mwenge··on Show HN: Disassembling a C64 Game from Scratch: Jeff Minter's Gridrunner
Hold my hand as I learn about C64 internals and 6502 assembly language while attempting to disassemble Jeff Minter's "best week of work I've ever done": the 1982 Commodore 64 classic, Gridrunner.

This is what a society looks like.
mwenge··on Ask HN: How do I find an open source project to contribute to?
The most important thing is to find a project that has the bandwidth to process your contributions. If you see dangling pull requests or patches that have never been reviewed, move along. Even if a project passes this smell test, the only way to be sure that it has maintainers willing to devote some measure of time to providing feedback on your work is to submit one or two small fixes and see how they fare.
mwenge··on Leaving Mozilla
Christians of all denominations actively proselytise - it's a core part of being a Christian, spreading the 'good news'. This distinguishes the Christian ethos from most other mainstream religions which have a weak or non-existent missionary instinct.

So no, it's not unusual at all for a Christian to highlight the fact. From the point of view of a Christian in an increasingly secular world it probably feels more necessary than ever.

P.S. I am a Christian by birth but not vocation.

mwenge··on Apple Removes Shadow DOM from Safari
It's an in-joke taking aim at Blink's stated 2014 goal of optimizing for mobile performance at the expense of supporting things like CSS Regions. Shadow DOM is also the subject of some controversy, as Blink and Mozilla seem intent on pressing ahead with implementing it without full buy-in from all vendors or even the WG.
