Yup, I am effectively locked out of a few email addresses I rarely used as well. I haven’t found a solution. I just moved everything important off of Google and would never trust them with anything at all—ever.

GNU Make is pretty good about telling you why things are happening with -d If you can get away with it use -rR to skip builtins, it makes the output of -d much nicer. I usually end up running make with -rRd or -rRp when I want to inspect th

Honestly, I think a good search engine would hardcode the first two results to be the official website for "thing" and the wikipedia page for "thing" if they exist. Then it can list out the organic results. Just that cha

You're right. I've been complaining about Google results for more than a decade. Things keep getting worse. People used to dismiss my allegations, but I'm seeing more people noticing now days.

Does your keyboard have a num pad? If so, then you're likely extending your arm to to far, bending your wrist at an odd angle, and relying on your shoulder to bear the weight of your arm when you use your mouse.

I’m running the Yamamoto Mitsuharu version of Emacs.app so maybe it is patched to ignore (menu-bar-mode 0). I recall having my menu bar disappear on some other version of Emacs.app in the past, but I think it was from setting menu-bar-lines

I guess I didn't get the memo. I don't see what was wrong with `window-system' as it allowed stuff like `(eq window-system 'mac)' and `(memq window-system '(mac ns x))' which is nice if you're using d

May I suggest (unless window-system (menu-bar-mode 0)) That way the menu is only disabled in the terminal. Beginners might find the menu useful when running a GUI on Windows or Linux—I certainly don't mind the menu on macOS as

As I have been saying for years: make is the worst build system, except for all the others.

The corollary: reasonable people avoid GPL code at all costs.

Okay, I'll admit I just want it to be more like Plan 9. sysctl, ioctl, fcntl, sockets, could all have a file based interface. Maybe it isn't any better.

Wow. Name calling, especially such wholly inappropriate and inflammatory name calling, is way outside the norms here on HN. With brand ambassadors like yourself is there any wonder why I and many others want nothing to do with GNU or the FS

It doesn't have to be procfs, but it would be nice to have a /proc like interface.

Lack of GNU stuff would be a selling point.

macOS would definitely benefit from adding support for jails and a whole host other features like procfs, unionfs, bindfs, tmpfs, etc.

Having just built Motif and mwm (the Motif window manager) I can safely say that this looks nothing like Motif or CDE. https://twitter.com/haltingproblems/status/14306551043491389...

I’d love to take a stab at it. I think there are ways to monetize it that don’t involve advertising (at least enough to cover salaries and infrastructure). The only reason I haven’t is I don’t have access to the initial capital.

I do have SIP disabled for DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and a handful of other things, but macOS still says /usr/bin/command is on a read-only file system. [edit] Not hard to remount root as writable $ sudo mount -uw / Pa

Okay, my bad. I just tried a pre-Meson version of Mesa and you're right. I thought that Mako was some Meson extension...I didn't really look into it much. I was just annoyed when the build broke and Meson printed a message that lo

Hi, I was recently trying to make some improvements to the build for XQuartz, which in turn was so I could make some changes to XQuartz and fix some issues with recent macOS changes too. While I made some progress, it took much longer than
