It can't, but you're probably better off using trim/discard/virt-sparsify rather than shrinking filesystems. Even on filesystems like ext4 that support it, shrinking can cause strange fs performance problems.
Do you think it’s possible to calculate the relationship between the depth of the git data and the number of I/O operations?

There was a real turning of the historical tide between about the 60s and the 80s with regard to this sort of thing; we went from "new technology must be a miracle" to "we've had all these revelations of the hidden downsides - thalidomide, leaded petrol, CFCs, acid rain, nuclear fallout, superfund sites - that anything new is suspect".

A turing complete system doesn't necessarily mean it's powerful, or useful, it just means that it's equivalent with a turing machine and in the case of type systems, that usually happens because general recursivity is allowed.

We've never dealt with an extended outage of one or more AWS data centers for days at a time. How many govt/university systems would be unable to function because of direct or indirect dependencies on AWS-related services?

S3 going down for, let's say 4 days, would cause big havoc on so many projects and systems I know of.

I'm pretty sure most people have no clue how much of their data and systems functionality is reliant on AWS-related services.

> If people referred to packages by their proper hash (as one does when referencing values from IPFS), then we wouldn't have this problem. If people had a public key and added a key fingerprint that would also work, but would not provide any additional verification to the code (1).

The hash naturally changes with every release. The key fingerprint doesn't. Updating your dependencies to new releases is much, much more frequent than adding a new dependency; people are willing to put more effort into the latter than the former.

> You aren't even in Keybase. Have you personally participated in any keysigning parties? Can I find your public key details here?

Keybase encourages poor practices and as such I avoid it. But I've been to keysigning parties and my key's details are published any number of places. (Since adding one more is all to the good, the fingerprint is 400A C7D2 E7A1 802A AE2C C459 B1E5 712A 6D03 3D61)

What you are not being told by your favorite main-stream media - but is important to understand the "conflict" - is that the territory of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia was, prior to the end of the WW1, territory of Serbia and it was (together with Kosovo and Metohija and Raška [Rashka]) called "Old Serbia":

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Serbia

After the WW1, it was still a territory of Serbia (which was one of the winners) and that territory was brought by Serbia into the "Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes" which was later renamed "Kingdom of Yugoslavia":

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Yugoslavia

Now the question is: Why have Tito (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josip_Broz_Tito) and the Communists after WW2 drawn the lines of new republics in such a way that Serbia has essentially lost the territory?

What do you use to combat Vitamin D deficiency? [0]

"Known as the sunshine vitamin, vitamin D is produced by the body in response to skin being exposed to sunlight. "

"Vitamin D is essential for strong bones, because it helps the body use calcium from the diet. Traditionally, vitamin D deficiency has been associated with rickets, a disease in which the bone tissue doesn't properly mineralize, leading to soft bones and skeletal deformities. But increasingly, research is revealing the importance of vitamin D in protecting against a host of health problems."

If you're on an SSD/MTD/NVMe, you have TRIM, and scrubbing is a no-op no matter what approach you try. You need a spinning HDD for scrubbing to be useful.

Here is one way to do simple, secure scrubbing on Linux without any intrusive system changes. It is mildly restrictive, but works.

First, you need a small, dedicated partition, but it only needs to be around 16MB or so. Resizing an existing partition down (tune2fs will happily resize a mounted ext4 filesystem, but you'll probably still need to reboot to reload the partition table once you've resized that too) will give you a bit of space.

Now you have a small area of the disk that occupies a known range of sectors, and because you have no TRIM, writes to this area will be properly deterministic. Good.

Create and mount a new filesystem without a journal on the new partition. ext2 could work here (:D), you could `mkfs.ext{3,4} -O ^has_journal`, or you could use filesystem defaults and simply overwrite the entire partition with /dev/urandom later.

Make a sparse file with fallocate (make sure the file system you create the file on can handle sparse files) that is big enough to handle the biggest file.

Create a LUKS volume with a detached header inside the new sparse file, and store the detached header metadata into a file in the new journal-less partition.

Create an ordinary filesystem inside the LUKS volume.

Now you have a Rube Goldberg sparse file. You've moved the deterministic-writing/journal-less stage into a tiny key, which is a lot easier to manage than a whole gigabytes+-large partition.

As an alternative you could drop the key onto a flash drive, and nuke the flash drive when you wanted to kill the data. That's kind of wasteful though (and it carries the same flash-drive-quality risks as copying the only copy of the data itself onto the flash drive).

LUKS was designed such that if you lose the key(s) or the detached header, all that's left is statistically random garbage.

Considering that signature checking would not have prevented this attack that has actually happened, I would say that not having signed packages is not in-fact the bigger threat.

Or can you point us to a prior example of a successful attack that could have been thwarted with proper signature checking?
Location: Washington, DC, USA

Remote: Open for remote

Willing to relocate: With assistance (looking to stay in the USA or Canada)

Technologies: Prefer to work with: React, Redux, GraphQL. Can jump into Ruby, Rails, Backbone, and Node as necessary

Résumé/CV: I'm a developer with 4 years of experience working with an agency and a startup. I have spent roughly 2 spend working on front end and 2 as a full stack developer. My most recent work involved jumping onto an unfinished CMS built in Ruby on Rails as the sole developer and finishing it based on the client's needs while offering suggestions to improve the product throughout the process. It involved basic page management, refining the UI for easier content creation, and adding content types as necessary well as later adding event management and content tags. After initial release, I continued to work with the client to eventually migrate ~10,000 users into their database allowing all to login and access content based on account subscription level.

I am looking to grow as a developer and have begun to learn ReactJs as that is where i think a lot of the web is moving towards. I'm interested in a position working with React and the surrounding ecosystem. I'm open to full-time or remote and would love to join a smart team that can push me to new heights while hopefully contributing just as much to the team myself. - https://github.com/Sonicrida

Really? I thought CDMA was something only Verizon used for their network. I tried looking into it a bit prior to writing the original answer but I couldn't find anything other than a mention on the TDMA Wiki [1] which has a [citation needed]. Do 3G/4G networks across the world use CDMA as well? Because I know that in Sweden carriers are buying up large chunks of frequency bands to be able to increase 4G coverage, that shouldn't be needed with CDMA, right?

I'm not sure how your anecdote is supposed to show that users don't care about disk space used by an app, as opposed to not liking one particular attempt to reduce it. WeChat also includes a feature to manage storage space on a per-chat basis, and I have used it before when I ran out of space.

Thing is, some Android users (like me) are at the limit of their internal storage and some apps can't be moved to an external SD card for some reason. Before installing a new app (or indeed just an update), I have to decide which of the hellishly bloated apps on my phone I can delete to free up space.

A question regarding a CSS design decision I could never make sense of, and for which I hope I can get a sound answer here: why did CSS need to introduce its own property space and just didn't use SGML/HTML attributes for things such as line-height etc.? For a long time, there's been the dogma not to use HTML presentational attributes. But why? Attributes in SGML were exactly designed for the purpose to hold presentational properties, as shown in TFA.
