@jmoiron @chimeracoder Kraftwerk is a genre, right? Most serious examples I can think of are derivatives (industrial, punk, grunge, probably several dozen overly classified EDM subgenres).

@jmoiron I used to second guess myself with `ln` but someone once told me that it behaves exactly the same as `cp` wrt argument count and order and all at once this was never an issue again. https://t.co/IovNPFCp3a
@jmoiron @bryanl @copyconstruct it's a real danger Bryan, vigilance is required to extricate such frivolous buffoonery before it accumulates
@jmoiron @copyconstruct I use this comment style often (https://t.co/MyBNbpw15m), down to using the pronoun "we"; I visualize it as walking the reader (or someone looking over my shoulder) through my own mental model of the program so they can infer intent when fixing bugs in the real co...
@jmoiron @xaprb That sounds really great. The problem with databases is that they are too stateful, and this solves that issue gracefully.
@jmoiron Fixing trust problems in npm involves overcoming network effects on huge networks (see: metcalf's law); They are intractable without heavy tooling, and not the kind that turns your massively multiplayer snippet repos into a birds nest with graphviz. re: https://t.co/FjKnqZmfSd ...
@jmoiron tsbs (https://t.co/VY3NUMAqT5) is at least a common platform to build off of, but it doesn't resemble normal infrastructure metric traffic (read or write) at all
@jmoiron @108 there you go Tim, I put you over the line.
@jmoiron Surely we've all learned this already from gofmt. An authoritative tool improves consistency, and consistency is a fundamental and underrated metric of readability. https://t.co/QLkV5nXsea
@jmoiron @amontalenti @PreetamJinka "you can roll your own in a few dozen lines of C if that's what you want to do" classic orange site right there
@jmoiron I've been using lftp (via sftp/ssh) for ~15 years and I just learned that "mirror" does what I have always wished "mget -d" did.
@jmoiron @chimeracoder There were some TV spots. It might be an interesting angle of cord cutting, the civic implications. The only other coverage that made its way to me was the NYT editorial board review of them, which my phone pulled into my feed.
@jmoiron @copyconstruct play yaml games, win yaml prizes
@jmoiron @amontalenti FP is computation, C is computers.
@jmoiron @elithrar yet another way shadow of the colossus shaped modern gaming
@jmoiron @chimeracoder every picture of that guy has an asshole in it
@jmoiron RT @tef_ebooks: 0. if it's hard to read from top to bottom, it's probably bad

@jmoiron @buckwilson Why not comic sans
@jmoiron If we've decided we're going to actually start using the Go template language, then we need to add macros to it.
@jmoiron @PreetamJinka I just think it's a weird thing, a lot of us in software (myself included) are on board with breaking things down and shipping small and often, but we will obsess over meticulous/painstaking craftsmanship for our posessions and then decry the sorry state of software...
@jmoiron @PreetamJinka I'm saying they probably weren't. Your computer, camera, OS, phone, car; even simpler items like furniture, I bet most of them took longer than a month to design; certainly to deliver.
@jmoiron @PreetamJinka How many of the products you use every day that you love were delivered to customers within a month?
