@emacsen companies that operate near monopolies should face much stricter investigation too.

There are no free market forces to help here, so the state must step up.

I can't believe it took this long for any action. Comcast have been acting beyond shady for many years.

Adding stuff to your bill that you didn't ask for and making you waste hours on the phone to get rid of something you never asked for is just one example.

But certainly real punishment should happen. I'd even go as far as to say all their practices should be investigated to ensure they're not breaking the law in any other scenarios.

@alcinnz fascinating! So you essentially get to define a row of simple functions that are curried together to parse the properties?

Would you do all the above steps in one curried function chain or is there a logical division such as first lexing it out into selector groups and then parsing each property to preserve simplicity?

Does that allow for parallazation since each group doesn't interact until you need to compute their effects?

@wilbr @zkat draw IO is actually available on Github under apache 2 license.

We're self hosting one at work.

The only annoying thing is they hard-coded some urls that I had to modify in order for the application to run on another domain than draw.io.

@alcinnz not knowing how css is implemented, could you showcase some simpel examples of how haskell is making this easy/more natural? What kind of common patterns do you need to solve?

@iarna and to add insult to injury you can go figure what happens to videos that cater to people like me who don't engage in comments and may forget liking.

Basically have to discover the channels elsewhere.

@schlink loving the tail recursive one, but it sure is hard to justify when the windows solution is 1 line and more readable.

@purism i stumbled across a #librem5 screen protector on Amazon which made me wonder.. What thoughts have been made about phone cases and screen protectors?

Any first party options coming or partnerships with existing vendors?

@lightweight Pretty ridiculous.

I know VMWare is almost done purging the remaining GPL code from their totally-not-linux-based OS.

Still can't believe they got away with it.

@rain@niu.moe It's much worse than that.

Try to install a perl dependency on Debian and RHEL. They don't even have the same name.

So even if you don't care what version it is you have to duckduckgo "Please lord have mercy and tell me the package name on RHEL"

libyaml-perl-3.2.1
perl-CPAN-Meta-YAML-3.2.1

@adam @purism Preposterous! What is this? Some kind of phone? ;)

@HerraBRE so true. I've been privileged to only feel afraid for myself in similar situations very few times... But no one should feel that.

@HerraBRE better safe than sorry I guess. Doesn't really inconvenience me except when I accidentally end up following them shortly by trying to predict the opposite of them.
