'miller' and 'xsv' are pretty good tools for wrangling CSV. (And regexp is kind of a terrible tool for it, too many edge cases.)

Yeah, despite ESNI and DNS-over-HTTPS it's likely an ISP could still effectively track usage of certain large-ish sites by IP address alone. Compare against the anonymity inherent in accessing s3.amazonaws.com/some-bucket/so

The layout and URL are part of the joke. The article opens with "In this unhinged rant"--I really don't think this is any sort of attempt to fool the reader.

You can indeed jump to the method definition in IDEA, although getting the IDE to a good point of dealing with implicits, typeclasses, and their ilk has been a long road.

If visiting New York City, must one also visit the Adirondacks and Montauk as well? How long a vacation are we talking about here?

> SSNs have not been issued with a geographic prefix in a decade. Even if what you say were true, handwaving this as unimportant because it only affects people over the age of ten seems a bit silly.

Yours is a well-written comment and I'd give it more than one upvote if I could. I wonder if the reality of Democrats' rather strong indifference to progressive economics and meaningful reform--and the GOP spending taxpayer dolla

Might it be that not everyone would view taking on a big challenge with a potential ton of impact "career suicide"--or, would you shun an industry peer who tried to make Windows better?

Not all crises are equal. This current one didn't really bring people together. And although I wasn't around to see it, it's hard to imagine 40% or whatever of the population in 1942 were all, "that guy in Germany isn&

And perhaps a "fresh start" for would-be moderators and tone-setters? i.e. the power users of reddit seem more than a bit ensconced.

> something like the hopper was too full of product Shouldn't then there be a guide or actual limiter for maximum hopper fill level based on ambient temperature, or just a TSB, rather than perpetual service calls?

Yeah, almost all the poor people in this video are living in a sort of hell. They are not really on the same plane of perceived reality as non-addicted people.

Yes! It should be much harder to convince a CSR who can see your plaintext answers that you're legit and don't know you were born in "Peoria" vs "eH2ochomheeVe6ti".

This is worth doing, as certain "vendor security vetting" services will check these settings on vanity/convenience domains they manage to associate with your organization.

Also interesting to note that a two-engine craft ordinarily has 200% the power it needs to operate, whereas a three-holer might only have 150%.

It does make one wonder--careless work, trivial problem, reuse of existing projects, writer portrays self as extremely productive, or some combination?

And you should be wary! Prefer instead a bounded thread pool with a bounded queue of tasks waiting for service, and also decide explicitly what should happen when the queue fills up or wait times become too high (whatever "too high&qu
