    Great if that works for you. Asking for money is common over voice or whatsapp in some countries for things like medical care, funerals, weddings, police "fines", school fees etc.

    It's often not the maintainer that removes a poisoned release, it's the npm security team/tools. So unless the whole team takes a month off, we're all safe.

    Prefer if x then :; else something; fi over if ! x; then something; fi Really? Colon is the appendix of the shell.

    Now I'm lost again - how do you "knock it into neutral" if the clutch isn't disengageable?

    Comment #48850617

    Ah not so bad then. I thought "stuck in gear" meant the clutch wouldn't allow degearing.
