Updating causing a rebuild isn't really a Nix or even a build tool problem though, is it? cache.nixos.org can't provide everything for every architecture all the time. With multipl…

Yet, you didn't write the code yourself. On Gitoxide: Given that the author read the docs and source code [0], and literally copied files over from the git source [1], it also is l…

This is simply plagiarism of GPL-licensed code, and license-washing as well. I can understand working backwards from a test suite, but this literally just reads the original source…

It's not in the base game, but there is a plugin that generates a map of your server and hosts it, called Bluemap [0]. It has an example. [1] I always toss it on the servers I host…

The Sino-Korean words stand out, but in a beautiful sense to my ears/eyes. It helps that they're generally short at 2 syllables and are represented nicely with the Hangeul script. …

No need for forgiveness, I appreciate the pedantry and explanations. Personal grips aside, I'm forever a student of the language.

It's ironic no doubt to be complaining about this topic, in English. I can empathize with that 12th-century Anglo-Saxon.

This is really interesting, thanks for putting it together. I figure for specific topics like computing it's pretty much unavoidable.

Seems you can capture HN's attention by replacing /dev/urandom with random paw mashes. Really glad the price of hardware and VPSs [0] are going up so people can generate and toss a…

.gitkeep is intuitive and easy to understand. Unignoring a .gitignore is not intuitive. This falls squarely into "clever optimization tricks that obscure intent and readability". D…

That may apply to a vanilla account, but if your account is old, then that's just the kind of stuff you click like on, dwell on, bookmark, etc. We have to consider that these men m…

I don't think your examples are comparable. DHH is (/was?) the face of ruby on rails and basecamp, whereas Cook is just the latest person at the helm of a tremendously large (perso…

Well, it's hard to break bread with someone who you fundamentally disagree about things like humans rights issues with. Family or not. You don't just skip over that, and in fact wh…

I'm not describing just the internet. I'm describing the nature of the world around us, both in meatspace and on in the internet in the context of this discussion. As regrettable a…

The entire idea of F/OSS itself is political, and was very radical. We're just accustomed to it now, so it's not "political", in other words, it's not "controversial". Perhaps F/OS…
