using open source tools

Vim - you pass!

In my early vi days, I had a postgrad walk past my screen and screw his face up when he saw syntax highlighted C in Lemmy (a vi clone which I think I compiled up for SunOS... must've been 1997?), declaring: "Looks like vi for p***s."

And if you're crazy enough to use git, git doesn't really care what you are using...mostly.

I use git all the time. Great tool. (I went from cvs -> mercurial -> git. Never did the svn thing.)

I went rcs -> sccs-> cvs -> svn and got stuck there. Almost everywhere I've worked since git was a thing has been saying "we should really make the move one day" and I just can't be bothered spinning up a repo at home.

Oh, five years of ClearCase in there too!

Get your foil hats on:

A "friend" who worked at MS until recently was telling me there's a push underway to replace win32 with a BSD core.

How that's gonna work, I have no idea.
