This is under a thread of using "guys", which is what i'm specifically referring to, nothing else. Its common use, and dictionary definition even, is a nonderogatory nongendered word. So I personally feel taking it as gende

When I was a kid, I couldn't pronounce R's and used to be teased endlessly. Should I demand words with r be banished because they made me uncomfortable? I didn't even know that was an option. I'm not sure this is the h

This feels pretty extreme. I was raised in the Midwest where everyone calls everyone 'guys.' Even if I could successfully stop saying it...why? It's very obviously meant with no ill intention.

by axaxs 6y ago
Unequivocally, NO. Please don't tell me I'm doing it wrong. The cons are it's a huge waste of my time. I much prefer a system where someone just tells me what they want/expect, and leaves me alone while I do it. I have

Thanks. Also noting that upx has the same behavior. I didn't inspect the binaries, just try to see how/if they compress.

This "attack" is against the ordinary user, so yeah is before or at the time of the dns query. I'd expect(probably incorrectly) for the server side stuff like recursive resolvers to have ECC. So imagine you are sending a mai

One rather insidious one I'd never considered prior was that lowercase n is one bit from '.'. So you can also bitsquat on things like, say, wwwngoogle.com or mailngoogle.com. A researcher brought this to my attention years a

Which does 'compile exe' use? Essentially here is what I see - $ cat a.dart void main() { print("hello world"); } $ dart compile exe a.dart Info: Compiling with sound null safety Generated: /home&#

Eh, it's a little murky. I was playing with dart a little. It can in fact create a single binary, but it looks like it's just putting the interpreter with the code. I say that because if you strip or pack the binary, instead of

Eh, that's terrible UX for everyone involved. I'm more or less OK with the idea of Apple not developing for other platforms. However, they are actively hostile to anyone who has offered and tried to get interop working on other p

I can only speak for myself, and my experience as a rather low income kid in the public school system. Without advanced learning, I'd have learned at a much slower pace and felt held back and bored. I started in regular classes, and t

I'm not going to write anything else negative about void or xbps, I retract my statement but unfortunately cannot edit it. Sorry!
313.
by axaxs 6y ago
Yeah, I retract my statement. It was my error there, and I apologize. Not going into too much detail, but was following a lot of the drama going on for the past two years and found it odd there wasn't a release in all that time. That

This is really interesting, thanks! I was doing registry work at the time the new gtld program was launching, and remember thinking how silly it all was but specifically some of the tlds being sought. Sure enough, I recognize a few of them

Good luck with Void. I wish you plenty of success.

by axaxs 6y ago
Um, no. A live image that is two years old is open to every security bug in the last two years. Good luck refuting that logic. If Void had a release recently, great for them. Are you prepared for me to rip apart the security stance of xb

by axaxs 6y ago
FWIW, I've been in the game a long time. I understand what rolling release means. In this case it means, sorry if you bought anything in the last 2 years. And really sorry if you care about security.

by axaxs 6y ago
Why is this number 1? Void lost their founder in weird circumstances, and haven't had a release in 2 years. Not knocking the distro, just not understanding the attention.

This made me laugh because it hits home. I've gone through many boots, hiking shoes, tennis shoes, and more and always had some complaint about discomfort in some way. Finally found my grail I can literally walk in forever with zero fo

Oh right. Promoting individual expression unless we disagree with that expression, in which case we force you out.

That would only make sense if these storage mediums had to have sizes exactly aligning on them, but that isn't the case.

Why do people get so defensive when 'their side' is questioned? Is your solution to forever go back and forth silencing each other because the other guys did it first? I am not picking sides. I think it's unprofessional for

It is -very- partisan, and equivalent to poking a wasp nest with a stick. The country is very, very divided, not just between D vs R but also progressive vs...everyone else. I wish I had the answers(surprise, I don't), but I feel we sh

Not just you. I've been using Go for many years, and while I enjoy the language I always found the environment of it awkward and unfriendly. Envvars on top of envvars. Work only in GOPATH, no wait, stop working in GOPATH. Vendor th

If you opt into modules, modules get stored in GOPATH. If you don't use modules...source gets downloaded into GOPATH. If GOPATH is unset, it uses ~/go.

Yes, that's precisely what it does.

I'm explicitly and admittedly just not a PC gamer, but this is the one exception to the rule. Probably because I'm a longtime Linux on the desktop user, and there just wasn't much in the past. If you enjoyed AoE2, or just w

Why does it pipe to cat?

AFAIK it's not illegal to run your grill indoors, either. Being legal isn't the same as being a good idea. Ventless fireplaces are also not legal in a lot of places in the US, for good reason.

There are single pictures you couldn't describe with terabytes of text(to a human, that is). Imagine for example trying to describe the milky way and northern lights. Yeah you could convey their looks in words but nobody is going to
