> the last company in the industry that atleast tries to pretend they care about the consumer

Are you talking of underage gambling facilitator Valve? I suppose 'pretend' is a good choice of words there.


I mean that proves they care about the consumer even more. Underage gamblers are people too and they spend money. Blocking them for their own good would be anti consumer.

For modal editing there's also meow, god mode, and devil. Personally I quite dislike modal editing because of how you have to work very, very slowly and smash every key to make sure you don't accidentally do something like delete half the file, save, and quit; but I do have escape bound to god-local-mode for those rare times I need a long chain of chords. M-x some-command is usually good enough for me when I can't be bothered to memorise the chord, though.

When I read:

> What we've never seen is a unifying system that treated the TUI itself as the primary user experience.

I immediately thought 'this person has never heard of Emacs'. And my heart ached with pity.


Java. Fortran. C#, which in pronounced 'see sharp' despite being written with a number sign rather than a sharp. Algol.


C# is the sharp note above C, enharmonic with D flat in a tempered tuning.


No, it's not. C♯, with a sharp sign, is the sharp note. Exchanging the number sign for the sharp sign is like exchanging the Latin capital letter R for the Cyrillic capital letter Ya (Я).


Fortran gets a pass for being ancient and having a descriptive name (FORmula TRANslation)


Can't prove a negative. Proving 'it's an image of me' is as easy as holding the image next to your face. Proving 'it's not an image of you, but of a doppelganger' requires proof such a doppelganger exists.


> it comes down to their word vs. someone else's

Legal Eagle made a good video talking about how there's a bit more to it than that, it was about the Platner and Salwell allegiations: <https://nebula.tv/videos/legaleagle-she-said-is-evidence>.


The video is more widely accessible on YouTube https://youtube.com/watch?v=KvanHITPNEc


I'm not able to view the video, but based on the description, I don't know that it's relevant - I'm not claiming testimony isn't evidence, because it very clearly is?

My comment is almost entirely about the court of public opinion side of things, though, not what happens in the courts themselves - because the topic is about a list as an alternative to the prosecution of these people.


Because people generally don't like having bits of millstone in their flour.


I don't get the scoring system: I got 0 points, but I got a streak of 2 in a row. Bizarre.


And for 'herb' it depends on which dialect of English you speak.


Less vs fewer.
