I am wondering what of this could be used in high-volume industrial processes. "We had the privilege of spending two days with this skilled craftsman, learning how to identify and collect the clay, and how to model and fire it using ol

I actually need a fast shell. So did Debian and Ubuntu, so they demoted bash. Whatever smugness you are interpreting here is diametrically opposed to the facts of this situation, and repeat after me: It’s too big and too slow.

No, because the Ada gsh also proved that the POSIX shell syntax could perform far better. Bash is prominent in announcing that it is "too big and too slow." It has said this for years. Why are its supporters so firmly in denial?

No, seriously, give an ash-derivative a try. Dash has been benchmarked as 4x faster than bash. The bash manpage ends by stating that "bash is too big, and too slow."

What happens when two of them play each other? How easy is it to introduce artifacts that reduce accuracy and performance?

Try using the Windows busybox port of "Bash": https://frippery.org/busybox/index.html It has a subset of bash implemented on Ash/Dash. Arrays are not supported, but it is quite fast. The forking problem

Research UNIX was ported to the UNIVAC, which (I believe) was the first SMP kernel implementation. It ran on top of the native kernel, known as EXEC-8. A later port to IBM hardware did the same. "The UNIX system for the UNIVAC 1100 ser

I would wager that batteries that powered down at 20% and that halt charging at 80% would be significantly prolonged. If Apple resorts to those tactics, then there is no limit in moving the goalposts.

As I posted elsewhere today, Iran has already inflicted significant damage on two regional aluminum smelters. This is a difficult target, with far more defences to overwhelm. Doing so would have far-reaching consequences. https:/&#x2F

I understand what you are saying, but we allowed Hugo Chavez to nationalize Exxon holdings in Venezuela (forming PDVSA), which was a direct U.S. interest. Why Mosaddegh was denied what Chavez was allowed is not clear to me.

Eisenhower's Iranian coup in 1953 set much of this in motion. I really don't understand the motivation, as British Petroleum (BP) was not a direct U.S. interest. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup

Well, how would you a) obtain the incriminating photo, then b) determine that it had been transmitted? An OS exploit and stat() for an atime would do it.

One of my friends recently spent some time getting an OpenClaw instance running in Ubuntu so he could have a truly private conversation with it, complete with an air gap. The value of that configuration has just been greatly magnified.
