Those are not 4 right angles, but 2 right angles and 2 angles of 270 degrees

it has legs, but just one pair, which is hilarious

My guess is the pattern makes it harder for predators to spot the worm

oh I mixed up the points, I meant to say CB is 0 in the end

funny Interpretation: in the complex plane, the imaginary axis is orthogonal to the real axis. so instead of the edge marked with i (AC), imagine an edge of length 1 orthogonal to that edge. It would be identical to AB, so AC CB is 0.

The guy is German, and the German language traditionally uses generic masculine pronouns, although that has become a big political issue in the past years. Some new gender-neutral forms have developed, but some of them have even been banned by the “center”-right-wing clowns in two state governments, and it’s all a bit of a mess. The guy probably thoght “they” in English is a similarly experimental concept, and while it’s still dumb and he should just try to be as inclusive as possible, it’s probably not a matter of him purposefully excluding women from the documentation.

Are people here reading the whole mastodon thread?

it is 200% okay to bully them into submission

Sounds rather toxic, and also counterproductive.

Why would this little bash script that does nothing extraordinary need constant updates? Some pieces of software might just be complete as they are.

Classic, never fix anything, just change to <my preferred distro>, you wouldnt have experienced any problems, ever

I used to like the idea of nixos because it felt “tidy” to configure everything centrally. However that tidyness is achieved by adding an extra layer which just replicates the configuration options of every program. If there is a bug in that layer or something is just not implemented, either you have to learn the whole inernals of nixos and nixpkgs, for which there is no real documentation, or you have to resort to doing things imperatively again, which is hard because of the opacity of the generated system and also defeats the whole purpose. So basically, you are completely dependent on nixos developers for things you could have easily done yourself on arch.
