

From the KDevelop Front Page.

That seems fairly self explanatory to me.

When he made the promise, the development team consisted only of himself. Now there is a whole company with a number of employees who depend on Minecraft licence sales for their salaries. If Notch open sources Minecraft, all these people will lose their jobs.

So it's probably greed, but not necessarily. In any case, sales haven't tailed off yet, so he hasn't broken his promise.

You think 1m AUD is big? A couple of years back I was on a project for the British government where they burned nearly that much every week. In the end they had literally burned it, they would have got better value because at least it would have kept the building warm.

Well of course you'd be absolutely insane to try to put sendmail and Apache in the same address space. In fact, sendmail forks (or at least used to fork when I last looked at it 10 years ago) to serve each incoming connection, so it's insane to try to restrict sendmail on its own to only one address space.

I thought my mention of kdaemonhostd (sendmail in the kernel, yay!) plus the fact that daemonhostd is derived from svchost(.exe) would be enough to show the post is not entirely serious.

I did do a quick scan of the web site to make sure the idea is not real. However, it's possible that I missed it.

Not sure about that, but they are inventing a new way to run services. They will have a new program called daemonhostd which can host multiple services. All you have to do is recompile sendmail and apache as shared object libraries and daemonhostd will dynamically load and run them in the same process to save resources.

As a further refinement, they are also writing kdaemonhostd which is exactly the same but it all runs in kernel space to improve performance.

But also,

A d too many.

Because systemd now has a replacement for ntpd.

The systemd people are (as far as I can tell) writing replacements for almost all the standard services that run on Linux because they want to take over the World bwahaha!

Why should short people subsidise tall people? That's an alternate way of looking at it. If you move all the seats further apart, prices go up and short people are effectively paying for leg room they don't need.

The answer to a security question is just another password that's easy to guess.

How do you propose getting an ssh connection to fix the issue with the CLI equivalent?

The X server runs on your client PC.

That's how X works.

No it doesn't. You need the X client libraries installed, but no X server needs to run on the server.

Heartbleed could expose server side private keys to the attacker. I seriously doubt that any IE bug could possibly be that bad.
