Why not embed HAProxy?
Javascript has the requirement of backwards compatibility. The limitation is not technical. It's disingenuous to suggest it's so simple to replace these things or it's extremely naive.
Look at the recent HTTP redirect article for example. Something as simple as redirects have been implemented incorrectly for a long time. Browser vendors are well aware of it, but they cannot change the behavior because it will break every existing site that expects the broken behavior.
You should be more impressed with the things that last 20 years, not embarrassed. It means they were actually engineered well enough to be a good general solution.
Another possible way to interpret the 'ashamed' statement is that tinco is simply saying we should be trying harder to move forward when we are using such old technologies with such warts. Why can't we get rid of the warts? We should try harder. Perhaps this is what tinco is saying? I think at least equally plausible to the naive position you're projecting onto tinco...that it's 'simple' to replace these things.
Kudos to Neovim for making the effort! It is certainly appreciated.
The top sellers of mining hardware that I could find on Google (Butterfly Labs, Advanced Miners, Cointerra) all accept Bitcoin for payment.
Are you referring to some group upstream of the hardware sellers? I'm curious where you're getting this information from...
This is an important point, regardless. Sometimes new projects are started and it's not a matter of switching. Sometimes verbosity, and the things it negatively impacts, are worth switching. That's what.
I'm all for increasing opportunities for underrepresented groups, but don't discount all the passionate, unpaid work people provide to the open source community!
When using OSS libraries on commercial products I've found the need to fix bugs or other problems and have sent pull requests with those changes afterwards. Granted not all clients approve this, but I wouldn't describe it as "few-to-no other companies" that allow it.
To be explicit about why, for others, this means your shell will search for executables in a 'bin' sub directory of whatever directory you happen to be in BEFORE it searches your normal path.
This allows for common commands like 'ls' to be executed from ./bin, if they're present, instead of /bin (from your system).
Once you've done this you've opened yourself up to an attack where you download a zip from the internet, extract it, cd into the directory and type 'ls' and you may have potentially executed something from that zip which you didn't intend to do.
tldr - relative paths in your $PATH is a bad idea.
