How (if you saw that need) did you address permissions concerns, e.g., around any Git users being able to force drop all files from a backend? Back (long time ago) when I was looki…

It’s been a couple of years since I’ve last used it, but if you want container orchestration with a relatively small footprint, maybe Hashicorp Nomad (perhaps in conjunction with C…

An interesting related project is the AdNW ( http://www.adnw.de/ ) layout, which was created by defining metrics based on Dvorak’s ideas and running a genetic optimization algorith…

Since Nix packages are distribution-independent, once you have it packaged with Nix, you could theoretically skip packaging for Ubuntu etc., but of course that may raise the bar of…

This is completely dependent on your location and the size of the company. E.g., when I recently looked into the stats for Germany, the average annual income for a developer in a s…

Self-signed will work just as well, since no MTA talking to you requires the cert to be trusted (maybe DANE is required now in that case, but I was also using self-signed before I …

German users might also be interested in the AdNW layout ( http://www.adnw.de/ ). They started out with Neo’s excellent and logical arrangement of the non-alphabetical layers, but …

It might be prudent to have GnuPG return an error exit code instead of just printing a warning on stderr. Currently, it seems that clients (at least when using the shell interface)…

I’ve used https://github.com/ericchiang/xpup for this a few times.

In general you don’t need GDPR for that. It suffices to be a copyright holder to the content made accessible on the Wayback Machine.

Folks interested in playing with cellular automata might also be interested in the desktop application Golly ( http://golly.sourceforge.net/ ).

Interesting! So in that case one could defend the need for escaped whitespace. Still leaves automatic variables, I guess.

My question was aimed at ops generic statement. As for Make, it originally wasn’t clear to me where the issue was supposed to lie. Lines in rule bodies are handed off to the shell,…

Additionally, not every shell expands variables the way Bourne-based shells do.

I don’t quite see how Unix tools have trouble with spaces in filenames. Could you detail some cases where the space handling is not due to the shell , as opposed to the program bei…
