the fact that n-gate's takes often aren't any better than the things it's making fun of is part of why it's fun to read

n-gate is extremely consistent in using insulting yet unfunny pun names, the most egregious being "webshit" for "website" that and hating rust are the author's only two sins

people suggesting everything should be rewritten in a hot new programming language that they don't know well enough to see the limits of is a phenomenon that long predates rust maybe i just don't read enough hacker news comments to appreciate the joke

anyone that suggests rewriting something in another language who isn't also intimiately familiar with the code base in question is someone you should never listen to

yeah like I’ve been trying to bootstrap some modern quality-of-life stuff on Irix and the dependency trees for real software aren’t actually that wide like curl with many optional features enabled might have on the order of one dozen dependencies
|
# ? Nov 5, 2019 18:33 |
|
no it's just an unavoidable fact of life that every time you update a dependency it'll pull in more transitive dependencies than the previous version. also writing code rather than using a small library with a million deps is impossible

Notorious b.s.d. posted:what are you using for a toolchain yeah it’s fine for C since nothing requires C11, only C99 for C++ though I tried the sgi.sh GCC 8.2 and couldn’t seem to build CMake with it so I’m looking at what it’ll take to make clang+lld happen; it turns out that might actually be the easiest, if I can figure out what about the ELF files lld emits is crashing Irix’s runtime loader then I’ll just need to add mips-sgi-elf-n64 as a recognized target tuple and everything should just work

This problem has been solved for years, and yet no platforms implement it: K-Means Clustering https://towardsdatascience.com/understanding-k-means-cluster... The property "interesting" is an individual decision. A forum like HN could implement K-Means Clustering instead of having dang madly moderating stuff. Over time, those HN users interested in "technologically interesting stuff" would aggregate together, and generally only see posts that are "voted up" by others in their cluster.
