Exactly. I’ve seen so much data destroyed silently deep in some bioinformatics pipeline due to this that I’ve just become an anti CSV advocate.
Use literally anything else that doesn’t need out of band “I’m using this dialect” information that has to match to prevent data loss.
No:
Just user Zarr or so for array data. A table with more than 200 rows isn’t ”human readable” anyway.
I literally got banned from the “awfulsystems” Lemmy instance for suggesting that Firefox isn’t horrible. No exaggeration, there was nothing else to my comment than a polite suggestion that Firefox is pretty good actually.
If that ban isn’t driven by hate, I don’t want to see how real hate looks like.
This shows how unhinged the whole recent hate on Firefox is. Turning off GenAI is literally one single setting AND Mozilla is doing things infinitely better than others (e.g. the translation feature is completely local, and having a chatbot in the sidebar is opt-in)
Yeah, and these mods were so good that they became their own games.
If you want to do that, you’re a game developer. So license (or develop) an engine, and also pay for all the non-permissively licensed other code you use.
Congratulations, you’re now on a solid base for charging money for your game.
I think the “controversy” is just tribalism. I’ve never once witnessed a case of any of the negative adjectives thrown at the Rust community. They’ve always taken exceedingly fair and good-faith approaches to discussing any critique of the language.
Their snark is reserved for the weird “anti-woke” crowd that hates Rust for some reason.
I just use nushell’s builtins instead of wrangling with IFS and bash idiosyncrasies. It’s been years since I’ve corrupted data by parsing text wrong.
But even if someone doesn’t want that: apart from using it in legacy scripts, grep is just a strictly less useful ripgrep these days, no?
Mu. Your question reveals that you didn’t read the article. Try doing that, then you know which failed assumption led to your question making no sense.
I’d love that. On Reddit, I used to see dozens of upvoted comments by people who only read and believed the headline, all appearing before the first comment written by someone who had read the actual article.
Sure, in isolation, but we were talking and I’ve been on the pro-Firefox side the whole time!
Exactly, thus Firefox.
No Firefox, no forks
Mozilla is literally the only browser vendor that ever gave a fuck about use privacy.
And the only one that has a nonprofit fountain structure that is designed to keep it that way.
Or do you know something I don’t?
No, why would they?
I’ve been using en (not em) dashes for like 20 years.
They’re used more often in German typography, and I’ve only seen em dashes without spaces around them which is ugly, so I stuck with them.
It’s obviously option-dash for en dashes and option-shift-dash for em dashes on MacOS keyboards.
You don’t even need to learn that, you just think what the most logical way to type them would be, try it once, are correct, and know how to do it.
People (on Linux & MacOS) are fucking lazy. I’ve been using topographically correct quotes, apostrophes and dashes since forever. It takes a minute to learn which key + Opt/AltGr does em/en dashes.
Of course you’re right about Windows, which for some inexplicable reason ships with braindead useless keyboard layouts. I don’t blame its users for not seeking out better keyboard layouts, that’s much more involved than finding the right key combination.
This is my most-listened-to track in 2025!
It’s just so catchy!
Same for my partner’s old gaming PC: she used Windows 10 until recently, and Bluetooth as well as the steam overlay didn’t work properly.
Now on Bazzite they do.
