Not as-such, but the data is still there to be recovered, depending on how motivated you are. :) http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html It took him three weeks to develop it for ext3, so you might want to give yourself a w

I'm afraid I can't get behind this idea. First, we've had excellent "Ask HN" submissions in the past which tried to discuss private startup-specific problems that a partner or founder was having. These discussions were timely and relevant,

This plays into RiderOfGiraffes' experiment with leaving comments that tied together related (or identical) discussions, which I was rather sad to see him discontinue (especially in cases where two threads were discussing different aspects

A homogeneous environment that doesn't have formal package management is the only use case I can envision. It was a good idea back in the SunOS days (and it's probably still workable to a limited extent for the BSDs, and perhaps folks like

Your experience does not mirror my own, I'm afraid. The failure mode of not separating out /var from the rest of the system is interesting; spool, cache, lib, and log can be particularly problematic, depending on the purpose of your system.

The Apache lists, for as long as I can remember, used +1/-1/-0/+0/etc. as a means of informally expressing approval, as well as explicitly registering a vote from committers. http://httpd.apache.org/dev/voting.html That was the first plac

Similar problem (tons of "color" apps), but Apple managed to rank them highly in results when I looked. I assume they key off of selection criteria from the users (ie. most users installed X after searching for Y, so rank X higher for Y), b

Yes, but I'm an outlier: I'm a Linux desktop user. (Moonlight has proven to be only moderately passable in my testing, and even then, only in those cases where DRM wasn't a requirement.) But speaking more generally: when I'm at the keyboard

I got a pod up and running a day or so after the initial code drop, as a test to see where things were at (which I toyed with briefly, then removed; I haven't poked at it much since then). Please trust me when I say, the instructions availa

Or not at all. CentOS rebuilds the kernel SRPM as it sits; they're bugwise-compatible with RHEL. This is a complete non-issue to CentOS.

Agreed. Once I made the mental decision to stop supporting Python < 2.7, I ended up with at least one code base that runs under both 2.7 and 3.2. Switching to print() ("from __future__ import print_function"), basing error objects on Ex

As of right now, dns and dns1.lttnet.net (in-country) are unreachable, but the out-of-country nameservers are responding with what I presume was their last zone transfer. bit.ly still works, for example, but because of the outage, nic.ly is

Random point about this (my current employer is a national lab): In 2006, the OMB issued a requirement that new DoD/DoE/USG/etc IT spend ("to the maximum extent practicable") be IPv6-capable, and tasked NIST with developing a testing framew

Simply select a different game that's culture-appropriate. If you're interviewing in Asia, perhaps Go would be more appropriate. (And I believe the original author has a thing or two to say about that game as well. :) Or don't even pick a g
