Is there a shortcut to reuse the result of the last command? “which java => ll $(!!)”, but the “!!” reexecutes the last command, I’d like something which doesn’t.
mawk is the worst, which, given the article's claim about POSIX, is ironic, because mawk is POSIX-compliant.

And mawk is (was in 16.04 at least) the default version of awk on Ubuntu. How is the user supposed to know this magic incantation? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
To be fair, I can see this coming out of a strict reading of POSIX: it doesn’t say a single word about GNU-style long options (though there is an implied hole where they can fit), but explicitly leaves -W with an argument as a place for implementation-defined crufties when passed to Awk (I haven’t the slightest idea why).
(Honestly I’d rather not have the convention of programs themselves handling this at all and instead have this be `ident awk` or similar, but I understand this is not going to happen.)
To be fair, when deciding how to implement CLI options, it's probably advisable to run as far away as you can from drawing any sort of inspiration from openssl. Even git looks like a paragon of UX compared to the openssl CLI.
I've actually done exactly that many years ago for a self-hosted Jira installation that didn't have any backups. You can bet we had backups with regular testing after that.
Honestly it doesn't sound too difficult and like a challenge to script something fun. To me. If you ever find yourself in that situation, email is in my profile and we'll work something out :)
In my limited experience these diffs can be missing information. I recently had to reconstruct an issue description using these email diffs after two people where editing the description at the same time and it was not 100% accurate, several lines were missing. Going to the 'history' tab on the issue I was able to get the missing lines however, if all you have are emails though you might be out of luck.
When is the Party congress? Can it happen that, after the congress, they let the Covid run rampant, to get rid of the elderly and have better figures for a few years after that?
Let’s take time to discuss this, as it’s easier to discuss when it happens to another country with an entirely different social system.
I was surprised, last year, that techniques we were condescending about, and saying it only happens in China, were applied in Europe and USA. As if it was an emergent property of a human group facing a new disease.
Talks about how magic money doesn’t exist but then printing out checks for everyone and it materially helping loads of people was definitely an Overton window shifter as well.
There are principles and a status quo, and it always stays the same… until it changes.
There was no magic money tree. It took a while for the effects to spread to the whole of the economy - perhaps because people were in lockdown and limited in their ability to spend money - but throughout the western world people's incomes have been dropping in real inflation-adjusted terms. There's no way that they couldn't; a large chunk of the economy was shut down and producing nothing, so there's just plain less stuff to buy which means people can't possibly be able to continue consuming the same amount. Printing and handing out checks just redistributed where in society the economic pain was felt for a while.
$2000 one time checks are not what is causing inflation. Extended unemployment insurance... I doubt it.
Inflation right now is happening because logistics are messed up. Yeah, turns out that when things get messy then the price of things go up, cuz it's harder to get things done.
It had more to do with the hundreds of billions of loans to rich people to keep companies open. That don't have to be repaid. And went predominantly to fraud.
I really hope the DoJ sets up a task force and starts sending people to jail. We can let out some people who smoked dope if we need more cells.
Ah yes. I suppose you still believe in Powell's story that inflation is transitory. Forget about the money supply or the sudden course correction to hike interest rates faster.
It's because our own political apparatus is not that different from the Chinese one.
We just like to pretend we still have a choice with our "democratic vote".
You won't be able to dismantle it or even to reduce the huge amount of money it consumes.
You won't be able to escape its rules. We should be thankful we're still able to leave for the least worse country.
The real disease is called statalism and we're seeing the symptoms of that.
In WW2 we had Lord Haw-Haw (the defector William Joyce). He is mocked
in Steven Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan" as the deranged voice
yelling from the ruins
I can't prove I'm not Chinese propaganda but I'm torn between China having bought our politicians or just our politicians doing their thing, trying to gradually accumulate more power and money over 200 years. Probably both, considering China got wealthy relatively recently.
> it’s easier to discuss when it happens to another country with an

I'd say it's actually harder, because one cannot compare like for
like. But of course that shouldn't discourage one from careful
analysis.
> I was surprised, last year, that techniques we were condescending

I think those making condescending remarks about China were not
realists, and perhaps a little racist. Of course similar authoritarian
responses were applied around the globe, some less heavily handed than
others, and some with better results than others. And in some places
there was a liberal response that put choice and civic responsibility
into the hands of citizens, again some with tragic outcomes, and some
with joyful results. Quite a mixed bag.
> As if it was an emergent property of a human group facing a new
disease.
It certainly is. I think the results surrounding disgust and disease
that Jordan Peterson and his group of researchers talk about , as well
as the theories of Adorno etc on the "authoritarian mind" should now
be checked against data we have from the pandemic. There will surely
be xome confirmations and surpises.
I definitely had some uncanny valley vibes watching it, but I think it might be a combination of the camera's perspective (distorting distances away from center) and the footage being sped up/slowed down.
More like footage being stabilized in software like Reelsteady / Gyroflow . Typically fpv videos are a little more "jerky" and these software remove the lens distortion and then stabilize the footage.
