I'd like rsync to create the source dir structure on the remote, when I'm only synching a file in a sub-dir. At the moment it seems I need to do this in 2 commands, e.g.. ssh <remote> mkdir -p /backup/var/spool/cron/crontabs rsync -vauz /var/spool/cron/crontabs <remote>:/backup/home/var/spool/cron/. Ideally, I'd like to be able to do this: rsync -Mvauz /var/spool/cron/crontabs <remote>:/backup/home/var/spool/cron/.

The discussion here can get very fast-paced. I am trying to periodically pause it to allow new folks, or people who don't have quite as much time, to catch up. Please feel free to comment requesting such a pause if you would like to contribute but are having trouble following it all.
Why is it necessary to pause Can't new person post their question/comment even if it's in reply to comment #10 and the latest comment happens to be comment #56? There's no rule against replying/discussing something that is not the very latest thing to be posted in a discussion!
Possibly due to lack of a threaded discussion feature in GitHub? I think so.
Threads would allow replies to "quick person" A to go under their comment, without flooding the top level with comments... thus alowing "new person" B to post a new comment, which in so doing creates a new thread, which can have its own discussion.

can be easily invoked directly from shell prompt or script
Can't expect / unbuffer / etc. (whatever this is attempting to contrast itself with) be easily invoked directly from shell prompt or script too??
Okay, I guess you have to know more about how
expect
is invoked to understand what they mean. One glance at the examples, comparing them, and all becomes clear:#!/bin/sh empty -f -i in -o out telnet foo.bar.com empty -w -i out -o in "ogin:" "luser\n"
I didn't realize that expect required/expected (no pun intended) to be used in scripts with its own shebang line:
#!/usr/bin/expect spawn telnet foo.bar.com expect ogin {send luser\r}
That does make it less easy/normal to use expect within a shell script.
I was coming to the expect project from/for the
unbuffer
command, which by contrast, is quite easy to include/use in a shell script -- almost the same asempty
, in fact. (Seems like almost a mismatch to haveunbuffer
command inexpect
toolkit then. Or isexpect
command the only odd one out in that toolkit?)

Tangentially is defined as briefly mentioning a subject but not going into it in detail, or is defined as going off in a different direction.
in the case of
briefly mentioning a subject but not going into it in detail the topic/subject need not be related at all (it sounds like).
What about in the case fo:
is defined as going off in a different direction. Does the fact that it's going off in a different direction imply that it at least starts out connected/related to the original (starting point) subject (as it does in the geometry sense of tangential)? Or does it permit "jumping" to another topic (in another direction) without being related/connected at all??
I don't think I like this definition very much. It doesn't quite fit the sense I'm trying to use it for in my tag:
tangentially related content (aside)

Nevertheless, co-hyponyms are not necessarily incompatible in all senses. A queen and mother are both hyponyms of woman but there is nothing preventing the queen from being a mother.
not necessarily incompatible in all senses.
so is this only a concern/possibility when the word in question is a polyseme?
but there is nothing preventing the queen from being a mother
The meaning of the "incompatibility" relation seems really ambiguous. What does that mean precisely?
And how would we know for sure if an incompatibility (such as a peach is not a plum) or lack of incompatibility (a queen can be a mother and a mother can be a queen) is a sufficient condition to cause it to be or not be a co-hyponym?
Oh. I guess it says
Co-hyponyms are often but not always related to one another by the relation of incompatibility.
so it actually can't ever be used to prove or disprove (sufficient/necessary condition) that something is a co-hyponym. So that observation, while interesting, is not helpful in a practical / deterministic way...
-
It consists of two relations; the first one being exemplified in "An X is a Y" (simple hyponymy) while the second relation is "An X is a kind/type of Y". The second relation is said to be more discriminating and can be classified more specifically under the concept of taxonomy.
So I think what this saying, rather indirectly (from the other direction), if I'm understanding correctly, is that the relationships that can be inferred from looking at a taxonomy are ambiguous, because a taxonomy includes 2 kinds of relationships, but encodes them in the same way (conflates them together as if they were both hyponyms--er, well, this is saying that the are both kinds of hyponyms):
- "An X is a Y" (simple hyponymy)
- "An X is a kind/type of Y".
Actually, I may have read it wrong / misunderstood it... While it's not ruling out that simple hyponymy may sometimes be used in a taxonomy, it is be saying that the "second relation" is "more specifically under the concept of taxonomy" ... which is not really clear, but seems to mean that it is more appropriate / better for use as a criterion in a taxonomy.
Okay, so define "simple hyponymy" and name the other kind of hyponymy that is referenced here.

