The real problem is that I'm still using a #SpamAssassin from the past!

Help! Spammers from the future are targeting me! 😩

@martijn There was also a dude in a bigass SUV behind me who honked a couple of times because they were slow at serving me.

@benoit Another friend recommended it. I'll give it a try.

Ok, done. They say I'll get the result in "1 or 2 days". WTF? In Thailand the result came on the same day 😒

I'm in line for a #COVID PCR test at CVS. It's a drive-through, but I don't have a car, so I had to stand in line between all the cars.

Now I'm at the window, and they're asking me a ton of questions about my insurance before they can give me the damn swab for the test...

@grumpybozo @bekopharm Thank you ❤️

@penguin42 Also works with #Rust, #Java, #Golang...

I'm totally spoiled by Google's CodeSearch tool with semantic indexing for all languages.

Try clicking around:

And try right-clicking on a function and selecting references.

@penguin42 Sure, the UI leaves a lot to be desired...

@penguin42 Today's kids don't even know how to do git-format-patch + git-send-email... and they don't know how to setup an SMTP server that will deliver to the list without being blocked for low IP reputation or something...

@Effortless Credit goes where credit is due... but I don't see how alienating half of the remaining userbase will pay off...

...and it has to pay more than $44M :troll:

Wow, #SpamAssassin is still alive!
https://www.phoronix.com/news/Apache-SpamAssassin-4.0

I use an old version for my self-hosted #email but plenty of #spam goes through it these days.

An appeal to #FreeSoftware maintainers: if you're hosting your project on anything older than GitLab or GitHub, you're losing the majority of potential new contributors due to the high activation energy for sending the first patch.

Yes, I'm *especially* looking at you, Savannah: for years, you're been hurting #GNU projects even more than the GNU coding standards :troll:
