Nicely organized and well done! Thank you. For all people like me addicted to this kind of reference websites full of information, check out http://hyperpolyglot.org/unix-shells (and all pages on http://hyperpoly

That's also my advice. Maybe use sudo for specific and regular root tasks if you like the comfort of your own shell but avoid changing root's shell.

A use case I can think of is weather icons. Carefully designed icons on maps can help convey the difference between a shower and a heavy rain for instance.

I'm not sure what you mean by "in a script form". In any case, the "authoritative" source of the template served by time.openstreetmap.org is this GitHub: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstr

The sources are here: https://github.com/stamen/watercolor . You can import the project into Tilemill ( https://github.com/tilemill-project/tilemill ).

In the case of Stamen, the process consists in installing Tilemill (the project is originally from Mapbox but it's been forked because Mapbox has changed its rendering/cartography technology since then: https://github.c

There's a page dedicated to the current OSM Key on their wiki https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Standard_tile_layer/Key . Is it what you're looking for? Apart from that, the page for each tag will show

Because you were born a slave and raised with the idea that it's normal, for instance.

Both are useful I'd say. Imagine a plug-in for your IDE that performs the static analysis and catches the syntax errors and some trivial semantic errors (typos in some field's name for instance) each time you save the file. I defi

Not that I want to defend Boeing, but it's easy to play Nostradamus and predict catastrophies to then only dig up the prophecies if they turn up true. The article doesn't say how much the claims were substantiated and backed up by

Maybe because of our (I very much include myself) infamous inability to pronounce correctly the sound "th" and making it sound like "z" instead.

Well, the color being due to exposition of the prisms to UV radiation, it will take a lot longer to reach the purple tint in London than in California.

It depends mostly on the period, the availability of food etc. One anecdote: I visited the (replica of) Chauvet Cave, in France, a few months ago, in which some of the best-preserved cave paintings in the world can be seen. They were painte

The Eiffel tower did not though. Nobody died while building the Eiffel tower although one worker died on the site outside working hours.

I guess that it's just that it would be super convenient if the equation that work for a fluid would work for any part of the fluid, however small it is.

That's a dataset of one, and due to your presence on HackerNews, you're likely more tech-savvy than the average reader of comments on news site, so more able to tell comments by bots apart from comments by humans. If a sufficientl

I had a similar problem on my previous car. It would start again without issue after stopping if the pause was shorter than 15min or longer than half an hour but there was a spot in between where the car had cooled down too much and not eno

As with a lot of things, this is ultimately a matter of personal preferences, and the compiler could not care less about how your code is displayed in your editor. So, the question is not whether is's "backwards" or not, it&#

It doesn't imply better or worse, it just means than one compiler is more experienced than the other since it doesn't fall for the traps that get the other one caught, presumably due to the experience put into its development.

That's also due to the news bias. If you never take the train yourself and only listen to the news, you can get the impressions that they crash or arrive late all the time and wonder why railway companies are still allowed to run...

Personally I find the Powerline set of icons for git very useful in my status line. Sometimes, I get a phone call in the middle of a git bisect or "rebase -i" and the corresponding little icon is a great reminder to run a git stat

A very tangential point. I would not translate "violenté" by "violated". It simply means being the target of violence, getting harmed. The author states that it doesn't imply a sexual assault yet reads a bit too muc
