I mentioned that. However, push/pop statements require a minimum of 3 lines of pragmas to suppress an unused statement. This doesn't work, you'll end up disabling warnings for entire functions.

Warnings are good, but it's a pity there's no good warning suppression method which is compact (and does not require to disable the warning on the entire file). People generally "fix" warnings by writing equally useless

I still think notmuch is a great backend, but a poor client. Despite using mu4e, I still find Gnus superior in terms of pure reading efficiency (I still use Gnus regularly with gmane). Scoring and thread handling is just superior. There&#

If you're using IMAP, deletion is a thing. I often get people sending me huge stuff I have no intention to keep or sync. I need to be able to sync the deletion flag. This is a one line change I did myself and used for a long time,

Hopefully this is actually a MUA, and not a search interface with message-mode sprinkled on top? I tried using notmuch on emacs as my primary mail client for several months, but it falls short on so many things (just to name one: cannot del

The OP was right, though. Just making the data accessible and documented is a huge undertaking. It's truly a laudable effort. From the other side, I cannot imagine using the data without intimate knowledge of the entire setup. There

I find Discourse absolutely horrendous. Discourse mailing-list mode is a tack-on at best, and the formatting you get in mail notifications basically require you to be online to visit the link. And the gamification is also a huge put-off. We

You have to note: are you paying with the ATM circuit or with the credit card? The ATM circuit often doesn't require an additional signature (although in some countries like IT it's still required)

In EU you have a pin and you also have to sign the receipt. In supermarkets, cards (debit or credit) queue up the checkout line. Cash is way faster, hands down. I bothered to compare the difference once, since cards here are not the norm. W

Indeed, the number seems disproportionate. But it can be possible depending on the definition of "medication". I'd expect the number of mental health issues with an underlying [known] physiological nature (say, bipolar, schiz

Couldn't agree more. Gitolite is enough for most use cases, and for technical users which often use other tools there's no need for a web interface (or anything beyond gitweb anyway). We use it in combination with BugsEverywhere f

Absolutely. BASIC on a Sharp 6000 pocket pc[1] for example was limited to (32k or) 64k lines of 256 characters each. Like in many other basic versions, there was no automatic renumbering. Discovered it the hard way. [1] https://d

ripgrep doesn't yet support compressed files (z/gz), while grep/ack/ag do. On *nix it's extremely common to have sparsely compressed directories, from logfiles to non-changing documentation. I really wished ripgrep

The additional problem is that the search results are also incrementally updated. On an open dialog, I had in three different occasions click on a result just to automatically select an unwanted [new] result. Also, the path bar is long gone

I don't expect anything anymore from GTK given it's current track record. The latest issue I discovered was the 'letter' to filename shortcut you used to have in file dialogs. It now triggers recursive search instead.

You're confusing the binary format with the tamper protection, or file "sealing". The two features are really independent.

systemd is not perfect. Debugging systemd is still very hard. There is no way to simulate what actions would be performed to reach a target without actually executing them. There are plenty of issues related to boot and shutdown which are _

DNT is flawed. As an user, I have no way to verify that DNT is honored. As such, I assume nobody respects DNT and proceed accordingly by taking my own tracking countermeasures. You can also assume DNT is pretty much ignored. For instance, i

We used BeeGFS since it was called FhGFS on a cluster of 32 nodes for a total capacity ranging from 256tb-1Pb. BeeGFS is very easy to configure and maintain, outperforming Lustre for every task we threw it at. In fact, we never transitioned
