- thatswrong0 9y agoSure, but the moment you have to do anything slightly non-standard you get stuck in jargon land
- coldtea 9y agoFor like 2 minutes... And then you don't have to think about it for the rest of your life...
- rbanffy 9y agoUntil the next time, when you need to either remember what you did once a couple months back or relearn it again. The metaphors could be a little bit clearer.
- pmiller2 9y agoIf only there were a site on the internet where you could search for these things....
- _acme 9y agoThere is, but that's a waste of my time, when we could all just use normal words.
- ryandrake 9y agoYea, like grep and awk! Naming things has always been hard.
- rbanffy 9y agoGrep and awk were a new thing decades ago. I expected we knew better now, but, it seems, we are doomed to ignore the past and go reinventing (and then having to fix) our own square wheels.
- funzofactofive 9y agoYeah...if only I didn't have to press one for "English"
- rbanffy 9y agoThat kind of defeats the purpose of a software manager, doesn't it?
- pbreit 9y agoLike what?
- to3m 9y agoI still use MacPorts, so I don't worry about it either.
- jonhohle 9y agoAs do I. MacPorts has fit my mental model in a way that Homebrew never did.
