gollark: Did you know? Bees approximate your location with increasing accuracy.
gollark: How fun.
gollark: Excitingly, minoteaur crashes when closing the database if migrating it if and only if it is not run under valgrind.
gollark: I can't point to a particular build/project tooling system which *utterly* doesn't fail for me. makefiles fail unfathomably sometimes, cmake fails unfathomably lots of the time, cargo sometimes runs into bizarre dependency errors, nimble works fine actually but I don't ever install stuff from it, luarocks is no, python has an awful mess, etc.
gollark: > In a typical build system, the dependency arrows go down. Although this is the way they would naturally go due to gravity, it is unfortunately also where the enemy's gate is. This makes it very inefficient and unfriendly. In tup, the arrows go up. This is obviously true because it rhymes. See how the dependencies differ in make and tup:Wow, this sounds like a great build system.
