Go: What We Got Right, What We Got Wrong
Not sure these are really popular, but I cannot resist advertising a few utilities written in Go that I regularly use in my daily workflow:
- gdu: a NCDU clone, much faster on SSD mounts [1]
- duf: a `df` clone with a nicer interface [2]
- massren: a `vidir` clone (simpler to use but with fewer options) [3]
- gotop: a `top` clone [4]
- micro: a nice TUI editor [5]
Building this kind of tools in Go makes sense, as the executables are statically compiled and are thus easy to install on remote servers.

Text Editor: Data Structures
> The worst way to store and manipulate text is to use an array.
Claim made from theoretical considerations, without any actual reference to real-world editors. The popular Micro[1] text editor uses a simple line array[2], and performs fantastically well on real-world editing tasks.
Meanwhile, ropes are so complicated that even high-quality implementations have extremely subtle bugs[3] that can lead to state or content corruption.
Which data structure is "best" is not just a function of its asymptotic performance. Practical considerations are equally important (arguably more so).

A simple guide for configuring sudo and doas
There are two main ways to configure sudo.The first one is using the sudoers file.It is located at /etc/sudoers for Linux,and /usr/local/etc/sudoers for FreeBSD respectively.The paths are different,but the configuration works in the same way. A typical sudoers file looks like this. The sudoers file must be edited with the visudo command,which ensures the config is free of errors.Running this command as the root user will result in opening vi by default.If you want to use a different editor you can set the VISUAL environment varaible to the editor you want. For example,if you want to use micro as the text editor run:
-
what terminal emulator do you use and why?
found that micro has dedicated info page for copy paste

A nano like text editor built with pure C
Neat, I am a fan of minimalist text editors. There is also uEmacs: https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs
- Linus UEmacs
-
How many years have you been using Emacs?
maybe you're talking about the uEmacs Linus Torvalds still uses today? it's still maintained by him to fit his needs: https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs
-
Glory to Vim!
u/DellOptiplexFan Ironic, since the literal creator of Linux uses a fork of microemacs https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs
-
what terminal editor was intended to replace emacs in macOS with emacs bindings?
Torvalds's Emacs is nice. https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs
-
I just learned that new Macs don't come with Emacs preinstalled
Looks like he uses a thing called uEmacs.

Setting up a fundraiser for multi-threaded Emacs, any thoughts on this?
Why don't you ask Linus? Or even better, read his motivation in his fork of microemacs (not GNU Emacs).

Sunsetting Atom Text Editor
He doesn't. Linus uses MicroEMACS [0], which is an entirely different editor that uses emacs bindings.
It's not the lisp machine that incidentally happens to edit code that GNU Emacs is.
Or, as he puts it [1]:
> I use this abomination called "micro-emacs", which has absolutely nothing to do with GNU emacs except that some of the key bindings are similar.

Linus thinks emacs is terrible
Then on the other hand he has his own fork of µEmacs: https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs
