       @jasper @yogthos Reading this I get the feeling the author is not up-to-date on object-oriented design. The hits vs ishit problem should be solved using a third object that knows about fighting.

       @yogthos @jasper I'm having a hard time understanding what the problem is. Your objects contain your data. They either work together, or they don't and then you refactor. There is no upfront consideration involved.If it's all just data in pipelines, it becomes harder to change the data structure at the source without changing its use downstream.The question is, in which case is this change harder. I tend to prefer the ease of switching between attributes and methods.

       @yogthos @jasper In a sense, when it comes to data, OO allows you to keep all the changes needed when your stored data changes in one place. The rest of the system, whether organized like a pipeline or otherwise, doesn't have to change.

       Ctrl-shift-c should really only be a thing if Ctrl-c is not 'copy'. And then, Ctrl-shift-c should be 'copy'. Not 'show calendar' or 'show development tools'. 😠

       @aral I'm not disagreeing, but for sanity's sake that would have to mean not using Ctrl at all for application accelerators.

       @aral Yes, but on macOS all accelerators use Command, right? That's what Linux desktops environments should do too, rather than only change copy/paste. Ctrl would then just be something you use in the terminal for sending signals and stuff.

       @alcinnz @aral @bugaevc What terminal program would that be? I don't see gnome-terminal having this option.

       @maloki @ashfurrow  why, when there is no 'slave' in this context?

       @maloki @ashfurrow That is not very helpful, I'm afraid.

       @maloki @ashfurrow I wasn't looking for a discussion, just for an explanation, since this issue was new to me, but OK.

       @ashfurrow @maloki "master" has many different meanings. Would this reasoning mean not using, e.g., 'master of science', 'master singer', 'master class', etc.? Or just meanings that refer to telling other people what to do?

       @ashfurrow @maloki Thanks for your insightful explanation. As a non-native English speaker and non-American this stuff is not very intuitive.

       @a_breakin_glass @elomatreb Isn't that how the <q> element is supposed to work?

       @jeroenpraat I'm just hating on Zoom because it gives the inviter the option to not allow the invitee to use the browser UI until they have "tried to download the client". That's needlessly user-hostile.

       @urusan Two Ruby solutions:def all_equal?(arr)  arr.uniq.length == 1enddef all_equal?(arr)  arr.each_cons(2).all? { |a, b| a == b }endThe second one should be more efficient for larger inputs since it will bail out at the first inequality.

       @berkes @aral @AstaMcCarthy What a stupid argument. Of course we can talk about good and bad even when it does not involve our own property.

       @berkes @aral @AstaMcCarthy Yes, everyone has different viewpoints.Thankfully, Christians, pacifists and you can all talk about what uses are bad and good. And disagree about them.Dismissing that discussion based on ownership is silly.

       @strypey They seem to equate an M1 MacBook Pro with a 'typical modern laptop', so Vista-era is probably way too old.
