I was also reminded of a recent user and some threads they posted, for example: https://discuss.online/post/32930214

Haiku comes to mind

That doesn’t make the source code proprietary or non-open, it just means it isn’t a community driven project.

Slackware is still around, no past tense. What makes you think it was closed source?

You are correct, I should have said there was an atomic clock out the window that the walker looked out at.

Because of relativistic effects, from your point of view on the train you would just walk forward. But you would notice a strange effect while the trains were accelerating: your atomically synchronized wristwatch the clock you can see out the window has slowed down and stopped counting time. So it seems that your journey to the front of the train takes no time at all.

From someone standing on the side of the tracks catching a glimpse of you and the train as you whizz by, the front of the train is moving at light speed. You’re at the back of the train completely frozen still, unable to move forward because the front of the train is moving away at light speed.

Weird things happen when you’re talking about the limits of physical reality.

Sound is air vibration

Sound is not exclusive to air, it can be generalized to vibrations in any media. Whale song and dolphin echolocation are certainly sounds, and we’re almost always talking about them propagating in water rather than air.

which has to travel from one place to the next

No, that isn’t how sound works. In air this would be a description of wind, not sound.

just transfer kinetic energy to the adjacenct atom

This is actually a good description of how sound waves propagate.

since it’s JIT, it’s actually faster than Python and Java in most cases.

Java is JIT’d too, and Python can be depending on which runtime you deploy.

Yup, the arugula/balsamic combo is the same way I’ve enjoyed pear pizza. Delicious.

Pear works well on white pizza

What has changed about RPN or calculators in the past year?

Become a Red Hat employee and you get one for free.

(genuinely, I know this sounds like a joke)

You can check the release notes to be sure, but generally you can just perform the update and move on with life. Backing up your data is always a smart precaution.

“We” haven’t moved anywhere, I just chimed in for the first time with my interpretation of what the other person was talking about. Jeez.

GitHub is a git hosting provider, but it also has its own service software for all the peripherals - organizations, issues, pull requests, all the user account management stuff, etc. AFAIK those parts are mostly/all proprietary.

Generate the binaries during test execution from known (version controlled) inputs, plaintext files and things. Don’t check binaries into source control, especially not intentionally corrupt ones that other maintainers and observers don’t know what they may contain.

That sounds like someone who topped out with highschool level programming tried to implement a hash algorithm.

Beehaw defederated from a lot of other major instances.
