It even can model 'vi', including modal input, exiting with :wq!, and it results in a file containing the entered text in the imagined filesystem.

If you restart the session and enter > echo test1 | md5 it will output another random 'hash' each time. But within one session it knows that md5 should produce the same output. Run…

So, if it's true that these KH-12 spy satellites are basically modified versions the Hubble space telescope, would it be reasonable to assume that Webb will get copied in a similar…

Your comment brings focus to the question of why reviewers agree to do these unpaid reviews in the first place. I assume your comment is in jest, and you were fully aware of the un…

This way you would trade in a null-byte-terminated variable length string for essentially a null-bit-terminated variable length number (plus the remaining string). I am not convinc…

The advantage 2 was only released in 2016. I myself have the advantage (1) since about 8 years. Sorry for being pedantic here, but that's why that statement tripped me up.

> The US economy around 1800 was the first economy in history to produce a consistent food surplus. Can you provide a source for this claim? Thanks.

Now the perpetual licensed version always lags 12 months behind in updates, i.e. you do not have a perpetual license for the past 12 months worth of updates at the time your subscr…

It's interesting that this story has already vanished from at least the first 100 'news' entries on HN, 9 hours after posting, and currently at 400 comments.

I wonder if Netflix would have to spin off their in-house productions once they reach $25B revenue. Or, if they don't, if the mobile platform providers could change their business …

I did something similar in Montreal (Bixi) a couple of years ago, in order to determine when I had to leave the house so that there was still a bike left at my station to go to uni…
