To Escape The Shackles Of The Old Forums, We Must Reject The Tribal Negativity He Endorsed

i went digging through the article and all i could find was an assertion that sometimes you need to be able to handle garbage filenames that can't be represented by a unicode string. why? who knows. maybe because they enjoy eating garbage. that sounds like something a mercurial user would enjoy

posix says that filenames are just arbitrary strings of bytes as a garbage way of "supporting" systems that predate utf-8 and also don't store what encoding the filenames are encoded with anywhere. for some reason this makes linux users think that they actually should create files with names that are just arbitrary bytes and not utf-8.

standards compliant unicode casefolding is loving hilarious in general, try running property-based testing on something that casefolds and compares for equality and weep at all the bugs you'll find - the turkish dotless i is just the beginning, there's a lot more exciting stuff to be found

for example, did you know that casefolding canonicalizes to NFD form, which you surely aren't using anywhere else?

try passing the result around various filesystems then

thanks, thread, for teaching me that i in fact did NOT know how to compare strings properly

considering myself lucky that i never had the chance to step on that particular rake

imo just do the float approach and gleefully point out to the user that 0.2 != 0.200000000001. gently caress you user.

should have stuck with ascii

even if, being shaggar, you do not see the point of supporting other languages, ascii is not even sufficient to represent english as written by americans

even windows-1252 doesn’t get there

I've seen people do this all in the GLSL shader, impressive. I do not understand any of it, most of that being because the code is really terrible.

A lot of poo poo that goes wrong in cloud and containerization is caused by people trying to re-invent networking fundamentals and crashing into the realization that you cant really gently caress with layer 3.

Azure networking is a good example where it's just a total shitshow because some brain surgeon decided that the concept of a "subnet" is dumb, what would you need that for, what a dumb dumb poo poo baby idea

this is why i don't think i could be an infrastructure person. networking is a whole different skillset that i have no idea how to learn and internalize. computers have addresses? and packets get sent to them or maybe not sent to them?

You'd at least have to have the ability to open/read from those arbitrary byte files, at which point you've already opened Pandora's box and gently caress it might as well be able to create and write to them.

well it's not really that bad of a concept, a lot of issues stem from scale problems where NAT is mandatory and when nat is mandatory other problems happen
