Negative. I am a meat popsicle.

I hate reading code like this. It means that there is a bunch of object or global state that could be getting modified by anything all over the place that I can't see just by looking at the method. In other words, if you say you understand this method, it is because you are making assumptions about other code that might be wrong.
I'll take a 30 line pure function over a web of methods changing member state every time.
One thing to note about using forks is that they have no chance of being on corporate software whitelists, while firefox does. For that reason, adding to firefox numbers is potentially important. I've already seen companies wanting to only allow chrome/edge/safari (even while they officially support firefox ..)
Some of it is good and some of it is bad.
For instance it basically says that installing arch manually to learn is pointless and you should spend that time taking an operating systems class. This is confusing two completely different kinds of knowledge as well as time investments 2 or 3 orders of magnitude apart.
The site is also presenting opinions but using language that makes it sound like it is presenting facts.
Overall, I don't think it's a great site. It basically says "there are many differing opinions on various topics, but mine are the correct ones and you should treat me as an authority because I made a website."
Not a fan/10
I use fish. I really like that it is already configured to be a comfortable and usable interactive shell out of the box.
The differences from posix are generally easier to remember on the fish side imo (like if statements) and you generally only encounter them when you write scripts.
You can also write scripts in bash if you want and there is a nice tool if you need to put environment variables into shell from a bash script (https://github.com/edc/bass)
I loath it and the only thing I would think if someone called me it is that they have an uncomfortable fixation on my height. I think at the very best it is obnoxious.
Why do you make the conscious decision to not eat meat/animal products?
Simply, I don't need them and I don't feel it is right to contribute to climate change/ecosystem destruction/animal cruelty for my own convenience
Do you have negative feelings towards those who raise their own animals for food, such as those who raise chickens for eggs or cattle for milk, and otherwise treat the animals ethically?
There are still downsides to small agriculture such as sustainability and food production per resource usage. To directly answer the question, I don't have negative feelings towards anyone based solely on their diet. I have negative feelings towards the animal ag industries which deliberately hide information, lie about reality, and lobby the government to deceive people into not understanding the consequences or reality of their decisions. I also don't think positive change has to be all or nothing. Even just doing Meatless Monday has a positive impact, and making perfect the enemy of good just slows progress.
When did you choose to switch to a vegan lifestyle, what (if any) was the “catalyst”?
For a long time I ate vegan at home but would go to restaurants without anything I felt I could ethically eat in order to get along with people. I remember very distinctly the last time I ate meat at a restaurant and thinking "enough is enough"
What are some challenges that you have dealt with when it comes to this lifestyle?
I have missed out on social occasions and friends I otherwise would have enjoyed because they thought accommodating me when choosing restaurants was too burdensome.
Why do you believe there is a continued stigma around veganism in many physical/internet communities?
It is not only diet. People are jerks to anyone that lives differently than them that they think they can get away with being jerks to. Basically it is acceptable to be jerks to vegans, therefore people are. Someday that will change, probably.
Hollow Knight is pretty different than metroid games and I'm not sure I'd directly compare them. I'm the only person I know that doesn't like Hollow Knight and it seems like the departures it makes from the classic metroidvania formula that put me off it are part of the reason other people like it

I think rust has good ideas and may even become the default systems language in the mid-term. I find it irritating that there is a very vocal subset of rust proponents that tend to insist that every project in every language needs to be rewritten in rust immediately. I suspect that is also why other people are down on rust.
