@Tami ich würde mir wünschen, wir würden bei Wissenslücken viel mehr den #LuckyTenThousand-Ansatz verfolgen...

Freude darüber, dem Gegenüber etwas vermitteln zu können, anstatt sich darüber zu profilieren, dass man es schon weiß.

@fraterrisus #xkcd1053 all the way.

#paramore is amazing, I also missed out on them until a couple years ago when, of all places, I got hooked by the video game #RockBand

That said - have you experienced the joys of #Metric? https://www.ilovemetric.com/

Paramore: That's What You Get [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

@matthewreedbaker you know, I've only ever heard to their self titled record from '92, and I bounced off it as too chaotic, I didn't understand what they were doing with the chaos/noise (this was over a decade ago) or why the album was in such high regard in some circles.

But at this post's prompting , I'm digging a first listen of Orange now, I'm in the right headspace, and christ they must have been insane live. Thanks for the nudge to revisit! #xkcd1053

@matthewreedbaker

Oooh. I know later Billy Bragg stuff, like Mermaid Avenue.

I've never listened to this one, I'll give it a go now.

Thanks for the prompt. #xkcd1053

I ask a lot of questions, possibly more than the average person around my age. I really appreciate those people in my life who answer them, plus all the followup questions.

TIL about "pv", it's like cat(1) but prints progress reports to stderr, plus some other neat stuff like progress reports for other processes' fds if you have access #TodaysLucky10000 #xkcd1053
Open Source is a double-edged sword. It is a betrayal and a watering-down of Free Software ideology, but it is also a Free Software double agent.

Each day, another poster on Medium discovers that "true Open Source" has been "lost", without realizing that what they heard was "Open Source", but what they wanted was Free Software.

It's easy to be smug toward them, but I think it's better to be happy. Less "told you so" and "get off my lawn", and more "You're one of today's lucky 10'000!" #xkcd1053

I think their cries are testament to the pro-Free Software strategy of Open Source working. How do we gently introduce them to the rest of "true Open Source", a.k.a. Free Software?

... and get them off Medium?
@blobyoumu I know what ReactOS is. What is the thing? 😀

If you just discovered ReactOS, I am happy for you ( #xkcd1053 ). It's a really impressive project, even in light of it remaining in alpha stage for the foreseeable future.

I cannot but admire a person who sees something that looks
insurmountable, just keeps at it for 20 years, and still enjoys it and looks to the future. That's the hacker we need.
