Linus Torvalds wants to have a word with you.
- loup-vaillant 17y agoConsidering that the Linux kernel hardly is the sole user of Git, these 30 points hardly apply. Conversely, Emacs certainly deserve a few fail points for being the sole user of its programming language (Emacs Lisp).
- docgnome 17y agoNot really sure what the Emacs jab has to do with anything. It's a bit like comparing apples and Godzilla.
- loup-vaillant 17y agoWell, "rolling your own programming language" wasn't mentioned in this fail list, but I feel it could have been, since build systems and vcs are mentioned. Hence the fail points for Emacs. Now, it can also yield win points for using an especially well suited programming language. (Bye the way, I love Emacs)
- eru 17y agoUnix came with its own programming language.
- tbrownaw 17y agoI'd like to know if this point is meant to apply to self-hosting VCSes.
