I fucking love the .emacs community. To keep pushing a project from the 70's and keep it current is quite a feat. Rebuilding from scratch is its own challenge, but to keep maintaing something at this scale and have such quotes be reali

Apparently someone looked into the FreeBSD temacs commentary on the status report on the HN landing page today ... https://www.freebsd.org/news/status/report-2016-04-2016-06.h... https://news.ycombinato

Love them or hate them (I am in the latter category), but observe even Uber mentions some of their heavier backend stack for internal usage runs on Dropwizard. "The highest-volume service in this area is Gurafu, which provides a set of

When I first heard the dev of CRIU interviewed on FLOSS Weekly it blew my mind. From "Torvalds said I will not merge this crazy talk" into being able to halt active TCP connections and then horse whisper them to another container

Thank Allah I am not the only one. Oh crap, mission compromised! SIGABRT! Wait, is everyone in this room part of the hacker cell? Are we all hacking each other? Haha. (Honestly, what disturbs me the most is that, yet another spoiler, he p

I was recently bored and watched, after years of avoiding it, The Traitor (2008), with Don Cheadle as a terrorist ... or not so-terrorist. The movie was pretty bad (there's the real spoiler!). In that movie, which I just check the da

Very fun review from a guy developing some wonderful software to install needed proprietary apps outside of your phone without using the official Google Play client (so you can use adb sideload to load directly on your phone, maybe like me

I have been lazy, but I am trying to figure out how to set up an IRC bouncer for different respective projects specifically with this in mind. I already emailed you. Thanks for the encouragement.

Some of us need tooling because we do not even know what to learn, or where to start. Again, this on me. I listened to Wiegley talk, and wanted to get involved. I looked into one weekend, but did not follow up. I need to stay committed.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. This nice, but I have screwed around with open source for a long time. So, things like: > Ref: The "Tips" Appendix in the Emacs Lisp Reference. Example Novice (not me in this case): How d

The problem is, and I think in the case of Github he makes his rationale plain and clear: > I don’t think it would be right for Emacs to use github.com. I don’t even think it is right for ENSIME to use github, but I’m scared of moving in

So there ought to be a new generation of leadership in the Emacs maintainer community. Ironically, he is a Haskeller. I thought this was covered on HN before, because people were enthusiastic or concerned depending on how you look at it.

I saw him talk in my locale when I grew up to much fanfare. As a youth I was more conservative. But even then, when I thought I liked him, he was pressed by more liberal students of the local college about covert action in Cambodia, or ano

I have time for that: I exercise, I read. The problem is I cannot schedule in the stuff that is hard where I need progress. Let's say I must understand Shannon's perfect secrecy, which I do abstractly, but these 3 quiz questions I

It is hard not to like him. But as a recovering linguist (not the programming kind), I find him strangely approachable. I wish I had his code and programming abilities. He seems like such an interesting guy. Every once in a while Perl6 co

This example is hilarious, granted, but not even the one I truly worry about. I work in a lax multi-national corporate environment, to be vague. These extensions, especially with religiously conservative adults, is of limited concern. I am

I see others asking for advice. I am skeptical and embarassed to ask here, but I feel like many like-minded lurkers are here. So I think this follow-up on M4v3R's inquiry is worth a shot. I have multiple study interests. Many of the

If you look at the code it just adds monster names to the modeline buffer.

I am not sure whether you are speaking hypothetically about your racial background from the way you phrase that sentence. But my God are are you brave for using that handle on HN, sir.

Same is true of Egypt as well, but I presumed that WhatsApp checks and knows when telcos were just blocking degrading their service in generally, not specifically for encryption. Quite ironically, I wonder if the Saudis remember Moxie at al

I do not dispute this. However, it adds all dependenices and dynamic loaded libraries (or static?) in most cases. So bundling applications to dupe users is increasingly easy. I guess it just appearances. Perhaps it has always been this easy

And here I was thinking a fun first project would be a socat client with self-signed certs for remote access. The more I want to learn about smart phone development and ecosystem, the more offputting it gets by the year. But yeah, use our P

Well, that is my problem. I want such things to exist, but I am not sure how they are controlled. The emphasis is on my lack of knowledge, not lack of tooling. Many of them are rapidly iterating and docs are so-so, despite xdg-app (nee Flat

What I am really excited and curious about with regards to this technology is how it will be used in malware. As Linux increases in usage (year of the desktop jokes aside), I think this will be clever to host an application or stack the use

While on the topic, how many here actually run alternative SSH systems in their day to day? There is so much talk of Erlang and BEAM. I was wondering, would it not be interesting to run the Erlang SSH server and client in some personal usa

I appreciate your commentary, but how is linking to a query with Google and all of its real-time tracking of users across all its real estate helping anybody? Why support them if not CMU? https://duckduckgo.com/html/?q
