quote:But that's what happens when there is no incentive for people to do the parts of programming that aren't fun. Fixing bugs isn't fun; going through the bug list isn't fun; but rewriting everything from scratch is fun (because "this time it will be done right", ha ha) and so that's what happens, over and over again. I unironically enjoy sifting through completely garbage code and fixing bugs or making small incremental improvements.

Suspicious Dish posted:yeah the unfortunate thing is that the fsf owns the copyrights on gcc, so they still have the upper hand there, but could always fork from GPLv3 if necessary This shouldn't matter, unless the new fork intentionally wants to make non-free changes, in which case "lol gently caress off."

But I don't think fsf or gnu need to die. There are plenty of not poo poo people in the free software movement. Just sucks that the loudest and grossest are in positions of power in these orgs. I think it's easier to go through a bit of reform then it is to try and upheave the entire movement.

I like debian. If you just want security releases then follow stable. If you need up to date packages on the regular for a desktop run testing.

Joe Mama Poonana posted:you loonicks users r actually missing out on the impressive multiprocessing, multithreading features of haiku And just like haiku, it looks good but not practical for doing day to day computing on. I spin up haiku in a vm every now and then because I'm really into the whole look and interface, everything is consistent. But I sort of like having a modern web browser, a decent text editor and access to a bunch of languages and runtimes.

quote:So how exactly do you expect someone to review this monstrosity ? This is a lovely response and I don't know why any one would defend it. It takes no extra effort to have some basic level of courtesy and professionallism, especially when someone is trying to contribute to your project. hobbesmaster posted:the .patch file is 620kb But this is certainly something, I'd be pretty annoyed if a PR like this dropped on my lap without any warning. Maybe should have included in the email that you acknowledge the amount of work involved in reviewing this and what the process what be/how to make it easier.
