Is this a joke?

I thought it was. But apparently it’s actually useful for some people.

What language can’t GitHub syntax highlight?

The 10k can pay dividends in PR alone, and will attract more developers to apply for job openings.

It’s just short for “user;” “User System Resources” is probably a backronym.

Storage (and transfer and processing) has only ever gotten cheaper, but okay.

Mass posting US propaganda seems to be this new account’s raison d‘être.

Right, so you’ve got nothing to back it up. Sure, 1990s, let’s get you back to bed.

Go isn’t a scripting language, and it isn’t a system language either, despite what Wikipedia currently says. To be a system language, a language should support assembly language and shouldn’t require an embedded garbage collector. And if you’re going to make a compiled language anyway, why not make it capable of system work? Go is a platypus that’s popular with devops for some reason—probably Google’s clout in the industry.

Why would you say that Perl “can do so much more” than Python? That assertion sounds indefensible.

That does seem to be just one, maybe two small files, and no dependencies. And a built in map() function.

Neither of them seem to be a single file, and both seem to have several dependencies, at least that’s the case with the Homebrew versions.

perl might be on all your systems. It’s kind-of a legacy, but still actively developed. It’s not a great language: it looks like bash scripting on steroids. But if you just need to write some small scripts with a language more powerful than awk or bash, it does the job. If perl isn’t on all of your systems already, then I would choose a better scripting language.

Yeah… quoting these bullshit media ratings sites isn’t bolstering your case.

Oh. I figured it was some government body.

I guess everyone in the UK knows what “EE” is, but I have no idea.

There’s no guessing what will catch the world by storm. At a party once, Bram Cohen tried to get me interested in his ideas for a a peer-to-peer protocol, and I thought nothing of it.

Imagine your platform being too toxic for even the World Bank’s propaganda.

This is my sticky note app. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Edit to add: It appears that the “mt76” Wi-Fi 6 driver is open source:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_open-source_wireless_drivers#Status

Pardon my ignorance, but what Linux device driver(s) does one use for the Wi-Fi 6 11ax 4T4R Mini PCIe Module (AW7915-NP1)? I’ve been under the (hopefully false) impression that open source drivers don’t exist for Wi-Fi modules beyond the 802.11n (A.K.A. Wi-Fi 4) standard.

Edit to add:
Maybe the driver really is open source? I’m not familiar with Linux kernel/driver foo, so I’m not really sure, but this doesn’t look like a binary blob to me: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt7915
The code seems to be under the ISC license, which I’ve never encountered before, but it seems to me an open source license.

True, this is not a Linux-specific app. Please keep this in mind, OP.

The fact that Framework makes nice laptops is orthogonal to anything I’ve said. I might buy one some day. I’m not “dissing” Framework in particular over other capitalist laptop makers. My only specific criticism is in their trawling for free labor from their fan base.
