OpenLDAP does.

There's not much to replace GPOs, but you can conditionally provision most settings on NixOS. Would be nice to build an MDM around Nix.

New features like removing an artificial limit

Few reasons, some less valid than others.

  • replaces GPL license with more permissive one
  • wasnt broke dont fix
  • missing some configuration features of base sudo
  • C people feeling threatened by rust
  • people hate rust's overzealous stans
  • rust community is pretty queer, so being anti-rust is a nice proxy for anti-lgbtq

Computational theory would be a better name, but it overlaps with a more specific subset of what is normally called CS.

This is exactly it. Regex is super simple. The difficulty is maintaining a mental mapping between language/util <-> regex engine <-> engine syntax & character class names. It gets worse when utils also conditionally enable extended syntaxes with flags or options.

The hardest part is remembering whether you need to use \w or [:alnum:].

Way too few utils actually mention which syntax they use too. Most just say something accepts a "regular expression", which is totally ambiguous.
