Interesting thought, I'll keep my eyes open. Funny, because Rust is rather a side-note/example in Theo's post...

Can somebody tell me why this is "[flagged]"? I don't get it...

The porter obviously just copied Zig's elevator-pitch from the website instead of describing Zig in his own words. The latter would be more helpful to the community.

LISP doesn't... but Racket and Clojure are already less puristic.

Code generation requires an additional build step. One thing I like about Go is that it feels like a scripting language (go run). I guess writing a numeric library, like Python's NumPy, is a lot more convenient using generics. But I&#x

It's interesting how "angle brackets vs. square brackets" is such an issue for many Go programmers commenting on the generics proposals (including earlier ones). Maybe it is just revealing where those programmers are coming f

Please also consider looking at the other picture of the same conference: https://suckless.org/conferences/2017/ "But Hitler also started his movement in the Bierkeller!!!1" ;-)

I've been using dwm since 2010 and and still don't consider changing that. I use st at home (qterminal at work). dwm in combination with dmenu, slstatus, and slock runs fast on every machine with minimal resources and doesn't

No, that's not common. I guess that their humor is beyond edgy for most people. A related page is cat-v.org, which contains similar edgy jokes (see "Herrensystem 9" http://glenda.cat-v.org/gallery/ )

I smirked a bit when I saw that picture, because the camo trousers and the bald heads look a bit edgy in that context. But hiking with torches is nothing strange here, at least not in Switzerland. We often do this in the winter, for example

After ~15 years in IT, I found a position where I can work with very few interruptions. I always thought that I'm unable to focus for the whole working day because of the many interruptions. However, I figured out that 4-5 hours of hig

Thanks for pointing this out! rcctl was added for OpenBSD 5.7, the manpage says. Absolute OpenBSD 2nd edition is older than that. I'll update accordingly!

Reminds me a bit of the prank they played at AT&T by sending reverse form feeds to the printer, so that the victim had to insert the paper afresh.

I recently also suffered through some horrors with Cups. A new version was released, and old drivers didn't work together with it. And the manufacturer (Samsung, which sold its printer business to HP) didn't provide updated driver
