Yes, Linux/m68k mostly lived out-of-tree for a while (with bits and pieces of it landing upstream); from its inception in 1993 until it was (iirc) fully merged in 1996. Being the first non-x86 port, a lot of things originated there. T

Your replies seem to be focused in the reaction to his defense of Minsky. Without defending what he said, you're right, it's disgusting how that was reported on compared to what he actually said. However, (according to Bradley Ku

Using `-:` to build long-options on top of the short-option-only `getopts` builtin is a great hack.

I had a headset mic that worked fine as long as I plugged it directly in to my laptop. Then one day I plugged it in to the port on my laptop's dock, instead of the plug on the laptop itself. In the dock's port it was suddenly so

I don't know about deterministic, but there's something to the flakiness. The old stuff was byzantine, but it was decades old, which meant that it had decades of people beating on it, figuring out all the ways that it could flake,
