My cousin in Darwin, OP also means original post, I got the joke. The comment was about the science behind, so that’s what I replied about.
I try to contribute to things getting better, with sourced information, OC and polite rational skepticism.
Disagreeing with a point ≠ supporting the opposite side, I support rationality.
Let’s discuss to make things better sustainably.
Always happy to question our beliefs.

It’s not clear apparently. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junk_DNA.
Although OP seems to confuse non-coding DNA (the ~98%) and junk DNA. Some non-coding DNA has clearly identified roles, so it should be well below 98% of junk, and there’s a lot left to explore.


And one year later half of it breaks because of a Gnome update. Maybe you should have followed up the specific repo that warned that you needed to move to this new extension, or maybe it just went silent without explanation. Something like that.
If you need to run queries that aggregate big amounts of data in a reasonable time and cost, you’ll need something built for it. For example, with a column oriented file format instead of the row oriented file format found in traditional relational databases
The machines perform better with low temperature.
Some people put so much time and energy in this kind of stuff. Imagine we could harvest this level of motivation from everyone and put it at the service of the sustainable transition, we would have stopped global warming at the +1.5⁰C mark.
It could be a temporary hot fix to pass some issue in production, but could break other things if left longer. So better to revert it after the big issue had passed and take more time to work on a proper solution.
Did you put an option on the order?


I don’t think developing a web browser to keep it up to date with new web technologies and new security requirement is just “maintenance”. LibreWolf or any other Firefox fork don’t have the ressources do that, that’s the problem.
You need at least a mid size company that pays top developers continuously for years, and believe in open source, open web and privacy at the same time, we don’t have a lot of those.
If Mozilla Corporations and its 700 employees goes down, I don’t think we’ll have another one like this. We may get new actors due to governments wanting to break Google’s monopoly, but I doubt they would take the same open stance as Mozilla. Other fantasies include some philanthropist billionaire or the EU deciding to create an open software foundation to finance the open web.
Has any of that happened on the average Arch in the past years? The only thing I have seen is an email once or twice a year asking to run a manual operation to fix a package migration.


FOSDEM is a free event for software developers to meet, share ideas and collaborate. Every year, thousands of developers of free and open source software from all over the world gather at the event in Brussels. You don’t need to register. Just turn up and join in! FOSDEM takes place at the ULB Solbosch Campus, Brussels, Belgium, Europe, Earth. If you aren’t there, you may watch the live streams from the main tracks and developer rooms.
I think it’s probably because it is informal or maybe ambiguous.
I had a Pycharm linter with “inconsiderate writing list” flag my use of “bi” as inappropriate, recommending to use “bisexual” instead. In my data job, BI, means business intelligence, it’s everywhere.
It’s just viral marketing by OpenAI, and it’s working well.
