git clone --recursive endless-fucking.git human_race/

Write a kickstart script, learn to use anacron for updates and housekeeping tasks. Takes less than a day to learn, and from then on you'll have a working setup in an hour or less.

No value? More like n o e x c u s e s

Pretty sure it was written in OCaml first and then bootstrapped

Worked for me: https://if-not-true-then-false.com/...

Alternatively, if you're doing a fresh install, look into using something like Korora which has a lot of drivers/repository stuff already set up

git fsck --lost-found

Every song from Dear Esther 👌🏻

You left thirsty guys in the desert.

Sorry, I didn't catch that 😉

Third apple is at index 2. Fourth apple is at index 3. Cmon now.

@iakar I agree that programming can't teach you calculus. But we now face the same problem, just in a different field. I can teach myself calculus using free online resources, such as khan academy. Why should I have to take out 50,000+ in loans to accomplish the same goal? A college degree is important, yes - especially in today's world, but inherently it feels worthless. There's value in hard work and networking too, but you don't need college for that. Mark Twain put it best when he said "I have never let my schooling interfere with my education."

@Mitch377 you bring up a good exception. Congrats on the experience 😊 not all colleges are as awful as I made it seem, but some definitely need improvement.

@rayanon word. I have seen a couple companies hiring talent rather than degree (rackspace and dropbox I think) which made me want to cry with joy. There is still hope.

"finished"

Social engineering is a valid and usually critical part of a hack.

Try poltergeist 👌

Polishing a turd is different than fixing a turd

@bdhobare Forkbomb. Completely harmless 😉

Paperweight.

Now's your chance to use Fedora 😉 your laptop might be trying to tell you something

I doubt using subversion will save the world 😉

Copy and paste, refactor with haste.

Try Arch if you're really into Linux.

@azous assuming this is Java we can actually have working default methods in plain interfaces. Abstract classes, however, have the benefits of inheriting public and protected instance variables as well as having the behavior of an interface.

Jack of all trades, master of none... but better than a master of one. Learn a few reliable skills and you'll do great.

Consolas, Courier New, Source Code Pro, and Droid Sans Mono are fonts I've used throughout the years

@perix2 Depends on the person and the domain. Experiment with some live cds and pick one that works. For a student like OP I'd check out a well-known distro like Ubuntu or Fedora.

@d4ng3r0u5 Savage.

Your hardware is perfectly fine. I've got a 6+ year old computer with similar specs running like new. Backup important data, wipe that drive clean (or get a new one if you want) and install a solid Linux distro. Your life will never be the same.

@linux-colonel Agreed. Commits may be big or small, as long as the changes are documented. It's up to the developer to decide what counts as an acceptable "unit" for commit sizes. One may commit a couple lines or a whole set of files. If one does commit lots of files at a time, I've found one gets pretty good at writing commit messages, though!
