This is about stretch. It's the code name of the current stable Debian release, and it's also a tag on the main site. Most of the usage seems to be about debian-stretch -- there are 19 questions tagg …

You often can rephrase a question seeking a software recommendation into one that asks about how to accomplish a goal, but as fixer1234 discussed, there are many cases where it isn't quite that simple …

13 questions are currently tagged utilization (I removed the tag from one other question). How to find maximum amount of requests for a file with a certain utilization percent? elasticsearch + kiban …

I would actually make an argument somewhat different from that of Journeyman Geek. The reason is simple: The question specifies a version of Acrobat Reader. It even did so back in April 2015 when it …
