I don’t think either is actually true. I know many programmers who can fix a problem once the bug is identified but wouldn’t be able to find it themselves nor would they be able to determine if a bug is exploitable without significant coaching.

Exploit finding is a specific skill set that requires thinking about multiple levels of abstraction simultaneously (or intentionally methodically). I have found that most programmers simply don’t do this.

I think the definition of “good” comes into play here, because the vast majority of programmers need to dependably discover solutions to problems that other people find. Ingenuity and multilevel abstract thinking are not critically important and many of these engineers who reliably fix problems without hand holding are good engineers in my book.

I suppose that it could be argued that finding the source of a bug from a bug report requires detective skills, but even this is mostly guided inspection with modern tooling.

I’d this is autism then I have some unexpected conversations coming up.

Have LTS kernels started backporting non security fixes like this? To be fair I haven’t looked at this in over a decade but this kind of patch wouldn’t have been backported then.

This is one of those comments that causes Arch to get the reputation that it does. You aren’t wrong and you probably don’t intend to be off-putting but here we are.

Red Hat and Debian both backport security fixes but don’t backport things like laptop device support. It can take a year or more for versions of those distros to gain the kind of functionality that is looking for.

This is an excellent answer. My eli5 addition is this:

It depends on your distro. Distros that do more hand holding and more compatibility without additional operator involvement will be more likely to backport or use a stable kernel with backports like these. Examples: Ubuntu/Fedora/Mint. Distros that focus on system stability will take much longer to integrate backports like these, ex: Debian. And masochists will tell you to do it yourself, ex: lfs, arch.

Everytime I hear about someone or some agency asking for a lie detector, I know that they or the people running the organization are full of shit.

It depends on what you are trying to do… There are many tunnel / reverse proxy routing services like https://www.cloudflare.com/products/tunnel/

Here’s a list https://github.com/anderspitman/awesome-tunneling

You can also get a super cheap vps, do some ssh reverse tunnel magic and go along with your day.

You couldn’t pay me to use this…

And… You are calling me naive?

The reality of the current situation is that Palestine is probably going to cease to exist… And you are asking about a solution where Israel doesn’t cease to exist?

I’m confused.

It is important to recognize that this is going to happen regardless of if it is right or not. Palestine is probably going to cease to exist in the coming months. The leaders of the western world have decided to back Israel in this conflict… This doesn’t mean it’s right. We should absolutely call it out… But this is happening.

Now we have to decide if we let the civilians live or die.

Here is the rest of the story: the people who chose the subdomain chose .ml because they want it to mean marx-lenin… that’s why it means that for them.

Generally you are right. In this specific instance it was chosen for the fascism.

This took a major hit just a few years ago when the UK officially backed out.

Self documenting code is infinitely more valuable than comments because then code spreads with it’s use, whereas the comments stay behind.

I got roasted at my company when I first joined because my naming conventions are a little extra. That lasted for about 2 months before people started to see the difference in legibility as the code started to change.

One of the things I tell my juniors is, “this isn’t the 80s. There isn’t an 80 character line limit. The computer doesn’t benefit from your short variable names. I should be able to read most lines of code as a single non-compound sentence in English with only minor tweaks and the English sentence should be what is happening in most of those lines of code.”

1. Use your existing fork of ‘cooler-stufff’

Everything else is the same.

Edit: you should actually be able to make a new repo and just file your three steps… Give it a try.

You can add the even-cooler-stuff as another remote repo(like origin) and grab those changes and branch off of one of is branches then you can make pull requests to even cooler stuff from those branches.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7244321/how-do-i-update-or-sync-a-forked-repository-on-github

I’m pretty confident the reason GitHub isn’t allowing you to fork the even-cooler-stuff repo is that technically they are the same repo… And multiple remotes should do the trick.

Did you ever solve this?

It’s possible that ownership/group is wrong. Is there a reason you used cp -a. Instead of rsync -a? The rsync version is a much closer duplicate than the cp version.

Edit: also if your base folder has different permissions that you are mounting into docker are different permissions this can happen.

That doesn’t mean that wage is respected in India… Particularly in areas where labor far exceeds demand.
