api call girl posted:http://boycottsystemd.org quote:Ultimately, systemd's parasitism is symbolic of something more than systemd itself. It shows a radical shift in thinking by the Linux community. Not necessarily a positive one, either. One that is vehemently postmodern, monolithic, heavily desktop-oriented, choice-limiting, isolationist, reinvents the flat tire, and just a huge anti-pattern in general. If your goal is to pander to the lowest common denominator, so be it. truly the derrida of software for initializing processes

sometimes i think id like to use a tiling wm because i end up tiling everything in normal wms, then i go look at tiling wms and there literally isnt one that doesnt require setting up a config. why would you want some sensible default keybindings to put some windows a screen when you can learn a whole dsl and dependency ecosystem to have a clock

Subjunctive posted:no, this is from long before we did PGO on Linux. it was mostly from breaking things out into more shared libraries, and sometimes from "making compilation options consistent with distro preferences". or taking out the symbol-trimming custom linker script because it interfered with their usual debug system packaging. or such. i remember pitching my college roommate a linux distro/crazy infrastructure that did live PGO on almost everything with p2p optimization distribution, like at any given time some subset of your system packages were doing pgo based on your actual usage (with dumb stochastic bs), your results were distributed and matched with others based on system and usage profiles, so youd also be pulling new builds, verifying them and profiling them against your best all the time. i dont remember if pgo was the acronym of choice back then i was on pills, had just taken advanced compilers, and had a bootstrap installed gentoo. a real fuckwit

evol262 posted:linux thread, not the "hip editor right now that actually sucks and nobody will care about in a year thread". go dig up a textmate thread from 4 years ago to rehash all the reasons why ${editor_of_the_moment} will never be as glorious as emacs or vim. linux is better without sublime text. hmmm its almost as if successful ideas of textmate carried on in sublime text, and now ones from st are influencing a new gen of middleweight editors also st is like 6 years old now, itll prob get usurped by one of the open source clones soon but its not exactly a flash in the pan vim is a language for interacting with editors that happens to have a reference implementation
