So you say we should choose the hard way, because the easy way is lazy? Also, your point can be turned around - you could use python which produces readable and maintanable code, but instead you choose the easy, lazy way of using bash, whic

Docker is a linux tech tied to features in Linux kernel. You don't have cgroups and the like in XNU (OSX kernel) to be able to run docker natively on OSX.

Is it possible to create kernel modules for both OpenBSD and Linux with common code that's licensed appropriately? Something like a library with two kernel API glue layers, one for Linux GPLed and one for OpenBSD.

There is a "test tool" for gstreamer pipelines: gst-launch, but generally it's encouraged to run the gstreamer more as a library instead. Example, if you have gstreamer libs installed: gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! videoconve

Do you know if it's possible in KVM to create separate virtual subnetwork managed by KVM (like: adding VMs to that network, reading their IPs) which is accessible from parent network? I got home network and wanted KVM to control which

On the cheap side, I got old Lenovo m93p - USFF with 8GB RAM, i5 (2 cores, 4 threads) with 4 USB 3.0 ports, which is just enough for lightweight VMs, some test containers and ZFS mirror for backups / NAS. Whole package with 2x2TB disks

Had similar experience - I transpiled a ~120kLOC legacy winforms app in day and a half - mostly spent fixing build errors between not exactly translatable elements / missing rules in transpiler.

I guess pirsquare meant going back to default sort by "Removing the sort", which is a very reasonable thing which I personally miss in some software.

Yeah, you need root or sudo to view iotop. But some information is (at least on some fresh ubuntu) available without elevation, like the per-disk output from iostat.

It's either on Performance tab (per disk) - the big chart is "active time", either per process on Processes tab as a column "Disk" - color is related to time usage, while the bandwidth is as text.

I regret neither Top neither Htop show you estimates of "IO Activity time" like in Windows 10 task manager - I need to use separate iostat to observe that. I found the "IO Activity time", percentage of time when IO is us

I have similar problem with T420s from 2012 - great laptop, but there's a lot of coil whine and horrible fan with very small heatsink. It's a model without dedicated GPU, but i5 alone is enough to push the fan to constant medium-h

It's also the weak point - do you trust your domain provider he won't allow a domain move / access based on parts of your personal information, like here [0]? Also is it only domain block and not ip block? [0] https:/&#

I can use SQLite for prototyping without db server. It's a file or some in-memory buffer, I don't need docker or anything else to run some very simple unit/integration tests with the DB.

Some real-life tests disagree, saying 10-15ms is roughly the minimal latency noticeable by musicians, while 20 for "normal humans". Tests: http://whirlwindusa.com/support/tech-articles/opening-pandor...

I agree a lot with the first point. Writing recursion algo using C/C++ or any other imperative language I've tried is like crawling through minefield, from one StackOverflow to another. I found that's because we've learn
