> Having write already implies that you have read Yes, but if it's just being implied then it won't list "READ" separately in the "permissionSources", it will just list "WRITE".

IME, the problem with the GraphQL API is that it does a poor job of indicating where permissions came from, and you have to fall back to bad heuristics. For example, if team="company" has "READ", and team="company

> I've not heard of Go maps being very high load factors, so they probably resize around 50% or so full. Go uses a load factor of 6.5 (expressed as average load of a bucket; where buckets have a maximum load of 8; i.e. 81% full) (re

It annoys me to no end that TESS links aren't sharable. But if you click the "TSDR" button, it will take you to an equivalent TSDR page for which the link is sharable: (It seems Twitter actually has the "tweet"® tr

For a long time reStructuredText was "the Python thing", the way POD is "the Perl thing", where it's the "only" choice in that ecosystem, but you didn't really see it outside of that ecosystem. But n

I had been under the impression that LWN does archive the entire ML; but it seems that I was mistaken and that you are correct.

They're both just mailing list archives; and HN has never really preferred one archive over another; even one when is "first party". Heck, most LKML posts get posted as lkml.iu.edu or lwn.net; rather than lore.kernel.org or l

3.82 was a pretty big change, it should have been called "4.0" (and they realized their mistake--the very next release was 4.0). In particular, 3.82 changed how precedence between pattern rules works.

FWIW, I didn't interpret the parent post as a dismissal.

OpenRC's great! But it doesn't detract from the point that systemd isn't nearly as complicated as some people act like it is. PS: Who's still using OpenRC with heavy ol' sysvinit instead of the lighter openrc-init?

It's the default for Go; with Go you have to explicitly turn on the debug features that you want.
226.
by LukeShu 4y ago
I'd phrase that as "release mode by default", not "always in release mode". There are various debug things you can turn on, such as the race detector, the memory sanitizer, or coverage tracking.

Or `fallocate` if you care about the space actually being allocated on disk (rather than the file being sparse).

I believe the way it goes is that USR1 kills BSD dd. The Linux kernel doesn't have SIGINFO. GNU dd uses SIGINFO on platforms that have it, or SIGUSR1 otherwise. The default action for SIGUSR1 is to kill the process. So it makes sens

Going through the historical versions (copying from my other comment): - >=9.1 (2022-04-15) : Use the `copy_file_range()` syscall and let the kernel figure it out - >=8.23 (2014-07-18) : max(128KiB, st_blksize(infile), st_blksize(outf

by LukeShu 4y ago
Ah, I misunderstood you. You're correct, `dd`'s default block size was and is 512, which is specified by POSIX. I interpreted "the command" in the original article as "the command you end up running, whether it be

233.
by LukeShu 4y ago
Right, and the parent comment is saying that `cat` doesn't figure it out very well. I recall that GNU cat used a constant value that was tuned for read performance on common hard drives, giving no consideration to write performance.

It's for one server/IP serving multiple hostnames. For instance, the same physical server at 45.76.26.79 serves both www.lukeshu.com and git.lukeshu.com with the same instance of Nginx. Once Nginx decrypts the request, it needs

AFAICT, there's not a way to get those nice hover effects with a <map>, at least not without a bunch of JS.
