You assert that ECC RAM being necessary for ZFS is just a myth but provide no justification for why that is untrue. Is it not the case that if you don't have ECC memory, ZFS could …

This seems to store the zfs send stream. That's a bad idea. > Incremental ZFS send streams do not have any of these properties and full ZFS send streams only have a few of them. Ne…

Patchwork is used by the Linux kernel: https://patchwork.kernel.org/ When I saw your submission title I thought it was that Patchwork.

> Hualien was 5.1 at 15.9 km That's just an aftershock. The main quake was three days ago. M 7.4 according to USGS: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000m9g4... …

One pitfall of this is that the decompressed contents of your initramfs must fit within half of your physical RAM since Linux decompresses it into a tmpfs. Or if you set rootfstype…

I'm very confused by your comment. The grandparent comment talks about using the gitrevisions syntax in a GitHub URL to search the reflog stored on GitHub. Nothing to do with your …

Yep. The Transaction type has just an amount field: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/blob/master/packages%...

Last I checked it didn't even have a notion of currency, let alone multiple currencies.

That's not a reasonable requirement at all. A common recommendation nowadays is to have passphrases..

I just received mine. It's indeed great!

Wait till you forget your password one day.

Firefox has way too many components to be "just one repo you can fork".

> They're the ones who have normalised constant churn and thus needing to keep drivers for hardware, sometimes many years old, up to date year after year or even month after month.…

I can't believe people are trying to extrapolate this situation into how someone would act as a manager in a company. Can't you see that the kernel has its own conventions and prac…

> A patch is a patch and the author should be credited as such. But the patch was not taken. The maintainer fixed it a different way. So credit is given for reporting the issue and…

No, that's not what "Reported-By" means. The kernel community has different conventions. This entire HN comment section is ridiculous with everyone acting as if the author wrote an…

Then write your own wrapper on top of Git.

As someone who partly works on the Linux kernel for a living I still don't really know what your point is.

Isn't this just how mounts work? If you have a something mounted to /apex/whatever and each app has a separate mount namespace, then mounting over /apex/whatever in your namespace …

Why? As someone who's lived here for more than 20 years, I really don't know what you mean.

cgroups aren't even the main thing. The main thing is the mount namespace.

No, I don't think they can really fork it. How are they going to get support for new hardware in their fork?

Then Debian is the wrong distro for you. Debian is for people who want to configure a server once and have it stay running and secure. "Stability" in Debian's context means _versio…

The reason for this is that in Windows the DE is part of the system so it knows what to keep in memory. On Linux the DE and shell and htop is just another program so when the syste…

Definitely not elegant. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/build-supp... I rather have a kernel-level filesystem remapper.
