I find it ironic that Linus’s explanation for ENOENT
being invalid for an ioctl given its meaning of “No such file or directory”, while simultaneously ioctl can return ENOTTY
when using a mismatched device fd despite the error meaning “Not a typewriter.”
The fact that most universities will graduate CS majors without ever teaching them how to use a debugger, build system, or version control system shows how useful they are to actual engineering work.
Right? Most of the time when I build linux I’m not using GNU because of its burdensome license. Realistically you usually don’t need most of the binaries anyway, and those you do like echo
and ls
are trivial to reimplement, at least for their common functionality.
Honestly by the time I decide to retire an old machine, it’s because I’ve developed so much animosity towards it that I’m much more likely to have an attitude of “good riddance” than “farewell old friend”.
Sorry, but that’s not how the law works - it doesn’t matter how morally justified a crime might be.
This is brilliant. Definitely going to try this tomorrow.
”On a scale of 1 to 10, how often do you think about killing yourself?”
“Uhhh… 3?”
”That’ll be $40”
It’s a simple, nearly instantaneous test that goes by the name of the LAL, or Limulus amebocyte lysate, test (after the species name of the crab, Limulus polyphemus). The LAL test replaced the rather horrifying prospect of possibly contaminated substances being tested on “large colonies of rabbits.” Pharma companies didn’t like the rabbit process, either, because it was slow and expensive.

A good pair of pliers, like the Knipex Cobra.
Textures have been the biggest size contributor by far for a while.
It seems silly to be distrustful of proprietary BIOS firmware without having the same skepticism of the actual hardware.
Accurate except for the “instead” part. Road maintenance comes from local taxes, whereas military aid comes from federal taxes.
No one makes christmas lists that are short like Gaston!
Even if they do, the Palestinian diaspora has almost no presence in “swing states” in the US.

Wow, I had no clue. TIL
All the claims except 8 are “obvious” IMO. Claim 8 fails novelty because of the huge amount of prior art on the matter.
Note that I’m using “novelty” and “obvious” according to their english definitions, and the intent of patent protection. If they’re different in practice, that’s a failing of current patent law.
For reference, here’s what I would consider to be a “good” software patent: https://patents.justia.com/patent/6721362
Not really a problem with UDP itself, but with some very old protocols like DNS that rely on UDP but can’t be changed because of compatibility. If you’re writing a new service that uses UDP, there’s nothing stopping you from designing it so that it doesn’t provide an opportunity for bandwidth amplification.
