Vice Q
​I think Edge was overhauled recently. Now it is chromium based?

whitehat middleman
​edge's backend is chromium too

breaktheloop
​Xah, what source code written by someone else have you become very familiar with? Emacs? Some open source project? What was your motivation for studying that source code?

breaktheloop
​Microsoft Surface is pretty good hardware

Vice Q
​What do you think about the Windows Subsystem for Linux?

beetx5
​hello xah

Louis Brauer
​Do you consider Golang a complete replacement for C or is C still worth learning to create free and open software?

beetx5
​i know you don't like the unix but its definitely easer to set a programming environment on linux than windows

nuudul
​hi xah

Wassim Keiser Mehmood
​Hi Xah! Why did you switch from Adv2 Cherry Browns to Silent Reds? And why do you prefer it?

nuudul
​lmao

breaktheloop
​@Wassim Keiser Mehmood Xah prefers reds because it requires the least amount of force compared to overcoming the bump. He prefers the tiny benefit of finger health over the perceptible bump feeling

breaktheloop
​Linear is the least resistance so that's why Xah prefers red switches over blue and brown

Liokardo

Louis Brauer
​But C is standardized with many implementations while Go is controlled by the one evil company.

vfen

Liokardo
​@Wassim Keiser Mehmood so that at least his hands don't get completely ruined, decided to pay. Right? @Xah Lee

Louis Brauer
​so right, thanks @Xah Lee !

Liokardo
​@Xah Lee you know of Gateron Clear switch? 35 grams!

Vice Q
​Well, I believe none of the languages that are as established as C++ are going away. Like QWERTY layout did not go away. We are stuck with legacy cruft.
