The core is open source for some of their editors, WebStorm is not for example. Some frameworks and tools are only supported in the paid edition, and I missed then within the first hour of using the community version.

vim and VS Code are not alternatives as they are not IDEs, just editors. Especially for vs code, it manages to barely do half of what IntelliJ does while being slower and hogging way more memory (this is before extensions). I also do TDD and when I pair up with my coworkers sometimes we are not able to find equivalent features that make my development easier. And don’t even get me started with a debugger, in vs code it manages to take up more space while giving less information and options. It’s simply inferior.

I’ve tried and tried to create an IDE equivalent setup in vim and emacs but it was always “off”, I was stuck for hours and days trying to set up functionalities that work out of the box in IntelliJ, and after some months I just gave up.

Ableton, IntelliJ, 1password are miles ahead their alternatives. I also haven’t been able to replace google maps for public transit (very sad about that).

I have home assistant green, I just plugged it in and it set itself up fully, zero intervention needed. In a few minutes, everything was ready and it automatically found and (after confirming) imported all my existing stuff. Flawless.

UX is very unintuitive though, I’ve had it for a while and can not get used to how things are organized

drawio is not open source

not really

As with other digital payment methods, intermediaries like your bank would have access to the personal data that are necessary to comply with EU law, such as anti-money laundering and terrorism financing regulations

Members of the USSR were sovereign nations invaded by Russia, with most cultures not even Slavic and in no way related to Russian. Erasing their identity so casually makes my blood boil.

oh, got it, thanks. feel so bad about people having read my incorrect comment haha

That’s a huge change. Reviewing one years’ worth of code at once is practically impossible, this significantly reduces the chances of a third party spotting malicious changes in the code.

You forgot to mention the fact that the US is not a member of ICC

that’s great to hear, thanks for the info. It’s strange that they don’t mention that on their websites more prominently

they offer so much, I’m surprised I hadn’t heard about them before. Most of their apps have proprietary clients though, right? And they don’t seem to offer privacy features like simplelogin for email, which was the main reason why I subscribed. and additionally, one would then have to pay separately for vpn

edit: they have open source clients

omg totally, I hate that people do that. I don’t see a way out without introducing digital literacy classes at schools

it doesn’t have to be only meaningless computations. And even if it were, the cost is nothing compared to such a huge scale of privacy infringement

is it? Someone mentioned proof of work being effective for Tor.

yeah otherwise my light shirt comes out covered in dark fibers and vice versa. When I had only muted colors I was able to wash together. I also started switching to non toxic clothes but still have some synthetic items so they’re separated too, so the safe clothes don’t get unnecessary covered in microplastics (they’re emitted more intensively during washing). And then wool and other delicate clothes get ruined by normal spinning cycle so they need to be washed separately too.

But I just have a divider in my laundry basket so I don’t have to sort them out

imagine being confused that people do not enjoy mass produced drink made of lowest quality materials and prefer something that doesn’t taste like it has already been drank before…

also itt: people who think only IPA is craft beer. If you’re not into IPA, which is a matter of taste, you can just drink delicious craft lager and pilsner.

Thank you so much for writing all this! It is extremely educating and also very concise.

no, it is not even an indo-european language, it has its own separate family.

I am not sure about the definition of the word but look up Georgian, 33 letters, 33 sounds. Each letter has one and only one sound, which never ever changes despite the position in the word or the surrounding letters

thanks for sharing this, it’s really encouraging to know that I don’t have to feel the connection immediately