semantic domain or semantic field
What, then, is the difference between a semantic domain and a semantic field? The way they are used here, it's almost as if they are listing them in order to emphasis that they are synonyms ... but I'm not sure.
From the later examples of basketball (https://hyp.is/ynKbXI1BEeuEheME3sLYrQ/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_domain) and coffee shop, however, I am pretty certain that semantic domain is quite different from (broader than) semantic field.

(Not answered on this stub article)
What, precisely, is the distinction/difference between a semantic class and a semantic field? At the very least, you would say that they are themselves both very much within the same semantic field.
So, is a semantic class distinct from a semantic field in that semantic class is a more well-defined/clear-cut semantic field? And a semantic field is a more fluid, nebulous, not well-defined field (in the same sense as a magnetic field, which has no distinct boundary whatsoever, only a decay as you move further away from its source) ("semantic fields are constantly flowing into each other")?
If so, could you even say that a semantic class is a kind of (hyponym) of semantic field?
Maybe I should pose this question on a semantics forum.

those aspects of a linguistic unit, such as a morpheme, word, or sentence,
Speaking of ambiguity...
Are the examples in the list "such as a morpheme, word, or sentence" examples of
- aspects of a linguistic unit or of:
- linguistic units themselves ?
Unless you are already fairly familiar with those terms -- in particular, linguistic unit -- it may not be clear.
I believe these are given as examples of "linguistic unit", in order to clarify what we mean by "linguistic unit" — perhaps (ironically) precisely because many people would be unfamiliar with that expression/term.

This semi-colon is added to prevent changing the code behaviour (the famous line ending with parentheses, etc) Most people will use a JS minifier If they don't, a single extra character is unlikely to change much If I'm right about all the above: Why don't we simply always add a semi-colon regardless of what the file ends with?

What is the point of avoiding the semicolon in concat_javascript_sources
For how detailed and insightful his analysis was -- which didn't elaborate or even touch on his not understanding the reason for adding the semicolon -- it sure appeared like he knew what it was for. Otherwise, the whole issue would/should have been about how he didn't understand that, not on how to keep adding the semicolon but do so in a faster way!
Then again, this comment from 3 months afterwards, indicates he may not think they are even necessary: https://github.com/rails/sprockets/issues/388#issuecomment-252417741
Anyway, just in case he really didn't know, the comment shortly below partly answers the question:
Since the common problem with concatenating JavaScript files is the lack of semicolons, automatically adding one (that, like Sam said, will then be removed by the minifier if it's unnecessary) seems on the surface to be a perfectly fine speed optimization.
This also alludes to the problem: https://github.com/rails/sprockets/issues/388#issuecomment-257312994
But the explicit answer/explanation to this question still remains unspoken: because if you don't add them between concatenated files -- as I discovered just to day -- you will run into this error:
(intermediate value)(...) is not a function at something.source.js:1
, apparently because when it concatenated those 2 files together, it tried to evaluate it as:
({ // other.js })() (function() { // something.js })();
It makes sense that a ; is needed.

