Is this for real? They really thought git was an appropriate tool on which to build a messaging service?

Not quite, it gets you about 90% there. Even with a grammar to use off the shelf, you still need to write queries to make use of it for highlighting, text object selection, auto in…

This is surely just the bias of those willing to make a comment one way or the other. If you are so-so about it, you probably don't make the effort to make a comment.

This stuck out to me too. Terraform absolutely does check the current reality of the state and applies changes to do what the HCL tells is to. They are either using terraform in a …

Am I the only one who was extremely confused by the writing? I think the whole effect was just lost on me, because I went from thinking her brother was the one who died, to thinkin…

Show me where anyone involved in Rust in an official capacity has claimed that "reliable software cannot be written in C/C++"

Wow this guy is fucking delusional. I can't believe he seriously thinks his employees are smiling every day, and that they aren't burnt out because they "believe in the mission"

Wow. So you are saying that because I chose not to use Chrome that all software suffers? I didn't realize that there was only one good choice, or that Firefox was "slow and bloated…

Chrome was always a non-starter for me without an option to cycle tabs in most-recently used order.

Wow, judging from the comments in here, there are a lot of people that are in management positions that are horrible judges of technical ability and value. This question asks so ma…

I may do that in the future, once Rust has stabilized. They've recently changed the concurrency model to use native threads, instead of green threads, so their documentation is not…

They list the algorithms explicitly here: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/security/Mess... And here: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/secur...

Another example of "Wtf were they thinking when they wrote this?" in the Java stdlib is MessageDigest. To build a digester object, you must pass it a string literal to tell it whic…

Exactly. No policies are changing. They're just putting more resources into enforcing existing laws.

Even if the numbers are completely made up, I'm not going to be outraged that police decided to enforce laws that cyclists need to be abiding by anyway.

As many others have already said, if you've been programming for 18 years, then yes, you are a programmer. I wouldn't say you're crazy for not liking puzzles, but I would say you'r…

Hmm, perhaps I haven't been around long enough to experience breakages like this, then. I began using Arch before the switch to systemd, and I use it with vanilla Gnome. The only t…

I've used Arch as my primary OS for over a year now, and I've never had any major problems. What flakiness have you experienced?

I'm curious about how these web framework crates, like this and IronFramework.io, are dealing with the imminent obsoletion of rust-http. It seems rather strange to build a complete…

My thoughts exactly. "But what about the magic of version control, GitHub, pull requests, forking clones, cloning forks, diffing forks, forking diffs, etc., etc., etc.? None of tha…

Ahh, I see. That makes more sense. However, I'm not sure I understand how the definition extends to all numbers. Edit: nvm, I'm dumb.

I feel like I'm missing something. Isn't the derivative of a constant just defined to be 0? Why does the definition in the article restrict it to primes?

I'm truly not trying to be rude, but if you agree with the above point, then why did you make it publicly available? Only two outcomes can come of this: 1. Nobody uses it, for the …
