That harmful software page is literally just things uriel hates and likes. How is Perl harmful and Go is better? Miss me with that 10mb binary for 3 lines of code.

Perl is shit because the syntax is awfully complex which means reading it is a bitch and parsing it is even worse. There is a reason they say Perl is "write once, read never".
Ryan Robinson
I do agree I like C's syntax more but I find Perl to be particularly useful for small scripts since it's fast to write in. The syntax isn't as complex as you think, and Go's syntax is atrocious. Whoever thought putting the type of a variable after and not before is a moron, and the error handling system is repetitive and annoying. The only good thing Go has going is the powerful and simple concurrency it provides. Perl 6 is just dogshit though.
Jason Rivera
>Perl is shit i disagree, i like perl because it's easy to script, especially for text manipulation >because the syntax is awfully complex which means reading it is a bitch i can read well-written perl just fine >and parsing it is even worse. that, everyone agrees with: "only perl can parse perl"
Carter Smith
in fact, i'd go to say that perl5 is easier to parse, both by humans and by computers, than c++
Elijah Kelly
Start making text files.
Mason Morales
There's already awk for small text processing scripts. >Whoever thought putting the type of a variable after and not before is a moron Many languages do that. Beats the C syntax: c-faq.com/decl/spiral.anderson.html >the error handling system is repetitive and annoying It forces you to actually think about how to handle every error instead of just have some generic error handler somewhere. And makes the control flow completely clear.
Christopher Phillips
>Miss me with that 10mb binary for 3 lines of code. Bad meme. The reason for the big binary size is simply because Go's compiler builds statically and with debug symbols by default. Stripping alone cuts like a third of the file size.

You suck Pikes dick too much. He went downhill and bought into the cuck meme so his wife fucked a black guy. And then he made Go. How is doing le err not equal nil better than "or die" in perl. And no the type shit is retarded. It should be before the variable name not after it. It makes perfect sense. You know the type, and then you assign the name, and then later you associate a value with the name. Go is a meme language that will probably disappear in a few years. Probably not sooner than Rust though. Also that link is nothing more than intellectual bullshit, it's the equivalent of saying thst 2 + 2 can equal to something else than 4. Go doesn't really innovate in any other aspects. CSP style concurrency has been done before by Erlang and that language is better in every way. Why should I use awk over Perl? What if I need to create a connection to a website and parse HTML from it? Perl has libraries that do that in a very simple ane concise way. I'd have to do fuck all in awk to do that.

Can anyone recommend a minimalistic and extensionable web browser?
Firefox{,-esr} sucks, Pale Moon sucks too. Surf,vimb,uzbl are based on webkit2-gtk and not extensionable so much as firefox.
Matthew Flores

Jonathan Hughes
The only minimal web browsers are those that just render HTML and nothing else.
The web is bloat; use BBSs, Gopher, and Usenet.

>He['s a] cuck irrelevant >the type shit is retarded. personally i don't like it but C's keyword ordering is non-obvious too >It forces you to actually think about how to handle every error so do union types and they have better syntax than go's "if err != nil"
Adrian Hill
>union types Like C unions? What does that have to do with error handling?
But that does allow you to make a shitty generic catch-all error handler.
Tyler Cooper
i agree with this sentiment i hate nonces! they should all die this. the web is unironically harmful every web browser sucks. quit it. a text mode browser is fine if you want to just download a file or something.
William Gray
what? the only real difference between union types and tuple returns is syntax
Lincoln Wood
Use Lynx.
Chase Perez
:) i think i might thank you
Easton Perry
follow your own advice
Evan Myers
Union types are nice for error handling, but in practice I don't see much of a difference between it and multiple returns with err. It just doesn't matter too much at all. You just check for an error and decide what to do then. The most natural and logical way of error handling. If you know your function won't error on you, then you can just simply ignore it. In Haskell you end up doing basically the same, but just because it looks prettier on paper (not really if your code ends up with weird default values for fromMaybe), doesn't mean it is in effect much different.
Jordan Torres
>The only minimal web browsers are those that just render HTML and nothing else. Yes, this is what I want. Like NetSurf, but with vi-like control and userstyling. Maybe, fork of this one is the way.
>The web is bloat; Yes, I know. But there's no comparable alternative to it. So I should find a compromise solution for reading the web.
>use BBSs, Gopher, and Usenet. Too radical and useless.
>quit it Too radical.
Anyway, thanks for the answers.
Julian Scott
threadly reminder you cannot understand basic unit conventions and have more confusion and misinformation than a cs beginner at his first class, but still pretend to be a pro and act edgy. Also anime faggot. >1024 - kibibyte >1000 - kilobyte as kilo=1k, derived from latins, a patrician civilizations so ancient yet so ahead of barbarians/burgers like you. >bibibyte - exists in your head, 1 byte = 8 bit >any multiple of a kibibyte follow the same power of two scale >any multiple of a kilobyte follow the same power of ten scale All this rant coming from someone who uses different distance and weight conventions from the rest of the world sounds pretty pathetic and out of place anyway.

