This has always annoyed me.
|
|
If you tell me what the code should be I'll fix it.
|
|
I don't really understand what the problem is.
|
|
It was a failure of vision.
|
|
My apologies.
|
|
If you want to build your own, you've got all the pieces. :)
|
|
It's your call.
|
|
enjoy.
|
|
Yes, with a caveat.
|
|
No.
|
|
What were you doing when it crashed?
|
|
IBM wasn't thinking much about the future when they set up the VGA registers.
|
|
Thanks for the fix.
|
|
vga is a very hard problem.
|
|
I don't agree about the x86.
|
|
Hmm. Not exactly what I had in mind.
|
|
We haven't been making the common distinction between stable and "unstable" versions of the software.
|
|
Put things in the right place to begin with.
|
|
in my mind wheel mice don't count.
|
|
i've been hoarding real three-button mice for a while now; the end is near.
|
|
I wrote a simple client long ago that I could dig up.
|
|
please, do us all a favor and write a better one.
|
|
i've tried mothra and charon, and neither satisfies me.
|
|
That's fine for now.
|
|
Have fun.
|
|
eww.
|
|
This is getting more off topic by the day.
|
|
It is possible to write very clear code that really doesn't need comments nor "literate" interpretation.
|
|
it looks like an error from hotmail, not from plan 9.
|
|
we're stuck with ssh, but let's not delude ourselves into thinking it's a good protocol.
|
|
Aha.
|
|
I might not understand the question.
|
|
Sorry about not being more specific.
|
|
Actually that's the way it's supposed to work.
|
|
that was me.
|
|
if you're going to do something about it, great.
|
|
I think.
|
|
Some extra work is required.
|
|
that's a bigger job than you might think.
|
|
We can fix the code, probably.
|
|
This is misleading.
|
|
it took me just as long to install the windows software as it did to write the plan 9 software.
|
|
All things being equal, maybe I'd like there to be more Plan 9 users.
|
|
Sorry, I don't think there's much we can do.
|
|
The bikeshed has already been painted, and the painter has gone.
|
|
Being stuck using Solaris makes being stuck using Linux look like a birthday party.
|
|
also, plan9front claims to include a working go compiler. what did they do?
|
|
I don't think we'd scale to a thousand nodes very well.
|
|
Buh?
|
|
Feature lists are great, but don't forget that there's always an implementation cost.
|
|
Sorry, no luck.
|
|
Now, now, be fair.
|
|
I wish...
|
|
We tried that.
|
|
Dude, wake up!
|
|
Looks like a bug to me.
|
|
You think Windows runs in polynomial time?
|
|
Also, backups are good.
|
|
if you want something in particular, you could always port it.
|
|
Suppose you subscribe to the Kernighan & Plauger thesis that programs should be clear.
