# mount -o loop file.iso empty_dir

doesn’t require rare earth minerals

I recommend you look at how electrolysis is done.

Yeah, by default kill sends sigterm, and not kill the process at all.

It’s the correct behavior, sending sigkill by default would be harmful. Now take a look at how killall worked in Solaris (before it adopted GNU).

The NT kernel was all built to emulate object orientation (read Smalltalk, not C++) style message passing. That’s because it was the 90s, and it’s the new technology kernel.

So yeah, expect everything to have more flexibility sending data around, and no standardization at all so you can’t have any generic functionality.

Even worse. You’d get from Windows 7 to Windows 11.

Why, indeed?

Yeah, it’s because it’s not the school that is bullshit.

It’s some of the stuff people do there. At the same time, some aren’t. And we are incredibly bad at telling the difference, and worse than useless on doing that at scale.

If you measured the water temperature, the thermometer has a better measurement than the presence of bubbles or not. And it’s the temperature that is important, not the bubbles.

So… 203 °F = 96 °C…

That’s right on the margin where bubbles are really inevitable. It you are heating the water in a very homogeneous way, and has a lid or some salt dissolved, it’s possible you don’t see any bubble. It’s not common, but hey, everybody sees a few uncommon things in their life.

Just let C++ die already, and stop pretending it’s a reasonable thing to compare other languages with.

If you can’t do it in C, you are better in Java, Python, Haskell, whatever.

The length of variable and function names should be proportional to the size of the code that can potentially call them. And preferably segmented in namespaces, explicit modules, or something like that.

I belong to all of them. Same question.

Or at least say what’s broke…

The worse people are the ones that generate most of the interactions, so every side is biased.

At the same time:

“We want the robot to be the scariest thing possible, that the protagonist will never adapt to.”

“Yeah! Dog shaped but no dog personality!”

I think we have something with dogs…

An Israeli intervention in Iran will end well. No way that can turn badly. None at all.

Almost everything on the market is shit and will destroy your hair. That includes the 6 in 1 shampoo, men just usually have less hair.

Bring back the other guy Pope Francis.

I’m pretty sure the Church has rules about that since the Middle Ages.

Didn’t you know that Nobel prizes were bearer tokens?

By definition doing nothing is instantaneous, isn’t it?

Temperature, speed, flow rate, cooling.

In other words, close to anything. Follow a calibration guide. Also keep in mind that some filaments just don’t make good overhangs.

So… If Trump is the one calling the cards in Venezuela right now, will he answer for their new policy of arresting journalists? Also, is he the leader of the Maduro’s political party now? Because they are still the ones sitting in government…
