Nothing is being "reclassified." Look at John Deere tractors - thanks to the licensing of the software running on those tractors, combined with the DMCA, people do not have the right to repair them. Yes, they bought the tractor, but they will be breaking the law if they fix the tractor themselves.

Being able to work on a machine you own sounds much more like a "right" than an "opportunity" to me.

Depends on the jeans, really. I'm pretty sure it's fairly common for people with jeans made from selvedge denim to go months without washing them so they don't fade as much/have a nicer fade pattern.

>Social Security numbers, dates of birth and other sensitive data

Dates of birth are considered sensitive data? That's pretty sad

Did you ever point out that they legally had just as much right to be on the road as she did?

> If it's not safe to go into the next lane to pass a cyclist, it's not safe to pass the cyclist at all.

Cyclists may ride in the center of the lane when they want to force this.

Assuming people actually follow that rule, that is.

From my (limited) experience as a cyclist, I think most motorists think they have more of a right to be on the road than bicycles do. This is false from a legal standpoint, but knowing the motorist was technically at fault probably won't make the cyclist feel any better when he's sitting in the hospital after getting hit by a car.

zsh still uses sourceforge, if that's worth anything

Wow. "Able to edit files and save changes to the disk" is the absolute minimum for something to count as a text editor...and that's not even reliable?

Pretty much what I said, but in different words.

In short, "Doesn't realize that subreddit moderators can basically do whatever they want with their subreddit"

> Reddit banned me from the AMA section

The wording implies it was a Reddit admin, but I'm willing to bet it was actually one of /r/IAmA's moderators

> I immediately edited the post (without being asked, and which the moderators themselves had not seen fit to modify despite their concerns)

Subreddit moderators cannot modify other users' posts. Reddit admins can, but (as far as I know) that's only happened once, and there was a pretty big shitstorm over it

The POSIX definition of a "line" is "A sequence of zero or more non- <newline> characters plus a terminating <newline> character"[0]. I don't think it's counterintuitive at all for POSIX utilities to respect that definition.

My keyboard (Ducky Shine 3) actually has a dip switch on the back that swaps capslock and control. Not sure if any other companies do that though

>laptops have ruined that old useful six-key block

For what it's worth, my Thinkpad definitely isn't ruined--it has a five key block containing the other keys you mentioned. Insert is over to the right in a four-key row (along with PrtSc, ScrLk, and Pause) that's above F9-F12

Press and hold?

"Rust and Go are both systems programming languages, so we have to compare them! Go wins because it's easier. By the way, Go isn't a systems programming language and would suck for systems programming."

That's basically what I got from this article.

Doesn't look very dead to me.

And you know who terrorists recruit? Children.

You do care about the children, don't you?

Oh, that's an easy one. They want to get some of Snapchat's market share.

"Update of 02-09-2017"

That's a pretty bad title. First, update pertaining to what? Second, what date format is that?

I think a revised title mentioning "BTC-e" and "September 2, 2017" would be an improvement.

Yes, "right node raising" is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

Since you apparently know stuff about language, maybe you can help me out:

Sometimes novice programmers try something like "foo == bar && baz" when they really should have "foo == bar && foo == baz". This is because, in English, "Foo is equal to bar and baz" means (and is more common than) "Foo is equal to bar and foo is equal to baz". There's some name for this rule, but I haven't been able to remember it for a while. I think it's "right hand ______", but I can't remember that final word.

You have a lot more choice in domain registrars than most people do when it comes to choosing an ISP.

"all vehicles are becoming more difficult to repair as computers and software replace what used to be handled by mechanical systems."

Don't forget John Deere tractors!

You've been downvoted a little; My guess is that people are reading your post as "Kids don't deserve privacy"

But that's not what you actually said, and I'm not so sure that it's what you actually meant. Could you elaborate a bit?

> If you want to fling patent claims at a company that developed and released a great piece of code, removing the code from your business seems like a reasonable price to pay.

If that code were free software? No, that doesn't sound anywhere near reasonable.

What about cubicles?

> The problems I have while coding in Rust don't even exist in other languages.

Yes, Rust probably requires more thinking to program in than C. But C's hard-to-troubleshoot runtime segfaults become hard compiler errors (with line numbers and useful error messages!) in Rust. Trust me, I've had plenty of fights with the borrow checker. But, once I finally get it to compile successfully, I know that my program isn't going to fail at runtime by accessing memory in some invalid/incorrect way.

As someone who's seen the Rocky Horror Picture Show in a movie theater many times (with audience participation, of course), that sounds like a lot of fun

I was worried that page would actually return a 200 OK response, but curl confirmed it actually returns a 418 code

Still doesn't work.

  touch 'file with spaces'
  for file in $(ls -Q); do echo "$file"; done

This prints:

  "file

  spaces"

Couldn't you use a separate certificate for super-secret-subdomain.example.com?
