I can't do that. I feel naked without a watch (smart or not) on my wrist.

Gnome's Bonobo was basically an OLE2's clone using CORBA instead of COM.

Bonobo specifies a number of such contracts, or interfaces, as they are usually called. The Bonobo interfaces were inspired by Microsoft's OLE2 [3]. Microsoft uses OLE2 for interconnecting components in the Windows-environment. Bonobo is not an implementation of OLE2, however. Many of the design decision that went into OLE2 were re-evaluated, and all Windows-specific parts had to be adapted for Unix and the X Window System. And importantly, while OLE2 is based on Microsoft's proprietary Component Object Model (COM) [2] as the underlying communications layer, Bonobo uses the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) [9] instead.

One of the cool parts was the components were network transparent so you could have in a document a component running in your desktop alongside another one running in another continent. CORBA was ultimately replaced by DBus which was inspired by KDE's DCOP.

They f**ed up in the beginning with two incompatible standard libraries and people coming from C++ didn't like that it was garbage collected.

You want to be a car mechanic but instead of using car engines in the classes they use engines from oil rigs or some other shit. Sure, the basics should be the same and the experience somewhat valuable but I would consider that a monumental waste of time. Unless you convince me that Racket is much better than Python for that task.

High quality synthetic data=let's use something better than random shit we get from random Internet webpages.

The most corrupt government in Spain's history. They are attacking the judges because they are investigating members or ex-members pf the government. The prime minister's wife and brother are being investigating. They are continually accusing the press of lying about things that are later proven to be true.They are continually lying and spreading false news about the opposition and those who criticize them. What they want is for only their "truth" to be spread.

The logo is not the problem. They lack focus and understanding. They ruined Mozilla's identity. Mozilla was born as a geek organization and they turned it into a posh group that wastes money on the whims of the managers.

A foundation that spends its money in improving the project instead of political crap. Shocking!

The only part I don't believe is the "pressure". He was a willing collaborator.

That's the problem. It's not very nice to mix C and Rust in one module. So it's only for new modules/subsystems or they would have to rewrite existing code (and in places with multiple mantainers/contributors that can be tough).

So that's how Vulcanians are going to detect us.

They realized they can earn much more than 5$ with ads. I wonder how much.

Does he talk about how he and Steve Balmer wanted to get rid of Paul Allen and buy his shares very cheap when he had cancer?

Now the thieves will get a fancy notification saying "you are being tracked".

Select all the picture that has cars/dogs/whatever until there is no one left. The whatever continues to reappear. When it's done, instead of "solve" there is a "next" button. Repeat, combined with selecting parts of a picture. After 6 or 7 rounds and more than 40 clicks finally the "solve" button appears but apparently I guessed wrong and I have to restart the process. I resist the urge to throw the laptop out the window, curse the captcha's developers and promise to kill them if I meet them in real life. This happened to me more than a couple of times.
