That data not committed to git can not be recovered by git should hopefully not surprise anyone. Neither is it the fault of your version control system, or any other system really, if you cannot access your server and are without backups.

This is nonsense. While it is true that they recently included the customary references to Satan, Israel and the USA in their communications, that is to be understood as allegiance to the shiites in Iran. It includes references to standard

There's a lot to say about how the right took over large parts of Christianity in the US. It seems to have been in the right backwater of the counterculture and very much on purpose. Before, Christians in the US were very much like Chr

I don't think so. It looks like a regular bank payment complete with an IBAN and everything. So you should be able to send from any bank (as long as you're not under US och EU sanctions). They are just using sloppy language. SEPA

"Goto is bad, throw an exception instead." I meet them everywhere. It's just obvious how strong culture is.

As with all good writing, it is hard for me to tell serious suggestions from satire. However, hpa seems to be the crazy genius type, so maybe it's all for real. The thing I'd like to know is, given that the kernel is written in &q

GNU grep is 100k lines of code (including header files and tests). That's probably just as complex as any random Android application. Yet I don't expect it to need a huge rework after 8 years. In fact, if it changed interface in a

This discussion has been had a thousand times over back when people said "chroot is not security boundary". Now people say "containers are not a security boundary", but they mean essentially the same thing. The thing is,

Where do Apple have a reputation for strong security? Compared to other mainstream operating system, they seem to constantly be the last to introduce things like stack canaries, non executable memory segments, and all that which is consid

Norway has a lot of hydro, but AFAIK no pumped hydro. I don't know why that is? It sounds like a reasonable idea, to even out the European prices. Perhaps it is not as easy as an armchair consultant would believe? Sweden seems to be in

I believe the rules are more lax so higher bacterial levels are allowed. It's one of those everyday things that is surprisingly different. It is common to keep uncooked eggs in the refrigerator at home.

Docker makes it really hard to do anything with cgroups. Unless you mean letting Docker manage everything about them, in which case you can configure nothing. Systemd did the cgroups thing right. Apart from the v1/v2 thing, but if you

That quote is taken out of context and does not represent the contents of the talk. It's all very speculative, and ties together CIA conspiracies with the history of AI, but if you're into that sort of thing it's thought prov

Do you not make the distinction between government and state in your language? The government usually provide little service, but the state do. The question whether you trust it as a single entity is a bit hard to understand. Do you mean tr

In the context of hydrogen storage, was it not obvious what "ammonia" refers to? We do not need an alternative to the Haber process, the idea is to use electrolysis to produce hydrogen from sea water. There is room for improvement

None of the commercially available (Western) reactor designs today are fast load followers, so you are dependent on having gas or hydro when you project for new nuclear power plants. That's one part of the reason why this stuff is poli

The reason one should write commit messages in the common form is to shave off a few seconds for every reviewer to immediately understand what is going on. It's not unreasonable (within the limits of sanity, of course), it's just

And for no particularly good reason! Sure, it's not great, but lots of things aren't. It's at worst a possible footgun, otherwise mostly cosmetic. It should never be acceptable to break working software for anything else than

That's the whole idea of using a system based on declarative state. As soon as the system is back up, the agent can resolve state again. You also keep a central copy of the state of every agent. You can absolutely do this by writing yo
