Sincerely: what the fuck is wrong with you?

Isn't it a legitimate question? We have special protection for under represented groups. So when the dominant group starts taking the identity of underrepresented groups and coopting their protections, they are no longer protected. The two things are at odds with each other.

I'll engage. I think your comments are clearly bigoted, and I'll tell you why. What you do with that is up to you.

> Hmm, somehow I knew Justine is a 'transwoman' by this feat. Lucky guess I suppose...

You use scare quotes around "transwoman". Why is that? Is that a concept you believe is not real somehow?

You are guessing that something technically impressive was achieved by a trans woman. Why is that? Are women not capable of technical feats?

> Lucky guess I suppose...

This implies that women being technically inferior is something obvious, something we all know but can't say.

> If all the high achieving women in tech end up being [yet-again-scare-quotes (and for some reason one word)] "transwomen", ...

This isn't a playful hypothetical question. You are reinforcing your claim that women in tech are not high achieving.

> I think trans/self identifying people should be in a separate category so they don't exploit allowances made for under represented minorities.

> So when the dominant group starts taking the identity of underrepresented groups and coopting their protections

From these two statements it is clear you think that trans women are the dominant group (men?) that are exploiting special allowances meant for women. Because in your eyes trans women do not count as women. And they don't deserve protection.

You are getting downvoted because the community recognizes the bigotry against cis and trans women that is the backbone of your two comments.

"Jaw-dropping" is definitely a term I'd use to describe some of her more infamous tweets and blog posts, too.

Please don't. Resisting extrinsic provocation is key to thread quality.

Understood (with my apologies, I mistakenly assumed it was on topic).

FWIW, I like and agree with the things I was referencing, I didn't mean it in any way as a jab or provocation. I shall endeavor to do a better job staying on the topic of the article in question.

I will say, I WOULD absolutely love it, if it weren't for the little problem...that...I can't "just add to the zip"...because for whatever reason, it ruins the special setup... on windows, 7zip and windows explorer's builtin zip stuff refuse to modify it, as if it was corrupted (understandable), but explorer can view it, on linux, zip (apparently info-zip 3.0 according to the version) can add to it just fine, but ruins the special properties, on linux it just spawns the debug gdb with "no symbol table loaded" and no register or assembly data, and on windows it's either wrong format, or `check failed: 0x1 == 0x0 (32)` so also broken... I definitely love the idea of this, and the APE in general, and it works as-is, but modification seems impossible to me...changing to .zip doesn't change the breakage

anyone else had luck with adding stuff to it? is it just me? or is it like "it works with openbsd zip command only"?

It was on topic, your mistake was to write a comment that comes off snarky and political of you fail to read it with positive intent.

I just spent 30 minutes reading about this. I'm so shocked that I'm logging in to comment after 5 years of lurking. Justine has built a c library that allows you compile a binary once and have it run it on any os or baremetal. The SAME binary. Quite frankly, that sentence doesn't even make sense to me. Check out https://storage.googleapis.com/justine/cosmopolitan/index.ht... As far as I'm concerned, this is literal m…

Ok well this doesn’t work on Mac, so much for not needing to cross-compile on every architecture. It’s because of the OSX Gatekeeper but if majority of people need to self-sign or otherwise compile this binary I’m not sure if it is that portable be it if it’s only a Mac thing. This dumps the zip content directly on the wire skipping an extra kernel write. There have been attempts before to run the same binary on mult…

Youre really missing the point here.

This zip file is an executable webserver, you just add files to it and it will serve them when you run it.

If you can't understand what is cool about that maybe just don't speak.

Author here. Absolutely. I used to love Turbo Pascal and Delphi when I was younger. If Free Pascal uses GNU LD.BFD or LLVM LLD when it links programs, then all you'd need to do is is configure it to use cosmopolitan.a when linking system call functions like read(), write(), etc. See https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan Another option is if Free Pascal wants to write all the system call support from scratch, then doin…

Since I can't upvote your Show HN twice, I'll upvote this comment. I learned something interesting tonight from your websites. Thanks! chibicc is a really fun idea! If I was in college, I would take a compiler course from you. Taken from your README: "chibicc is developed as the reference implementation for a book I'm currently writing about the C compiler and the low-level programming. The book covers the vast topic…

chibicc is actually written by Rui Ueyama.
