It no longer matters if it was originally unintentional. If it's in active use now, so even if was originally by accident it cannot be fixed without breaking backwards compatibility.

Note also that this does not need any subshells. I think dataflow was thinking of (test -f a && test -f b) || (test -f c && test -f d) instead, but { } isn't worse than that.

POSIX did standardize those, but the functionality is marked XSI, so only XSI-conforming implementations are required to provide it. There is never a reason to use them, though. They can be replaced by the shell's && and || ope

That looks like what I was expecting. Nice work!

For the null-safe operator: I've not looked at PHP in years, but is that transpilation really correct? That is, does the original code really call getSchemaDefinitionResolver twice like the transpiled version does?

FWIW, I read the comment as suggesting it's sad that the rename is needed, rather than suggesting it's sad that the rename is happening.

Sure, but cargo-crev does not seem to be about safe vs. unsafe code, it seems to be about vetted vs. unvetted code. If someone will go on to wrongly vet a big Rust library full of unsafe code, and you trust that someone's reviews, ther

I think the average Internet user is not familiar with country-specific TLDs except for their own country and a few others. Most people do not realise that .me, .tv, .cc, are country TLDs, they think they are country-independent TLDs simila

There's a lot of information on that at https://www.justis.nl/producten/vog/beoordeling-besluit-en-b... , too much to summarise here, but I'll just mention what it says at the end: if you aren't give

I imagine the reason your laws only requires a notification that a court case is happening, without details, is because all the information is already public anyway and you can look up anything you need, so I expect that if Dutch law has si

mpol already answered part of the design here about the need for privacy for the people involved; it is a balancing of priorities, both transparency in the judicial system and that privacy are important and this is a way of getting both. Ab

Note that there is no secrecy during court proceedings in the Netherlands: court proceedings are ordinarily open to the public. There are exceptions for family affairs (such as divorces), tax affairs, and criminal cases against minors, bu

In the country I grew up in, the Netherlands, not only is that not common practice, it cannot happen at all. What we have is people can ask the Ministry of Justice for a "Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag (VOG)", a declaration by the

It will also fail if there is a stdout, but echo cannot write to it, for instance because you are redirecting to a file and have run out of disk space.

Not by me. The developer is, as far as I am aware, not doing anything illegal, and while F-Droid technically are, the developer as the copyright holder is the only one who could possibly take any action against it and is, I would expect, ha

The copyright holder is not bound by the license granted to others, so in general is legally permitted to add any additional restrictions. However, as this particular additional restriction is not one of the additional restrictions that GPL

Yup, I made sure my change would make clang agree with GCC as far as this particular extension is concerned, so it was fully enabled in -std=gnu++11 mode and only enabled where it didn't conflict with standard C++ in -std=c++11 mode. I

I'm not too sure about the "more code in the wild" that would be broken though. GCC already disables this extension, in the cases where it conflicts with the standard, in -std=c++11 mode. I expect almost all code to either us

I don't think it's productive to speak of the LLVM maintainer's decision as an abuse of power. The actual revert happened in contradiction of documented LLVM policies (which, according to the maintainer, do not match actual L

Uppercasing/lowercasing cannot be done on Unicode code points, because that fails to handle things like ﬁ -> FI where the uppercased version does not consist of the same number of Unicode code points. Slicing and splitting cannot be

Wow, what a horribly named function for a library that aims to make regular expressions more readable. The name very strongly suggests it should match anything but the string aeiou, so that it would match for instance the string a, but that

This is correct, and address 0 is the start address of the interrupt vector table, so there are good reasons why you might read from it.
