this is nothing, a lot of comments I've seen are already flamewar and even racist, nasty generalizations, suddenly everyone is an expert in hispanics countries as if they would be all the same or as if they would share the same currency or economical situation, a lot of ignorance.


Yes, there are other bad comments as well.

Maybe this would help: you can't expect moderation to address all the bad comments in proportion to their relative badness. That level of consistency is impossible, not because we don't care (we do!) or apply the guidelines inconsistently (we try as hard as we can to be even-handed), but for the much simpler reason that we don't read everything that gets posted. There's far too much quantity here for us to see it all.

If you see a post that ought to have been moderated but hasn't been, the likeliest explanation is that we didn't see it. You can help by flagging it or emailing us at hn@ycombinator.com.

I think your comment is shamelessly racist and ignorant, to be honest, have you been to every hispanic country to treat hispanics like that? you'll see hustlers everywhere and in every culture and country, also Argentina is not the only Hispanic country so please try to make more educated comments, and if you feel the way you describe it as for Hispanic people, please talk about yourself and don't generalise.


I am from Spain. May I introduce you to the old "picaresca" from The Lazarillo of Tormes?

We Hispanics gave the world great people, but we got lot of hustlery and bribery since the Roman Empire. Italy is like that too.

A lot of great Spaniard writers said that they were fed up of Spain and the Hispanic culture as a whole, from Pio Baroja to Estaislao Figueras.

https://wikiless.org/wiki/P%C3%ADo_Baroja?lang=en

And Pio Baroja should be the ultimate Hispanic figure, the one who put all the Christian bullshit away and fully embraced Humanism and scientific Enlightenment from the 16th Century as the students in Salamanca did, but, you know, we might have been cursed, because even if Spain was the proto-embracer of Humanism and Enlightenment, (even before Lutherans, y'all HN readers please look up "school of Salamanca"), we burned our crap down three centuries later.


I'm Chilean and I read Lazarillo de Tormes when I was 12 at school, do you know that the Roman Empire also influenced the British isles and every place they conquered? What's your point? Christianity also isn't particular to hispanics countries, robbery was a way of life in northern tribes too. The statements here I've read are really ignorant, you can't generalize hustlers and bribery 'cause in every part of the world you'll see people doing that, educated and uneducated, the lack of values is not a cultural thing, saying that is racist, you can vote me down all you want, that won't change the level of ignorance I'm seen here in HN.


>the lack of values is not a cultural thing

More than the lack of values, the "getting away with that". I am not saying we are all thiefs, but little rascals/rogues doing "alegal" stuff.

It happened in every side of politics, no matter left or right, rich or poor, smart or fool.

OFC there's corruption in Middle Europe, I could say a lot of the French and the Germans, along Icelanders and the Danes. But at least they keep the ethics and resign. Here the Spanish verb for resign "dimitir" it's a Russian name, right? Because no politician would do their shit when they are caught.

Here in Spain by mouth everyone hates the cheating politics, but IRL, in the back, everyone agrees with them and they admit they would do the same in they had their place.

If Spain fixed it shit together, it would be a torch of Enlightenment for the whole Americans. But we need a slight change of mentality.

No, I don't mean we should became Nordics, as we are great in many terms, we are the 1st country doing organ donations. We should be like that on corruption, denouncing every crap, no matter left of right.

People gets politics in Spain as if they were a soccer match. And that's ridiculous.


And yet Spain (and Italy) are relatively stable first world countries. Damn, I live in the US, and I would say there is way more hustlery here than back in Spain.


I'm Hispanic and born in Cuba. So I know a lot about other Hispanics.. also wasn't trying to be "racist". Never mentioned Blacks, whites or mixed. Another important note, I lived in Miami basically my whole life. The diversity in Miami is like no other place. So calm down before you jump to conclusions about "shamelessly being racist" or whatever.. you can't be racist against your own culture lol.. at most you're being prejudice against yourself/your culture.


You have to consider that go users can come from worst places(i.e. Java or Interpreted dynamic languages) so just getting a statically compiled binary to deploy it's already a big improvement.


