I'm off two minds. On the one side, there is far too much reliance on black box libraries to do trivial things.

On the other, this complaint is decades old. Back in the late 80s there was a software developer for the apple iigs called FTA, which stood for Free Tools Association. They claimed that the tools in the os were too slow and you should code to the raw hardware.

How do you handle the existential crisis of our works being digital and transient versus having an actual, physical product?

Honestly, I've already gone through this when I realized that a lot of the software I wrote in the 90s is gone forever. Luckily, textfiles archived some of it (both binaries and source), but I really wish I open sourced more of my personal projects back in the day.

That said, I think video games have a longer shelf life than any other software... people will always want to play old games. As long as that's the case, at least my name will continue on in the ScummVM source.

There's also apropos which does the same thing but for some reason is easier for me to remember.

Doesn't support OpenAPI.. sigh.

The issue with JWTs is that there is no way to revoke them.

Except you can have a nonce in the JWT that corresponds to a field on the server.. which is revokable.

So it's not really a problem with for loops, it's a problem with closures inside for loops.

He shouldn't be. Elon doesn't give massive payouts. If he really wanted that domain, he'd trademark it and sue the owner for it.

Same. Our whole team switched to gitlab. The whole point of git is that it's distributed. We could host it ourselves over ssh if gitlab became a problem.

Oh wow, you sure are right.. I never tried that before.

Running ./test.sh which calls a.out which just outputs argv

0: '/Users/mrkite/a.out'
1: './test.sh'

edit: and I double checked, it doesn't modify stdin at all either.

How big are you expecting these files to be? Instead of a temporary file just read the whole thing into RAM. If someone has a 2 gig script they should expect it to take a while.

We definitely need more computers that are red.
