really says a lot that someone can say this apparently absolutely seriously
- baq 21d agoI was just lucky to have found an ancient rhel box when I desperately needed one. Luck is not a process.
- jcelerier 21d agoI mean I understand that this can happen, my point is that we should code things in a way where the huge majority your code will still work no matter if you have an old rhel box or the latest archlinux, just like today we can port doom to pretty much any platform without too much trouble.
