In Unix files are pointers to pointers so you can have multiple files pointing the the same thing (hardline). You can’t do this in Windows and that’s also why you can’t delete in-use files or directories with files inside

It’s because the file system doesn’t have inodes. It’s nothing to do with Explorer

I think people with that mentality were unlikely to live in SV in the first place

I think the interface for `-d` is clunky, but here is the way it is intended to be used: $ while true; do > ls -d src/*.py | entr -d ./setup.py > done that way when a file/dir is added/removed it r

That doesn't solve the problem. You would have to go to every method to figure out which one it might be listed under. It needs to be in the browser/password manager to tell you which service was used.

Maybe it's just me but when I look at eBay I see a combination of luck and turning a blind eye to counterfeiting. You're right they make a lot of money but it doesn't mean she is a genius leader.

I did the same. Paper Trail and The Feed are effectively black holes since you have no way of knowing there are unread items in there. I also prefer inbox zero, essentially marking emails as “done” by archiving them. With hey you would do t

Meg Whitman seems to get a lot of undeserved credit for some reason. If I had run eBay and HP I think I’d be trying to hide that from my resume.

They also didn’t try to build the product with in-house engineers, they bought the (very good) company BAMTech.

What? Blockbuster operated under a franchise model. They didn't borrow money to open stores—it was local "mom and pops" doing that.

You gotta wonder how much easier it would be to put a stamp on a letter with an SD card in it sometimes

I feel Spotify makes it hard to listen to albums. I can queue up a song to play and it’ll then get back to my playlist, but if I play and album eventually it’ll reach the end and quit playing anything. Then I will have to stop what I’m doin

I genuinely apologize as I think I misunderstood. Of course I'm fine with a bit of jokes about tech but I think I didn't catch any intended sarcasm in your comment—in fact I think I took the direct opposite intention. I'm adm

I find iCloud much better than Google Cloud and I'm pretty sure I qualify as a "serious/real operator" any way you want to call it. I have no time or interest in hosting a custom solution. And I certainly have no need

"Serious operators" never want to put their files into iCloud Drive? They must be using butterflies then https://xkcd.com/378/

wow. I actually read and rewrote that word literally thinking it was "retaliation". I think that's what @elicash meant.

I think that's totally related for what I was getting at—great example. Of course you're right that there is almost certainly some level of collaboration here too.

I'm certainly not a lawyer, just a software engineer trying to understand the world a little better. That said, does the NLRA actually protect against this? Reading about it talks a lot about collective action and forming unions, but w

I'm trying to answer the question "Is this retribution?" Which has legal consequences.

Even though we might not like the idea, Californians can be fired simply for complaining though—correct?

Other commenters saying it isn't used as a verb are wrong. They're correct that people never say "I open-source softwared my last project." However you can definitely use "open-source" as a verb: "I open-s

it stands for "open-source software". It's never abbreviated as "OS" for obvious reasons.

We could debate the appropriate level of friction for running this class of software, but GP said: > Apple has always been far more controlling than Microsoft Notarization came out with Catalina.

I agree with you in terms of iOS but macOS is super easy to run custom software on. I might have to click a security box for non-notarized apps (but not CLI tools) but I don’t see that as a bad thing. When it comes to permission dialogs Win

There is something about this article’s style of writing that I just hate. I can’t quite figure it out but it reads to me like a bunch of filler around buzzfeed spam or something. Contrast that with the actual content which I found unique a
