It is like polish Watergate: the prosecutor has been criticizing minister Ziobro and already lost her job (not only her, this problem is now on EU table and European trials say polish gov is breaking the law doing this) and now she learned minister Ziobro was spying her (and probably is still doing this)


The problem is that Ziobro was already doing this (illegally wiretapping opposition) together with Kamiński and Kaczyński when they were in power in 00s. They lost power, almost got to jail but avoided it thanks to political calculation of the next party (that used them as "look at least we aren't like them" threat), then they got elected again anyway in 2015.

They have majority support right now because of social spending and their supporters don't care about rule of law, corruption, any of that. There were already dozens of similar-scale scandals since 2015. Nobody cares. It's frustrating, really.


Wow. Just need to have something against state level power … just can’t fight them on an individual basis on one’s own alone.


Sounds like the best time to start your container-house building company


I am sorry but you are wrong. I remember times when first company forked WebKit to make their WebKit based browser (it was apple creating safari, or if my memory is wrong it was Google and their chrome). Mozilla foundation was much upset they didn't choose Gecko. But the company (Apple?) said it was because easiness of own implementation. Gecko was too hard to adapt.


Reminds me about the Czech song "szukam cię Miłoszu z Warszawy" where the pal is called "frajer" too, so Czech people use it too


In Czech and Slovak frajer/frajerka are normally used to mean boyfriend/girlfriend (unlike e.g. in Russian).


It is still bundled in WordPress and WP is still most popular CMS (30% sites on the web runs on it)

It is not necessary to use jQuery when you build site but tons of tutorials on the web is using it so people does.

Plus wp-admin still loads jQuery for itself so it is in use even unnoticed.


Have you bought a new laptop recently? Because I just switched from 7 years old decent laptop to a new decent in December. And I have completely different feelings than you: I didn't know my software stack can be even faster than it was but it is!

System load was 10 seconds and is 10 seconds again (Linux here) but for example starting phpstorm is like 2-3 times faster.

I had a few GB big project which was scanned for 30 minutes when loaded first time in phpstorm. Now it takes max 10 minutes.


Yes within the last year... Lenovo with 32 GB Ram, core I7, 1GB SSD, decent GPU... I'm just amazed that the UX hasn't improved after all these years.


Forgot to say am running Windows because of client software requirements.


You are in a wrong comments thread. This is a post about how popular with is WordPress and it is popular because you install plugins there and have site without completely any programming language. There are no ops (or at least they are not a part of wordpress success), there are people who know how to buy shared hosting and that's it.
