No, in fact he is correct: system scripts won't pick up your overrides configured via your shell's rc scripts.

Because it's useless extra typing. People try to narrow commands down to two fucking chars and you suggest to type the whole goddamn path!

Kinda makes no sense to me: so you don't use '--' as a prefix, you use it in the middle of an alias, so you first have to autocomplete, say, 'gi' not to 'git' but to 'git--progress'. What does th

People tend to want some separation between what's theirs and what's others. Other programs/scripts quite often put something into ~/.local/bin, so it's not yours actually, it's theirs.

Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well!

I like to follow my own convention where I name files with shell scripts with an extension: .sh for POSIX-compatible scripts, .bash for scripts with bashisms or .zsh for scripts with zshisms. If I ever wanted to achieve what you initially w

One rarely actually needs to shadow binaries. Some cases could indeed be covered by introducing an alias that binds the binary's name to call a different copy of that binary. You use shadowing to fix issues where you install some softw

No, don't do that as a precaution. As others have already answered correctly - it's too late to worry about such things if a malicious agent has write access to your ${HOME} dir.

Not really, since if one usually does that - they probably understand the possible consequences and don't shadow whatever they like, but do it carefully. On MacOS I shadow that way just curl and git binaries to the versions installed f

I never knew that what I've known as 'hotstrings' (since the AutoHotKey days) other sometimes also call 'text expanders'.

Others have already given valid answers: grep is not ripgrep [their params don't match], so it's a bad idea to alias 'grep' to use ripgrep. But it's okay to alias 'ripgrep' (or 'rg' or whatever)

I didn't like the idea. I prefer the alternative approach: _I_ decide the order of dirs in the PATH env. If I introduce an executable with a name, that overrides a system one - I probably do that intentionally. If I introduce an alias

Surely they do! The data is in the public internets, aren't they?

This source is shit: it doesn't grant open access.

What's the connection between the movie The Matrix and ICE? Also, did the country truly survive just fine without it before that? Are you familiar with crime stats? Could you share the data on levels of crime carried by illegal immigra

There's nothing wrong with that if it's justified.

You can also not kill any people and that will be absence of murder. That's not what is being discussed.

It uses LLM under the hood. This is the bad part.

No, it does not.

Doubt. What are post-USSR countries (except for Ukraine) where government detains lots of people who hasn't committed any crimes? How many people get wrongfully killed by cops in post-USSR countries? In U.S. that's like a sport f

Oh, it was an error on my side, the link actually works. If you are happy to share the code - I think quite some people would be happy. The openness doesn't guarantee, but usually leads to better security, performance, etc. It is very
