No, stacking is a (partial) workaround for Github "pull requests" being bad, by reimplementing the ordinary Git way to submit changes (one email per commit, reviewable inline. look at any patch thread at https://public-

Subversion? You mean that unimpressive flash-in-the-pan CVS clone?

Yes.

If you're using OpenBSD nc already, just use nc -c for TLS.

A problem with Rust is that the compilation unit is the crate, which pushes developers into splitting something that is one library into multiple crates to get incremental compilation, and it's hard for the user to tell the difference

I think the "conflict" is basically just a matter of Jaynes having used the word "frequentist" like a hardcore Calvinist uses the word "Arminian".

There are two ways commits can be treated in Git. Most of the time, a commit is a specific tree and some metadata. There are, however, some rebase-like operations that use the commit metadata to treat a commit as a diff against one or more

It doesn't mean "get out of jail free card for cryptonector being wrong", no. The simplified model that leaves out tricky implementation details is just "every file that's different is a different blob object, store

Zero-based indexing is always wrong; an ordered collection of things does not have a zeroth thing. Sometimes you have a data structure called an "array", which means "a bunch of things that are the same size next to each ot

That's because it's just wrong, like everything from the docs of ledger and its descendants (and every "accounting for developers" article, except surprisingly not TFA here!), and accountants are just correct to use unsi

What's even more nuts about Unix 300-layers-of-tty-emulation \n acting like a CRLF is that \r still works just fine as CR. e.g., you can get a nice little clock with: while true; do echo -n " $(date)\r"; sleep 1; done

You don't free the pointer returned by getenv(), because the environment variables are already in memory and getenv() is just giving you a pointer to one of their values. The most comfortable way to do a C API is to make the caller all

Yeah this is basically it in the course of actually using them; people should probably only submodule in tags as well. Some of people's problems also come from using them where they're not necessary.

Calling malloc isn't even manual memory management to me, it's just calling malloc. Writing malloc (not that hard in general! but tricky to get exactly the allocator performance or security properties you want for your use case) i

No one "missed" black holes. There are obvious degenerate singularities that appear when you take a simple exact solution like the Schwarzchild solution past sensible physical reality by e.g. pretending conveniences like "poi

They aren't. This is why pattern matching and typeclasses (to use the Haskell words, though I know other words are in use as well) have become increasingly popular features in languages.

At the very least, it's wrong that no one has ever been upset by this; many people have been very vocally upset by this.

Sounds like a great way to get yourself a Butlerian Jihad.

All the top answers are similarly awful, just smug bleating and ignoring the question. If someone doesn't know the etymological history, they shouldn't say anything!

This is a special relativity paradox.

Yes, the magnitude of something's 4-velocity vector is always c^2 (set it to 1 in your unit system) by definition. It's not as simple as a R^n vector because you have a time coordinate of opposite sign and you switch coordinate sy

OpenBSD gets hit the hardest because the devs are the most hardline about never signing an NDA or otherwise impairing the freeness of the drivers.

OpenBSD is well known to have a weak 802.11 stack that only supports a/b/g/sorta n modes on the most common drivers (Intel). This is not because OpenBSD somehow sucks, it's because there's approximately two people d

"and yet"? It's "and therefore". † The only problem is that the atrocious #fafafa on #050505 is made a whole lot worse because there aren't a bunch of even worse things distracting you from it.

I tried both (along with a few others I don't remember the names of) and preferred Primephonic a bit, but I guess I'm an Idagio customer now. Wish I'd never given Primephonic a cent. The knee jerk is to blame Apple, but the r

They are good features! I think they should just be made stable. Most of the help messages direct you to them anyway.
