Lest someone misread this and think that Emacs hasn't had an update in 2 years: That says "major release". The previous release was the 25.3 minor release in September 2017.

F-Droid is attempting to support reproducible builds--if you have a Debian system, you should be able to re-build the same .apk, or at least a similar enough .apk that the original package signature still passes. That said, by my quick coun

Am I correct in thinking that since a design patent protects ornamental design, then if a design is necessary for functional reasons, the design patent doesn't protect it? That you couldn't design patent a wheel looking like a ci

All 3 are design patents, which are patents on non-functional ornamental design of functional items. They aren't patenting side doors, they are patenting the way the side doors look.

The PDF is output from Texinfo (the GNU documentation system), which the book was typeset in. The .texi source files are also published. Plus, it is primarily known as a dead-tree book, not as something published digitially.

I've never seen something similar before either, and it is a very useful visualization. I'm thinking about how to do something similar in my monitoring. How would you extend it to allow zooming on the X-axis? With a continuous l

The `patch` program is expected to be able to apply any patchfile syntaxes created by `diff`. Once upon a time, the default behavior of diff was to spit out an `ed` script (nowadays, it's behind the `-e` flag). So, to apply that synt

You're correct, git has its own patch implementation (plus, it's a bit stricter than the patch program, because it doesn't have to deal with various patch formats--only "unified" patches).

I was going to disagree and say that they are part of POSIX, not part of C99; but they are indeed part of C99, section 7.14.1 specifically.

It's to have the compiler produce a warning if the types aren't the same. __cmp_once produces such a warning, and they don't want the warning to go away if it decides to use plain __cmp instead of __cmp_once. It doesn't

As explained in the article linked at the top ("LWN recently looked at the kernel's max() macro"), the issue isn't one of optimization, it's one of syntax. Sure, a decently optimizing compiler can optimize __cmp_on

The Mindstorms that I remember (~2004, on the RCX 2.0) was nothing like LabVIEW; I haven't played with Scratch, but from what people have shown me of it, it is very similar to how I remember Mindstorms.

The car turn-lane is to the right of it, so at least it's maintained as part of the road. Bike lanes that are truly a shoulder with bike symbols painted on are often unmaintained, and full of pot-holes, debris, and such.
