Yes, but SMTP is a protocol wherein a system opens a connection to another system and says, hey here's a message. And if that doesn't succeed for some reason, it reliably queues and retries. That's a push.

Many times repairing those kinds of situations in Linux is as simple as: - boot linux livecd - mount your broken filesystem - bind mount the important bits from the live kernel (/proc) - chroot Like this: cd / mount -t

That's fine. But simple things that should work in order to be painless, don't. -- -- bash:~]$ if $var < 21; then echo "smaller"; fi bash: 21: No such file or directory -- -- BUT this works: if (( $var < 21 )); t

xonsh is absolutely the right way to go here. There are a lot of 'gotchas' when it comes to building a shell that isn't 'just' a novelty but actually usable. Shells are most successful when you don't need to th

In one of my previous positions, part of my work was maintaining legacy build and automation scripts, many of which were written in Perl. The one thing that stood out to me, was what happened when I had to show somebody else what a script d

I am biased to think this was going to be just a bunch of hoopla coming from Google. They are the last company I'd expect to actually care about user privacy. "That’s why last year Chrome announced its intent to remove support for

That seems nearsighted to me. Making it cheaper for vertically integrated businesses to make money kind of forces bigger businesses to buy smaller ones. This same idea also means that smaller businesses aren't on the same playing field

You are right on the cause of the issue. But the software does not HAVE to guess the type. If I paste something into Excel, I want what I pasted to be what's in Excel. Changing the type and inadvertently affecting the data isn't s

Just because 90 million is a minority doesn't make 90 million insignificant. This is a difficult problem to solve. Recognizing that first and foremost will bring you down the path of: 1. We need a solution for actual urban populations

It's possible to track similar passwords in a safe way over a short amount of time. Keeping any user's password or any security token in plaintext is just disgusting. Regular people have a hard enough time navigating the digital w

No, you aren't. Unless he was on contract for the year, the salary for the rest of the year won't be paid in full if the employee leaves or is fired, for example. A loan is the opposite.

Instead of fixing something RIGHT NOW, meaning adding another commit to your build, why aren't you instead rolling back to a known good commit? Image is already built. C/I already certified it. The RIGHT NOW fix is just a rollback

The solution to removing an element from a linked list is so simple I Googled it because I thought I was missing something. Anyone who cannot remove an element from a linked list simply does not understand what a linked list is. And that&#x

Generally I agree with your point but this isn't your uncle's homemade public photo gallery. These are people's lives on the line. These kids have no say in whether they think they should take these exams. And because of that

>technically unfeasible to guarantee "pipe size" bandwidth to all routes on the internet to all your clients Yes I agree. But if I pay an ISP for a 10mbps link, I should be able to get 10mbps to their NOC at all times, and then

You are saying it's okay for ISPs to charge per packet rather than per pipe size. It is possible for ISPs to set up their network for guaranteed bandwidth (at least as far as the NOC you are connected to). But not doing so means they c
