" In this post I refer to lyrics of certain bands as being "Metal". I know some people have strong feelings about how genres are defined, and would probably disagree with me about some of the bands I call metal in this post. I call these band "Metal" here for the sake of brevity only, and I apologise in advance. "

"Last year, I wrote an article describing the free and open-source graphics stack, explaining all of the interconnected pieces: X11, graphics drivers, DRM, and DRI, and their roles in getting pixels placed on the screen. In the year since, I've answered a lot of really good questions from the Linux community about my post, about X11, and about Wayland. I've learned a lot. Several new technologies have appeared, and I have started to take a more active role in this myself, as part of our efforts to port GNOME to Wayland."

"In software engineering, a fluent interface (as first coined by Eric Evans and Martin Fowler) is an implementation of an object oriented API that aims to provide more readable code. A fluent interface is normally implemented by using method cascading (concretely method chaining) to relay the instruction context of a subsequent call (but a fluent interface entails more than just method chaining [1]). Generally, the context is defined through the return value of a called method self-referential, where the new context is equivalent to the last context terminated through the return of a void context."

"TMSU is a tool for tagging your files. It provides a simple command-line tool for applying tags and a virtual filesystem so that you can get a tag-based view of your files from within any other program. TMSU does not alter your files in any way: they remain unchanged on disk, or on the network, wherever you put them. TMSU maintains its own database and you simply gain an additional view, which you can mount, based upon the tags you set up. The only commitment required is your time and there's absolutely no lock-in."
