To clone the DMCA censored "youtube-dl" from the DMCA repo:
git clone -n https://github.com/github/dmca.git youtube-dl && cd youtube-dl && git fetch origin 416da574ec0df3388f652e44f7fe71b1e3a4701f && git checkout FETCH_HEAD

The RIAA issued GitHub a takedown notice for "youtube-dl" via their DMCA repo, which of course GitHub instantly complied with without protest.
Now a security bug GitHub refused to fix has been used to push the DMCA censored code into the DMCA repo itself.
Let the recursive censorship games begin!

Also, can we make a point of always calling it Microsoft #GitHub from now on please? Thanks.

People, everyone needs to read the whole parent thread. This is important.
Copyright is encroaching on everything from right-to-repair do the right to communicate freely; #youtubedl situation is just the latest of a long string of abuses.
We need to reform copyright.

My mirror of the #youtubedl repo is now up – big thanks to @polarisfm for the initial mirror.
Let's keep ytdl alive and kicking! 😈

RIAA DMCA MICROSOFT GIT YOUTUBE COPYRIGHT that's you that's what you sound like.
If the EFF doesn't have a lawsuit lined up already they will before Monday. Stop supporting labels that joined the RIAA or its Canadian counterpart. Blacklist artists who refuse to jump ship. Make their complicity public, instead of shouting at each other. There is a clear wrong side of this.

scfg now has 4 implementations: C, Go, Python and Rust. Thanks for contributing an implementation, @PeterSanchez and @viralstitch!
I'm very sorry for your issue but...
Can I say I'm very excited to see those books? I can't wait to get my copy!

Il problema, Stefano, è su cosa e come.
Nella mia città c'è la fiera internazionale del tartufo bianco.
E noi chiudiamo le scuole?
Cioè... boh!
C vs JS... or maybe not.
Uhm... you seem a bit confused.
I'm not sure why you find my toot condescending. You said that people would get angry for your statement and I clarified that I think you are wrong about this.
People who know well both languages, will not be angry for your statement. They will just deduce you don't know well either of the two.
Also, I don't know how a picture or a bio in my profile could count as arguments about my programming skills more than what I wrote in the toot itself. If I had lied in the toot, why I should be honest in the bio (or the picture?)
Anyway, I didn't lie.
Here is my website: http://www.tesio.it
Here is my operating system (in C): http://jehanne.io
Here is my github account https://github.com/Shamar
You won't find much about JavaScript in my code, as it's mostly developed for my employer, but I'm the goto guy when people cannot solve a problem in JavaScript (or other languages) on multi-millions banking projects.
(but again, you can trust my words or not... and there's no way you could even know if this account is actually owned by the author of those sites...)
This obviously produce a bias in my perception: the vast majority of the problems I have to fix (after months wasted by other developers trying to fix or workaround them) are actually due to the dumbness of JavaScript design and it's impact on developers culture.
If you knew a little bit more about JS, I think I should not even name the garbage collector of IE: you would already know about the left-pad scandal of NPM.
In any case, there's nothing wrong into ignoring something and you shouldn't feel ashamed.
But I'd would suggest you to study a bit more about Informatics before comparing programming languages and framework.
Otherwise, any random internet guy could use your ignorance against you.
Good luck!

Not angry... it just shows you do not know either well.
I professionally program in both since 20 years (and in several other languages) and JavaScript is way worse than C. Actually it's the worse language ever conceived.

google, privacy, e-mail, from 
Google started editing people's e-mails in GSuite, replacing links with a link through google.com:
https://mobile.twitter.com/sneakdotberlin/status/1317734739537653760
https://twitter.com/tblodt/status/1317875714981416962?s=20
This means that Google will track a click on a link *in e-mail* even if you're using an external client.
I am *guessing* this is under the pretext of phishing protection, but it actually *creates* additional phishing risk for text-only clients, since now all links are google.com links.
