Of course, I use make most of the time, but I'm used to having a .o file right next to my .c file.

There is a comment like this any time TikTok comes up, but I find it hard to believe that (to exaggerate) everything has and will always be the same. Doesn't the fact that being on a personal phone that children have access to most of

I frequently see meson (and other tools like cmake) using build directories, which is something I don't like. Is there a reason to this that I am not thinking of (besides being able to "rm -rf" everything instead of doing so

I'd say a language is bad at error handling if it doesn't let you check if a procedure failed or not. What C does it that it compiles even if you ignore this, which is a different issue. Java, Rust, etc. wouldn't compile if

I am probably being naive, but I'd like to see the banning of TikTok as a precedence case for the banning of other abusive networks in the future, whatever country they may operate from.

Atom even allows specifying an Email address: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4287#section-3.2.3 So if someone wants to contact you, they can do so directly.

At the very least it would be nice if languages could separate the interface from weird (I guess the idea is that they should be fun?) library names.

Doesn't GCC support more architectures than LLVM? Wasn't that the issue a while back with the Rust dependency that a cryptography module for Python introduced?

Dash is weird because it is both a list library and and bundles macros. Conventional Emacs Lisp does not use anaphoric macros, and to my knowledge the ideomacy their usage is generally contested. Threading macros and stuff like if-let &amp

I'm here because I have a bad habbit of visiting the same sites when I am bored. Sometimes I like to make provocative statments, and anticipate people disagreeing with me which causes a small dopamine rush. For example, I might see you

Indirectly, the issue is rather that they will ban you if you don't use their client, even if it comes at no cost to them (setting aside losing the ability to run spyware on your device). It doesn't need to be a tty client, it co

But that is a matter of licensing, not design (which I underdtand to be things like the capability system or the micro kernel). I'd prefer a Copyleft license too, but 1. it is not a suprise that Google is not interested in that 2. even

I don't know, my impression from a few years ago is that a lot of the worst, most exhausting people from Twitter got persuaded to use Mastodon, ironically on the grounds that it should do better job at moderation. Mix this with people

I don't get what that has to do with my point. Arch leans into terminal enthusiasm, so it is natural that by default all they offer is a tty to install the distribution. But as most other distributions prove, this is not necessary.
