Is exa gone ? Can you not download exa anymore ? Are the binaries deleted from the internet ? Is the source completely overwritten ? Has it been removes from crates.io and from pac…

Exactly! ls is alive, and just exists, mostly. The commits done on it are extremely minor changes to save up 0.0001% of performance and because the APIs it was using are sometimes …

pneumatic drill: 8 years, dead the sharp stick of metal my dad gave me: 38 years and counting long live the sharp stick of metal ? What a terrible take. Yes, ls is maintained. Alth…

It's not a full Chrome browser. It's actually an Unreal Engine 4 application, that only displays an Unreal Motion Graphics UI, that only contains a single Web Browser widget, that …

The Epic Games Launcher: - remembers which pane you were on last time you closed, so you'll never see the store unless you go there on purpose. - allows you to disable every notifi…

>You have to ignore 120 years of intellectual progress on economics to still want to apply labor theory of value to problems. There may be a day when we can achieve some semblance …

Europe's definition of monopoly is one that actually makes sense, unlike the US's bafflingly stupid version. You do not need over 50% to be a monopoly.

And Apple wasn't planning to use USB-C either, but the EU didn't argue and told them to. Apple does not get to override laws. They either obey, or leave the market.

One is software and is explicitly made to be replaceable. Your iPhone will not stop working because you uninstalled the Weather app. It might be slightly more unhappy if you desold…

HRTFs are not an Apple device feature, they are a widely known thing. Apple just markets it as Spatial audio

While I do not have any control over whether the place I buy my jeans from uses overworked children from Bangladesh, I also have the very basic human empathy needed to know you sho…

The absolute entitlement to believe that delivery workers should be coming up to your door at the 9th floor, while complaining about "ethics". You're using a delivery service like …

To be fair, I have never advocated for Emacs either. Nano for quick edits, proper IDEs for anything else.

>You can pry vim from my cold dead hands. I won't need to, you're already giving yourself carpal tunnel with all the :wQ! INSERT-MODE :wmkGDonzn zz CWSFD, these hands are already m…

You can add other languages, such as Kotlin to that list. It is explicitly made to give you the ability to build a strongly typed DSL with proper scoping, references, validation, c…

Right, I forgot to mention dealing with the most cult-of-personality community that has ever existed.

Either ask very politely for years, or be in denial like half the Jai community that writes Jai but is never able to compile it. Yes, there is a whole Jai community wiki made from …

I'd say my work has gone in the hands of a few million people and made their lives (mostly) better, along with what all of my coworkers did. But most importantly, I'm not out there…

>Oh, i didn't know that there are any. Plenty! Although, it's not limited to iterators: most languages that have first class lambdas/closures behave this way. Kotlin has `it` as th…

Just like every language that implicitly names the current value of the iterator: - It's the innermost iterator that takes priority - You are encouraged to name your iterators if y…

The vendor lock-in is a feature to them. They're not a tech company. They're banks. They're insurances. Lock-in means they can send a lot of cash to someone and the problem gets fi…

>What does Paypal, Klarna, or even maybe Amazon give up by not using mainframes? Simplicity. Because instead of having an enormous team to maintain their multi-million line Kuberne…