What is the opposite of free content?
The opposite of free/open-source software is proprietary software or non-free software (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proprietary_software).
So should we call the opposite of free content "non-free content"? Or "proprietary content"?
Seems likes either would be fine.
Looks like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content prefers the term "non-free content".
Couldn't find anyone contrasting these 2 terms (like I could no doubt find for software):

- https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%22proprietary+content%22+%22free+content%22&ia=web

Could you please explain why it is a vulnerability for an attacker to know the user names on a system? Currently External Identity Providers are wildly popular, meaning that user names are personal emails.My amazon account is my email address, my Azure account is my email address and both sites manage highly valuable information that could take a whole company out of business... and yet, they show no concern on hiding user names...
Good question: Why do the big players like Azure not seem to worry? Microsoft, Amazon, Google, etc. too probably. In fact, any email provider. So once someone knows your email address, you are (more) vulnerable to someone trying to hack your account. Makes me wonder if the severity of this problem is overrated.
Irony: He (using his full real name) posts:
- Information about which account ("my Azure account is my email address"), and
- How high-value of a target he would be ("both sites manage highly valuable information that could take a whole company out of business...")
thus making himself more of a target. (I hope he does not get targetted though.)

const expensiveOperation = async (value) => { // return Promise.resolve(value) // console.log('value:', value) await sleep(1000) console.log('expensiveOperation: value:', value, 'finished') return value } var expensiveOperationDebounce = debounce(expensiveOperation, 100); // for (let num of [1, 2]) { // expensiveOperationDebounce(num).then(value => { // console.log(value) // }) // } (async () => { await sleep(0 ); console.log(await expensiveOperationDebounce(1)) })(); (async () => { await sleep(200 ); console.log(await expensiveOperationDebounce(2)) })(); (async () => { await sleep(1300); console.log(await expensiveOperationDebounce(3)) })(); // setTimeout(async () => { // console.log(await expensiveOperationDebounce(3)) // }, 1300)
Outputs: 1, 2, 3
Why, if I change it to:
(async () => { await sleep(0 ); console.log(await expensiveOperationDebounce(1)) })(); (async () => { await sleep(200 ); console.log(await expensiveOperationDebounce(2)) })(); (async () => { await sleep(1100); console.log(await expensiveOperationDebounce(3)) })();
Does it only output 2, 3?

Actually just returning the loginDaoCall works fine. I dont really get what's different as it is the looked like it was the same instance, but probably not.
So the posted answer wasn't necessary/correct? Which part of the answer was incorrect/unneeded?
I wish this OP comment included the full version of code that worked.
I don't understand this OP comment. Wasn't OP already returning
loginDaoCall
? So maybe the only thing they could mean is that they just needed to change it toreturn loginDaoCall.then(...)
instead...That would be consistent with what the answer said:
the promise returned by the further .then() does also get rejected and was not handled.
So I guess the unnecessary part of the answer was adding the
return true
/false...

This isn’t an accident. OpenOffice’s sidebar code was copied and incorporated into LibreOffice. The Apache OpenOffice project uses the Apache License, while the LibreOffice uses a dual LGPLv3 / MPL license. The practical result is LibreOffice can take OpenOffice’s code and incorporate it into LibreOffice — the licenses are compatible. On the other hand, LibreOffice has some features — like font embedding — that don’t appear in OpenOffice. This is because the two different licenses only allow a one-way transfer of code. LibreOffice can incorporate OpenOffice’s code, but OpenOffice can’t incorporate LibreOffice’s code. This is the result of the different licenses the projects chose.
What part of LGPLv3 / MPL prevents LibreOffice code from being incorporated back into OpenOffice's Apache Licensed code??

Is that because "relative complement" would be better? Or because the full phrase "theoretic difference" [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/set-theoretic_difference] is required in order for it to be accurate rather than just "difference"?

