As a side note, there's also the wonderful pam_yubiko module that allows you to require touching your yubikey to sudo or login.

It's not really harmful as long as it's just some shell programs here and there that use it. The problem is when everything starts to rely on it. Hell, in linux, the dynamic linker (ld-linux.so) depends on procfs to expands ELF va

On the comments that glorify procfs as a great example of "everything if a file", I'm not sure that's how everyone sees procfs. To me, it has always been a sort of hackish/no hassle way of exposing some kernel inter

This all looks like some kind of simple analogy to explain the factor model. The overall idea is that the price of a stock is explained by information (price, earnings, estimates, whatever...). If you then try to reduce the dimensions of th

`->` used instead of `|`? How does that not severely destroy any kind of attempt of compatibility with bash? `-` is often used as parameter to mean "read from stdin" or "output to stdout", and `>` is a redirection.

Maybe, but 8bit MCUs are simple, efficient, have a huge community & resources, and more importantly exist in convenient DIP & SOIC form factors.

Any chance to see increased support for 8bit AVR in upcoming releases? I know Rust is community driven, so it's not like contributions will appear from thin air. But I guess maybe it would be time to promote/incentivize people to

None. But seems like the trend of the last 10 years is to rewrite every single already existing Unix tool in Rust or node.js. Throwing out code is more fun than reading man pages I guess. This saddens me. It looks like the average dev in 20
