Got it. I agree that their drivers are (were?) of exemplary bad quality

But I don't think that it is realistically possible to drop all the proprietary firmware blobs, and if it's not maybe it's better to not actively sabotage something to 'avoid those being feasible'?

Or in Puerto Rico, for that matter 🌚

Is there some sort of TL;DR if I don't want to listen to him even for just 10 minutes?

I'm glad you asked, because this is what puzzles me, too

Early returns improve readability in that they make it simpler to read, but I also find them decreasing readability in that you may miss an early return and wonder why is execution not hitting the line you expect it to

If I understand correctly, each data-access structure represents single workflow, and you may have Transaction in that structure without the need for Arc<Mutex<…>> inside, but maybe you will need to wrap the structure itself with that.

Very much this. I eat sweets mostly not because I like the taste, although sometimes it is, but because it helps feel somewhat better when everything is depressing

Yeah, good cop is "When I see someone β€” probably they have something to hide." Also, it's not a good kind of good, that's why I don't want to deal with cops even when I've nothing to worry about, they can always come up with a reason for me to worry

What's the reason to avoid binary blob drivers being feasible? Is that about not being able to use non-free binary blobs in kernel? I don't quite understand what it even is about

It's just time travellers from original timeline that tried to prevent it, and time travellers from the fucked up resulting timeline that returned to fix everything back to at least what it was

Am I right in my understanding that the 'super high' turnout of 2020 was still less than 50% of eligible voters? That really looks like maybe a minimum turnout threshold should exist :(
