    Tired of moralizing about the way people write software when we should be moralizing about the power relations that determine how people write software

    I am a Greek citizen who has lived in the UK since 1985. On Brexit day I want to say: I have no fondness for the EU – it destroyed my country. I'm not going to paint my face blue and gold. But I loathe much more the little England nationalism that mobilizes the Brexit narrative.

    ok, i've got an idea that i think will "solve" a lot of software licensing "problems" it's called the "you're only allowed to use this if you're willing to pirate it license" to use it, create a file called "COPYING.txt" in your project that contains the text "no"

    People always ask me how do you balance being the best programmer in the world with being incredibly popular and attractive? And I always tell them, you know, it’s not easy

    Yeah rigorous formatting rules ignore the fact that formatting can (and should) have semantic value.

    Automatic formatting rules consistently make actual code worse! Casing rules and common indentation are literally all you need

    My real hot take: you do need some formatting consensus, but nothing more than Rust has had since before 1.0: - what a normal indentation is - what casing is used for each kind of name Nothing else! Beyond that every decision should be made contextually by the code author

    Not criticizing the rust compiler team here, this is standard practice across open source projects and I just don’t understand the obsession with “consistent formatting” - who cares??

    All of this so that I don’t include new lines some rule has decided are unnecessary??

    When I want to make a small addition to a big project setting up the tool chain to run your linter locally is an enormous barrier to entry

    I still don’t understand why everyone blocks their CI on unimportant formatting lints

    everyone: think about what you're building. if your software could be used to further authoritarian regimes programmer: uhhh i guess a convenience library that turns accessing a local file from 7 lines to 1 line could be used by them
