I don't know Ubuntu MATE specifically, and it's been a long time since I used Linux on the desktop, but I'm surprised that "apt install foo" has more friction than "brew install foo". Both work very nicel

So I write some code and a test, and of course the first time I run the code, the test is going to fail. So now the balance in our "Software test" account is nonzero whereas it should be zero. But audit requires us to record all b

I use a Mac, and it sounds like an interesting feature to have. How to do it?

Actually, let me set ns-alternate-modifier, ns-command-modifier and ns-control-modifier, and see what happens. It sure takes some getting used to!

After using a Mac for a while, I realize how easy the cmd key combinations are to press. They are easier than the ctrl key combinations. I think it would be useful for Emacs to swap cmd and ctrl.

I struggle to understand this; I guess the speaker added a lot of information verbally.

Well, Farout orbits the sun, is round, is not a moon. The article is silent on item d. I don't know what to do with the information that its diameter is 500km. I guess that makes it 1/5 of Pluto's diameter, and given that P

Maybe it's because nothing related to files is showing up. For example, Java has packages, classes, protocols (interfaces), methods, and documentation. All of these are visualized in a Java IDE. But Java _also_ has folders and files

This might hit a sweet spot due to the minimalism. The name is true, too. So it's really fast to open it and do a couple of things and then close it again. That said, I haven't actually used it "for real", we'll

Saturday used to be a workday. It might have remained a workday for shops to make it easier for the Monday to Friday, nine to five, people to go shopping. Shops used to close at 6:30pm, which made it difficult to do shopping after work. S

Shouldn't that be called `isNotString`?

I agree with you about `/home/linuxbrew`. `/opt/linuxbrew` would be better.

by hibbelig 8y ago
I agree that `/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew` looks weird, but `~/.linuxbrew` seems somewhat okay. Other locations like `/usr/local` or `/opt/linuxbrew` or somesuch might not be writable by the current us

With autocompletion? Where is the autocompletion?

The bash that comes with macOS is very old due to Apple sticking to GPLv2 I believe. So I did "brew install bash" and switched my login shell from /bin/bash to /usr/local/bin/bash and now I can use n

Yes, I'm very confused -- I don't have to do anything to "turn on" autocomplete, it's already turned on! The things they talk about change the behavior.

For PowerShell, there is PSReadLine, and that has an option to make completion more bash-like in that it completes common prefixes, then lists all options afterwards. (Say you have a directory with two subdirectories "fooabc" and

You can cmd-double click. (I don't use fish, though. But I don't think there's a way for fish to turn it off.)

"Luftkissenboot" is "air pillow boat". I think those who say "Luftkissenfahrzeug" ("air pillow vehicle") might also be those who say "Fernsprechhandapparat" ("long distance speech hand

I used to think like that as well. But what is “manual” about “docker build” that isn’t also manual with “apt full-upgrade”, say?
