The code for the peeler is stale, it stopped working three carrot seasons ago, but no one wants to rewrite the PeelerBladeRdge class.

Depends. Generally English, unless they are “directed” to one specific person like the professor who’s gonna grade it. But even then I might go with English anyway.

Oh I also use my language when I’m leaving an important warning to myself in a config file, like “this is needed because X! don’t touch it! If you touch it do Y!”

What kinda question is that? Mobbing the developers out of switch emulation.

The only two options where you and ryujinx and they are both taken out, all the forks are jokes because the developers that had real abilities worked on the main projects.

I’m about to do this to this kernel driver. Certainly broken before, possibly broken after, what’s the worst that could happen

Mine is: I don’t really listen to music

Venetians, Sicilian, Lombardians and Neapolitans are not minorities, it is not an ethnicity, religion or anything. it’s literally “people that live in X” and X is a region from Italy, literally one of the most industrialized countries in the world. It’s like saying “new yorkers are a minority”. Moreover, even if they were, literally nothing is happening to them.

Source: I’m venetian and my grandfather was lombardian. I know my people.

Also, I won’t give you something to hang on, so I won’t say anything for sure. But I’m pretty sure most of the people in that list are in this same position.

Home is pretty useful actually, just like end. Ins can go fuck itself

Fun fact: when learning some instruments (e.g. bowed instruments) you also number the fingers starting from your index (because you don’t play with the thumb)

This research challenges the standard argument that the mere existence of a product implies positive welfare for its users.

I know this probably means something I don’t understand, but it feels so stupid… Like, what about asbestos?

I’m average. Because that’s most likely

What you are looking for is called specialization.

It is currently unstable and incomplete, which means you can activate it by adding the macros #![feature(specialization)] and #![allow(incomplete_features)] at the beginning of the file. But you have no guarantee that it will work the same way on the next version of rust.

There! Now try to make a doubly linked list

The idea is that having “many eyes” on the code, the vulnerabilities should be found and solved more readily. BUT… of course this is true only for big projects which actually do have many contributors.

Viceversa, while skilled (or high budget) attackers can still find vulnerabilities in proprietary software (think of how people still crack consoles and games), good-intentioned people cannot contribute to weed out these vulnerabilities.

But most important of all, it’s trust. There is no way to be sure that a proprietary piece of software is actually as secure or respectful of privacy as it claims to be. Whatsapp claims to have end to end encryption, but you can’t tell if it’s truly secure or if it has a backdoor or some other spyware in it. For OSS instead you can always read the code yourself, or trust the many eyes that did.

Some months ago it came out that as soon as windows 11 is boot up for the first time, it starts contacting services like Amazon and steam (allowing for tracking) before even asking for license and privacy agreement. The same thing could not happen in Linux because the code is open.

Also, by using proprietary software from big corporations you give them power over your infrastructure and your work, and possibly on other people interacting with you. Which is definitely not poggers.
