Why do I enjoy writing shell scripts then?
My own and some other actually way more informative criticism of Orwell got deleted by the mods.
> So once again, let’s invite the obvious: Orwell is lying when he calls himself a socialist. And again, once the possibility is admitted, the evidence piles up. Read Orwell’s correspondence with poor Victor Gollancz…

This article's list of privilige dropping tools is missing setpriv(1) from util-linux, which is the only one actually installed on my system.
Imagine how many they would sell if it ran on something else besides a switch. I'm not paying $500 just so I can play the three switch games I'm interested in.
The main reason English is used so much is because of the British (and later US) empire, and not because it's easy as a second language (that depends heavily on what someone's first language is). Empires always spread…
The pointer/array confusion in C makes this way harder to understand than it has to be. The other thing is the syntax, which is too clever and too hard to parse in your head for complex expressions. Both of these things…
In Emacs, undo makes an undo pointer go down in the undo stack. Pressing undo again goes back another step. If you do any other regular edit, the pointer starts over at the top of the undo stack. Undo puts its own edits…
You can save more energy probably if you only put a little bit of water, and then steam the eggs in the pot (no need for a steamer basket, just put the eggs in the shallow water). Also, apparently, peeling is easier…
You sure? Germany is a (shit) coffee country and everybody has had electric kettles since the 90s.
And nothing of value was lost.
What is PDB?
When will they add a slice (fat pointer) type? I.e. a generic version of > struct T_slice { T* ptr; size_t len; }; with all the syntactic sugar and bounds checks added in. This could catch so many out of bounds issues…
I'll add that side effects alone can influence depression scores. Any medication that de- or increases sleepyness will change the score of any questionaire when taken at the appropriate time of day.
UHT to my taste also adds slightly bitter flavor. I grew up drinking fresh milk but my parents at some point switched to UHT and so did most people I know. I'm not sure if the middle ground longer-shelf-life type is…
Why though? They specifically suspect fructose of causing this, and starchy grains contain no fructose.
Not an expert on how they do it, but I've played a few. The logic in these things is excellent, they won't ever give you an unsolvable game (and the Zelda ones have been playtested to death at this point). I think they…
The problem with Facebook is that it's too big. Different online communities have different standards of what sort of behaviour is acceptable. Facebook is effectively splintered, there is no one community and so there…
I don't know what reasons other people have for refusing to answer. As a bit of pedant I just wanted to explain why I personally don't like them, it has a lot to do with being vague, abstract, unclear. Confusing really.…
You are right, they do this, especially in the more tedious longer ones. I think improving these things is difficult, because of you change the questions, you also loose all the accumulated data, and maybe now you might…
