screen is like tmux, right? So you can split your CLI, open a new window/tab to open more Bash/Vim instances?

satay-sauce

I’ve been on the internet since 1996 or so, and this is the first mention (in English) of Satay. Amazing.

Satay with some mayo is nice as well.

Some good kebab helps too, probably due to the fat and salt, but water over kebab, if you have to choose.

Neocities is now, old man!

I remember Reddit helping to make a kid do his homework.

People kept complaining about “karma farmers”

I remember the “Reddit is just you, me and /u/karmanaut” meme from 2008. He was the original “karma farmer”. It was a problem since the early days due to how they setup Reddit as a system. It just enforced his behaviour.

And lack of trailing comma’s

Someone’s working on a standard! https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-rivest-sexp/

and no possibility of (a lack of) trailing comma’s. Unless you use JSON inside Yaml, you heathens!

Depends on the data structure. If you want to save a table of sorts, you’re getting a bunch of unreadable [[[]]] nonsense.

For flat structures it’s great though.

That lack of trailing comma has been the bane of my existence.

People are working on making S-Expressions a standard: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-rivest-sexp/

Note: This is just a draft, but improvements have been happening since 2023.

I probably won’t like the parentheses, but I think I’ll take it over yaml/json/whateverelse.

YAML is fine if you use a subset (don’t use the advanced features - not like you know those anyway) and use explicit strings (always add " to strings), otherwise things may be cast when you did not intend values to be cast.

Example:

country: NO (Norway) will be cast to country: False, because it’ll cast no (regardless from casing) to false, and yes to true.

country: "NO" should not be cast.

The prosecutor argued that the murder of Shepard was premeditated and driven by greed

McKinney’s girlfriend told police that he had been motivated by anti-gay sentiment but later recanted her statement, saying that she had lied because she thought it would help him.

Price said she had lied to police about McKinney having been provoked by an unwanted sexual advance from Shepard, telling TV journalist Elizabeth Vargas, “I don’t think it was a hate crime at all.”[9][37] Rerucha said, “It was a murder that was once again driven by drugs.”[9]

Doesn’t seem to be a hatecrime. Just a crime against someone that happened to be gay.

Barely related, but in Dutch, it’s called “Informatica”, which is a much better name than “Computer Science”. “Computer Science” is like called Astronomy “Telescope Science”.

people jumped ship to Reddit because it was better.

People jumped ship because Digg turned into complete and utter garbage, and Reddit wasn’t completely awful. It was a weird site though, 100%.

Digg would’ve been fine had they not forced Digg v4 on users.

What’s a good voice-chat alternative then?

Alas it’s not my site (and I think it’s meant to be read on a desktop screen), so I can’t fix it.

No, I called her standard nigh impeccable, which should be the default. Having a dead bug is not “nigh impeccable”.

Which part of my previous comment caused the confusion? Because now I’m confused on why people misunderstand my comment.
