Half a dozen of them have real cost/benefits trade-offs that make preaching for a single one harmful. The other thousand are just completely useless waste of time not worth mentioning.

I’m deeply sorry. If it’s any consolation, it will eventually happen to everybody.

Or at least everybody that didn’t see the light and adopt The Penguin… But let’s leave religion to another time.

You use it to write programs.

It is. But I doubt they are used by 3 combined people.

The Debian project needs to keep the machines for compiling and testing. And there’s probably no other machine of those architectures available for the enthusiasts to actually use.

Yes. It’s newby-friendly, what is great for the time every 2 or 3 years that it opens in my face and there’s no alternative editor installed.

Copy and paste are there too, but there’s no reason to use them instead of the terminal buffer, so I can edit things in an editor I like. I just wish it made it easier to delete several lines at the same time.

Even better. If you set it to -20°C, it was already done 5 hours ago.

Well…

It’s name-value pairs, with groups denoted by balanced brackets. It’s close to as good as you can get for one kind of data serialization.

What is impressive is how many problems people manage to fit in something so small.

What is not clear is if the software development division updated their practices.

You know somebody is really lost when they decide the empty set is a subset specifically of unsigned integers and nothing else.

If we survive Y2026…

All of our modern infrastructure is.

That’s how the C++ code should have looked all the time. And the amount of people that get surprised and complain about this is just more evidence that nobody should write C++. Ever.

That one is easy. Page breaks are just some hidden code you can delete.

Go try extending a numbered list with paragraph breaks inside it.

Yes, you can pull the “more options” thing and run it.

Windows will block any software that isn’t popular. Unless the developer pays Microsoft.

Are you still taking about macs? Because that’s Windows.

That’s why you know that if your code hasn’t put up a fight yet, it’s because it’s saving its energy.

The problem is that “the same issue” here means “there’s any error at all with the MS Store”. Any discussion about there will be useless.

Meetings! Meetings as far as the eyes can see!

There’s no escape, there’s no rest. Life is only meetings now.

Well, round numbers will indeed make the math easier.
