Then the question is why bring it up in the first place. If you don't want attention, you avoid these signifiers in public, I'd think?

This always comes up in these discussions, my impression is that there is some kind of a split when it comes to understanding the concept of embarrassment. It is not about the individual judgement of people and being upset is the wrong wor

I don't know, this is mostly instinctual, but my guess is that this is subconsciously associated with the kind of cultural image of an anime enthusiast or furry as socially inept, meagre or generally nerdish.

I have seen it, but I think that "won't you read this?" or "will you learn this language for me?" is just a front for "explain this to me", especially when considering the body language.

I find that there is something inherently suspicious in having a parallel online identity. I respect anonymity, but for some reason people constructing a parallel world and personality online always irritates me.

It is the classical phenomenon of when most people of a distant group are normal, but a minority is peculiar, that you don't notice the normal ones because they are overshadowed by the minority. E.g. when in school, I always remember

OK, but is that viable on a large scale or will only the top 1%-10% be able to make a living. Though to be fair, the current situation probably isn't much better.

Non-free software is just off-topic in official channels, there is no need to interpret malicious intent into it. It is no more difficult to enable nonguix than it is to enable any other repository.

AFAIK that won't install all the necessary dependencies, right? And even if it does, these are installed globally. Guix shell will only make the dependencies visible while the shell is active, and "hide" them again as soon a

I have a number of negative stereotypes associated with Rust and Rust programmers that I am trying to set aside right now and just look at this from a technical perspective. Has the Rust-portability situation been addressed? Or will this

I've been using this for a while, and it works well but it also often redirects me to broken instances, which is not inherently that horrible (most of the time these are just hosted by people in their spare time with spare funds), but

Yeah, that is why it isn't done. I am just pointing out the pointless fact that you could write a cd command that wasn't itself built-in.

No, being a product or a customer stand in no relation to one another. You can be neither, either, or both. If you don't want to be a product, you have to work on that, not on being a better customer.

by daptaq 4y ago
To be fair, you can't deduce "A -> ~B" from "A -> B". You can be the customer and the product.

> cd is a good example of something that has to be a built-in command Theoretically you could also have a cd that would IPC the shell to change the pwd but I guess you could also say that is overengineering.

As I said, "most" of it. Apparently there were bomb threats and people posting pictures from outside "keffalas" residence, which naturally is concerning, but at the same time was against KiwiFarms rules.
