til the most used web engine is not Webkit or Gecko -- it's Blink. Funny that I have been hearing about the others for years. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparis

@veer66 as in, use magit to delete files off the disk? Yeah; I think magit "k" removes them from tracking, magit "K" actually deletes the files.

What's more introverted -- social media instead of in-person social, in-person but no social media, or neither (if possible?)?

I love this quote. Can't seem to find the original author to give attribution where due:

Vim is immortal in the nokia brick-phone sense. It's got very few dependencies, it'll survive a drop from a ten foot pole and it's cooperative with like thirty year old technology. It's fast and ergonomic and once armageddon comes you'll shell into the flaming wreckage of a datacenter and edit configs with it. Pure embodiment of the strength and certainty of steel.

Emacs, by contrast, is immortal in the shambling fleshbeast sense. Its thousand thralls write beautiful evocations to pull domains you never could have wanted or imagined from its flesh. It grows cancerously to envelop any domain, any need you may want from it. You can tear out its heart and swap it, still-beating, for a new one. It embodies the ultimate desire to survive. It can send email

can be self-hosted. This gets around things like user limits, which are a current blocker. But should we? Pro, cons, alternatives? Dear Internet, please advise

@Crell I did look at yours, but Stack Overflow errors have taught me the hard way that PHP has changed a lot recently. Isn't much of PHP different since you wrote the book?

I'm looking for recent books or up-to-date text on with PHP. is changing rapidly and all the books I see are nearly a decade old. Any good recommendations?

@jdst258 @fsf Skype does real-time voice-to-text (I found out by accident). Anyone else?

I had a bash file that was suddenly failing. After TOO LONG debugging, I found that one of the included functions had been broken so it ended with `fi}` instead of `fi\n}` so a linebreak had been removed. As a result the cron job that depended on that script was failing.

ah, that's the stuff. Because Gnu `date` can create Julian dates but then cannot read them.

@FinchHaven yeah, this instance has custom code and so deviated from the main branch, apparently a while ago

@borkdude you mean the `java.text.SimpleDateFormat` ? I searched all over the internet and that is the only thing I could find to get the function right

Do any #clojure folks out there know of a short language-specific course covering the basic OWASP guidelines?

@borkdude Well, it isn't one line, but it is basically one function. It took some research into how and what libraries to use, but here it is: gitlab.com/toryanderson/bb-jul

@borkdude sounds like it might turn out to be a one-liner then!

I can, for the moment, rest in peace (at least, on the issue of getting my portable docked triple-monitor setup stable with ). orys.us/ww
