Python is probably the language that popularized them, if not invented them. They’re saying the team doesn’t like using them.

My take is that other than C++, where it’s reasonable, forbidden language features are a smell for the team not having a healthy understanding of the language

I think some distros disable using RSA by default. Might need to use it explicitly.

Original grep was pretty much a wrapper around sed (or actually maybe ed, I don’t remember). That’s why it’s called g/re/p, which is the sed command to do the same thing.

Patents expire after 20 years, yes, but patents aren’t copyrights. No current copyright expires in 20 years. They all expire 70 years after the death of the author (or 120 after creation in the case of corporate with for hire)

I don’t know if it’s that cut and dry. If you study a Operative Systems class or buy a book about them, it’ll exclusively deal with the kernel.

Are reading what you write? It’s linux so it isn’t?

I don’t get this comment. Gnome is not trying to make a walled garden, and Microsoft has taken every chance they get at making walled gardens (Windows phone, windows 8 arm, various proprietary file formats and protocols), they just haven’t been very successful at it.

El título es bastante jailbait. Es la cárcel de baja seguridad, pero no es un nuevo capuchino según el mismo artículo

Según un informe de 2017 del Instituto Nacional de Derechos Humanos (INDH), las celdas de Capitán Yáber miden aproximadamente unos cuatro metros cuadrados y albergan a dos personas como máximo, mientras que cada habitación tiene catres metálicos para una litera. “No tienen ventanas, por lo que no hay luz natural ni es posible ventilar el lugar. Sí hay luz artificial que proviene de tubos fluorescentes y lámparas, cuyos interruptores son controlados por los internos”

Quienes conocieron ambas cárceles, Capitán Yáber y Capuchinos, dicen que coinciden sólo en el tipo de delitos, pues la amplitud de los espacios no es comparable.

Yeah, they’re mostly bits of hardware that turn ttl/serial into a USB device. Then you can use minicom or dterm to connect to the host. Mostly used for embedded development, but also useful for debugging servers that are not connecting to the network without having to lug a keyboard and screen.

After they’re connected, if they speak vt110, your terminal emulator can display everything properly

I mean Blade Runner did do it first, as well as Do Androids dream of Electric Sheep. (But Johny Mnemonic was at it before Blade Runner)

The sprawl trilogy does have a good enough and unique plot besides all of the groundbreaking cyberspace stuff

Nos robaron en el ranking del pan

If it’s a verb it should be a button, not a toggle

Yeah, I really liked the feel of the Pixel 3. Turns out that to make a plastic coat not feel cheap all you have to do is to not use cheap plastic

Ctrl+break doesn’t do anything on my machine. Ctrl+c stops a process.

when you format a 256GB drive and find out that you don’t actually have 256GB

Most of the time you have at least 256GB. It’s just you 256GB=238.4GiB, and windows reports GiB but calls them GB. You wouldn’t have that problem in Mac OS that counts GB properly, or gnome that counts GiB and calls them GiB.

(This is ignoring the few MB that takes to format a drive, but that’s also space on the disk and you’re the one choosing to partition and format the drive. If you dumped a file straight into the drive you’d get that back, but it would be kind of inconvenient)

Because they get paid to endorse it.

Yeah, that’s what I’m saying. The only available information is the metadata, not messages

Not really, they’ve always been big on being incompatible for the sake of locking in people: adb, FireWire, iPod requiring iTunes, etc.

You mean all that metadata? As far as we know, all messages are e2e encrypted and no one has proven it otherwise.

It’s because that’s not a common definition and it’s not even a good one. No normal person would call cloning stealing. Also, this completely misses lending, gifting, downloading a webpage or even renting. All of those would be stealing under this definition.
