It's racket, you can change the syntax at runtime if you so desire. (But if you learn to use the IDE the parens don't matter.)

Well they lost /our/ business over it. For us it was a clear signal we're better of just hosting our own damn repositories.

A possible solution: if you click the "verify email" link you are brought to a verification-form where you need to enter your password.

Same here, especially since it'd mean it would /also/ run all the other open source operating systems. It'd be a great litmus-test ("hardware so open that even OpenBSD supports it").

IMO the medical info feature isn't worth the risk. You can always just carry a little card in your wallet. It would eliminate a huge attack surface.

The way I work is, I make an interface{} red-black-tree, and then when I need to store things in it I create functions around it.

Suppose I'm storing Tiles in a Level: the Level struct will contain a (private) RedBlackTree and I'll define GetTile(Pos) Tile and PutTile(Pos, Tile) on Level which do the casting to and from interface{}.

I still have type safety since I cannot put/get anything but Tiles in the RedBlackTree. But I didn't need generics.

> git can be considered a pretty basic tool

so what about CVS, svn, Mercurial and fossil? Git is hip right now, but including it in an initrd seems excessive. Furthermore git downloads the entire repo, all the history/commits, this isn't always what you want or can handle or want to pay for.

Pool operators have vastly different roles (responsibilities and authorizations) in the bitcoin system than banks do in the fiat system.

There's no irony.

Do you have a gist that implements this approach?
