Well, TIL that I have previously learned c corone and c cornix backwards. Possibly because I associated the hood with corona somehow. Though that all comes from a time they were all just called corvus corone cornix here.

Have you seen Google search lately? :)

Maybe compared to the CD "jewel" cases.

Better than shellac I guess.

Jewel cases are fragile, but they’re largely standard and can be easily replaced if the crack or the dots in the middle snap off. It has no bearing on the artwork or the music itself.


The result is a convincing fake. Enough for many uses, but it's not the "source".


Languages evolve. Nobody I know goes around bothering saying "terminal emulator". The last time I touched an X terminal was 30 years ago - I have no intention of bothering with the distinction.

When you ship containers or to ultra-embedded, that one actually matters. If done right you can ship a container that only contains your application's binary, not a single byte more.

Container not even needed, there's projects like Tamago [0] that let you run your golang application without even needing an OS