Related concepts in other fields are: In natural language, the coordinating conjunction "and". In programming languages, the short-circuit and control structure. In set theory, intersection. In predicate logic, universal quantification.
Strictly speaking, are these examples of dualities (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duality_(mathematics))? Or can I only, at strongest, say they are analogous (a looser coonection)?

ssh-add <(echo "$PRIVATE_KEY")
Does this have any advantage over simply saving that key to a key file under ~/.ssh?
Like they do on https://stackoverflow.com/a/61944004/47185:
mv "$DEPLOY_KEY_PRIVATE" ~/.ssh/id_rsa

1. Disabling concrete extension update. That's what I wanted! You can do this by editing the extensions manifest json-file on Windows: C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\<EXTENSION-ID>\<VERSION>\manifest.json (find out the extensions ID by enabling developer mode in the extension settings page) on Ubuntu for Chromium: ${HOME}/.config/chromium/Default/Preferences In this file set "update_url" property to something invalid like "https://localhost" for example. For now according to given url updating of that extension is simply impossible.

If you update your pages and push to github, people revisiting the pages who have already got cached copies will not get the new pages without actually cleaning their browser cache. How can a script running in a page determine that it is stale and force an update?

The consent provided by the user is saved in some cookies within the host page’s domain. By verifying the presence or the absence of these cookies you can determine whether the user has given their consent or not.
But how do you check if they've given consent to a specific category??

Make it clear that signing up is optional. Consent must be “freely given”; you may not coerce users into joining your mailing list or make it appear as if joining the list is mandatory. For this reason, you must make it clear that signing up is optional. This is especially relevant in cases where you offer free white-papers (or e-books) for download. While the user’s email address is required for the delivery of the service, signing up for your newsletter is not. In such a case, you must not make it appear as if signing-up to the newsletter list mandatory and must make it clear that it is optional.
Question (answer below)
Are they saying that it's not allowed to make signing up for a mailing list a precondition/requirement for anything? This was surprising to me.
So if you have a newsletter sign-up page that sends a digital bonus gift (like an e-book) to new subscribers, are required to completely change/repurpose your "newsletter sign-up page" into a "download e-book page" (that has an optional checkbox to also sign up for the newsletter, if you want)? That seems dumb to me, since it requires completely reversing the purpose of the page — which was, in my mind, primarily about signing up for the newsletter, with a bonus (an essentially optional one) thrown in for those who do so. Are you required to either repurpose it like that or remove the free bonus offer that would be sent to new subscribers?
The irony of this is that it requires websites that have a newsletter sign-up page like that to change it into a "newsletter sign-up page" where the newsletter sign-up part is optional. Which make you look kind of stupid, making a page that claims to be one thing but doesn't necessarily do what it says it's for.
Does this mean, in effect, that you may not lawfully provide any sort of incentive or reward for signing up for something (like a mailing list)? As long as it's very clear that some action is required before delivery of some thing, I don't see why this sort of thing should not be permitted? Would this fall under contract law? And as such, wouldn't such a contract be allowed and valid? Are mailing lists a special class of [service] that has special requirements like this? Or is it part of a broader category to which this requirement applies more generally?
Why is requiring the user to provide an email address before they can download a digital reward allowed but not requiring signing up to a mailing list? Why isn't it required that even the email address be optional to provide? (To answer my own question, probably because it's allowed to allow a user to request a specific thing to be sent via email, and an email address is required in order to fulfill that request. But...) It seems that the website could just provide a direct link to download it via HTTP/FTP/etc. as an option for users that chose not to provide an email address. (But should they be required to provide that option anytime they / just because they provide the option to have the same thing delivered via email?)
Answer
Looks like my question was answered below:
Explicit Form (where the purpose of the sign-up mechanism is unequivocal). So for example, in a scenario where your site has a pop-up window that invites users to sign up to your newsletter using a clear phrase such as: “Subscribe to our newsletter for access to discount vouchers and product updates!“, the affirmative action that the user performs by typing in their email address would be considered valid consent.
So the case I described, where it is made very clear that the incentive that is offered is conditional on subscribing, is listed as an exception to the general rule. That's good; it should be allowed.

Chrome first sends an encrypted, 3-byte hash of your username to Google, where it is compared to Google's list of compromised usernames. If there's a match, your local computer is sent a database of every potentially matching username and password in the bad credentials list
Why do they only send password matches if username also matches?? A password should be deemed compromised and never used again if the password is found in a breach/paste anywhere, even if in connection with a different username/email.
