I don't see re-training or decent support during that non-instantaneous process on the table, do you?
People keep talking about all those jobs out there, but I don't see the usual hallmarks of that condition, such as potential employers offering training/education or high wages.
In other words, people whose jobs are not endangered to truckers: I have the utmost confidence in your ability to heal from any non-fatal injury, therefor I don't feel at all bad about breaking every bone in your body and leaving you with the hospital bill. I'm sure your family will do just fine while you heal, so we won't be helping there either.
Perhaps if the people who will benefit from them jumping would provide some sort of life boat, they would be more willing to jump. You seem to be quite generous with other people's lives.
If the move doesn't reduce the required workforce or at least lower the skill required of that workforce, it won't be done.
Why would anyone spend millions on a program that requires them to pay the same number of people double what they're paid now as a cost saving measure?
We routinely hear about high recidivism, suggesting the deterrent effect of punishment is somewhere near zero. If criminals are behaving in a deterministic manner, it suggests that providing conditions similar to those that tend to commit less crime would be more effective.
No. I stated that Pai was not democratically elected and that his action was not consistent with democracy, so attacking him wouldn't be an overthrow of democracy. I then said it's fair enough to call a physical attack on Pai too extreme for the situation.
In other words, it would be wrong to PHYSICALLY attack Pai over this, but it would not be an overthrow of democracy. Kind of like stealing a car is wrong but it isn't murder.
I don't see why the app will be slow if you've done it right. OP already specified multi-user and client-server, so you aren't going to eliminate the network traffic by stuffing a bunch of stuff into the client.
So none of the toolkits had the performance you needed unless you did it through a browser using those same toolkits? Is there a xritique of X itself somewhere in there?
From now on, I'm just going to call you exhibit A.
Do you REALLY think the people who need that sort of help have the political power and wherewithal to bring the state to oppress the wealthy on their behalf?
Not surprising though coming from someone who considers himself hard done if someone works full time and expects to be paid enough to live on.
Since you're already willing to do a rewrite in something other than Motif (you don't actually think THAT is going to be updated to support Wayland, do you?) why not try a modern toolkit interacting with X?
Even if you're in the same facility, you probably don't want to squint at a rack mounted LCD display in a room that sounds like it's full of angry bees.
That's a funny thing. Most of Wayland's fan's claims for workarounds hinge on apps continuing to support X. I guess the easiest way to make sure of that is to use X.
Perhaps Wayland should just formally make itself a next generation X server and be done with it.
If that was the case, they wouldn't be switching the default BACK to X. They would never have made Wayland the default at all. If they were feeling especially sour about it, Wayland wouldn't have even been an option.
The problem is Wayland, like most of Freedesktop has been all about claiming "nobody uses that anyway" and then when throngs of people report that they DO, long on promises like "you'll be able to do that again real soon now" and short on delivery.
The same sort of nonsense is what caused Mozilla to slingshot Chrome into the lead.

I don't see you lining up for the big jump.

AH, unrepentant, I see. *PLONK*

When he said that, he was necessarily characterizing OP's statemens as that.
You still resorted to Ad Hominem attacks. I await your sincere apology.
Not a straw man, ArmoredDragon's claim that it would be an attack on democracy. I see that you're now resorting to ad hominem attacks.
To be a strawman, I would have to have initially proposed that this would be an attack on democracy. I m not ArmoredDragon.
Unless you feel as if you have free will.

Please read more carefully.
If we do not have free will, wouldn't that imply that it is wrong to punish people for their crimes? What if we have suffering but not free will?
I don't see even an informal usability study anywhere in that to-do list. I guess actual usability is no longer an objective?
Right, that's not democracy. So attacking it isn't overthrowing democracy.

Yes, but did it make you pour hot grits down your pants?

In this case, we know how the public comments were handled and ultimately discarded.
Because it's beyond silly to call assertion of the will of the people an overthrow of democracy?
Sounds like they still shouldn't be handling that responsibility. Perhaps it's a bit early to let Wayland force the issue.
Since you're already willing to do a rewrite in something other than Motif (you don't actually think THAT is going to be updated to support Wayland, do you?) why not try a modern toolkit interacting with X?
Yeah, everyone knows gamers prefer laggy VESA mode displays.
Even if you're in the same facility, you probably don't want to squint at a rack mounted LCD display in a room that sounds like it's full of angry bees.
What forever? Wayland is barely used. You sound like it's been the dominant GUI display for 5 years.
That's a funny thing. Most of Wayland's fan's claims for workarounds hinge on apps continuing to support X. I guess the easiest way to make sure of that is to use X.
