Except Cisco doesn’t have a commit feature in any of their OS and the rollback feature is not implemented everywhere as well - NXOs doesn’t have it for example. Still, it’s better than ‘reload in 5’ that we had to use back then.

Actually I have seen a setup that was quite close to this. Two separate networks, one of them was completely isolated from another, didn’t have Internet access and used a separate set of network equipment. On top of that, the building itsel

I think it’s the first time I see ma/mi as an indicator of major/minor chord. Why there’s so many standards for that?

As a person who had family members who fought the WWII and who suffered from said nazis, may I ask to let people laugh at whatever book they want to? There’s no harm in it whatsoever. Thank you.

I'm not sure why you decided to educate me on this topic, I was just pointing out that there are possible reasons why a person from Switzerland put a photo on his resume. I don't do that, even though I currently live in Germany -

It was (is?) a common thing in Germany and probably in Switzerland as well.

Being laid off and being shot is not even remotely comparable.

My point is that a person who earns 500k/y and have Google in their resume will most likely suffer much less than many many others. Too much drama about it honestly.

The cost of that though. My grandmother and her sister were two survivors out of five children. The rest of the kids died of hunger and sickness during random migrations between villages in 1930s. Her father lost everything he had because s

It is buckwheat, known to Russians as “Grechka”. It is quite nice, goes well with meat or even mixed with milk. The white substance is most likely fat.

Just make sure that you’ve checked the documentation beforehand, so that you don’t miss anything obvious again.

Nothing weird about it. I don’t watch Youtube except the rare cases, and when I have to I download videos. I can't stand getting interrupted for ads during watching so I opted out of youtube completely.

Sally is a quranic boy and girl name. Is there any particular reason why you seem to imply that the the comment above mentioned a female? There’s no indication of gender.

I use vim keys everywhere I can, so from my standpoint “stupid” UI choices are the ones that don’t support modality. I would really prefer having vim keys optional built ins everywhere. Your situation is simpler though - you can just avoid

> tool first, problems second Because there’s a tool and there are (current and future) problems that can be solved with this tool. It’s an one time investment into a tool and it helps to solve multiple future problems more efficiently.

I highly recommend reading Strugatsky’s books. I can’t say anything about the quality of translation, I’ve read them in original. But overall it’s the most enjoyable books in the genre I’ve ever read.

Probably, but point is it’s not something revolutionary. I’ve been using tramp for quite some time and despite some quirks it’s a working solution.

Alcohol and heroin are not even close in terms of danger and having had a friend who I lost to heroin it sounds odd that someone makes that comparison.

Maybe. I rather opposed it to a harm to humanity. I’m not ready to discuss the absolute values. Let’s say I see the Internet as an absolute benefit to humanity and the social networks are (were) a useful part of it.

I can’t think of any tools that allowed building a social graph. It was a novelty back in 00 and it was nice to have your close circle be easily discoverable and reachable. In a sense of discoverability social media was a benefit to many, m
