      I remember using some rust tui program a lot to get an annoying thing to work like connect to my uni’s propreitery vpn tho might have been something different.

      That thing worked even on freebsd. It was very well done too just worked out the box and didn’t use much memory and so on. Simply reliable code.

      So I looked at the github repo to see who made it and it was 20 people with lgbtq flag or anime or both as their pfp.

    This is inaccurate. I could also talk about the war in heaven or Horus heresy.

    Funny that the pride flag is on the left when the most impressive Linux devs I’ve ever met all did their best work while caged and plugged in thigh highs but… Whatever

        I mean, most impressive devs might be a stretch, but if you hang out at any alternative hacker / Linux event… Let’s say I have felt like the most conservative and straight dude in the room on more than one occasion

          To be fair, “that I ever met” is doing some lifting there. Kinky trans&nb programmers are a minority of a minority of a minority. But a few of the best programmers I’ve met over my years while doing low-level C and C++ systems work just happened to be in that demographic… And wow: they were REALLY good at what they did. One was the kind of person who earned the right to wear a clip-on fluffy tail to the office, and no one would talk shit about. Different times, different places, but they were all the kind of people who would make competent management sweat about the low bus factor.

        The company I keep tends to be quite private, but there’s no shortage of “it” pronouned puppygirls doing significant work in Linux spaces; god bless them. Nix has a lot for some reason… Also cybersec communities.

          Ok, I suppose I misunderstood your comment. I thought it was about the actual lead kernel developers and not all Linux-related devs in general and thought to myself “Well, Torvalds is a married man and most other maintainers I’ve ever seen didn’t look that out of the ordinary”.

          Again, not to take away anything from anybody, but maybe that explains my surprise to that comment.

    I will punch any guy if he starts talking to me about Postgres

      I hate these kind of memes, the punchline is always just ‘girls stupid, boys interesting’ every fucking time.

      Literal kindergarten behavior.

        Well, the punchline of this one is that they think the Linux logo is Club Penguin, but yeah, the original (if it ever existed on its own) is bad.

    I recognize “Clean Code” in there. Isn’t that the programming best practices book that seriously recommends programmers to have a hard limit of three-four sentences per function, or something like that?

      It has one or two stupid recommendations. It’s still a good book overall. Look at it as a statement of opinion, not as a fact.
