On the consumer side, I prefer rpm/yum/dnf to deb/dpkg/apt. The later just really seems more like a collection of loose parts. I was surprised the other day that dpkg has no equivalent to rpm's `--last` switch to fi

Say you found the current commit through `git blame`. You run `git show` on that commit. The diff shows that the function you're interested in was actually moved so from the diff output you can see the previous filename and you have th

Sometimes a comment is appropriate. Sometimes a commit message is appropriate. Sometimes I need both. Often when dealing with legacy code I find neither. I'd be happy with either. A commit message lets me tell a short story about a cha

As someone who has contributed to Git since before GitHub existed and who maintains legacy code, I simply cannot disagree more. I use `git blame`, `git log`, and `git show` in the terminal all the time. It's trivial to follow the histo

In my own personal experience, having cooked with both, I prefer lump charcoal lit with a chimney. I've never found rocks, metal, nylon rope, or PVC left behind in my Weber. But well, that's just like, my opinion, man. The article

You're right. You'd have to use the `read` built-in and `echo` or `printf` in a while loop combined with redirection, but the POSIX-specified `read` built-in is intended for text and isn't going work correctly with binary fil

I think Better Call Saul is the better show. I really enjoyed it. And Rhea Seehorn was totally robbed of an Emmy. My problem with Lost is that we were promised something better but it turns out the show runners were just yanking our cha

There's nothing inherently wrong with using a regular expression here. The security issue is that there are two different parsers and they interpret invalid input differently. This is a parsing differential vulnerability. This security

I found my way to the story after watching the film recently. I came across the film on Criterion knowing nothing about it. For anyone who doesn't already know the story, I think it's best to go in blind, but if you don't min

Ah, thanks for the correction on that. Maybe plenty of folks are happy with HomePods for their hub but all the complaints I read are also folks using HomePods. It's hard to know whether they have spotty WiFi or if HomePods are just inh

I've been pretty happy with HK augmented by Homebridge. However, I'd go out of my mind if it weren't for the Controller for HomeKit app[^1] to allow backup and restore, and it's still not perfect due to Apple restriction

iPads are deprecated as hubs and not supported in the new architecture. HomePods are notoriously unreliable as hubs, but that may be due to folks who have spotty WiFi in their homes. It's best to have a wired AppleTV to act as a hub.
