Kirchhoff's abstraction law

> The algebraic sum of leaks in a network of abstractions in implementation is zero.

> We’ll have to wait and see how well this strategy works for RISC-V, because instruction fusion requires the fused instructions to be adjacent. Compilers will have to arrange instructions to make this possible.

Cries in Itanium.

@Keltounet @hywan I watched my mother progressively (and completely) lose the ability to use her iMac during her final decade because Apple kept f*cking around with the Mac OS X user interface, the way Mail worked, the colour of the window maximize/minimize buttons, and stuff that probably looked trivial to a 30-something UI designer but was deeply disruptive to an 80 something with impaired memory. And by losing that access, she lost touch with friends (via email).

I should write a huge text about how is a great language and is getting better all the time.
Just to dilute the stream of negativity constantly appearing on feeds.

Maybe *you* should too.

Gosh, I sometimes hate that the LSPs are a thing now. People really like to dunk on and its "toolchain" for LSP deficiencies.

Come on, people, this stuff is barely mature by itself.

And you really can do without it.

software licensing 

Just spotted some blurb on the net and it made me cringe in pain.

> Some people, when they first encounter REUSE, run into a couple of things that are very different from what they are used to. They miss the long legal blurbs at the tops of files, miss the COPYING/LICENSE file in the root of the repository, think that .license files clutter the directory, or find it very strange that even insignificant non-code files get licensing headers.

:scremcat:

And they are fucking right! Software licensing^W lawyering is bullshit and basically a cancer.

My retirement plan is entering postsingularity before running out of funds :ablobblastoff:
