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.

Well… This doesn’t prove him wrong.

I imagine one is the sand-people tribe, that is arguably ok, and the other is the younglings murder that is a serious misuse of that word.

“We couldn’t imagine Iran would close Hormuz”

Yeah… I’m still trying to imagine if Branningan could be that stupid.

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.

It’s for people that have the hands at the other end of their arms.

they smell bad IRL

They smell about as bad as a feral cat. What they do is they make you smell bad if you scare them.

You don’t have a home remedy for removing skunk smell, removing gum from hair or curing a hangover?

Most of them are also extremely deep under some really hard to dig terrain.

Also, their numbers have some large error bars.

Building a train is a lot of work. But if the last guy is willing to loan it, it would be great.

Well, it did come down a few months later.

Don’t feel demotivated. AI can’t replace developers now, and this current crop of them are just unable to.

The thing is, when you don’t know what you are doing, vibecoding looks like it works. This is either one case of this, or it’s some of the last 30 billion OpenAI raised this week at work.

Beep beep!

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.

At this time in his war, Putin was still sending tanks and artillery into Ukraine, in a compact row formation that was completely dependent on good road conditions and without enough fuel to reach any destination.

They were still saying “wait until the main firepower gets there, then Ukraine will be toast!”.

Instead, Trump already declared he’s prepared for a forever war. Those people are blazingly fast!

Yes. The only times I’ve had any problem with pipewire were when pulse decided to run for some reason and disrupted everything.

Also, I can open a pipewire device, write data there, and not run into C assert faults. I can do this with oss and alsa too, of course, but AFAIK, it’s impossible with pulse and all the Linux DEs ran on pure magic for a decade.
