Another one I've seen a few times with find (although it is actually more an xargs thing than a find thing), usually not with any bad consequences at least, is something like this:

find . -type f | xargs grep foo

You expect to see all the "foo" lines from your files, each prefixed with the file name and a colon. And that's what you get most of the time.

But sometimes you might get a foo line without the filename prefix.

Why? Because grep only adds the filename prefix when there is more than one filename argument. There are two ways that might come about in the above command.

The first is if the find only finds one file.

The second is if the find finds so many files that xargs has to invoke grep more than once. It can happen that there is only one file left to do when it gets to the final grep invocation.

Simple fix:

find . -type f | xargs grep foo /dev/null

This predated DevOps: we were using the Carnegie Mellon Capability and Maturity Model (CMM) which split roles into Plan, Build, Operate and Control with me in the Operate tier. I proposed the change, got Build to schedule and release it but I didn't get buy in from the architect of the system. He was toweringly, incandescently angry that I had dared touch his design. To the point where I think he tried to get me fired over it. Fortunately cooler heads prevailed because really I was right and it was all just an ego thing on his part. I took a page from my boss who was masterful at dealing with these kinds of things. We buried the architect in all things operational to the point where he eventually asked us to stop and grudgingly allowed we knew what we were doing. I don't know if he believed it or just wanted the emails to stop.
For Cronitor, we did it when we needed replication.
I used to use Evernote before it stopped being good and keep kicking you off your devices after the 2nd one. New Notes app on OSX is actually pretty good now, just change the silly font it comes with something normal. It syncs to iCloud on mac and iPhone and across all your Apple devices. It does merges incredibly well. I remember Evernote every now and then would duplicate ton of my notes because it couldn't resolve a merge conflict, this has never happened on Notes. Give it a go!
I can't find the article but I once read a fascinating theory that life is simply the evolution of entropy. The universe constantly trying to equalize, take higher energies and equalize them. Like a rock on a ledge there is energy waiting to release. Once all the energy is release the universe will end. The theory argued that life is simply the universe finding the most maximum way it can convert energy from one form to the other. I can't find the article at the moment but will continue looking. If correct it argues that life would be fundamental throughout the entire universe.

Edit: Found it, it talks about thermodynamics and entropy being the inevitable outcome.

I'm up to about 4 years of history at this point. I use a dumb bash hook that sorts and reloads the history on each command execution, and yes, it's getting a little slow. I wish I could do this through some daemon-based DB-backed system but this works for now. Maybe I'll switch to zsh when it gets too slow.

The reason I have the hook reload and sort on each command is so that I can use a dozen screen sessions at once and:

1) they don't overwrite each other's history

2) each session's history is instantly searchable to the others

3) sorting is useful because each session prepends a session ID to the commands, so that Ctrl-R backward search can always hit the current session's commands first. And I can reboot/restart screen and recover history in each session.

(edit: I looked at the zsh-db project the other poster linked, and this does pretty much the same thing just probably slower since there is no DB involved).

There's actually not real evidence that Jesus even existed. The "official" gospels were chosen in the council of Nicaea in the year 325. There were lots of other gospels wildly contradicting each other, which were arbitrarily dismissed. Even the chosen gospels contradict each other. The writers of the gospels were born between 50 and more than 100 years after the alleged story they're telling. No roman or jew historian of the time even mentions Jesus, and some mentions usually used to claim otherwise are either a medieval addition, or not really a mention of Jesus. I won't go through all otherwise this post would be extremely long. The myth of Jesus' life has many parallels with other mythical figures, like Mythra, Amon Ra, and others, which probably influenced and converged into the figure of Jesus. It was probably considered to be mythical until someone decided to make it historical for political reasons. There were also lots of "Messiah's", which was more expected to be a political and military leader to raise the Jews against the roman oppressors. Even if there was a man with a life similar to what is described in the gospels, minus the miracles, it wouldn't have been god anyway, so it doesn't really matter, but there's absolutely no evidence of that, so most likely there wasn't.

So, for macOS — where static executables aren't viable — you would need to ship all pre-linking components and then let the user assemble them.

