Considering that it's a stack that uses OpenBSD, my first thought would be Perl, although it's not a language that one could call “modern”, heh. It's included into the base system and has rich libraries for text processing,

No, and never will, Perl 7, on the other hand, is in development[1]. [1]: https://www.perl.com/article/announcing-perl-7/?ref=alian.in...

It does and it's enough for "while". What I do miss sometimes is the repeat-until / do-while loop. You can emulate it with "for" currently, but it's awkward.

We use the alias "unit", like lalaithion has said before, in many projects. It's a bit annoying to declare it in every package though. Hopefully, there'll be an official alias in the future.

The Opportunity rover had a planned mission duration of ~93 Earth days. It went on to serve for ~5,500.

An interesting related question I've always had is what even counts as a contribution. For example, consider the three situations: (a) I open an issue about a feature not working. E.g.: “When I press the button, the app crashes”. (b)

It seems like at a certain level, when a company achieves an unfortunate combination of buttloads of money and incompetent leadership, that company starts to think that it is above puny human concepts like reputation. Compare it with the b

Alec of the YouTube channel Technology Connections has a video[1] about his experience with an E-Ink device on his second channel. He wanted to see if this would improve his productivity, so it's not exactly the same as your question,

Rewind is kind of old news. Now that time YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki received a Free Expression Award from an organisation sponsored by YouTube[1] is more recent and something else completely, ratio-wise. Currently at 56,502 dislikes vs 2

Just as a funny data point, when it turned out that Go's go get command allowed you to run “arbitrary” code during build (not directly, but through gcc and clang's -plugin and -ftplugin features), it was marked as a CVE[1], heh. [

OpenBSD version: https://man.openbsd.org/sysexits.3 . Interestingly enough, it claims that the file first appeared in 4.0BSD as opposed to “somewhere after 4.3BSD”, like the FreeBSD one does.

My message was more about how you don't necessarily need to exclude the date information as opposed to exact variable names. But thanks for the info.

Alternatively, just make it configurable: buildtime="${BUILD_TIME:-$( date -u +%FT%TZ%z )}" # Use $buildtime in your go build command. This will only set the variable buildtime if BUILD_TIME isn't set already. Makin

It's a thing I've often seen on Discord, actually. Otters will often create a “neighbour” server, which is essentially a one big #general channel. Over time, that neighbour server becomes its own thing, while most of the Possums

Especially if those products are developed by a company from Russia, where Cyrillic is used. For me, a Russian myself, this situation is honestly ridiculous.

OP's link provides answers[1] to that question. And in my personal view, they aren't very convincing. The first answer, tedium, is unconvincing, because pretty much anyone with more than a couple of years of experience in softwar

I'd argue, the too-much-syntax threshold has been passed back when destructuring assignments[1] got in. Now you can witness “beautiful” code like: const [,, { name }] = props; and: const { $ } = window; You can kind of r

This might sound like a bit of a weird question, considering that there is an ATOM feed, but is there a way to receive these by E-Mail? The format seems almost perfect for a regular-ish subscription list.

It's a pretty nice infographic! If that company ever thinks of making merch, I think a non-zero amount of people would buy a T-shirt with it, heh.

Tracking is happening. It's the goog after all. As for Chromium-based ones, perhaps the goog thinks that it already knows enough about them?
