I wish you a nice and well deserved holiday, @dang! And good luck + fun, @sctb!

The question is how you interpret the decision of the other party not to move forward. Call it a failure on your side, and it will be a failure. There really is some deeper truth to the remarks in the other comments to frame it as a learn

You are so right. Which exactly points at the problem: Multiple OS package managers (choose one), and for each language/framework/... that you use, one extra. Which includes headaches for how to handle overlaps between the two.

Would the rep who claims to be in fear of losing her/his job be employed from that cottage industry? That would make the claim sound a bit more plausible, assuming, of course malice in the review-for-discount corps.

Not a German, and not a native English speaker, but I would propose the following (depersonalized, inaccurate, paraphrased, bastard...) translation: Mastery reveals itself by the limitations of its scope.

Automated testing, continuous integration/delivery, et cetera download and install packages pretty often. If the type is made in the requirements.txt or package.json or what have you, the error can be repeated very often up to and incl

To be honest, the what of the performance has not been specified. I take it to mean the add impression performance.

That would break copy file name after a grep, as the separator : would be missed. Different use cases, different wishes... urxvt allows full perl regex for matching text[1]. [1]: http://cvs.schmorp.de/rxvt-unicode/src&#

In zsh, you can complete a glob.

For me the same. Funny, as Friedl does barely discuss the ERE and awk (DFA) implementations at length. It is a shame, as the `more interesting` NFA implementations have performance issues under some circumstances. I had hoped the dilemma

This is exactly the point: Software production and maintenance is irrelevant for academic credit. So researchers do not have an incentive to make software. This journal explicitly says about itself that it is an ugly hack for academic softw

awk is a really productive constraint one can oblige to. If a problem looks like a text processing problem, use awk, and let the idioms set in. It is an awesome tool to have on one's belt. It is, in a sense, liberating to not have any

You might be interested in skimming through Part III and Part IV of Ethics, written by Spinoza in 1677[1]. He is a very sharp observer of how states of mind occur, react and develop. His attempt to apply mathematical rigor to his observatio

It might be. Most of the time, however, it is just a single person getting a longer quote.

In the countries I have been living, paternal leave is a right that comes with having a job and getting a kid. It is not a perk that some noble businesses might choose to provide.

Highlighting the quotes reminds me of a gripe I have with quoting styles in print: When a quote consists of two paragraphs, the first paragraph does not get an ending quote: He said, "The first sentence. "The second sen

Excellent remark. You might want to install `ponysay` and wander around `info ponysay` as a data point.

Interesting and well formulated words that are worth being said. But you are addressing (western?) humanity in general, and not the nerd group GP was wondering about. Do you see an emprical link between nerds and stubborness as GP does? If

True. Yet, the size of this single renewable project is bigger than what happens around my town. It is more significant than the current rounding errors.

I did not install flash in FF, and I do not miss a thing. Sometimes there is this warning that not all content could be displayed, but I would not have a clue what functionality is missing.

Appreciate your opinion. Have been looking into CMake this evening, and my little impression was that it does not make the problem smaller, just different. The things I have been searching for, also did not yield that much high quality answ

Thanks for your recommendation! Yes, I am just starting something small and new. And am now jumping the cliff of learning C, gcc, make, autotools, and gnulib-tool, of course all at the same time. Talking about a heap overflow ;) Is it corre

This is awesome. Have just been strugglingh to get started with this the past few evenings. Will take this as my guide. Thanks for posting! BTW, good place to start learning the relevant parts of GCC?

NFAs do not do backtracking. So the solution space would look different. More sane, and more performant, but it would not be a pure regex solution.

I guess tags/status/naming hasd a function similar to interpunction: It can guide the consumer of the info in how to relate the items together. Some structure the blurp does not hurt ;) (I very much agree with your point)

Wow, this is such a simple, practical, and subversive idea that my mind has been too boxed up for coming up with that. Whether I agree with this genius, devious and trivial idea... not sure yet.

What is the point of hiring young shots who would leave you on a whim if there is a slight promise of career advancement?
