In my opinion it should remain a shell thing. Adding tilde expansion just complicates the implementation of the tool. Now you need to know the current users home directory. And some tools might implement it incomplete so that '~'

In most cases you could simply use a huge number of lines like head filename -n 1000000000 or use the "inverse mode". Head and tail can print all but the first/last n lines (I just have trouble to remember without man

Even searching 'float' on docs.python.org brings descent results. At first the author complains about bad search implementations on the documentation sites and then judges Python by the bad google results.

Those are usually connection and no-data timeouts. A total time limit is in my experience less common.

No, because dict_put will update the limit value if the new pos exceed it.

Isn't JavaScripts regex one of the worst modern regex implementations? They seem to improve. Negative lookbehind isn't missing anymore [1]. But still lack the handy \Q and \E to escape stuff [2]. [1] https://stackoverfl

If I think of square checkboxes I think of sharp corners. Maybe I should write an article "In Loving Memory of sharp corners" because I definitely miss them but they seem to be extinct from the modern Web and GUI in general. If I

But does it matter? Nowadays even my editor wants to run a server in the background to provide syntax highlighting. People generally don't seem to care and see it as progress.

aptitude also auto removes dependent packages and is in Debian stable. It has also a useful 'aptitude why package' to say why a package is installed and a nice TUI (which is optional; for the most part it works very similar to apt

You can skip the uninstall if you use purge. And aptitude (alternative package manager) automatically removes dependent but not required anymore packages when removing/purging a package.

int s_isdigit(const char* s) { Name does not fit implementation. Should be "contains_digit". Also I would say almost any "issomething" method involving a loop has an opportunity for an early return.

You can also run arbitrary code at any breakpoint (at least for Java with Eclipse). Want to check the content of a buffered image? Just run ImageIO.write(...) while the application is stopped. Want to check the current working directory? Pa

I still do this all the time with Java. Especially because the application is rather slow to start or setup whatever I want to debug. It can also influence how you structure the code. In my opinion to the better. If you mutate state all ove
