I think Odyssey is a pretty cool guy. Eh trojans hores and doesnt afraid of anything.

You don’t kill zombies; a zombie is already dead. You wait for or reap zombies. (A zombie process is just a process table entry with its exit status; it goes away once the parent process has read that exit status.)

It’s from a political cartoon depicting a corrupt districting plan as a salamander.

Yeah, spoken “lol” in place of saying “that’s funny” or, y’know, actually laughing.

Excel is a single-assignment dynamically-typed functional programming language with a really obtuse editor.

What does a network engineer bring on a hiking trip in the woods? Water, snacks, extra sunscreen, a first aid kit, bug repellent, bear spray … and a folding shovel and a piece of fiber-optic cable.

(What’s the fiber for?)

Well, if you get lost in the woods or need to be rescued, you take the shovel, dig a trench, put the fiber in it, bury it … and within an hour, someone with a backhoe will show up to tear it up. Then you can just follow the backhoe tracks back to civilization.

Odd?

Harris’s party is predominantly center-right. They believe in capitalism, private land ownership, individual rights, a limited role for government in regulating the economy, and the rest of the liberal-democratic consensus.

The leftmost faction within her party, the DSA, are social-democrats, a center-left position.

There are no revolutionary socialists among US federal elected officials. The notion that the Democratic Party is “leftist” is a fantasy of the far right.

Some homophobes don’t believe in the existence of straight people.
