While they don't write it explicitly I think they're looking for a good junior developer, given that:

  • they are not asking for Rust work experience, instead for good Rust knowledge and experience with open source development, both of which you can obtain on your own if you're a competent student

    • but also, is there even anyone that has experience in Rust and compiler/interpreter/typesetting development and is looking for a job? If they did require that almost nobody would qualify and the cycle of "I don't have experience for applying to this job to get experience" would continue
  • 57k€ is not a bad salary for a junior developer in Europe

  • the two founders have graduated recently (~3 years ago) and have been working on Typst since then (their master thesis was on creating Typst itself), so it's likely they are looking for someone like them.

If Italy really and truly doesn't want a DNS server that is doing this to be accessible in Italy, go after Italian network service providers

They're already doing that for blocking IPs, and ended up blocking Google Drive and some Cloudflare CDN IPs.

Where I live there are a lot of "temporary" 30km/h speed limits that were never removed by the road workers after the work was completed.

Just an arm and leave it with the battery, problem solved.

A slightly better metric to train it on would be chances of survival/years of life saved thanks to the transplant. However those also suffer from human bias due to the past decisions that influenced who got a transpant and thus what data we were able to gather.

And then Discord arrived

The comparison with Discord makes non sense, the feature seems to be just a normal group chat, like the ones in Telegram/Whatsapp/iMessage. Discord's killer feature is the ability to have multiple channels within a server, which allows more organization.

Even in english this isn't true, for example dots can appear inside a sentence for multiple reasons (a decimal number, an abbreviation, a quotation, three dots, etc, etc), which would make you split it into more than one piece.

I don’t get sports fanatics…

Most people just want to watch a match of their home town/favourite team maybe once a week. This is very moderate, what's so bad about that? However in order to do that they either have to either spend an absurd amount of money to get access to all matches, or spend a bit less money to play lottery and hope the match they wanted to watch gets selected.

The only options you have are:

  • Dazn Standard (45€/month, 35€/month if you pay for 12 months) to get access to all the SerieA matches (and a whole bunch of other sports nobody cares about)

  • Dazn Goal Pass (20€/month, 14€/month if you pay for 12 months) to get access to 3 SerieA matches per week which you don't get to choose (and a bunch of other sports nobody cares about)

  • Sky (16€/month for the first 18 months, then whatever Sky wants after that) to get access to 3 SerieA matches per week which you don't get to choose (and a bunch of other stuff nobody cares about)

Most people care only about some specific matches, so your only option is Dazn.

Dazn is also a very crappy service, it often has connectivity problems and also has ads. Fun fact, if you get a connection issue while watching a Dazn ad, it will restart.

So, as usual, monopoly, high costs and crappy services drive piracy.

TIL that Discover let's you change it. AFAIK there's no way in Gnome Software though

What is good is users having a choice, but Fedora Flatpaks are the default choice and users have no way to change it. Many don't even realize they are using them instead of the official ones from Flathub.
