@leah Not a string, but I had to think of the flexible regex delimiters in many languages now.

I've not heard from DropBox since I last used it in 2014, unless I forgot some sync job on some host (unlikely) - but I've been getting "your account is nearly full" mails for about two weeks now. Weird.

Every time I read about people being happy with emacs I kinda want to try it again, but then I remember all the times I gave up on day 2. Guess this will never work out unless I am somehow forced to use it on a daily basis, e.g. if my team wrote only Lisp.

As a software developer I find the actors' and writers' strike somewhat curious.

Imagine most important software was done in one region of one country and all developers were organized in one union and the machine could stand still, just like that. It's kinda bizarre.

Also of course I applaud them standing up to the hypercapitalism that is Hollywood and the big streaming services, but that doesn't make me better at not being able to imagine this, because you can substitute most professions for software developers, with some exceptions.

Seen in a code comment: "Thankfully, we can do this with the power of C++ templates"

Well, author, you might be thankful but I can assure you I am not.

if your networking docs focus on FTP active/passive as a prime example for firewall rules, it鈥檚 time to update them for this century.
