While your recommendation is sound: this is not only a rudely-worded take, but also missing the point of the parent comment.

I enjoy it quite a lot :shrug: Bash itself isn't a very big language, so I wouldn't call it "impossible to memorize".

Yep, you have it correct. I've got a note at the bottom of the README that I'm considering adding a config field to keep the .git directory, but I'm trying to keep pretty far away from git-in-git consequences/use cases.

>This tool looks like "submodules, but lighter", while repo is "submodules, but heavier". Looks to me like the motivation is for dependencies that are not hard enough to justify a submodule. I think you nailed how I w

Sure, but not all my code in a single repo is monolingual code, and not all of those languages have cooperative (or existing) package managers. Bash is a great example of something I wish I could stop copy-pasting between repos, and was act

Thanks! That AOSP `repo` tool is one I'd not heard of, so thanks for sharing! I actually haven't really put much thought into collaborative/mutlirepo development work using vdm -- the original intent was for it to strictly

Show HN: Vdm, a sane alternative to e.g. Git submodules(github.com)

On mobile so no idea if this a) looks good or b) runs (especially considering the command substitutions, but you could also redirect to temp files instead), but it's just something like this: N=0 while read -r URL; do d

That's really not that hard to add above. A lot of folks act like it's impossible to handle errors etc. in bash, but it's pretty straightforward -- certainly no more difficult than in any other language. The hard part, like w

I think it's very much your last theory -- used everywhere but not as interesting to tell people about as it might have been a decade ago. Queues are now Boring Technology(tm), and that's a good thing.

Definitely just as useful even if it is !

I never really even entertained the idea of agreeing with this until just this week actually, when I was putting log statements into bash functions that were supposed to return strings -- and failed for reasons I could not understand. Six f

Why would you want to use JavaScript in IoT scenarios?

I run Debinan Sid/Unstable, both as my home desktop (with XFCE as a DE) and as my headless WSLv2 OS on my work machine. I've had it on the desktop for something like, 4 years now? Before that, I ran Manjaro on the desktop since so

I believe they're talking about how abstractions tend to make people more productive. Operative term being "tend to", because I personally wouldn't use this tool either, but to each their own.

I wonder if they might be talking about `go vet`?

Do you know of any browser games that use Ctrl as the crouch key? That's the interface under discussion.

by ryapric 4y ago
Is this relevant to the post/discussion though?

I don't think you can capture/handle exit codes of subshells anyway, right? I've been operating under that assumption for years, and just don't do subshells if I can avoid them.

Weird that no one has yet to actually discuss `xonsh`, which the video is actually about. However, I'm about to do the same lol, and come out as a bash apologist against the sea of derision here. I've spent a decade writing code i

A comment above points out that it's a book originally written in Russian, so.

The same problems any imperative management within declarative config causes -- drift. If the tool you're using supports declarative configuration, all changes should be made exclusively via the declarative interface to prevent that dr
