@ekuber @GregMorenz A nice blog that talks a bit about this https://danluu.com/in-house/
They not only had tech debt, but they also had people that really understood the stack.
This is a bit akin to how Netflix knows FreeBSD well enough to tune it to extreme throughput. They could likely do the same with Linux, but FreeBSD is the stack they know. Twitter knew their stack well it is rare that it went down for the past few years

@luna Match was one of the reasons I looked into Rust in the first place, before my main language had been F# and I was just missing being able to match everything.

@fasterthanlime @Toasterson One issue I am running into with the VSCode way is that it only works on platforms supported by Microsoft. For example it does not work at all if you want to edit something on a FreeBSD server.
A different way is the one taken by emacs with its tramp mode which does the communication over ssh, (or a number of other protocols) but allows you edit it locally. It even makes it possible to run LSP on the server. And does not really expect much other than ssh and scp works.

(for a while I even had a FreeBSD server running LSP and a Linux client and that somehow worked.)

@noracodes When I read it first I though it was from the point of the trees and it reminded me about one of my favourite fairy tales: "The Fir Tree" by Hans Christian Andersen which is written from the point of a tree https://andersen.sdu.dk/vaerk/hersholt/TheFirTree_e.html

@cadey Should be the other way around, one donation = one step on you.
At least if the goal is to get donations
