A program that I use often uses an embedded MPV window for video playing, and Wayland doesn't support that, and apparently won't: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/issues/74
So until something changes with that program, MPV, or Wayland, or I decide to rewrite the program myself, I'm stuck with X11.
Personally I quite like zstd, I find it has a pretty decent balance of speed to ratio at each of its levels.
Definitely. As nice as it would be, I don't think it will significantly change any time soon, for several reasons. Not least of which is because several programs would likely just flatly refuse to implement such a change, judging by some of them refusing to even consider patches to implement the XDG Base Directory Specification.
Not really software but, personally I think the FHS could do with replacing. It feels like its got a lot of historical baggage tacked on that it could really do with shedding.
There was a bit of drama on tumblr (owned by Automattic) not too long ago where a relatively well known trans blogger got banned as a part of an alleged harassment campaign. I recall Matt Mullenwag (Automattic's CEO) being accused of following the user on to other platforms and harassing them. There were also accusations of, IIRC, tumblr staff taking payments to ban users. Which isn't great. So if my memory is accurate, your gut feeling is probably right.
Edit: typo, slleged -> alleged
I suppose that's true, but then the question becomes: how many people proselytizing Godot/OSS use these services personally vs in a corporate environment where they may not have a choice? Because I'm not sure the supposed hypocrisy the meme is "joking" about actually exists.
Am I missing something or do two cloud computing services, two database systems, and a search engine have nothing to do with a game engine? Cuz this looks like a false equivalency whataboutism two-for-one combo to me.
The thing is the average person either can't or can't be bothered to remember even a dozen actually secure passwords, so they fall back to a couple of simple derivations of a common password, meaning each and every site a user signs up on represents an additional single point of failure.

Like last time, a brute force solution: checking if every substring is a set of well formed brackets, and, if so, recording it if its the longest seen so far.
Rust:
A super simple brute force attempt: https://pastebin.com/qbYQNQ7h
Also super slow. Took me a bit more than a minute for n=10.
edit: An updated version: https://pastebin.com/wVhxLmt9
Added some simple constraints to reduce the number of unfiltered entries that need to be generated, bringing the n=10 time down to 10ish seconds. EDIT: if any of the test cases are n=12 or greater, probably best to fail this without testing. It's super inefficient memory wise.
C++ is pretty alright, IMO, but the syntax is kinda clunky though, I think probably because of some historical baggage.
