Yes, alas C++ is fun, but very quirky. Perhaps too much. For big (new) projects I wouldn't recommend it. People are trying to fix it but it's hard and without breaking old features I don't think it will be possible to make it better and improve it even more.

I entirely agree. It all depends on context, preferences, goal and probably other things.
I found the article interesting even though I don't entirely agree with all of it!
I love the Nintendo DS. Slips right into your pocket, can play anywhere, a huge catalog of games, easy to add an R4 to it. It can even play GBA games!
Well I mean if you want to pay 99$ each year, yes
I created a discord server for an open source project of mine, but grew to dislike it. It got spammed multiple times, people are off topic and talking about their lives in channels that aren't for that, and so I started pushing the community toward GitHub discussions.
Discord isn't searchable, nor archivable, nor public, but GitHub is (I'm aware of another conflict with Microsoft for some people, but to me this is the easiest solution to get contributors and have an easy CI setup).
I haven't had much success yet, but I'm slowly shutting down all links to the discord and will let it die (for outside contributors at least). I might keep it to stay in touch with a few developers, to refine issues and prepare migrations that aren't ready to be turned into public discussions/ issues / pull requests.
I use a plain 34 keys layout based on qwerty for letters, comma/dot/semicolon. The numpad and symbols layers are handcrafted so that every symbol is easy to reach, it's also optimize to type things like <- and -> easily
The reMarkable runs on Linux too! It's an eink paper tablet
Thanks!
I won't lie, I went with a Lisp like syntax because it was the easiest one to parse, so that I could focus on the funny bits like the compiler and virtual machine.
Fine thanks! This might be another reason for me to finally switch to an iPhone
I understand the philosophy of not wanting to transfer your rights, but I don't understand what's bad about contributing to a project and having your code given to the community (as-in copyright transfer to the organisation). Would this be because the org/owner can just start selling the code or is there something that I'm missing?
I haven't followed, what's up with that instance?
I mounted a disk of a server in rescue mode, since I needed to extract everything (the provider didn't have the option to dump everything as a zip). Then installed an FTP server, added a user/pass, it worked.
But I couldn't access the files of the original disk, even though I could see them. So I just chgrp/chown the original files, since the disk was just "mounted" in the rescue disk /mnt, I thought it was alright (at the time I thought permissions were volatile, stored separately from the files). I could now download the entire disk, yay!
Upon booting the original disk again, a bunch of errors: shell not starting, tools not running, because they were owned by user and not root...
Well we reinstalled all the server from scratch that day.
