Where is this even coming from? The guy above me is saying not to give devs better hardware and to teach them to code better.

I followed up with an example of how using indices in a database to boost the performance helped more than throwing more hardware at it.

This has nothing to do with having worked on old code. Stop trying to pull my comment out of context.

But yes you’re right. Adding indexes to a database does nothing to solve adding a new feature in the scenario you described. I also never claimed it did.

This is very true. You don’t need a bigger database server, you need an index on that table you query all the time that’s doing full table scans.

You’d be surprised how often DDOS can be an inside job.

You are correct. I misread ( or my brain farted ) and looked up the wrong one.

Libreoffice their latest blogpost is from the 20th of August 2025. There have been a few releases in the past few months as well.

Openoffice their latest ( Apache Openoffice 4.1.15 ) was released almost 2 years ago ( December 2023 ).

Libreoffice seems like a more recent, better supported tool over Openoffice which hasn’t seen any updates since 2023 according to their own website.

I’m on my phone, so I didn’t search extensively. But I think that also plays a role in why there’s a much larger fanbase for libreoffice rather than Openoffice.

I’ve no recent experience with either so I can’t comment on how well either works.

Edit: I looked up the wrong one. My statement remains correct w.r.t. Openoffice, but they mentioned Onlyoffice which is a different product.

Americans believe 20% of the people have an income of over 1 million dollars and 20% 30%of Americans live in NYC. Am I reading this chart wrong?

???

NYC has a population of what? 10 million people? So they think there’s only 30 million people living in the states?
