ragebait used to be believable 🚬

couldn’t tell you, never used either.

well, that’s not entirely true. i self host Forgejo and Woodpecker, which i think (might be wrong here, especially because Forgejo does have its own CI/CD now) is what Codeberg offers. anyway, it’s been OK for the automatic deployments of my little projects. pipeline configuration was flexible and straightforward enough to surprise me in a good way.

came here to say exactly this.

also y’all, consider donating to Codeberg if you have an account there, they’ve been getting hit nonstop the last week or so by chuds.

i liked their takes a lot, they didn’t hesitate to call out fossbro bullshit.

they need a break though. no way around it.

aughhhhhh here’s your upvote. git out.

see, i could maybe agree with this if it weren’t for the amazing work from R4L that already has been and continues to be done, despite subsystems maintainers putting their foot down and going “Not In My Back Yard, bucko!”. how many more maintainers does R4L have to lose before Linus realizes he might need to take a stance as a project lead?

ah, fair enough. i guess that’s kind of the thing with potential dogwhistles. if you know, you know.

i scrolled half a wiki page to link to… facts.

we don’t live in the 80s though. we live in contemporary times where things have different now meanings to what they did 40 years ago. meanings that might be influenced by recent happenings. hope that helps!

why they feel it’s Linus’ responsibility to make Rust happen in the kernel

who does? are you talking about marcan? because as far as i can see, what they’re asking for is for linus to make a stance and actually say whether R4L is a thing they want or not. because linus’ attitude so far has been “let’s wait and see” which hasn’t been all that helpful, as said in the blog post.

knowing where “thin blue line” comes from, you don’t see anything wrong with a maintainer randomly dropping it on the mailing list?

fuck gatekeepers. the linux kernel doesn’t deserve new, talented people bringing fresh, useful and modern approaches to the project; their time and effort is only wasted there. i know it’s not right, but part of me wishes linux rots and something better takes its place.

bitterness aside, i hope marcan gets the rest he needs. i wish him the best.

what would stop you from writing a quick proof of concept in each language to see how they feel?

i don’t think every developer hosts an actively transphobic discord full of dogpiling channers but i might be wrong on this one bestie

Surprised he finds time to work on anything after spending so much of it being a complete dipshit online or falsely pinning his own bugs on other projects. Good for him.

Eh, why would you? They’re fancy looking but if what you use works for you that’s about it.

A little nondeterminism during compilation is fun!

So is drinking bleach, or so I’ve heard.

Mostly agree with the premise of this post, but you don’t necessarily need to use a language that causes segfaults if you look at it wrong (It Is Undefined Behavior™) to “go back to your roots” (though from what I’ve seen you’ve been enjoying C a lot OP, so that’s good too), any language works when you don’t have The Business breathing down your neck.

Write a little VM in Rust, or C#. Hell, try doing a SPA in pure JS without npm (or any other package manager) or any frameworks or even libraries, only native custom components, it’s surprisingly fun.

I fucking hate this, thanks OP

i want to boil people like this alive

in minecraft of course
