You may wish to investigate the ControlMaster directive in your SSH configuration. Depending on how the two factor authentication system works, you may be able to authenticate just once for many concurrent SSH sessions.

I don't think right click is in the same category. For one thing, the right mouse button is prominent and next to the left one. For another, there was a pretty well established language that right clicking either did nothing (was har

I started with Oxide a few weeks ago and I promise I've spent a number of work days in the garage! Until we get some furniture in the new office building it's been a good place to get together.

Like any large scale project with a long history, we certainly have our share of eccentricities. We're working on moving the argument translation from cw (our "compiler wrapper") more directly into the Makefiles themselves.

It's been a tough needle to thread. Most everybody who has positive feelings about Solaris history already knows where we come from, and it's mentioned in the history section of our documentation site. For others, prominently fea

The article links to another article which discusses this. In order to do stack sampling, the CPU doing the work must be periodically interrupted for the sampler to run and collect a stack. Modern CPUs are deeply speculative and often iss

There are lots of benefits to uniforms. In NSW (Australia) public schools have uniforms, and parents pay for them. Low income families are generally able to obtain financial assistance through some grant, or fundraising programme; sometim

Having used Mattermost a lot for the last few years, you'd really _want_ to make extensive modifications to at least the mobile clients if you want things to work properly.

It wasn't, though, in 1995. Though it is perhaps less fashionable now, it was certainly something a lot of programs used at the time.

But neither of those options is more or less correct than the other; there is no way to know which a strict (but apparently unqualified!) interviewer is going to prefer.

I think to do this properly you need to implement the argument parsing the command is doing; e.g., use getopt(3C). After all, "ls -la -h --" is valid too.

In fact, we revived the same code the poster above is talking about, I believe!

Literally nothing will prepare you for that. No amount of time is enough. Living your life in abject fear of that morbid possibility is crippling.

For what it's worth, we're still maintaining SmartOS and it's still open source!

That honestly all sounded ridiculous a decade ago with "tweet", too. The success of the platform has normalised the nomenclature.

It was true that LX didn't initially handle what Clozure does with signals, but I recall adding a mechanism to work around the busted behaviour and I'd expect it to work now. Certainly in some basic testing of CCL things appeared

We've gone through similar rounds of debugging our XHCI bits on illumos. PCI and USB sniffing hardware is expensive and we have access to neither. You can get a long way by becoming comfortable with the specification, reading and gett

Don't get me wrong, I use and love a lot of terminal-based software. But from an information density perspective, my computer can display seven 80 column terminals over a hundred rows tall at once. Also, my keyboard is not awful, so

_Most_ people did not use computers like that at all, and it's not like they weren't tedious for those of us who did. There was simply no alternative at the time -- there is now.

One challenge with that is that the query plan often depends on the current table composition statistics. If a value is relatively common (or uncommon), or the size of the table has grown or shrunk, you may end up with a materially differe

I don't know what to tell you, except that people sometimes say things which aren't accurate when they believe it will advance their personal interests.

I work at Joyent (one of the largest on-record commercial users of illumos today), and am a core member of the illumos community. While we will miss the Delphix folks, they were not driving the bulk of general work on illumos. I believe th
