It’s easy not to talk or not to read content from other people. Why is age relevant here? It does as much as sense to me as to have an option to block other genders, religions or even skin colors.

I don’t feel uncomfortable talking to kids. Why should I start to be?

Kids and juveniles can learn a lot from adults. Conversations with adults make them smart.

I don’t believe this is the right way.

Also to train Microsoft to be more annoying.

Of course, it’s better to use some frameworks for logging, especially because these verbose statements are often needed for assertions while unit testing the code. But it’s still equivalent to printf.

I use debugger sometimes. I actually like to load core dumps to take a look at the stack trace. But I usually don’t really need debugger interactively because when some error appears, I usually already have an idea what happened. And lots of embedded code needs timing in milliseconds, so debuggers won’t help.

Because if you invested a lot of time on carefully choosing the places where printf should be to get all the info you need, you just need to unset NDEBUG and voilà everything that you need is there again.

I am not a guy who blindly trusts technology. Why go forward when you cannot see what’s in front of you? How can that happen?

AFAIK Google makes a disclaimer about it. A bridge can also be destroyed on the same day, so…

Well,…

1. The swam over to us (that’s why “sea”)
2. They make squeeky sounds (that’s why “pig”)

I like Shelly hardware. The devices default to local communication and cloud is optional. Custom firmware can also be used, but not really needed. I wished they made more kinds of IoT stuff.

Since the device state can be queried with HTTP requests, it’s easy to integrate it to my monitoring system (Prometheus/Grafana).

Of course, but I can see and understand what is patched and can see if I’m affected or not. In the previous version I haven’t been affected for 500 days.

You mean when you update the kernel? No one updates init on BSDs. This is mostly a entire world upgrade. But I’d never reboot from cron. My servers run 100 days without a reboot on average. In most cases there is no reason to update world, only the packages.

Reboot? Since when does Linux need a reboot? I’ve been thinking about migrating from FreeBSD to Linux, but now I am confused.

I use LaTeX. I needed to learn a lot about it to use it, but it’s the only thing that can set letters, paragraphs and book structure properly.

93000 mails since 2008 are just 2,1 GB. I have an archive on my home server where I also host my main IMAP server. I just move them from the inbox to Archives.YEAR.

I’m pretty sure that would be against EU laws to revoke a valid purchase. Let’s see how this turns out.

You can install Steam on Linux. In fact I have 2 PCs in my house for my sons. They run Windows games flawlessly. See for compatibility in the ProtonDB.
