I’ll take the first two of those but home alone 2 is… Well, a lot worse than I remembered

Instructions unclear. Dick stuck in cumulonimbus

Otter than it’d be without the sock, would be older then.

I set up a nix os for a friend once. Forgot the master password. It’s been 5 years. Oh well.

Ok I’ll try this again without calling you a c***: saying that X is is not responsible fo Y does not mean that you think that Y is good. In this case, nearly everyone in the US govt (regardless of party affiliation) has supported arms sales to Israel for as long as they’ve held the position. The fact that you think me pointing this out is equivalent to excusing or approving it surprises me, but then many single-issue individuals can get irrationally passionate on those issues, so I shouldn’t have been as surprised as I was I suppose.

Pray tell, how is strengthening unions & workers rights, forgiving student loans, not ‘left’? SMH

A tabula rasa? In my file system?

Yeah but that’s because you see it in archaic contexts. How do you feel about ‘thou art tall’?

Of course

Ah, but it’s not unrelated, see, because now the cache invalidation logic that you hacked together to fix it last time isn’t triggering when it should, because you were using that condition as a hack based on the assumption that code wouldn’t be doing what it’s now doing. You’re gonna have to rewrite that entire bit in a more principled way. I think I lost track of the metaphor a bit here.

I remember Linus saying in an interview that he’d only really been involved in git for the first 6 months or so and that the other devs had managed it without him since then. This makes sense - Linus’s creations aren’t successful because he’s the only person who understands them, they’re successful because there are so many other collaborators on them.

Were nonetheless equally mean!

I think he’s struggled with new compelling characters tbh. Only one of his good films isn’t a character from the Ali G show. But give him enough time… I certainly wouldn’t write him off entirely. We’ll see.

Under any circumstances for anything

I wouldn’t take an eternity of existence under any circumstances for anything. Please just let me fucking die when I’m done.

You never quit Emacs. You just… die…

National trust is in favour of peeing in the garden. Can be good for some plants!

First time I ever heard what that symbol was for! Nice to know
