Once upon a time I was a linecook. At the end of every night the manager would inspect your station for cleanliness. Most managers felt that they should at least find one more thing for you to do before you leave, or they weren't doing a

Yes. It depends on the case, but sed, awk and grep are also useful.

This is how it works in theory. It seems that many fixes would involve breaking things. And how do you enforce this behavior of bumping the version? Do all upstream developers agree to your interpretation of what version numbers mean?

http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2009/04/22/shared-object-version Perhaps upstream is doing some magic. Like applying patches to the distros official version and making sure it's compatible before distributing a binary.

False dichotomy. Among the many things that are wrong with this statement, the most important is that usually when upgrading an so, you must rebuild the packages that depend on it. Just ask any Gentoo user. http://dl.suckless.org/stali/c

I've worked on java projects in both vi and eclipse. While ramp up on larger projects generally takes longer in vi, I feel like the payoff is worth it. What eclipse does for you in suggesting classes become memory muscle pretty quickly in

I agree. One thing that bothers me about the karma on stories system is that an extremely popular story gets you an absurd amount of karma. But the thing about extremely popular stories is that they would have been posted by someone else

I'm by no means a tinfoil hat guy. But I've felt like this place has had Apple employee users since around the release of iPad, mucking things up. I know Apple has done such "PR" in the past. I guess a more likely explanation is just tha

My dad has worked at malden mills for over 30. Aaron has always wanted malden mills to compete on new innovation. He believed that no one could keep up with him and imitators would always be a few steps behind. Couple that with the extre

I have the same experience! You start to anticipate arrival and focus on "cleanup" work at some point. It happens so naturally that you hardly notice. If there is something left to be done, it's usually something small, like a 5 minute t

As I've gotten more programming experience, interruptions have become less and less of a problem. As long as it's something that I've worked on in the last few days, I can hop in and get working pretty quickly. I don't know if my brain ha

Once they distribute it, they are not just users anymore. The people who receive it are the priority with GPL. The major difference with the GPL is that the user is king.

Why does anything need to be run the TCK? Why does anything need to use the name Java? Isn't this more of a people problem then a licence problem? Am I really to believe that if someone doesn't have access to Oracle's magical testing kit

Summary: "I don't agree that users deserve freedom, but if someone takes away my freedom, then its wrong." I'd love to hear his reasoning for disagreeing with RMS's ideal of user freedom.

Apparently it is a plain GPL, but it is not enforced. I don't know if HTC has modules in the kernel that aren't specifically written for the Linux kernel, but I would find that hard to believe. I'd be very surprised if it was enforced in

There is no preparing. They don't own the code. They need to release it in exactly the same state it was in when deployed as binary. Otherwise, they are violating copyright (often referred to as pirates). That said, I'm almost certain th

I'll make no distinction. People act selfishly too, and there is no law against it. I might vote against welfare, then fall on hard times and plea for welfare. Am I breaking the law? Should the welfare office say "Well, sorry, you used

I agree. Should we pretend that companies don't act selfishly? Oracle wanted Java more open when it worked better for them, now it doesn't. They are allowed to change their minds, aren't they? I still hope Google wins though.

I find no problem with OpenID. There are many free OpenId providers out there, and if you really don't want to use one, you can create your own fairly easily.

Only a minor detail, but the author says the children need to learn to walk. At some point I learned of an experiment that proved walking was an instinct, the only thing stopping a newborn from walking is the lack of support and strength.

Hmm.. It is fun to come up with a different angle on a common argument, even if you don't seriously believe it. Could it be just nature encouraging us to signal intelligence? Maybe. Does it matter? I know sex is for making babies, but I

Wouldn't offending 4Chan enthusiasts result in great lulz? Perhaps the reason I don't understand is because it doesn't make sense.

It sounds like the correct solution to this problem is a package maintainer for the Mongrel2 package on different OSs. The package maintainers job is to make sure a package builds and runs on a given OS. The reason we have them at all is
