Personally I am living for the next time I hang out with one of my "friends". I don't really know them all that well, but they seem interested in getting together and playing factorio with me. Just remember you don't have to have long term, grand reasons for sticking around.

Isolation has the connotation of a single thing or individual being... Isolated from the group. Atomization is meant to evoke a sense of the more widespread impact on society. After all, if something only impacts a small subset it's considered... "Isolated"

That being said, atomization is definitely not a new term to describe this...

Are atanmodernism and cscmodernism a thing?

History and good explanations of what was changed and why is incredibly useful for being able to determine if something is a bug, a feature, and why something was written a particular way.

I'm not super stringent on commit style, but it absolutely helps to structure commit messages, especially in larger projects where they're being worked on piecemeal.

2fa isn't a panacea and won't solve every problem. It does help though. Why do you think supply chain integrity isn't something they care about?

Phoronix comments are always such a mixed bag. I get that something still running after 20 years is cool and all, but it's not necessarily a good thing.

Personally, I usually take issue with the missing institutional knowledge on such projects. It doesn't matter if it runs, it matters that we're running something we can fix if it explodes.

I recently built some stuff with the latest gcc compiler that was written in c89, but still compiled. That's pretty sweet and very convenient for us, but the flags and the commands aren't documented at all. So we have to spelunk through ancient scripts to find the right incantations or worse, read the code. Because who needs docs for an internal tool ammirite?

You clearly don't use digital signatures in PDFs
