Even at the Fortune x00 companies I've consulted for, I believe I would have been able to get that approved. Any time you are asking people to manually administer boxes, those people are going to want tooling for that job. Manual deplo

As I noted above, the tmux command send-prefix will send the command prefix character to the process tmux is managing. So if you open a connection to a remote system and run/connect to a tmux session there, and you have the same comman

As c256 surmised, I use kill to send signals other than SIGKILL. I don't think I've ever even known about the C-\ or C-y bindings for SIGQUIT. I also hardly ever use shell job control, to the extent that I have an alias fg that do

Not really, the English word "cock" has a very different vowel than the French "coq" - https://youtu.be/bIraCzL3dtI?t=4s is a pretty fair exemplar. It's a lot more like the "o" in "jo

Best thing I ever did for tmux was change the command key prefix to "C-\". With caps lock mapped to control, this makes tmux commands available with almost no hand motion, just a slight reaching out with the pinkies. It also resto

The clothing industry could really use some a shared, standard set of measurements. Even though bodies are all different, most of them have a lot in common. When three pairs of pants with the same waist "size" can vary in circumfe

Not to argue that point necessarily, but there's been only the one success of significance, the UFC. Pride went out of business 10 years ago and the organization founded to replace it, Dream, went out of business only a few years later

This reminds me of the description of traffic on the Motie home world Mote Prime in "A Mote in God's Eye" I found this quote from it at the following link: http://aramink.com/blog/2012/08/31&#x2

In the Sabbasava Sutta of the Pali texts ( http://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/mn/mn.002.than.html ), the Buddha says that there are six types of wrong view about the self: > As he attends inappropriately i

I reflexively dislike the notion, but am trying to consider it with an open mind. The notion that a subtree of the DOM and some JavaScript that manipulates it, designed together to create a single functional component, represent a single co

C is just portable assembler, ask him why he's got people wasting company time and cpu cycles on such a thing. I'm sure you're targeting x86, time to put on your big boy pants.

You can do walking meditation. Once you have a basis in concentration practice, it's just about continually returning to awareness of the present moment. It's common to alternate sitting and walking meditation during extended sess

I too fit that description for some time. Vim is what I would use when starting an editor to do something to a file, and emacs when wanting to live in the editor and reach out to external tools like a repl for some extended time. Using emac

Yes, many people raised in Buddhist households would say that, but it's not an accurate representation of what the Buddha taught, based on the Pali texts which are the earliest written record. You can decide whether that means it'

GitHub Enterprise is an appliance VM you run internally. It's charged per seat. The last enterprise-y company I was at used it primarily because you keep your code inside the firewall, but also because the pricing model is more aligned

No. What you are calling 'fixed' is a local hidden variable - an internal state that has yet to be measured but is already determined. This state of affairs is ruled out by Bell's Theorem - https://en.wikipedia.org

I wouldn't reply just to say that I map caps lock to control, like so many others. Perhaps a poll that gave the most common remappings, and let people specify more unusual ones in the comments, would gather more respondents for the com

I second the motion. I've used fastmail for years. It's been utterly dependable, worth every penny. I moved to them after deciding that running my own imap server was just too much hassle.
