on: KSP2 is spamming the Windows Registry until the game stops working
It's far worse than that. Take-Two bought Squad and KSP along with it. Soon after they took Squad's original IP from them and gave it to Private Division to develop KSP 2. Then they poached staff from Squad. It's not like KSP 2 is developed in some innovative way, I was expecting that game like KSP 2 should have been developed in it's own engine since it's so unique among other games. But nooo. KSP 2 still uses Unity, and in worse way. You are better off installing better graphics mods on KSP.

on: India suspends visas for Canadians as row escalates
Do you expect for someone to not be defensive after you accuse them of murder? And then how can you ask them to investigate themselves? In civilized countries false accusation is considered criminal offense. Accusation comes after evidence, not before or during investigation.

on: India suspends visas for Canadians as row escalates
So far this mysterious evidence is not shared with ANYONE. Whether it is leader of opposition, five eyes allies whom he seeked support from, with the government he is asking to cooperate.
In all likelyhood the evidence does not exist.

That's exactly how parliamentary politics work. NDP that has 25 seats in parliament can revoke their support and Trudeau stops being a prime minister.

on: Breaking up with Flask and FastAPI: Why they don’t scale for ML model serving
Simply could also mean it's thriving. FastAPI has nearly 50k stars. It is very popular and very effective in what it promises. Active repos with similar popularity have way, WAY more issues and pull requests, projects like Apache/echarts, Godot, Redis or Grafana.
Projects with similar stars, momentJS or Jquery don't see much active development have very few issues and pull requests.

on: 1Password 8 will be subscription only and won’t support local vaults
+1 for Bitwarden
I used to use Enpass and never had an issue but it's not open-source and you have to pay for Mobile client.

on: DeaDBeeF – A modular audio player for Unix-like systems
Let me introduce you to Tauon Music Box
https://tauonmusicbox.rocks/It's Linux only and it's amazing. It does not automatically re-scan the folder for music but it's instant, may be in future it can do that.
I'm yet to find a music player that is so simple, uncluttered and powerful.

GNU/Linux is not limited to Desktop. It's magnitudes more relevant than Mozilla.

on: Nginx UI – Access and modify the Nginx configurations files without CLI
10 years young me would have liked having something like this. Nowadays any manual configuration is a big no-no. All my configuration parsing and building happen in the CI pipeline in an automated manner.

on: Wordmesh: Using t-SNE and word2vec to generate clustered wordclouds
Sometimes I find wordcloud visualization to be very trivial. It has always bugged me to see many people using wordcloud just because it can look cool sometimes. Using font colors, size and clustering is a great way to visualize meaningful dimensions.
Since most of my analysis is document level, I create content and relation based graphs of documents and use Gephi to visualize word and document clusters in a meaningful and beautiful way.

on: Ask HN: Is Java worth learning?
Not necessarily. One can pick up Kotlin as entirely new language. If you are working with old Java code, then yes.
