I am saying I have a whole bunch of other (not find) sources of items (not even filenames necessarily) that I need to loop over, none of which do null termination on output. It's an item per line, with spaces unescaped. I would either

I'm one of these foreigners spoken of. Congratulations, now you know. (Honestly, what's the point of your post? You don't happen to know someone in a group, so the group doesn't exist? Weird.)

You're paying for the LLM already, which is running on a server and consumes electricity.

cf. sibling, find is not the only thing to pipe from.

by eqvinox 3mo ago
xargs sure does support null termination. Does whatever I'm piping into it though? It's "find" in maybe 30% of cases for me, no more, and null termination is not exactly common in other tools.

Who other than nixOS has this problem? Feels like a nixOS thing to me, which I'm not going to complicate my applications for. All the orchestration tools have something like a vault, don't they? Happy to be shown wrong though.

You can put the "< <( foo )" before the "while" btw, for pipe-like ordering of things. All redirections can be anywhere on the command line.

3 reasons against that: * in a lot of cases the performance just doesn't matter * xargs gets you the spaces in filenames landmine * some commands don't even support multiple target filename arguments For scripts in long term use,

bash vs. POSIX sh (or some other shells) zsh should be bash compatible on this AFAIR
103.
by eqvinox 3mo ago
Not sure I see the point of this. Remembering a bunch of options on one tool is no better than a bunch of tools/constructs? Especially if the latter are useful elsewhere. And it can't be used for scripts unless you start shipping

The language is primarily used by Rotonda, the composable, programmable BGP routing engine. Not odd to have those data types at all…

This seems to be largely devops stuff, not developer. (Or plain ops.)

Your diagram at the top of that explainer doesn't include the various Mastodon (not sure if instance<->reader is ActivityPub) client apps, but does include ATProto/Bluesky client apps. Without that, it seems rather incomplet

If it's no issue, why not put a "note: I work for bluesky" on your posts?

If that works for you, great!

Cool people use ActivityPub. Single vendor owned & controlled standards always turn out badly, just a question when.

Wow. Good thing I sent back my Samsung health watch after discovering some of the fancy features were locked to having a Samsung smartphone to go with it. Shameful business conduct.

Leap smearing is amazing exactly until the moment you need to know whether you're leap smearing (because your seconds are 1.0000116s long, or the reverse). That instant, it turns from amazing into the worst godawful mess you can imagin

"fully ignorant" might not have been the best wording there... - clarification: "fully ignorant" from a human perspective, using dates and times. UNIX time lines up with those.

The really annoying part is that "leap smearing" (where people decided to just mush the leap second across about day) has made CLOCK_MONOTONIC unclear in this regard, since some leap smearing approaches affect that as well. Which

by eqvinox 3mo ago
UNIX timestamps are fully ignorant of leap seconds, i.e. pretends they don't exist. That means there can be physical seconds of time that cannot be referenced with a UNIX timestamp (when a leap second is inserted) as well as UNIX times
