   Hang on. I use Silver Searcher but its a reinvention of Ack. Its a better version of Ack that appeared because you reinvented the wheel.

   Thanks for that information. I am using Arch at the moment but I spent the last 45 minutes trying to fix a network problem which involved fighting with journalctl to see what was actually happening. Void linux looks like a great alternative

   This is not always true. Arch support for ARM SoCs is good and you get a shiny new kernel with systemd everywhere: http://archlinuxarm.org/

    One alternative is dnsmasq. No really. Systemd now includes a caching DNS server and DHCP. Another alternative is ntpd. No really. Systemd now includes a time daemon. Being intellectually lazy I like to think of the alternatives as "ch

    Use a handle (such as parennoob) and then you can decide to attach it to your real name after you become used to the idea of your code being public.

    Let's keep some perspective here. We are literally just talking about an init system. Systemd does more than just init, it has the features to replace everything from network manager to fstab. It is not just an init system it is an i

    Firefox is saying the same thing for me. In fact, I thought that was the point of the link (to show apple.com is marked as a phishing attempt).

    Can anyone recommend any books on the design of combustion engines? I am looking for a text book that would be approachable to someone without an engineering background although comfortable with undergraduate level mathematics.

    How is this not Embrace Extend Extinguish? 1. Systemd as an alternative to Upstart and init. 2. Systemd does everything. 3. Systemd becomes more important than the distributions themselves. I actually like their vision - I just wish my linu

    It would be nice to be able to see the API without having to install Rust. A small example in the README would also help lazy people like me. I really like the SMTP api provided by the Java library SubEthaSMTP, it makes writing simple SMTP

    I really like Github - they were a gamechanger. But now they are super successful to the point of creating monoculture in open source project hosting. I switched to Fossil because of this monoculture. I am sure Github don't mind one le

    There was a lot of noise when the Heise story was released with people concentrating on the use of nmap and saying that using nmap is not shocking. For me the disturbing thing was the pipeline - nmap, fingerprint, identify weak systems and
