Fortnite is not 'here to stay', at least, not as a mainstream product. It occupies the same position in the market that Minecraft did 6 or 7 years ago for pre-teens. In time, the bulk of Fortnite players will start going to partie

I find tmux makes less sense within a tiling window manager because then you have two contexts effectively providing the same functions (or three, if you use vim :split (or four, if you use tilix)).

Rust programs tend to be more stable, more efficient, and more highly parallelized than equivalents written in other languages by developers of the same quality.

I'm not opposed to the adoption of this CoC. I think it's a positive for the Linux community, and I think it will be helpful (so long as Linus changes his attitude too). I would not like to see this ideological wedge driven any de

I agree with this. I'm certainly not averse to dropping a :-) or emoji equivalent when appropriate. But emoji party hats every time a PR is merged, or READMEs covered with emoji, or worse of all, CLIs that use emoji in them are annoyin

In broad terms, I'd agree with this adage - and to bring us back to my original point, I'd argue that 'as simply as possible' is in some circumstances not understandable to non-developers and that's ok .
