With a googled Android device (Gapps installed, or default AOSP) I cannot screen mirror to anything but Chromecast. Back with de-googled I could mirror to my Roku fine (same physical device). This is Defective By Design and I hate it.

Someone asked why RCF was not made sooner as it is not particularly special. I think it's because it cost about $50k in dev payroll (4 designs over 2 years- & this is not SF rates). Good software is not a fun hobby project, shipping is a grind and someone has to pay for it!

People who said that JavaScript wasn't a real programming language back in the early 2000s, you're our origin story. You created this monster.

@alcinnz Working with XML is one of those things I have to do occasionally, and deliberately try to steer clear of when possible

@trinsec They weren't especially accomplished presenters, I think, but it was good. There was a lot of comment about the nature of open-source work, and some great advancements in the menu system and the grid snap system

The real reasons they never say WHY (and so advantage is with them)... (change words like 'Master' ?)... 

@freeschool Excellent points. "Master is a bad word" stems from a rhetorical game (somewhat offensive to those with linguistic inclinations). I suspect the issue is by-and-large American, since we tend to be easily offended these days and linguistically ignorant.

Does anyone know if the "master" issue has caught on outside of the US, besides in those places that are just inheriting the tech cares of the US?

Since the 80s, I have been told that LISP was obsolete. Now LISP dialects are more popular than Pascal. Clojure and Emacs Lisp have more repositories than Visual Basic.

@newt @icedquinn @meowski Thanks. I'm not in the habit of hunting down anyone's financial records (which reminds me... I still need to do my taxes... *sigh*), but readable articles are good. Yeah, looks like the "Google is bad" philosophy is put to the test for Mozilla fans

suddenly I have all kinds of "mairix" stuff interrupting my workflow. It's in org and it's in Gnus. What in the world is this?

Difference from Mount seems to be the use of a map instead of namespaces (I'm not sure what this means), and that Clip has better parallel system support and async between components. Looks like Juxt has made another good product -- but I don't think I have any pain points on the things it addresses. Shall I stick with Mount for my full-stack web-apps? github.com/juxt/clip#compariso

"Master" is not a racist word. Does this need to be an unpopular opinion?

What's the adage about "better to use 10 functions on 100 things than 100 functions on 10"? This proves it false. [:humor]
