Given enough time, software eventually becomes unsupported, and then -- perhaps after more time, but perhaps not -- unusable. In effect, this is the return at the end of the auto lease. It's not a perfect analogy (really nothing ever

Ah, the sectional I was viewing on flightaware.net didn't show that note. I was just reading[1] how a similar aerostat is flown from Cudjoe Key, Florida by the DEA. That one appears to be marked in its own 4 mile wide zone.[2] [1]:

Tethered to the ground from almost 2 miles up? I'd imagine this would require a decent sized exclusion zone for air traffic. Also, there's always going to be some wind aloft pulling the blimp away from its anchor. It would be in

Yep, that is a fair point. I should have qualified my statement about bash's defaults, since many OSs include their own custom start-up files that may modify the defaults.

FWIW, the double-star recursive globbing was added in Bash 4.0. My reading of the manual[1] suggests it is disabled by default, and can be enabled by setting the 'globstar' shell option. I believe it's enabled by default in
