If you're redefining the main input to include all input data (including hand-edited CSV files) then you're just contradicting yourself. This conversation is tedious and unproductive, I'll leave you alone.

1 - If you google 'config stdin' you'll see a number of good reasons a program might want to accept configuration on stdin. (also, not that it matters, but my program read it from a file) 2 - Those IP addresses are probably n

That looks like hand-edited config to me. At least, I've maintained files similar to that in past gigs. It's a nice example of how CSV can work well if you don't need to worry about quoting.

No, cables and connectors these days are shielded and extremely tightly controlled. The amount of work that goes into designing them is staggering. (and that's before considering active cables)

Back in the old days (early 90s), they actually were many-pole switches. If you opened one up, it looked like a stack of washers with a bunch of wires coming out of it, more like a variable capacitor than a normal switch. They were very exp

RF switches are fairly expensive and aren't likely to meet the electrical spec anyway. If they're SPDT, you'll probably need at least 10 of them. What's the motivation for using them?

Technically true but that's bad protocol. If he did, it makes sense that he's the only pilot to be bounced out of the program.

This image from the order page implies 'yes': https://cdn.sanity.io/images/0e4kwcjv/production/6b0df7dbf80... Although $12 ($17 inc shipping to US) for 8 tips doesn't seem too expensive to me.

That’s not shielded. I doubt it offers any more signal integrity than the 30awg wires nicely taped together. And the 30awg wires can go around corners without folding.

Sure, body-on-frame cars (before the early 1960s) were easy to weld back into shape. With unibody cars, that doesn't work anymore. Body shops have frame racks to pull steel cars back into shape. That works if the car isn't too ben

Firebug was pretty buggy, especially the JS debugger. Lot of upgrade-and-break and downloading different versions. Dev Tools just worked.

If the US adhered to the Mozilla Manifesto then you might have a point. Until then, it’s fine to hold Obama and Eich to different standards.

Plus Google‘s browser cared deeply about developer tools. They were a generation better than anyone else at the time and had great support/evangelism. That alone converted my team of 15 in a year.

When have they marketed to power users? Can you point to a campaign? Everything I’ve seen from them has been trying to convince everyday people that privacy is necessary or some fun Mr Robot thing.

In theory, yes. In practice, they get dirty and bent faster than they wear out. They're cheap. Shops that care have them on a replacement schedule.

True, CompStat is not at all "widely credited" with contributing to the nationwide drop in crime. Even its contribution to NYC's drop is debatable: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CompStat#Critique
