Not sure about saving but, more importantly for me, it can read sqlite DBs, which has been a godsend whenever I need to take a quick glance at some random DB just to see what kind of tables it holds and what does the data look like. I kno

The latest addition to my renaming-toolbelt has been `perl-rename'. This thing is just wonderful: I can unleash all the power of perl-based regexes to rename things in bulk. Case in point: I had a directory containing thousands of .jpg

So what happens at the very first boot (e.g. after system installation, or cloud instance just being spawned)? Is that the only circumstance where it would be OK to block? Does OpenBSD trust RdRand for such occasions?

You can see this in action on musl source code, which is arguably a much more readily understandable implementation of libc: - Function that actually parses /etc/hosts is name_from_hosts() , implemented here: http://gi

In the very same post where Google announced Java 8 being generally available on GAE standard [1], they also stated Java 9 support was already in the works. Of course, actual timelines are not publicly known yet, but I wouldn't bet my

Bear in mind this article was written back in March 2017; quite a few things have changed/improved in GAE-land since. To name a few, off the top of my head: - Java 8 is already generally available on GAE standard and, on top of that, p

I _love_ jq. It's been an incredibly useful tool for me since I discovered it ~6 months ago. However, article mentions "jq -n"; I personally find jq syntax less appealing when it comes to generating JSON instead of parsing it

I guess you meant 36 to the power of 5, instead of factorial. 36! is a much bigger number than 60 million; same goes for 1,025,109 a few lines below

That's called panspermia, and no, it hasn't been ruled out. Main problem with it though is that it doesn't explain how life as we know it came into existence, it simply shifts its origin from Earth to somewhere else

Agreed. After a few mins of reading, it became annoying enough that I felt an urge to remove it via dev-tools. Nice content, nonetheless.

Yes, of course they're correct; however, invoking gcloud is comparatively much slower than just curl'ing against the metadata server (you know, no Python code to interpret in the latter case). With regards to JSON, not sure what y

I use xcape [1] to have the best of both worlds: a quick press-release tap means Escape (great for vim), while holding it down makes it act as Ctrl (great for shell and other stuff). It's wonderful :) [1] https://github.com&

This is an interesting point. Which makes me wonder: is 3.5 GIPS a realistic measure of nowadays commodity CPUs? Because those figures seem to describe CPU clock frequency instead, and it turns out that most instructions take more that 1 ti
