    Try not to do that in an uncontrolled file system. Filenames can and will have newlines, including trailing newlines, because evil people like myself inject them everywhere in our …

    This is why I tend to stick to POSIX shell scripting these days, avoiding even bash. The restriction does make some things too painful, though. Before the latest POSIX revision, ce…

    This comment gives a sliver of hope for us currently outside academia and in low income academic institutions: enthusiastic laypeople with access (read: funds) to the SOTA models c…

    I forgot to thank you, I didn't know qemu supported risc-v arch! I am already using it for various vms.

    For the record, I found programming in MISRA C guidelines really fun; but then again, I did it out of personal interest. If I had to do it professionally, I guess the pressure woul…

    Only tangentially related, but this is why I gave up on fountain pens. They are cool and elegant, far too cool to be a practical tool for me. I realized this at one time I was in B…
