Sadistic architecture?

We shouldn’t stoop to their level and make assumptions about their thought process

Are you claiming that it’s wrong to speculate about why someone acts racist? That it might be due to hate?

Oh wow, interesting

I remember that blowing up!

That’s a thought I did not need in my head.

hehe

smoke 'em if you got 'em

Not sure if any Suse would fit in there. I’d say more Arch, Debian, Slackware (is that a thing anymore?), Gentoo, Linux From Scratch if you count that as a distro.

What does LSP stand for?

Nooooo!!! (Actually I’ve never tried Emacs)

Always happy to help people move away from MS

Between Elixir and Erlang. Erlang is what’s used in telecom right? Is Elixir as well? Is Elixir like a new improved Erlang? I’ve heard so much about Elixir recently.

You have piqued my interest, I’ve recently gotten back into programming (I do “devops” for work) and don’t really consider myself a programmer, but I find languages fascinating. I was lucky enough to join a study group on compiler design with an Apache project leader and while it was over my head, I learned a lot and enjoyed it.

(I know I could look this up, but enjoying the conversation :)

Oh nice! I didn’t see that before.

This sounds amazing. One mode you can be a cat stuck in a house with 3 other cats that don’t get along. You have to try to drop a deuce without getting attacked, you have to mark territory without making your “owner” upset about peeing in the house.

Elixir runs on the Erlang vm? What is the difference between the two?

You could do this easily with Crystal and Kemal.

I think this is where “compartmentalization” comes in. Similar in concept to how you are forced to wall off sadness when a loved one dies so that you can continue to live your life, I think there are mentally competent right wingers, but they wall off the logic and reasoning so that it applies only to machines. They do this because if those ideas of logic and reason get beyond the wall/outside of the compartment, the meaning of their lives falls apart.

The easiest way to think about it that is kinda right, and what got me into is “It’s like compiled Ruby and nearly as fast as C”.

Crystal is a language with syntax modeled after Ruby, which is considered one of the most human friendly languages (it’s way easier to understand than C and most others). Ruby and Crystal are “object oriented”. Like if you wanted to know what I had for lunch using Crystal you’d ask me, an “object” last_meal = kool_newt.stomach_contents, as where in C, you’d cut me open and look.

Where Ruby is a dynamically typed (it figures out whether things are Strings or Arrays, etc on the fly as needed, handy but very slow) scripting language, Crystal is statically typed, so you have to be conscious of types while you code. And where with ruby you end up with a script, Crystal code is compiled into a binary.

Where Ruby is good for small/medium websites with a modest traffic, or for prototyping ideas in an easy language, or making smaller utilities, Crystal can handle massive traffic, and make fast production level apps and tools without the difficulty of C or Java.

I’m using Crystal and Kemal (Kemal is akin to Ruby’s Sinatra) for web dev, and trying to make my own DNS utils (I want dnsip, not a fan of drill, dig, and other tools).

If you know Ruby, Crystal is an easy jump.
