@alice@lgbtqia.space the hard part is the trivial requirement. Weird - I have, at two different times, had n I-beam dropped on each hand. Despite this I have only broken my left ankle.

@mttaggart@infosec.exchange after being yelled at by people about how ‘guys’ is gender neutral I started using “gentlebeings” back in the 80’s (I don’t back down that easily). It seems to be better understood these days with the rise of nerd culture, but back then it was off-beat.
@burnoutqueen@todon.nl @FinalGirl@blackqueer.life at my age it’s James Byrd Jr. that I remember vividly.
@altomare@oldbytes.space using them had my eyes crossing after a few hours. But the results were excellent.
@Edmonds_Scanner@universeodon.com so far they don’t seem to be able to help.
@Lana@beige.party it’s really not radical.
@dhinojosa@mastodon.social well that feint lasted a very short time.
You can’t baton your way out of satire. You can’t gas a punchline. And you absolutely cannot maintain authority while tear-gassing people over a rubber dick.
@Darkasvim@fosstodon.org every single year!
@DrEleanorJanega@mastodon.world well we very much want you here (I do at least ;)
@lothcat@mastodon.social yeah, the 1929 crash was complicated but he was a big part of the problem. There were no heros.
@cliffle@hachyderm.io this was always my argument against the clean coder zealots. Subroutines are for code sharing in my brain.
@babe@glitterkitten.co.uk excellent work!
@GezThePez@mastodon.scot @SethRudy@c18.masto.host well the xenomorphs. Of course

@raven@fedi.raventhemaker.com I’d say 1989. The shell is not a programming language but a collection of useful functions. I used to have a list curated from many years of our team maintaining about 50k lines of the stuff which we later replaced with about half that in python. Not having a solid test framework was at the top and bottom of that list. It is very useful for stuff, but like Perl you need to limit it for maintainability.
