I would also add at least "sane default options", "continues downloads" and "retries on error" to the Wget column. I recently had to write a script that downloads a very large file over a somewhat unreliable co

There exist specialized quartz watches with battery lifes in the 15 years range - I am sure if there was any real demand it would be possible to build a digital watch that can survive a century without any service. While I appreciate the cr

How does the stability of Sid compare to an actual rolling release type distro like Arch?

This does not look that much different from knäckebröd , the (cheap) cracker bread you can still in the modern day buy in literally every supermarket of Sweden and Finland. The only difference I can see is that knäckebröd is always made

It's a common acronym across several different networks, especially in the early Internet. I am not exactly sure but I believe it stands for Network Information Center. FUNET is the Finnish UNIversity NETwork, i.e. the early research n

OP edited their wording after my inquiry to add the word "before". Although I am sorry for the misunderstanding, it seems to have generated some interesting conversation.

Just curious, how did you find Covid "exciting"? Making lots of money on the bear market?

Thanks, it makes sense. I don't understand why this was downvoted.

This looks promising. One question I had after reading about its git compatibility is that they seem mostly focused on the use case where a Jujutsu user accesses a git repository (hosted by e.g. GitHub) with jj. But does it support the conv

That's a very bold claim, any evidence you can provide to support it? How do the governments sidestep Certificate Transparency, which makes the simple possession of the signing keys ineffective? And have there ever been reports of deve

There's also the set & setting that is good to consider. For example, I bet lots of the scripts in my current employer's DevOps infrastructure have filename handling bugs that could've been avoided by meticulously followi

It would certainly be an interesting next turn of events if Google made an offer to buy out Reddit - just for the user-generated content and to stop the site from self-destructing, i.e. the golden goose offing itself. It's unlikely giv

Yes, they will need to be completely transparent about their outlook at the time of the IPO, and disclosing the current and historical active user counts is a pivotal figure in that data. I wouldn't be surprised if this move actually d

Yeah, like I fail to see how would an AI even cause human extinction? Through some Terminator style man-robot warfare? But the only orgnizations that would seem capable of building such killer robots are governments that already possess t
