#11 was confusing as hell: this is what worked 'grep -R 'piping' ./place-for-pipers | cut -d: -f2-'

only content no filenames. Need to see the output if it's wrong to baseline what's being asked.

regardless of the true merit of crypto, crypto articles have the tendency to fill the HN comment sections with the most unbearable people.

It's honestly kind of amazing, I never thought a person could be so intellectually condescending and smug while trying to sell you their shit at the same time.

I'm not trying to sell anything. I don't even work in crypto and have never had a full-time job in it. I am not even talking about crypto here whatsoever. The whole point of the article IS to distinguish between "cryptocurrency" and "blockchain".

HN generally views blockchain tech negatively I've found, but I'll leave this here for the inevitable: crypto if a casino and has no real use.

I cancelled all my content subscriptions and I'm back to torrenting. I barely watch anything made my Netflix regardless. I think either Dark or the 3rd season of Stranger Things was the last time. Snyder's SciFi movie wasn't much good either. By now the streaming services are en route to become as terrible as whatever they were set out to replace. Once one of them started heavily advertising their own productions everywhere inside their apps I would've cancelled any remaining subscription at the latest.

> back to torrenting

lots of people have, and we've come now full circle. I wonder if it was inevitable.

I have to say I'm really surprised that I didn't find "fighting CP & terrorism" as the main push for this.

The LTS, long support version and stuff are all confessions of a technical and organisational failures

If you are not able to upgrade your stuff every 2 to 3 years, then you will not be able to upgrade your stuff after 5, 10 or 15 years. After so long time, that untouched pill of cruft will be considered as legacy, built by people gone long ago. It will be a massive project, an entire rebuild/refactor/migration of whatever you have.

What kind of argument is to "upgrade your stuff every 2 to 3 years". What are you upgrading for? If the software runs fine and does it job without issues, what "stuff" is there to upgrade?
