Ruby's un/pack is of course heavily inspired by Perl's: https://perldoc.perl.org/functions/pack However, slicing strings is a little easier syntax-wise than in Perl.

A couple other people mentioned ClearCase which has something similar if you use their NFS based thing, you could see file or directory history and info by accessing something like `foo.c@@/versions/5` (which isn't ordinarily

DuckDB and Microsoft Access (!) have a PIVOT keyword (possibly others too). The latter is of course limited but the former is pretty robust - I've been able to use it for all I've needed.

WHMCS is probably the easiest batteries-included tool for the job, giving billing, management, and a customer support portal. These could be unbundled or reinvented but for your average hosting company there's no point in doing so.

It's C++ programs in a Userscript format, which are compiled with a bundled instance of clang. Windhawk shows diffs of version changes, and most programs aren't much longer than a couple dozen lines, so pretty easy to visually ver

Schwab supports Symantec VIP but there's a python package to emulate it, which will give you a regular TOTP setup code.

I love LINQPad and happily pay for the license. My hope is that once he figures out the CLR host for Mac that he'll also come out with a Linux version of LPRun, since I want to automate some of my scripts on a cheap Linux VPS instead o

Many older .NET applications saved programmers from this by providing "C# scripts". The framework includes the compiler and then it's trivial to use the compiled artifact. You can still do it by including the Roslyn libraries

As a fellow 2012 Denon owner (AVR 3313) you can probably remove the RPi and just use HTTP. Just use devtools on your browser to do an action in the web UI and see what request it sends, then replicate it in shortcuts. And there's a int

I think the archaeology was part of the problem. Through its last days there was a lot of, well, garbage that absolutely nobody would be interested in. Like iPhone 3GS cases c.a. 2018 - who's gonna buy that?

It's still possible, even into places like WordPad. When it's rendered (i.e., when you're not currently editing the embedded item) it becomes a bitmap (at a usually not great resolution). So text in your spreadsheet isn'

I'm not sure what hifi system OP has, but another way to do this is by emulating the iPod remote mode over USB. It saves a bunch of trouble with emulating files. Denon/Marantz products have supported (and i believe still do) for a

Not really. Most of the tcl that gets written is very straightforward and business-logic. The framework you're using is pretty much just the host tool. Trying to integrate other libraries is often difficult if the tcl runtime is missin

You'd be surprised. I've worked at 2 large hardware companies you've definitely heard of and both use tcsh. I guess it's a holdover from the early-mid 90s when the shell story was very different from today, especially ac
