I've had 2 coworkers who use different IDEs report that apparently their IDE is running `go` commands in parallel, because they'll get the corrupted module caches.

Nvidia provides good support for CUDA on Linux, but not good support for graphics on Linux. You recognize this, and use a different brand GPU for graphics. The Nvidia users that Sir_Cmpwn is frustrated with are those that think that the s

That's an unfair comment on 2 counts. Firstly, it's refuting a different point than the one I was making. If the problem were "it's too difficult to determine if hardware is compatible with the distro I want to use,&quo

I have distinct memories of people buying PC hardware specifically because it came with a "compatible with Windows Vista" sticker, and they were thinking of switching. I didn't read any "holier-than-thou" sentiment

In general, users of $foo have no problem researching their hardware purchases to make sure that they are compatible with $foo. ...unless foo=FOSS. When buying a printer, many users have no problem researching the printer to make sure it

The Linux kernel itself will use the serial console by default if there's no VGA device: If no console device is specified, the first device found capable of acting as a system console will be used. At this time, the system

For context: Firefox 64 removed `browser.showQuitWarning`, which would show a dialog asking "cancel"/"save session"/"discard session" when you quit.

I usually agree with that. The projects I was referring to are either Go (where the norm is to check in code-gen'ed files, so that things are `go get`able), or static websites (where every commit will get rolled out as soon as you pus

How fast the system makes updates has nothing to do with it. Premise: The current state is "foo". Alice would like to change the state to "bar". Bob would like to change the state to "baz". Alice and Bob are

gtk.org, the active and current homepage of GTK+, says right there on the homepage: > GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. GTK+ development does take place on gitlab.gnome.org, but it is still part of GNU (unlike the rest

Linux is the kernel. The rest of it is... not Linux. It's almost like RMS had a point with the rant that he gets mocked for.

Why? The {} doesn't prevent glob expansion or field separation.

Do note that was my complaint with $0, that when using $PATH it was set to that full gross path. If /bin/foo is actually /nix/store/3508wrguwrgu3h5y9354rhfgw056y-foo-5.0/bin/foo, then when you run "

by LukeShu 8y ago
Yes, that's what we've been stuck doing, because the full path included in $0 is useless if the program was run via $PATH.

You're looking at the wrong file. Setting argv[0] doesn't update /proc/self/comm, it updates /proc/self/cmdline. demo.c: #include <unistd.h> #include <string.h> int mai

The argv array (and the envp array) are in a page the kernel set up when it created the process, and the kernel holds on a reference to it, and remembers the addres of those arrays in the page. The kernel doesn't need to "watch&q

Sure. But iOS doesn't have Bash (I don't think, even if it does: Then just ship GPLv2 Bash on iOS, and modern Bash on macOS where users might actually care). The GPLv3 of Bash doesn't infect the shared kernel or libraries b

Sure, argv[0] is a just string, that the caller can set when they call execve(). That doesn't have mean that it doesn't have meaning. You are correct, there is no way to know how your executable was passed as the first argument

That was kind of the idea of Unix. C was just a nicer from Assembly. You might write a performance-sensitive or low-level routine in C, much like you might drop to C when writing a Python library. But the high-level language of the syste
