We use GitLab for hosting and CI as well as the issue tracker. Just the patch workflow goes over email although we have considered just maintainers submitting pull requests once the review and tags have been collected on list.
A lot of the more senior maintainers find the process of patch review in the webui suboptimal compared to email.
It's an ongoing debate in one of the projects I work with if we should move to a more forge oriented development process. For all it's faults email does provide a good record of discussion as well as evidence of review.
Care needs to be taken with big orgs like the NHS to not try and boil the ocean with massive IT systems. Concentrating on open interoperability standards allows for smaller more flexible contracts and the ability to swap out components when needed.
Open source licences would be the ideal default although at a minimum the purchasing org should have a licence that allows them (or subcontractors) to make fixes without being tied to the original vendor.
You would have thought for $33mil a pop they would have some countermeasures. I guess they are still several orders of magnitude cheaper than a jet with an expensive pilot so are more disposable?
I assume you need fairly sophisticated SAM systems to take out these drones. Are they all coming from Iran? Is this a step up in their missile capability?
The other option is to use VirtIO with Native Context support as a software based partitioning scheme that is relatively lightweight compared to the mdev approach.
I totally get why people are upset but the real question is what to do next. You can try lobbying the government with the massive majority by accusing them all of being bigots or form a new party (or join an existing one) with this reform at the top of their agenda.
Sadly while there may or no may not be a majority in the country who have sympathy with the plight of trans people I doubt there are enough where it is the top off their priorities when deciding who to vote for.
Urinals. Most restaurants and cafes have unisex cubicles. When you get to pubs and nightclubs you can get more pee draining space per square foot with a urinal.
As far as I understand it nothing stops an establishment just declaring all their toilets as unisex. I've certainly been in a number of drinking establishments where this has been the case.
"when looking at the Equality Act" is the key missing part off the quote. Would you expect an ex-barrister to contradict the ruling of the supreme court?
What's actually needed is new clear primary legislation to address all these issues. Parliament still had primacy here but good luck getting MPs wading into such a toxic debate?
Not just that - modern Androids compile apps in a VM these days to reduce the attack surface of the compiler. You can also push other services into VMs that support the main image. You could even push some vendor drivers into VMs and help keep the main kernel less of a vendor fork fest.
Does anyone know what the underlying filesystem is on DSM? The ability to easily replace disks with a degree of redundancy across the 4 bays is the biggest plus point for Synology although I have no doubt all the bits underneath are the Linux storage stack.
It's a shame because I really like the point and click nature of DSM. Although I'm a happy Linux hacker I don't want another Linux box to suck up my limited admin time just to store files.
FLOSS projects can only be sustainable if their are enough shared interests able to support it through contributions of all kinds. Fortunately the code is free so that constellation of support can change over time. It's a shame this particular line of government funding is coming to an end but others can help.
Android gets a leg up from being built on a FLOSS base but I don't think it was the community that pushed Android to where it is today. That's taken a lot of money and resources from Google and it's phone partners investing in the slightly more open platform than Apple.
That's not really true. Yes avoiding complex instructions makes the front end easier to pipeline but there are lots of smarts in the backend to do prediction and scheduling to keep the execution units fed. The ISA might be free to use but no one is sharing their highly optimised server silicon architecture designs.
RISC-V's challenge is can they standardise the software ecosystem enough that things just work across a multitude of chip providers or does everything devolve into specialist distributions taking advantage of each manufacturers "special sauce" custom instructions.
Gaining design wins over Arm's microcontrollers for bespoke hardware was the easy bit. Replacing stuff in the server space is much harder and something that took Arm decades to make inroads into.