Haven't find a match due to the stack or is there another reason?


Hard to say, but for those that did express interest the stack was indeed a bit of a blocker.


>If you are a professional then just buy more RAM.

That cockiness sounds familiar, and it was the reason why people moved from Java based IDE's to vscode/atom/sublime.


Wow, I didn't know about those editors, they look awesome man, thanks for sharing.


Hi, it looks nice! I really appreciate efforts like this, does it only supports Rust?


FreeBSD on your desktop pc? I tried it long time ago but the graphic supports wasn't as great, interested in checking it again.


Laptop and Desktop, though I am cheating a bit. I just use the Intel integrated graphics on FreeBSD, since I'm still dual-booting Windows for Video production and gaming. Media consumption, programming and office stuff works just as fine on the integrated graphics in my case. So I don't know how the graphics card support plays out. Let's go with half-daily driver maybe :]

My personal pain points are bluetooth support and gamepad support being a bit of a mess.

Next big stepping stone for me is a Windows VM + http://looking-glass.io , which side-steps the graphics card driver question and doesn't require two monitors, though I don't know how hard that is to setup on FreeBSD.


Yeah bluetooth on my NUC hangs the kernel while booting. It's definitely a weak spot. I turned it off in the BIOS as I didn't need it (nor do I need WiFi). But it would have been nice to have.


oh that's a shame, I don't have a bluetooth chip in my pc, but was thinking in adding one, anyone knows if docker works fine in FreeBSD?


What I gathered from trying to get a PS5 DualSense running on FreeBSD ( https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/playstation-5-dualsense-c... ) is the following: BlueTooth 2.1 has full support. BlueTooth 4.0 has support only for Audio playback, anything else is unsupported. Thus if you get a BT2.1 USB dongle, Mice and keyboards should run fine as documented here: https://www.tspi.at/2020/02/18/fbsdbtmouse.html PS3 controller works via BlueTooth problem free via btsixad, DualSense and PS4 controller lacks drivers.

Using just jails on my servers, no idea about docker.


Yeah I think it's just the particular Bluetooth controller in my NUC being difficult. I didn't spend time investigating as I didn't need it anyway.


I think docker can be made to work but it's a tech that is heavily based on Linux containerisation. I think it's currently broken, as per https://wiki.freebsd.org/Docker

FreeBSD has its own mechanism for that which is jails (and which predates docker!). If you're not using docker containers you pull from docker hub, I would recommend to use jails.


I use it too, on an Intel NUC. It works just fine, no issues. I am using X however, I heard Wayland is currently broken.

One thing I like is that the team maintaining the desktop apps is very responsive. Usually new KDE versions are pushed to latest within a day or so.


>I heard Wayland is currently broken

I can vouch for the complete opposite. I use sway, an i3 like Wayland compositor (compositor = window manager in the confusing wayland lingo), and its completely problem free, only changing kern.evdev.rcpt_mask to get input working and specifying a sway socket file thingy is needed. (Something I am confused as to why package maintainers don't set by default) Maybe the wayland mode of other Window Managers is broken, which can have both X11 and Wayland modes.


Oh ok, I heard this in the IRC channel. Maybe it was just someone who was having issues. Someone mentioned about wayland and one of the maintainers was like "Yeah we know, it's broken, working on it". It was probably some specific. Sorry for the incorrect information.

I use KDE by the way, I know of sway but never used it.


That's great, is there any public repo for this?


Interesting, in my case Thrash/Death/Metal work as good as listening to the rain.


I also do listen to heavy metal sometimes when I'm working. I find it helpful if I'm feeling down.

Mostly I listen to noisebox rain when I'm working. (However, I'm using some other audio files (with 3 different rain loops, 3 different thunder sounds and water drips) and a different mix.json file, I cannot redistribute those so I did not add it to repo.)


Have you heard Lost Horizon? that cheer me up every time I'm in zombie state in the morning.


No, I have not. Will have a search.