Shells: bash/zsh -> mksh -> sh/busybox (im sure there are others)
Tyler Hernandez
Busybox is not just a shell and not everyone think is minimal, it doesnt play nice if you require other utilities.
You can build busybox as separate binaries or disable every utility but the shell.
And even a full statically linked(!) busybox binary is smaller than bash. I always keep such a binary on my system for emergencies. E.g. glibc shared libs are fucked.

Oh yeah, the t-file primer file... i especially liked the points about trying to keep files intact and non-edited and encouraging people to date their files. Most of the files i run across now are being dated which is good. 'cause the systems will continue to be upgraded and technology marches on, blah blah... but t-files can conceivably float around forever 'cause data is data. Same old 40 column upper case file written in '81 on an Apple II+ that ends up on somebody's '586 'puter in 1995, ya know. So it's important to date things so readers can have an understanding of the context it was written in.

is there a non bloated calibre alternative, to organize, convert, and manage an ebook library and upload to the ebook reader? I hate to use calibre, has shitton of unecessary functions and pulls in qt, udisk and tons of python deps.
Nicholas Moore
>+ openbox Why?
Camden Richardson
To convert you can use pandoc, no .mobi or .lit, but .epub has support now.
Tyler Rivera
alright, minimalism thread is cool and all, but why does op image has to be anime pedo gay shit? please explain

I'll make this thread great again in the next time!

nice trips nice dubs
op's a nice guy despite being into prepubescent boys; give him a break
Ryder Lewis
this. And who knows, the bill gates shitposter may return if the paedo gay shit persists. Pastas are pretty good and so is the discussion, rly cant stand that degeneration tho. chad op posting hot girls? please take over my man!
Camden Mitchell
I agree with all these posters, pasta is great and OP is a good guy but having hot gurls would be nice too.
Ryder Watson
>op's a nice guy
I know this. He helped me a lot on "crux uefi problem", but these pics is disgusting.
Liam Collins
WHY IS HE SO FUCKING UGLY?
Jason Thompson
Just use RSS feeds and a text browser I guess
Ryan Thomas
Sadly, the web these days is so dependent on JS that you can't realistically use it without that. I've just kinda come to accept that, as shitty as it may be, and just live with it. My browser is Palemoon btw, which seems to be lighter overall than Firefox.

Hey, any idea how to hide status bar in dwm ? I just switched from xmonad and there was very neat way of hiding top bar (for example when watching movies).

WebKit is bloat, but these scripts are very interesting. So I've added this browser to my TODO list.
Thanks for the reminder. Looks interestng.
Adam Martin
it uses less resources and has less dependencies than xfwm.

OT: what of I want to edit text inline on the terminal, but not one line at once like ed? I just want an inline vim, it exists such a thing?

zsh in vi mode can do vim style multiline editing or you could hit ctrl-x ctrl-e in bash/zsh and just edit the current input with $EDITOR

I hear wordgrinder is a solid choice if you want something like this on *nix. Interestingly, I hear that LXQT will be ditching openbox for something else, mainly because openbox will not be updated to be a Wayland compositor. Not sure on source, but a few anons were discussing it a while back.
Blake Miller
A lot of small projects are gathering around wlroots, a library for implementing wayland compositors(window managers). So they won't be locked to a Kucked or Gnay ecosystem. It has already been talked about a few times in the Xfce community. Not sure about LXQT.
Michael Stewart
LXQT uses openbox?
Logan Clark
Yes.
