From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Golang on debian (h0bbl3s.port0.org)

I’m a big fan of debian. I’m also a big fan of golang. One of the sacrifices debian makes to be so stable is lagging behind a bit on software versions. Debian users generally understand this, and also understand that it’s a good idea not to mess with the system versions of software. Here I will demonstrate how I configure my system to use whichever version of go I wish without harming the overall system configuration.

@h0bbl3s what's hugo bear blog, does it reflow text to fit on phone screens without being impossible to read?

Hugo is a static website generator used frequently for blogs. hugo bear blog is just one of the themes for it I happened to like so I used it. It does build reactive sites so that they look good on a phone or a pc.
