If by terminal programs you mean command-line interface (CLI) programs, then you'll never regret learning how core Unix commands work, in themselves and in pipelines, and their POSIX-defined interfaces. I use these often: make grep fi

If you don't have a reason to use Emacs from the terminal emulator, use the GUI. And for SSH, it's very hard to reject Tramp. One must is to make it less verbose though: (setq tramp-verbose 1). Then it becomes faster (at least

Very often institutions decide stupidly, when the decision is made by people that are not domain experts. Also, numbers may lie. If they did not study the same content with interactive and plain presentation, for example. I recall an art

In my experience anything that's not Gmail is considered suspicious, .com or not. I still use my email on my domain regardless of what people think though. Never more than a minor inconvenience. One thing I can suggest though is to s

We disagree at the definition of what slavery is. My definition of it is complete subordination to some masters, with no rights and in an inhumane situation (e.g. Afro-American slavery). Your definition seems to be that it is any sort of

While I will not dispute the Empire did cause all its region to become stagnant and backwards in comparison to Renaissance and post-Renaissance Europe (because that's an indisputable fact), both you as a Serb and I as a Turk should be

Certainly. I just wanted to clarify what "slave-warrior" meant in this context, because in itself the word makes me think of actual slaves living in misery and getting thrown onto enemies to keep them busy getting killed. Origin

Slave-warriors in the name only though. They were literally one of the most powerful classes in the entirety of the empire for many centuries, after the dynasty and the dirigents themselves.

That rule is plain wrong. Not everything compose well enough to make pipelines or configure with some booleans and numbers and strings. Sometimes you need custom behaviour. In fact, most of the time you want custom behaviour, or just min

I find that tge only way to use web securely is to disable JS alltogether except for a few hand-picked web pages. I use qurebrowser for that, and chromium for some nasty web apps I have to use.

Market is made up of selfish entities. The good that's done is a side effect. I do not mean that pejoratively. It certainly is in the interest of enterprises to provide value to consumers. But so too is to do that as cheaply as poss

That is probably because you want to understand it so. I give up, they completely meant HTTP vs. HTTPS...

Then I can reach for virtualenv and pip. I did not mean that package distribution and management in itself is an overkill, but that many types of projects just don't need these tools. And if one has to use these tools for all project

If I read correctly they meant the opposite, i.e. marked insecure if not .app.

And we have the first person to confound not having a .app with not encrypting the connection here. The comment you replied to did not imply that HTTP is not necessarily insecure, it said that you can (quite obviously) use HTTPS with any T

Unless you streamline the development and deployment environments, that is. You can just work in a VM, a chroot/jail, or probably use Docker (I haven't ever used it tho, thus not sure).

I guess what Python needs to do is to crown one solution as the official, and then start imposing on PyPA packages to convert before a deadline or exclude. Then they can move the non-compliant packages to a legacy archive, and build on the

Most of the time the language package manager for a very popular language is an overkill. You can get all the packages you need for web development, AI or statistical/mathematical stuff in python from say debian packages and build arb

And I'm not saying it's evil, but that without regulation it will favour itself over the consumer all the time, except when interests happen to align (and it does not, in most cases).

In this case this is a library and the information that it is written in Go is indeed useful: you can easily use it from Go code, not so much from other langauges.

For analytics you can try log analyzers like Webalizer and Goaccess. I use the former and I kinda dislike it, but I at least don't not like it as much as Goaccess. All I look at is just the list of referrers most of the time anyways,
