  • We’ve still got time to fix it, and the next release of Debian will likely have a time-64 complete userland. I don’t know the status of other “bedrock” distributions, but I expect that for all Linux (and BSD) systems that don’t have to support a proprietary time-32 program, everything will be time-64 with nearly a decade to spare.

















  • That rate seems high. But, I have done post-mortems on a bad developer’s run at a company, and found they did very nearly nothing. No commits, no issues opened or closed, some comments, but that was almost their entire digital footprint.

    Most developers I’ve worked with are obviously not doing nothing, though some of us (including myself) get stuck doing a lot of work on a project that never makes it into production due to shifting priorities.
