This is just half of what Time Machine does. What people are constantly missing is that Apple Time Machine is fast , as it does not need to walk through the whole filesystem to find changed files. Thanks to FSEvents, introduced in Mac OS X

From the fine article: Why shell? Well, not really because it’s portable, as despite being a “POSIX script”, most of the date and sed tricks I do don’t work on the BSD versions of those commands, with comrak, additionally, being a dependenc

I can only repeat myself: you are talking about the NAT module in the Linux netfilter. I, and the RFC, are talking about NAT as a concept: what behavior do you expect when you say "this device does NAT". Of course you can still ha

The problem is: what is an implementation detail, and what is NAT as a concept? This line is very blurry. The RFC does not really distinguish this and also doesn't want to. As it says, it tries to document behavior and explicitly uses

Before you engage in discussions, may I suggest to look into RFC 4787, especially section 5 about filtering behaviors of NAT: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4787#section-5 Several things can be correct a

UPnP is not tied to NAT, where do you have this from? UPnP is used to request direct connections, a firewall can implement UPnP just as well as a NAT.

It's scary how many supposed hackers have never even looked up an RFC before making grandiose statements. There is such a thing as "NAT filtering", see RFC 4787, section 5: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc

Even then, "resolving merge conflicts along the way" doesn't mean anything, as there are two trivial merge strategies that are always guaranteed to work ('ours' and 'theirs').

No. The main reasons are that 1) the code AI produces is full of problems, and if you show it, people will make fun of you, or 2) if you actually run the code as a service people can use, you'll immediately get hacked by people to prov

Can confirm everything. PLA is completely unusable for this as it quickly deforms under constant pressure, so it is impossible to have a stable press fit with it. ABS would be the obvious choice (since Lego is ABS), but it's difficult

And again, yes, by the original definition of NAT in RFC1631, you are technically correct, which as we all know is the best kind of correctness and will move things forward. However, here in the real world, practically all NAT implementatio

Not really, privacy extensions are usually on by default, at least on Windows and Linux. This means temporary ipv6 addresses will be used for outbound traffic and rotated regularly (usually every 24h by default, if I'm not mistaken). A
