System V init could restart a service, that's how you got to log in after logging out. Even so, you actually need init to restart your important service process that should never die in the first place? Now that's just sloppy ;)

What else would you wish for? A registry that can get randomly corrupted, complete with nonsensical keys? That makes no sense. We had a perfectly working init called System V init. That's an alternative here, you may be looking at th

Can't help you with Windows, but I'm interested to see what happens under Ubuntu. It's on my todo list for tomorrow (by date, not by priority).

Not really, I just prefer the Unix philosophy of doing one thing and doing it well. I hated upstart when it was introduced too, it broke stuff so I had to replace it with the unsupported (but fully functional) sysvinit every time. I still d

As a user, I can't tell what service is started when by which config file and where it should go. multi-user.target.wants? default.target.wants? Why are there windows-style .ini files and why are they all symlinks to /usr? Is it f

The video appears to be an mp4 (the network monitor says so) and it should work fine (it does here). Please ensure you have the latest FF version, available from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ (in

You're saying it's a 0 or a 1?

Because upstart is easy and systemd is difficult.

Or Scientific Linux.

That's nice, but can you "yum install upstart"?

That seems a bit inefficient to me, you'd end up with both binary and textual log files.

It's quite an audacious release note. As if millions of users are suddenly going to forget about cat, head, tail, more, less, grep, awk, sed, fmt, etc. etc. that are only still useful if you learn how to journalctl and convert those bi

Perhaps we could make trackers more intelligent and have them combine peer pools, so they create something like a venn diagram of torrents. In addition to telling you which peers are available, it'll tell you what to request from them.

Nice work, especially "Wave" and "Circle" because they're more likely to be recognised as such. (Similar animations are already seen in the wild.)

Do it like how Reddit does it, simply replace instances of $username with [deleted].

Why is it impossible to delete an HN account?

That makes no sense at all. Generation X/Y/Z, sure (except does it roll over after Z and would that be AA or just A?). But millennial? The name implies turn-of-the-millennium, not before as that would be a premillennial. Back in t

It's not specified how to create this .data file from the original game. It appears to be an unviewable png file, a format which didn't exist back when the game was released. The original game can be downloaded here: http:/&

Does not compute. Millennial "women" are 12 or 13.

My only wish for Eclipse is that it doesn't have Eclipse as a build dependency. However weird that may sound.

You're on HN, so I'm going to have to ask you to back up your claims.

By that logic TLS, PGP, etc. should only be available to governments because it can help terrorists to hide their communication in ways that cannot be decrypted or broken into. And let's outlaw pressure cookers, because terrorists have

In this case, everything should be made public because the government needs to be held accountable. Governments should serve the people, not the other way around. Without proper scrutiny, there's no way to tell if the proper balance is

What upsets me most is that NRC is withholding information in name of "US national security". Having a crooked government is bad, but when journalists rather side with the man than stand up to him (as they're supposed to in a

If there only was some way of reading one's mind. You could create a device that holds your hand and hums your favourite tune as you cross the street, tell you when it's time to go pee-pee and tells you a cute story when you go to

I'm always confused when "portable" and "for $OS" appear together in a title.
