Depends what you consider obvious - there's a parameter in the URL, I think called `tl`, which you can remove to get the original.

The difference being, as far as I know, that `[[` is the real syntax. This from what I remember helps in avoiding certain class of issues, gives better error messages and is more certain to be a bash built-in.

What I would worry about more is that it breaks `sh` compatibility.

What worked for me was disabling the feature of keeping the TCP connections alive. No idea if it's covered by 'networkoversleep', but this is as deep as I've went, considering I've then received a warning that "Find my Mac" will stop working after this toggle.

This could be an interesting alternative. Any ideas for a sport that anyone could enjoy easily? I wouldn't expect most people having fun with a tennis match for example.

Go 2, here we come 8 years ago

Yes, standard library. I understood the poster above you to suggest they shouldn't be a part of language by that's used by default, for sure though it would be convenient to have centralized implementation.

It doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere: the reason this article has emerged right now probably has to do with the 100 years since the end of World War I coming in a few days - November 11th according to Wikipedia (interpretation varies), also Independence Day for many countries.

Nobody needs a reddit app

Here it's true if you talk about official app, which you seem to be doing, but there's a couple of other options - apps made by community, which can be way better than official anything. I guess that Reddit doesn't want to fall behind and that's it.

It used to be the case that these checks are not in place when you're using 2FA. The downside is that you cannot use it without using a phone to register in the first place (though you can use your own generators afterwards)

Some games have very bad performance. VR games are noticeably slower than in Windows (but I've heard this being the case for native games; haven't tried, cause there weren't many). Some are actually faster in some aspects (loading screens for instance). And for many you won't notice any difference.

A bit tangential because of my interests, but it makes me wonder why they ordered 'Foundation' series. It would seem they might want to 'break the ice' with some original content, but it's such a difficult pick... But on the other hand, I feel with psychohistory idea, it could really resonate with other things company identifies itself - privacy in the age of Data Science/Big Data/Massive Statistics. Would be interesting to know if someone there thought about it on this level.

Never checked if it was NTFS issue, but it felt like logical explanation - when starting Stronghold Crusader through wine on Linux, loading took like 0.5s, compared to 10s or so on Windows.

Didn't bother to check the numbers, but it was order of magnitude for sure. Way more than just noticeable.

It surely is different. We at least managed to contain some of the issues in normal operation. Back in the day, crashing whole OS in BSOD/panic style was more common, drivers unstable, things written in not-so-safe languages more popular.

So ultimately it depends what do you mean by reliable - by itself, functionality might not be so much better, but yes, sometimes you don't mind as much as you would do back then.

It will we really hard to talk oneself out of this one.

I'm reasonably sure they knew it's a violation. So it feels like they're either prepared to fight over it, or testing the ground to see what the consequences are... After all, I would have guessed that they're in for major losses in ad revenue if most people sign out. So it's worth almost any risk.

IPython. Seems to work for simple stuff like `ls blah`, but I'm not aware how far this stretches, and is probably not super safe to use.

EDIT: Seems I've only tried too basic things - it works thanks to %automagic, and seemingly %man is a thing. Other option is to use %%sh or %%bash, but that's a bit verbose.

I have no idea if it's actually majority - maybe there's just a lot of people here who share the discontent and wanted to add their two cents.

Video instructions are usually directed to people who are beginning their adventure, and in programming I usually need to just skim over some text these days to know what's relevant for me and what not. I guess many people have the same sentiment.

For me videos were insanely useful trying to get into Blender. Something that helped me a lot, but I guess mostly thanks to my 0% knowledge of the topic.

As in, how the people who already experienced the 'chilling effect' online, had this projected on their offline life. I've also seen many people doing and saying all kinds of weird stuff online, but I'd expect the study not to be concerned with those.
