> Bunch of javascript spaghetti code with ++i + i++ like idiotic questions and some basic SQL. Do you really guys think that calculating inside your head some shamanic expressions will evaluate objectively the engineering experience?

I feel kind of ashamed as an Indian, seeing this. These sorts of dumb and idiotic questions are all too common in India. People like to ask these sorts of silly question (that lack any depth) even in the education system in India (e.g. in CBSE and various state syllabi).

They obviously filter for a certain type -- a person who is good at answering arcane, meaningless useless edge case questions. Where you have idea what that person's actual engineering and architecture skills are like.

The sad part of this story is that the entire Indian education system is designed to train people to attain such kinds of meaningless superficial skills. For example, most engineering entrance exams in India expect you to be really good at computing complicated integrals -- something that you can just ask a computer do. It fails to recognize and utilize the great depth and breadth of human intellect, and instead rewards people for simulating a CPU well.

Licensing is already a big mess.

And it is not about revenge. It is about enforcing the spirit of those open source licenses. WordPress uses GPL to force users to contribute to open source.

Do you think the RIAA contributes? Instead they actively attack it.

Do you think the RIAA can evolve for the better? It has an explicit mandate to restrict copyrights. Its existence opposes the software they use.

True, sadly it is unfeasible. It is a nice fantasy.

Would you say that someone from a different religion could still value and appreciate their family? Or this only the case for those who believe in Jesus?
Why not SFTP?
I don't understand this reaction and the reaction of many people in this thread. To me it looks like choosing beggars, maybe I'm missing something.

Travis-CI was giving a ton of computing power for free, no questions asked. That was incredibly generous but had certainly a gigantic cost and it powered many OSS projects for a long time.

Yet how can we complain that they can throw money around, some says that it will reduce the number of new users that discover the service and the number of paying client in the long run (many are saying this but are not paying users anyway) but it's not like the number of potential clients is unlimited anyway and at what point it becomes to costly to get the last ones.

Why would this be a "private equity" thing, you can't always loose (or invest to get more users) money. Does your company sponsors the infrastructure of that many OSS projects? Would it be willing to cover the costs of all servers used by OSS projects for Travis?
I believe in dog-fooding, using your own products. That holds for programmers and UI designer, who should use the software they build, but also for architects and CTOs: they should experience the effect of their decisions, and taking part in the design and coding can help.

Apart from the fact that they're working on a decent replacement, the original scp will always be available because it's open source. You can copy the sources now, compile it, and use for as long as it works. At some pint in the upgrade cycle the binary will stop working, and at that time you can recompile the sources you have. Chances are you will be able to recompile it without a single change, and if some modifications turn out necessary, they're very likely minor.

Of course the problem with this approach is that you won't receive security updates - but if the developers already consider the tool insecure, it might not matter much, especially if you use it only between hosts you control.

With infinitely many cores that are all connected to the same bus while each core has a unique id, you actually can solve the halting problem.

It was deprecated already.

Seems simpler to just make the scp command use the SFTP protocol. Someone is already working on it.

I think in this context - a classroom experiment - it's fine. The experiment was cleanly designed, there's little room for fancy p-hacking. The differences satisfy the Interocular Trauma Test. The theory (to guide our prior) is persuasive.
I doubt this will be accepted.

It'll break a lot of valid functionality that relies on it, and the only case I can see presented as to why is for situations when servers choose to offer scp when they should have chosen to offer sftp.

Complaining that some people hand out shell access and this creates a "problem" that they gave people access to shell commands verges on ridiculous.

I'm not sure that that's true. Some of the tricky cases for the halting problem boil down to the spiritual equivalent of trying to determine whether "this sentence is false" is true or false. It's not; it's neither. No infinite number of cores can help you there.

Yes, I think the CapEx argument often advanced by the marketing of AWS and C-levels and engineers of large companies moving to the Cloud is just something said to justify the decision and help everybody get on board with it, but I think the CapEx -> OpEx one is fallacious.

There is others reasons for example the flexibility, the managed services, etc. but I don't think this one makes sense.

Travis CI could shutdown overnight, there's Circle CI and AppVeyor doing the exact same thing. They take pretty much the same configuration so there's nothing to adjust.
This is intentional. In order to make renumbering possible at all, it needs to be done regularly. If the equipment didn’t handle DHCP-PD regularly the code would rot and other devices and people would assume that address prefixes would never change. That, in turn, would cause lots of things to break when prefixes were forced to change (new ISP, merger, change in upstream architecture, etc).
Finish shares root of around 200 words with Hungarian, it's just the languages diverged and got influenced by their respective regions. For starters, both languages use different letters for the same sounds. Hell, Hungarian uses written form of sz for the regular s sound, and written form of s for sh sound. The long ő, in the end of a Hungarian word, has previously been a diphtong öü or eü and even more previously ev. Finnish e/ä is written as Hungarian under one letter of e.

And here are some examples:

Hung. kéz (hand) = Finn. käsi, Hung. vér (blood) = Finn. veri, Hung. méz (honey) = Finn. mesi, Hung. szarv (horn) = Finn. sarvi, Hung. vaj (butter) = Finn. voi, Hung. eleven (alive) = Finn. elävä, Hung. menni (to go) = Finn. mennä, Hung. reped (to be torn) = Finn. repeää.