You could ship those elements in a signed DMG, but it would be up to the user to assemble them, and so the user would not be able to codesign them under your developer ID.

Since they would not be able to compile and run the app as your developer ID — it would have to be theirs, since they're the ones linking it — the app won't have access to any ID-linked features such as iCloud syncing, Apple push notifications services, and so forth.

So that would imply that it's outright impossible to use this "static linking" bypass on MacOS when code signing is enabled, since you can't falsify the original signature's private key in order to sign the executable and gain access to signature-enforced platform capabilities.

I guess it would probably work fine for Linux folks, and you could always sign it with your own ID, but this certainly is not "compatible with signed executables" — to answer the original question asked upthread.
I predict the predictions will remain very dire until December 2020. Then they will back off, probably with little note of explanation.

solidwood faceplates are not uncommon. take a stroll down the electrical section of a major chain hardware store and you should be able to find a few. a lot of them seem to be made of bamboo. as for the dielectric properties, even in a “humid environment” its unlikely to be an issue. i mean, does a foggy morning short every outlet without a protective cover? if your voltages were high enough, sure you could draw an arc through the humid air...but it seems like you would have to hit closer to the kV range

> The costs of integrating a bought tool are also overlooked in most of these conversations. External tools are marketed well but don’t always deliver on their promises of being easy to use or setup.

Exactly, for a lot of problem domains, the cost of integrating a third party solution is nearly equal to the cost of writing from scratch, because the hard part isn’t the problem space but the environment-specific configuration.
The catholic church has unbelievable real estate locations in Europe. The arch diocese Cologne has 12 billion in assets.

If you count the real estate, it is easily at least 500 million per historic city in Europe. This is a rough estimate (area for 500 houses in absolutely top locations).
I use a mix as well. I think plaintext lacks three qualities that are very important to me:

1. Discrete structure/form. Yes you can enforce this yourself, but it's not inherent to the system. This means it takes some additional layer of work to group and move items around (e.g. of trying to keep in a prioritized order).

2. Free-form drawing/diagramming.

3. A built-in notion of time.

All of these are very important to me. Being able to group and shuffle the order of discrete items like todos is very nice for categorizing and prioritizing. Arranging future concerns on the basis of time (I have hard-time, soft-time, and any-time sections of my lists) is important for forecasting. And being able to freely draw is really important for things like architecture and logic diagrams, or UI mockups, or anything abstract that has structure (like a graph or list).

Where text really does shine, IMO, is logging/journaling and capturing knowledge bases or project details. Being able to just dump that stuff somewhere in a stream of consciousness manner and search it later is very useful.

My personal system is to use a pocket-size Moleskine (soft cover) and Microsoft Office tools, which is nice because I run Linux but have to deal with Word and Excel junk all the time anyway. Excel is great for organizing tasks in a GTD-ish manner and moving items around in a discretely, Word is good for checklists and knowledge bases, OneNote is a solid journal, and Outlook is a good calendar for week-ahead type planning. They also all support photos, so I can snap pictures when I want to persist things from my physical notebook such as diagrams or ideas.

I really don't think there's a silver bullet when it comes to tools or systems, so you should start from a fine-grained understanding of your needs and work from there. But plaintext as a format has pros and cons like everything else.

It doesn't work for chords for me, but for playing the melody by ear without any talent whatsoever there's a very simple trick that my uncle (who's a proffesional musician and plays many instruments) taught me in less than 1 hour:

1. start with any note (don't need to be in the same key as the original song - if you don't have absolute hearing just don't worry about that)

2. remember the song you're trying to play in your head and consider if the next note sounds higher in your head than the first one or lower

3. guess how much higher/lower and try to play it quietly - usually 2 or 3 tones is a good guess, if it's not 2 try 3 if it's not 3 try 1, etc. - it sounds bad after the first note if you hit the wrong one so you will know when you hit the right one, and there's not that many reasonable options, usually you will get it in 2 or 3 tries

4. when it sounds good you know it's the right note so you hit it hard to have a reference fresh in your memory and go to the next note in your head and repeat the steps

This is all you need to learn to play any melody from hearing it by trying it for 15 minutes or so. Eventually you get very good at guessing the intervals and can play any melody by ear in real time

I still can't play chords by ear (I can kinda cheat by playing chords based on every second note in the melody or so - it isn't dissonant but sound meh).

