Manpages are not a format to write the documentation, but to display it. You can `make mandocs` in the linux tree, then `make installmandocs` to make them easily accessible with the man command, i.e. `man struct_sk_buff` will display the de

Fair point, though there might an argument about content "curators" (clickbait websites for example), leeching off the production of amateurs who don't care about monetization. Continuing on this line of thought: I might be i

That's assuming losing the content creators serving ads would be a loss for internet users. Given that there exist people that hold this opinion, their own view about using an ad blocker is not at all in the same context than in the pr

The cliché is girls that are socialized that way. It's still overwhelmingly true that girls will have dolls more often than boys and that it will format their behavior. Recognising that is not perpetuating or condoning it.

It can be used for that. You can configure the tag you want to fetch and build if the repository is version-controlled, effectively allowing you to follow an external project: update your local settings when bumping your requirements, and i

Too little? That wasn't even an attempt, that's just shitty coding from someone having very bad habits in the language. That's a blimp, a shitty blimp. So it's not even touching on the subject of the competition with Rus

To add to that, C-P will go up in your history and C-N down. It is extra useful when using GDB in TUI mode (which is activated using C-x,a), which will capture your UP/DOWN arrow to navigate the source... Actually, just go read http:&

Ah! yes, at this point C-r is so entrenched in my habit, I didnt even realize it might be new to some. This is the shortcut to first learn when starting living in the command line.

In readline, ^U will only clear from the cursor to the start of the line, leaving anything on the right. ^K is the converse. I'm not sure you are speaking about readline though. Another very useful thing I use daily is Alt-F/B, to
