In-reply-to » The lack of suckless-like simple, hackable software these days is appalling.

@prologic@twtxt.net Hm, I wouldn’t say that. Go code could fall into that category as well.

Maybe this topic could use a blog post / article, that explains what it’s about. I’m finding it hard to really define what “suckless-like software” is. 🤔 (Their own philosophy focuses too much on elitism, if you ask me.)

[$] Nyxt: the Emacs-like web browser
Nyxt is an unusual web
browser that tries to answer the question, “what if Emacs was a
good web browser?”. Nyxt is not an Emacs package, but a full
web browser written in Common Lisp and available under the BSD
three-clause license. Its target audience is developers who want a
browser that is keyboard-driven and extensible; Nyxt is also developed
for Linux first, rather than Linux being an afterthought or just a
sliver of its audience. The philosophy (as described … ⌘ Read more

I read a lot about Clean Code, SOLID, TDD, DDD… now I’m discovering «A Philosophy of Software Design»… but nobody talks about the importance of the project architecture. Do we depend on the framework to do the work for us?
You know I’m a big fan of Clean Architecture, but I feel alone when I share my thoughts on social media or at work.
You have to think outside the framework.

Rebecca Gordon,  Lecturer Department of Philosophy - University of San Francisco  -  The Nation

_Stephan: As I study the trends shaping the United States, it has become clear to me that one of the most central trends is the MAGAt attempt to reimpose on American society a kind of late 19th century genderism, mostly by defining what is acceptable behavior for women.

Peter Saint-Andre: Philosophies and Ways of Life
In his book What Is Ancient Philosophy?, Pierre Hadot almost singlehandedly resurrected the ancient conception of philosophy as a way of life. Consider this observation about the philosophical schools of Greece and Rome: “For us moderns, the notion of a philosophical school evokes only the idea of a doctrinal tendency or theoretical position. Things were very different in antiquity. No university obligations oriented the future philosopher toward a specific school; instead, the futur … ⌘ Read more

Peter Saint-Andre: MLK and Personalism
In my recent post on idealism and identity, I mentioned my attraction to the philosophy of personalism, with its emphasis on human dignity. It is perhaps a little-known fact that Martin Luther King, Jr., was greatly influenced by that very philosophy. Early in life he ventured north to study at Boston University, then the center of personalist thought in America, where he completed his doctorate under theologian Edgar Sheffield Brightman. We can see the deep influence of personalism on King’s … ⌘ Read more

Hot take: gopher is not a failed attempt to invent the WWW, but its own crystallization of a coherent philosophy – to present jump links between text files, without all the other bollocks. That makes it as valuable today as it was 25 years ago.