I don't fully agree with this characterization. My girlfriend and her brother have left the church and there seems to be zero love lost in the family or their friend group that they grew up with. I know that this does happen to many people but it is not a uniform experience.
It’s absolutely tragic that LSP isn’t meant to work remotely, because the actual editing and code intelligence interface really needs to be local. So practically speaking the whole dev environment has to be local. I’ve used rsync type solutions for both AWS and local VMs (docker for Mac), and in the end it was always better to just get the thing running natively.

It's not duplicated and in most cases it's not even delivered as part of the installation.

That's exactly what pip will do if invoked with `--user`.

It installs it to a single place. Run `python3 -m site` and look at `USER_BASE`.

To avoid a lot of this, use pipx[1] to keep things even more isolated.

> Often have to do chenanigans like "python3 -c 'from sometool import __app__'".

You're doing things wrong because you don't know the tooling. You'd also typically just do `python3 -m sometool`.

Things that are distributed as a single file are either so simplistic and have no other dependencies that you can just make do, or written by someone who doesn't know what they are doing and so you're going to have a bad time.

Thanks for your comment, it provides nice additional context to the discussion--but I feel like you've done more to affirm the other comments in this thread than refute them. In your own words, the Church is a gerontocracy wielding enormous wealth and therefore power, dodging taxes, and siphoning funds intended for charitable purposes. It's one thing for the Church to want to avoid going bankrupt, but how can you justify an ostensibly charitable, non-profit organization amassing funds in excess of $100B?

From the description, this appears wormable (especially in crowds and possibly in vehicles). And unlike other wormable vulnerabilities that go through a service (like Google or even the phone company), this is just two phones with no intermediary to protect devices.

Except for the part about everyone colluding to get good risk ratings. If that collusion did happen, then yes, these would be the equivalent to MBS'. That can happen regardless of what is being securitized.

It still wouldn't get to the level of the housing crisis until those securities were packaged into much larger CDOs and refinanced based on the fraudulent risk ratings.
Note: the article is from 2015.

“Like other psychological
models, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), “The Work” technique assumes that feelings (such as sadness, anger,
and pain) emerge from an attachment to a stressful thought, which leads to behavior. This means that thought precedes feelings and behavior and should be focused on as the primal cause of stress and suffering. However, unlike cognitive restruc-
turing that encourages an individual to use deliberative thinking
to answer questions, “The Work” uses it only for asking questions and “relies on one's witnessing awareness to listen for a response to arise naturally from within.””

The “questions: (1) Is it true? (2) Can I absolutely know that it is true? (3) How do I react when I believe that thought? (4) Who would
I be without the thought?“”

> The greatest trick VCs ever pulled was convincing founders, “you’re just like us.”

I don't follow how that's a trick VC's played. Founders really are investing in companies. In one of the most extreme cases, see Adam Neumann going around talking crazy for years making all kinds of big bets that all blew up spectacularly, and after this all erupted as a scandal that tanked the company he was given a cool 1.7 billion dollars to walk away.

If there's any trick being pulled, it's that each founder gets several times more equity than the size of the entire option pool (i.e. than all the employees they will ever hire put together), and are able to do things like take millions of dollars in cash off the table when they raise new rounds of funding.

In successful companies the founders really are much more on the financial than production side.

> * Most importantly, the 'find' command uses a different algorithm than shell globbing does when matching wildcard characters. More specifically, the find command will apply the search pattern against the base of the file name with all leading directories removed. This is contrasted from shell globbing which will expand the wildcard between each path component separately. When no path components are specified, the wildcard will match only files in the current directory.*

So there does seem to be a `find` specific issue here

The unix haters guide lists the shell handling the wildcard like it does as a major flaw with unix shells.
