It’s a line from The Kinks’ Lola.
The first bit, not the bit about fascists. But I suspect they’d be on board with that.

Some would call the former command cat abuse.
In short, unless you want the contents of a file printed to stdout (or multiple files concatenated), the command can probably be written without cat
, instead using the filename as an argument (grep pattern file
) or IO redirection (cmd < file
).
Stylistics and readability are another thing though.
I think parent is referring to Merkle trees.
How’s the software support?
I have an Orange Pi 5+ which is better than a raspberry pi in every way…except the software support.
Did they really take artistic liberties to make the Bay Bridge coloration look like the Golden Gate?
scolding hot metal
I like the mental imagery — it’s not scalding hot, no, the metal is actively chastising you.
…the San Francisco gold rush in 1949.
Classic CS major, making an off-by-one(hundred years) error ;)
I have some bad new for you about Linux…
Personally, I think the person who cooks should clean the cookware and the kitchen. The incentives are then aligned, and at least for me, it makes me a much tidier cook.
Also, cooking can be fun, cleaning not so much. Separating cooking/cleaning duties just punishes the person who doesn’t get to cook.
Yabai+sketchybar make tiling+virtual desktops…at least usable on mac.
Of course, I’d take i3 any day of the week.
Maybe in the before times, but with the LA residents’ response to the fascist in chief, I think most of us in San Francisco are honored to share the state, and be confused, with Angelenos.
Just keep the Dodgers in SoCal. This is the Giants’ city.
When I hear the term, I think of the Rainbow cover of the Quatermass song. But that’s just me.
It’s interesting that, with Python, the reference implementation is the implementation — yeah there’s Jython but really, Python means both the language and a particular interpreter.
Many compiled languages aren’t this way at all — C compilers come from Intel, Microsoft, GNU, LLVM, among others. And even some scripting languages have this diversity — there are multiple JavaScript implementations, for example, and JS is…weird, yes, but afaik can be faster than Python in many cases.
I don’t know what my point is exactly, but Python a) is sloooow, and b) doesn’t really have competition of interpreters. Which is interesting, at least, to me.
Did the developer use any version control though? SCCS has been around since the early 70s, RCS and CVS since the 80s. The tools definitely existed.
Also, it was a single dev, which makes SCM significantly simpler!
California doesn’t allow “use it or lose it” vacation policies. Vacation rolls over up to a reasonable amount, which apparently isn’t super well defined, but my employers have generally set a limit of 2x annual.
No doubt related to Johnson noise.
PhDs in many fields, particularly the physical sciences, are funded. Lost wages are real of course, but you can often come out the other side without accumulating any debt.
Coming from Debian, it was…not expected. I understand how and why it happened, but the user experience was surprising.
Debian keeps the previous kernel around, which makes perfect sense to me — in the event that a kernel update borks your system you can just load the previous one. This would probably only happen due to out of tree modules (looking at you, Nvidia…).

I once took a Lyft and the push alert was, “Look for Jesus in a white Toyota Camry.”
