that is weird that they call it a Wiki when it is not a wiki any more - you have to submit changes for approval
38··on Why top posting has won (2018)
I agree of course, it will be relevant forever, no point in adding a date
38··on Why top posting has won (2018)
100%. It's the most important piece of information. How anyone can forget to include it floors me
38··on Why top posting has won (2018)
Jesus what a terrible blog. The post is not dated at all, which in my opinion is the single most important piece of information. Also no mobile layout, so I have to manually scroll like a typewriter to read each line. What decade are we in?

38··on Too Much Go Misdirection
> What I would like is for my image decoding function to notice that the io.Reader it has been given is in fact a bytes.Reader so we can skip the copy.

What a terrible idea. If you want bytes.reader, then use that in the function signature, or better yet just a byte slice. It should have been a red flag when your solution involves the unsafe package

38··on MinC Is Not Cygwin
as a former long time cygwin user, my advice is dump cygwin ASAP. its not really good for anything anymore. the only reason I ever used it was for a C compiler, but Zig does that way better than Cygwin ever did. also honestly I don't even use C anymore unless I need to, I write most stuff in Go, but both Go and Zig can cross compile. finally I am using windows terminal and PowerShell
38··on AI Horseless Carriages
> let my boss garry know that my daughter woke up with the flu and that I won't be able to come in to the office today. Use no more than one line for the entire email body. Make it friendly but really concise. Don't worry about punctuation or capitalization. Sign off with “Pete” or “pete” and not “Best Regards, Pete” and certainly not “Love, Pete”

this is fucking insane, just write it yourself at this point
