They create a policy to prevent the use of Windows laptops but they are unable to create a policy to enforce purchasing the correct Operating System?

Comparing Windows and macOS to Linux is moot and we should stop doing it. Linux has always been and will continue to be an ecosystem driven by various communities, and expecting everyone to agree on the same standards is silly.

The sooner we all begin treating Ubuntu and Red Hat Enterprise Linux as separate Operating Systems the sooner we can all move on from the "single standard" and "Linux on Desktop" debates. As an application vendor I always find it amusing when customers ask if we support Linux. My response is no, we don't support Linux but we do support Ubuntu 18+ and RHEL 8. Linux distros are so wildly different these days, not just in software but in ideologies, that this distinction is important, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Samsung support is atrocious. Had a similar issue with my S9 phone where the power button suddenly got jammed and couldn't be released. They sent it back with the exact same reasoning: "Caused by physical damage". Well yeah, I physically press the button to turn the phone on and off, what do you expect. I don't understand how they are still so popular when they never help you with anything.

Out of curiosity, what config changes did you use on apache?

> They shouldn't consist of everyone telling everyone else what they're working on.

It's a common habit people fall into when transitioning to scrum. An experienced scrum master should never let this happen though.

Something separate (ie. custom code). You can use "Inspect Element" in your browser to confirm.

> No support for null strings? Check

Why would you ever want this? Gives me Java nightmares.

Do you have statistics? My perception is the opposite.

Enjoyed the user namespace section. Looking forward to the `mount` and `net` namespace sections and how they are used in docker.

Nice and simple. I tend to use a wrapper around BSD tree.h and SQLite for persistence. Longer insert/update times but quick access and you get the SQL language and tools for free.

Out of the loop when it comes to the latest processor technology. How does this chip maintain the same TDP as a 6850K but with 4 more core? Same size (lithography), roughly the same freq, memory size/types.

Works OK for small teams. If a user forgets to close the database then other team members are only able to open it as read-only. My biggest gripe is that you don't know who is holding the write lock. We work around this by using a setting in our keepass client to close the db after a certain amount of time.

Sorry, I'm not asking about current Debian. In your previous comment you mention that the symbol packages are not new. I'm wondering how people have been creating them on Debian 8.

> Knowing of projects that require it, and specifically which parts, or that are already using the static libdpkg library are very valuable, so that those parts can be improved.

What would be the best way of contributing this sort of information?

Did not know that, thank you. Do you know happen to know how it is done? When I pull the debian tarball for nginx (which has a -dbg package with symbol files) I see:

> dh_strip --dbg-package=nginx-$(*)-dbg

Which is the exact same command I use in my rules file. But instead of giving me a -dbg package with symbol files debuild gives me a -dbg package with the unstripped binary. Not sure what I am missing. I am following the DebugPackage guide on the Debian Wiki[1].

1. https://wiki.debian.org/DebugPackage

HEADLINE: Stabilize dpkg C library (libdpkg)

DESCRIPTION: Any plans to go ahead and stabilize the dpkg library for buster? Having access to a stable package management library is essential in our software. Ie. being able to verify package signatures and querying the database for files. Both of which are not supported.

DISTRIBUTION: buster

One of my favorite changes:

> If you use debhelper/9.20151219 or newer in Debian, it will generate debug symbol packages (as <package>-dbgsym) for you with no additional changes to your source package. These packages are not available from the main archive. Please fetch these from debian-debug or snapshot.debian.org.

No more shipping -dbg packages with full binaries. And less storage space is always a win.

Very funny concept. Especially liked the catapult[1].

Since the very beginning of online banking I've wanted two things: IP whitelisting and a master switch to enable/disable withdrawals. I've settled for 2FA but even top banks in Canada are still not offering it.

I work in security and have witnessed some extremely well-crafted endpoint malware that can intercept banking sessions.

After integrating protobufs in my application for messaging I decided to use a separate schema for storing the current state of the program. Ie. When state changes, the protobuf is updated and written to disk. When the program restarts, the state file is loaded into memory. I have not run into any problems doing this.

Edit: Your question is addressed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14249367

Would be nice if the "Notes" section referenced the matching table entry. Example:

>Send root password by email Yes No[1] No

>Notes:

>1. DigitalOcean sends you the passwords only if you don’t use SSH keys, in plain text.

Otherwise, great comparisons.

Can you give me an example where an array would be more beneficial than having another table with {id, name}? I personally have never found a use for them.

Try jsdom[1]? It returns a valid window object and stubs out events to allow DOM manipulation (amongst other things).

OT: Does anyone know how to get an open-source kernel module signed by RedHat and be included in the CentOS kernel? Do they have a form/contact for this sort of request?

I don't use any extensions. On idle, with only a terminal open it jumps from 3% to 26% CPU. I'm under the impression that it has to do with my hardware since I've tried various CentOS and Fedora versions and the issue persists.

> 31.2 26.1 gnome-sh+

"gnome-shell memory" returns pages of forum posts and bugzilla tickets of people sharing the same issue; and most are left unsolved. But that doesn't excuse me from contributing my specs and trying to help the community. Thanks for the suggestion.

I've tried running newer CentOS and Fedora GNOME environments but they always feel so much slower than Xfce or unity. When I open ps it shows gnome-shell constantly using 10% cpu and 20-30% memory. Opening menus and switching desktops is such a pain with all the delay. I found this true with Virtual Machines as well.

Our team uses LiquidPlanner but it requires a lot of training and workshops to start using it right. Devs within the team struggle with the initial learning curve so we integrated Bugzilla and it works really well. The biggest feature we rely on from LP is predictive estimate ranges. For teams relying on the software releases of other teams the managers of each can see different uncertainty estimates and plan accordingly.
