Save a slap for the leap seconds creator.
Or, we could collectively realize time is but an illusion and transcend this silly problem.
Larry Finger, your work has made a significant positive impact on my life and I’m sure many others. Thank you.
Now can you work on a driver to allow communication between the living and the dead?
If Ruby is interesting, check out Crystal, it’s like Ruby but static typed and compiled.
Nate is amazing, he and some of his guests are exactly who I learned this from.
To some degree, fission also, though it has a few other problems like safety and security concerns around nuclear materials, locations of fuels and whether they are in friendly nations, other things the fuels can be used for and all the politics that goes with that, etc.
But we need more than just energy. At some point, regardless of our energy, we are going to destroy Earth’s ecosystems using up other resources, using this energy to mine unsustainably, etc. More energy just means we kill ourselves faster. We should not be looking for more or cleaner energy with which to kill ourselves with, we should be looking to continuity of our species and that requires living sustainably within the bounds of our environment.
True but people need to know to look to the documentation, it’s not something we’re born with. People learn to ride a bike, to drive a car, use their TV, etc without reading much documentation. We should educate people on how to figure things out rather than shame them for not knowing as much as you.
Don’t assume everyone can learn as easily as you can or has a background that would facilitate their grasping of the topic. Here you are casually saying “just read the man page” and referencing gcc, it would take my mom a week of education to get to the point where she’d be able to understand what gcc even is and why it has a man page.
And if you don’t want to help them, ignore the noobs, don’t push them away.
I never understand this line of thought. The amounts of energy we use is never ever going to go down. It just isn’t.
If we don’t develop practical nuclear fusion before our fossil inheritance effectively runs out we sure will. It will also go down following ecological collapse caused by using all that energy. Infinite energy doesn’t make up for a collapsed ecosystem.
For sure! Ya I was happy to find it as letting MS force me into their world was not something I was willing to let happen and I didn’t find another FOSS editor that was appropriate for my needs.
If you like Atom, Pulsar is basically Atom continued under a different name.
I care, and so do many others, it happens to some with empathy when they grow out of their preteen years.
Because if I do, then that proves Gnome is terrible and all the devs should drive off a cliff?
See, this is a good comment. You like KDE more, awesome! Enjoy! Your attitude makes me want to try it again.
If we lost the open source community will have gained.
I find some software annoying too but I’m not 12 so I don’t feel the need to shit on people volunteering their time to make software for people.
Gnome devs seem to just be red hat employees who don’t actually care about making a good DE
But Gnome is a great DE, I’ve used it as a daily driver for personal and at work for many years. I can’t say I have any major complaints. What’s so terrible about Gnome?
I don’t care what people like, I don’t like people shitting on open source projects and dividing the community.
I don’t see Gnome fans brigading KDE threads and circlejerking about KDE being awful and the devs being cunts.
I’m a Gnome user for like 20 years, I don’t prefer KDE but glad it’s there. I never have but would be happy to support KDE and understand any devs being cunts on occasion, I’m sure it’s stressful. I’m glad they are there so I don’t have to use proprietary software.
Check out Pulsar

It’s basically the continuation of Atom. It’s got rough edges though regarding plugins but it’s good enough to allow me to avoid VSCode.
