If I understand the problem correctly from your previous posts, it's that you are on an ancient version of firefox. We can't really help you there. -Steve

Well I'd like just to watch. Like I use do in this Forum, where I read a lot but I don't comment very often. superbomba.

Beerconf February 2021
The snowy edition. Don't know about everyone else, but I've been enjoying the nice snowfall that the Northeast US has been receiving (especially on the mostly 100% open ski mountains). This month, we will have the hangout online on Feb 27-28. So pick up your favorite brews (or whatever you like), and join us for some fun D topics or whatever else you fancy! I created a wiki page for Beerconf, as suggested to make sure people understand what it's about. Please read (and improve) here: https://wiki.dlang.org/Beerconf Cheers! -Steve

I want to link to the compiler source to do that. It needs to be readable by a beginner, yet also provide interesting and substantial information on how D or compilers work. * Demonstrate DMD is open-source * Get DLang more attention * Demonstrate how good DMDFE is "readable by a beginner" && "interesting and substantial information" might be hard to find. Did you mean front- or backend? If you want to show compiler u might look at https://github.com/dlang/dmd/blob/master/src/dmd/compiler.d for example. But I think it might be better to begin with some kind of overview so you understand what you're looking at

I wanted to add: What I do is I take a post that could be submitted to Hacker News, then I am an "optimizing compiler" for it. I post at 3pm on Monday through Thursday, add comments, tune the submission title, and various small HN-specific optimizations– my submissions have been on its frontpage 20 times, I know what I'm doing.

Yes, having the author do an AMA is very productive. I once resubmitted with an AMA-style comment, which was the difference between getting 12 points and not getting on the frontpage, and getting on the frontpage with 158 points.
