The protest itself isn't censorship, the goal of it is.

That's because a lot of time the suggestion is more along the lines of "Why bother changing your brake pads on your old car when you can just buy a new car with new brake pads" than "You should really change the oil in y

You can also rent a PLB/sat communicator for relatively reasonable prices (<$40/week) if you only hike occasionally and owning one and paying monthly wouldn't make sense.

Linux supports POSIX ACLs, which I would classify as "default Unix" since it's POSIX, and also supports some extended non-portable ACLs: http://linux.die.net/man/5/acl http://www.vanemery

Well since you asked, I'm working on a system that writes perfect bug-free code for me, but if you can implement that I'll save myself the effort. But really, the next thing on the roadmap is to get tighter integration between our

It seems like every time I set up some supporting infrastructure it ends up rolled into the next gitlab release a week later, not that I'm complaining (much). If you haven't checked out gitlab in a while, you definitely should. It

In my experience, these kinds of connections are QoS'd on a per-port/protocol level, so every client gets an equal amount of bandwidth on that port. If you can get a tunnel or vpn connection going on a less used port you'll g

That's to be expected though. More people of any gender enter a field -> that field starts paying less. Also fields change what work they include while keeping the same name, so it's a very sloppy metric at best.

One of the biggest forces against marijuana legalization is from people currently in the marijuana business in one way or another. I very much doubt they're anti-marijuana.

I'm guessing the "enforced by" one is about the Americans with Disabilities Act. Most pronounceable 3 letter combinations are pretty overloaded.

I could be wrong on this, but I recall reading that the slow refresh on most eink screens isn't so much a hardware issue as a battery issue. Quick refresh would be pretty pointless on an ereader and be using power for nothing so they&#

It might not apply to you, but in my experience, people that ask questions that would faster be answered by google never actually learn the topic they're asking about. I think 90% of my knowledge was stumbled upon while looking for the

Ahh, understood now. I figured postscript as it's also a concatinative programming language. I read postfix as in the mail server not as a synonym of suffix, thanks for the clarification.

>arithmetic in most concatenative languages is written in postfix Postfix? I'm assuming a typo here but not sure what you meant. Edit: Ah, I'm guessing it was supposed to be postscript. Makes more sense now. Looks like an inter

This is probably because a good majority of the time it's used on the command line directly instead of writing the code to a file and executing that. In the days perl was more commonly used inline ( perl -e 'print "\x90&quot

I am so happy to see this today. I've missed this style of writing and publication in today's noise of mostly self promoting blog posts pretending to be informational. Hopefully they keep up with the paperfeed and continue to rele

Nah, what you said made sense, I initially read it the way you meant it, but it is ambiguous enough to read either way.

I wonder if there's a reason for keeping the leading 0 there past tradition/convention. 0x as a prefix makes sense to differentiate between 0x12 and 012, but if it's 0x 0b and 0o, imo it'd make more sense to drop it and