Then you have switches from h to k, as in Hung. hal (fish) = Finn. kala

Then you have switches from f to p, as in fej (head) = Finn. pää, Hung. fészek (nest) = Finn. pesä

Or, the letter n in Finnish is often replaced by ny in Hungarian, as in Finn. niellä (swallow) = Hung. nyelni, Finn. miniä (daughter-in-law) = Hung. meny

Hungarian and Finnish diverged 4500 years ago, and they represent the opposite spectrum of the Ugro-Finn language group. There are 9 languages in the same language group, and the middle parts of it have more in common with both languages than Hungarian with Finnish.
No, no, no. They just suck. It's not that the concept is bad - it is in fact very good, for the exact reason you suggest.

They are just abysmally badly implemented. They barely work at all and frequently get your repo into nonsensical states for NO REASON other than that the tooling is utterly worthless.

Mercurial has subrepos that offer conceptually the exact same functionality, but is actually implemented in a way that works WITH you rather than against you, and that will not constantly break.

Git submodules are just a completely unfinished feature that is nearly unusable.

In simpler words, as a user: The jq query language [1] is obtuse, obscure, incredibly hard to learn if you need it for quick one liners once in a blue moon. I've tried, believe me, but I should probably spend that much effort learning Chinese instead.

It's just operating at the wrong abstraction level, whereas gron is orders of magnitude easier to understand and _explore_.

I did the same. Those Javascript questions were really not great.

Also, I know enough JS and HTML, but I absolutely hate it and have no interest in answering questions about it, even if the questions were good. A server-side category is clearly missing.
They must've made the headphone jacks sturdier on the original model. Both the Zip and Plus had the same loose jack issue for me after a while.

Doesn't look too hard beyond the prising open part, which from what I gather is a bit tricky given the size and how well bound it is

Turkish and Finnish do have the same word structure and very similar sentence characteristics. Both are agglutinative languages with vowel harmony and "floating" word order. Japanese is also agglutinative but lacks vowel harmony. I'd consider scholars who believe these languages are not similar to be quite wrong.

It's true that there is practically no common vocabulary between the tree though. (Hungarian and Turkish share some small amount of words due to relatively recent Ottoman rule, but that's about it)

An Italian friend learning Turkish complained mainly about having to wait until the end of sentence (The Turkish (and Japanese) sentences are canonically Subject-Object-Verb) to understand what's going on. And imagine a native English speaker's frustration when they realize groups of words can come in any order in Latin (and Turkish, and Finnish) and it's the suffixes that make up a word's function in the sentence!

So, my point was that being exposed to a language with a different grammar is simply good mental exercise and will come in handy when learning other, seemingly separate foreign languages, regardless of the amount of people who speak it.

I don't know the specifics, but I'm fairly sure that would make the software not open source/free software as recognised by the OSI/FSF.
The main drawback for those things is that you cannot parameterize them, which is a bummer if you've created a shape that you might want to vary in ways that a transform cannot easily do.

Potentially. In practice, what I see is people complaining that they can't switch back to a podcast and continue playback from where they left off.

I can understand the problem. With something like a 3 hour "Hardcore History" podcast, I'll take a break, listen to something else, then come back.

It sees the filesystem the way Cygwin maps it, so what's transferred isn't an exact match for Windows files and attributes.

For example, Windows symlinks and Cygwin symlinks are quite different. I don't think Cygwin rsync can replicate a directory containing Windows symlinks properly, so that the replica behaves the same as seen by Windows programs.

I'm not sure about the other Windows attributes such as ACLs but I would be surprised if Cygwin rsync can replicate those.
In more than 15 years of expérience in cross border divorces I have seen that the current complaints by fathers are often linked to the tentative by judges to redress open or hidden biases penalizing mothers. The route to equality is still very long, in both ways. Every case is different and the reason why a marriage ended with a divorce do matter in assessing the child’s best interest. Statistics on violence against women are far too high for invoking in the present moment the neutralization of maternal preference. Hopefully the moment will come for the next generation

I wonder why that's the case. shell access is way more permissive compared to the sftp subsystem.

Why would and admin enable full shell access but not sftp? What does sftp allow that shell access doesn't?

Pure shell access clearly is a superset of all functionality - for example, given shell access, a poor man's scp would be

ssh user@remote "cat /path/to/target/file" < local file

and if you need to do more files at once, add `tar` to the mix.

Perhaps it is one of your names? Well, whoever you are, it's my honor. And, for the record, maybe you already have spoken with me, for all I know.

I am, sadly, absurdly slow in my letter-writing (it's downright shameful), and I don't want to disappoint any further than I probably already have. I will continue to work on that front. But, I am also happy to piece together a faster channel. I think we have an enormous amount in common.

As to this account, I have run into it a few times (this is my second time through your account), but I've been too shy to say anything. You are quite a beacon on this forum.

It is very rare for me to speak with my voice to anyone who isn't basically family or in my physical proximity (and even then, I'm often quiet). However, for an irrational reason I can't quite put my finger on, I have a good feeling about you. If you are ever up for it, I would gladly speak in voicechat with you.
