  • Rust coreutils has 17,000 commits and is 12 years old.

  • I also made some dumb number entering shenanigans for https://faxyourballs.com/

    My favorite was suggested by a friend: the radial button selection for every digit, but with digit “10” sorted up at the top.

    I should go add some more…

  • Quit rewriting history, those were absolutely not lowball milestones.

    If Mr. Musk were somehow to increase the value of Tesla to $650 billion — a figure many experts would contend is laughably impossible and would make Tesla one of the five largest companies in the United States, based on current valuations — his stock award could be worth as much as $55 billion

    That is a quote from this contemporary article: https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/23/teslas-pay-deal-to-keep-elon-musk-all-or-nothing.html

  • The reason his last pay package of 50 billion was awarded to him is because he met the milestones for that. It was a similar deal to this one where they set top end milestones that everyone felt were ridiculous and they’d never hit them. Mostly stock targets IIRC.

  • Yes and no. Like yes, that can be true. But a lot of tools don’t handle commas correctly no matter how you escape them.

  • The only problem with that plan is that there is no way to know that a Klansman would be in the image until you open it.

  • I don’t make financial decisions, so I can’t support FOSS from the corp coffers directly.

    Have you asked?

  • I too fixed performance problems in that repo a few years back and did a write up on it - https://jackson.dev/post/rust-coreutils-dd/

    I'm glad this project is getting some more attention, maybe even getting funding from Ubuntu since they're using it? Last time I touched it most of the code was still pretty clearly written by Rust beginners and non-systems programmers so it likely had/has many such issues to uncover. Ubuntu putting it into their distro should hopefully get more experienced (and actually paid!) devs taking a closer look.

  • Only if you want to.

  • So you’re also contributing to the declining viewership that these channels are complaining about. They make no money off of your watch time so to them it is the same as no view at all.

  • I wrote a full rant about this yesterday as I have been trying to decide on licensing for a large OSS project that I've been developing. Licensing and funding are inextricably linked, so I wanted to make the right decision up front.

  • And use what instead?

  • You still think it's sketchy?

    I've explained that it's perfectly normal, that it's just someone who wants to use Unicode in their domain name (in this case because they probably speak a non-ascii based language), and most good web clients should be showing that link as the Unicode characters. Firefox for example shows that as the proper Unicode directly.

    It literally is just a way for non-english speakers to have a domain name in their native language.

  • Are you talking about the “xn—“ domain name? Because FYI that’s just a punycode domain. It’s pretty commonly used for non-ascii domains. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punycode

    The article itself is only available over Tor or I2P anyways though.

  • I have started, and ended, many bar chats over this. I am a firm believer in the cube rule above all other starch based food classification systems.
