    1. Types.

      You explode lists manually into items when calling commands on a variable list of arguments instead of “quoting variables” to prevent them from exploding.

      Who came up with the bullshit idea that exploding strings into words is such a common use case that this footgun is preferable to have an “explode lists” syntax?

    2. Errors. No more set -euo pipefail; shopt -s lastpipe to beat some semblance of sanity into bash








  • The “9 steps and 24 hours waiting” thing is kinda misleading: that’s once. Only the last two steps (the ones matching today’s steps) have to be repeated.

    Of course that’s still an issue (e.g. you’ll only be able to do this for a relative if you see them two days in a row) but it’s much less bad than the implied “9 steps and 24 hours waiting every time”

    LMAO this is not one of those. All Iranians I know (like 5) celebrated the US invading at first because it gave them hope that there might be a revolution. I was very skeptical that it would turn out that way because of how shit the USA is.

    I’m not sure who you’re rooting for, but I’m pretty justified in my take, don’t you think?

    Or are you going to tell me that all the people who emigrated and go back regularly have no clue and are victims of propaganda? That would be pretty chauvinistic of you.

    Np, I’m skeptical of all propaganda that I can identify. USA, China, Russia, Israel, Germany, …

    It’s hard to identify and I’m not perfect at it, but generally it’s a good role of thumb to assume that all atrocities are real. You seem to believe that all are but China’s, doesn’t that seem fishy to you?
