Does that matter? Android could switch to Fuchsia and there would barely be a way to tell. Any server you contact can run whatever it pleases and you'll be none the wiser (unless you get a web server error or go spelunking). The kern

I would go one step further and make the join just JOIN Bar b if you've defined the foreign keys before. The need to spell them out again and again is one of my personal SQL pet peeves.

Speaking with my fish developer hat on: The only common case where we find that splitting on spaces is actually needed is pkg-config and related tools, because that prints flags to be passed to the compiler, and it does it with spaces so it

Yes, linux-native games exist. But games that run on linux via proton have not been compiled for linux, so mentioning them as a counter-argument to games not being compiled for linux makes no sense. The broader context here is TFA rejecti

But he'll do that whether he gets $10000 or $10005 a month. Giving to someone who makes less is much more of a change for them, giving you more bang for your buck.

Despite the similar names, what oh-my-fish and oh-my-zsh provide isn't comparable. E.g. oh-my-zsh adds a bunch of keybindings and a git prompt, and sets a bunch of options (like turning on history deduplication, or comments in interact
