dcron is very lightweight and has most of those features. Dunno about random delay/timeouts, but worst case those sound like a 10 line shell script away. https://github.com/dubiousjim/dcron
What makes you think adults don't like flavored liquids? Seems insane to suggest that adults would prefer the taste of ashtray over apple or orange (I like fruity aromas). I mostly vape without flavoring nowadays…
For anyone who wants to go a similar route I can highly recommend OpenWrt as the OS. Not only does it run on cheap routers, but also on big x86 machines and even in VMs and/or containers. For example, I run OpenWrt on…
If he had Twitter that would be a blast! Sadly he'd probably get banned like Trump's account. No fun allowed.
FWIW for portage (Gentoo) there is g-sorcery[0], which can create ebuilds for Emacs (m/elpa) and python packages automatically. Similarly there is also cargo-ebuild[1] which can create ebuilds for rust…
>If you don't need a display manager, you very well might not need elogind, Yes, that's how I do it. At boot a service auto-logins on all vts and fires up an X server with my WM. Since I already have to enter a password…

Sounds like a lack of exposure to me. With enough experience you should have no trouble to tell if others are speaking in a certain manner that is associated with male, female, child, teen, boss, subordinate, etc. etc.…
Same. I never check the "new" page, but this is the first time I've seen it and I've been reading HN almost daily for over half a decade. 2-3 years before Rust went 1.0 at least.
>OpenRC, ironically also reliant on DBUS. Not at all, although if you have any services that use dbus it might get started by one of them. On my system there isn't even a dbus service file that could be used to start…
That would suck for anything IPv6 (minimum MTU is 1280, as opposed to 576 or something around that).
You can add descriptive error messages when an error happens (like multiple mutable borrows) during macro expansion. Macros are just regular list code, so all runtime features like printing functions are available. You…
Common Lisp does have a "proper strong type system". What it doesn't have OOTB is is static type checking at compile time. Those two are orthogonal issues. Although with CLOS (object system) you get pretty close. Some…
What's the advantage of using the CFS quota mechanism over cgroups cpulimit? I've been using cgroups to successfully make heavy compile jobs unnoticeable by limiting CPU shares to "0" (essentially idle priority) and…
It used to be part of the kernel back in the day. It was called devfs. It was dropped because a userkspace implementaton is more flexible and easier to extend and tweak. udev also isn't the only choice, mdev also exists…
How could a rich existing power exert control over who and how someone uses bitcoin? There is no mechanism by which such control could be exerted. The worst you can do is monitor traffic and try to correlate wallets and…
>Windows 10 can run virtually all apps compiled against Windows 2000 just fine, and those apps did not have to bundle their own graphical toolkits. They do if they're buildtusing Qt, GTK, WxWidgets, etc. Also shipping…
I do create my own "EFI stub" by embedding the kernel and initrd in a GRUB image as memdisk using grub-mkimage. Then I sign that using my own keys and copy it over to the EFI partition. One cool thing about it is that I…
I don't share that view. While there are things that I'd really miss in 2000 era Internet today like Wikipedia, GitHub and maybe YouTube, the only thing that really sucked was the IE monopoly (almost like Chrome today)…
IIRC, the other way around. The editor who greenlighted the WIMP paper for print (and only because it was already an established name) regretted this decision once he saw the MACHO paper. Apparently he doesn't like cute…
IANAP, but they're (among others, like MACHOs, primordial BHs, etc.) potential candidates for dark matter, yes.
>The competitors here are nintendo consoles, and the playstation. Nope, the competition is GPD and other UMPCs. Valve is quite clear about the fact that this is a PC, not a game console. It's a portable gaming PC, but…
Of course a mathematician improves when gaining nowledge and understanding. The question is how fast that happens and how easily that can be applied in different contexts or how hard it is to even recognize when which…
No, that is correct. There are ways to avoid locks, but the stdlib implemtation doesn't do it. There are probably a bunch of crates that implemented concurrent BTrees, though.
There are ways to make it work. The simplest would be to just not do any splaying most of the time. No splaying means no locking is necessary, just an atomic read to check if anything changed. Apparently it's actually…
