Guys, What was the rationale behind moving to the swiss army-ish method of render(:X), as opposed to the various render_X methods that existed before? I find it easier to keep the render_X style in my brain, rather than trying to remember what the valid parameters to render() are. It''s also more code completion f...

Good afternoon, I wanted to ask quickly about the rationale for not allowing explicit declaration of a log file to receive logging output. Whilst using syslogd is convenient for system processes, for short-lived applications, such as booting an SSH server (and wishing to monitor it) for testing purposes? having to also configure syslogd to receive output is...

Hello, I am a bit curious about the rationale for the current callback-based object cache API. For Numba, it would be easier if there would be a simple procedural API: - one method to get a module's compiled object code - one method to load/instantiate a module from a given piece of object code I manage to get around the callback-based A...

...some reference, then it is highly appreciated. I would like to understand the rationaly. Not why 'it is just like it is'. No, why. What is the reasoning behind it. I speak Dutch, English, some Japanese and C. So, I can write something to patch it up in C. But if I do not understand the rationale behind it, what is the value of the writing in any language? If I do not understand the context, that you think I should implicitly understand, what should I do? I can send in a patch if you like.

Do you know what is the rationale for that? The static linker will optimize it anyway (but not do as good a job as the compiler could). If unsure I think it is safer to go without the 'default'. It is easier to add it to IL later than to remove it if it turns out we don't need it. > Thanks, > Hans Cheers, Rafae...

Since you state that using -z is almost always a bad idea, could you provide the rationale for that? I must be missing something. ________________________________ From: CentOS <centos-bounces at centos.org> on behalf of Peter Kjellstr?m <cap at nsc.liu.se> Sent: Wednesday, March 25, 2020 9:34 AM To: Simon Matter <simon.matter at invoca.ch> Cc: centos at centos.org &lt...

Hi Guus, I am wondering why MACExpire was introduced in: ,---- | commit 14979f835df4214a7c2510852f7ffedc9e08c2c0 | Author: Guus Sliepen <guus at tinc-vpn.org> | Date: Fri Mar 1 14:09:31 2002 +0000 | | - Global time_t now, so that we don't have to call time() too often. | - MAC addresses expire after a time configurable by MACExpire (default 600 | seconds) `---- Is

I'm curious, and perhaps a bit naive about this stuff. I'd like to know the reason for having a klibc-$HASH.so version which the shared apps are linked against. It makes it less simple to build a static initramfs file list to use. Currently, one has to read the libc.so.hash file to build the filename, something that can't be done in a file list passed to gen_init_cpio unless it's

Hi guys, Is the current setting of `AlwaysBreakTemplateDeclarations: false` for LLVMStyle intentional? What was the rationale? Some rough counts on the LLVM codebase: same-line: $ git grep -E 'template.*(class|struct).*{' -- '*.h' '*.cpp' | wc -l 214 (most of them are tiny traits classes, like isPodLike or DenseMapInfo) not-same-line: $ git grep -A1 -h 'template' -- '*.h' '*...

i''m running the following script: #pragma D option quiet profile:::tick-1sec / ++x >= 15 / { exit(0); } io:::start { @io_size[execname] = sum(args[0]->b_bcount); } on exit, the script prints out the value of @io_size, why? there''s no printa(), and i also specified "D option quiet" (i also tried -q). this seems to happen with any kind of probe: on exit(0) all

While I'm at it, I noticed a behaviour which is not exactly related but similar. To put it simply, you can 't do T.V.W, you need to do !cast<Bla>(T.V).W Example: class Bla<string t> { string blu = t; } class Bli<Bla t> { Bla bla = t; } def a : Bli<Bla<"">>; def b : Bla<!cast<Bla>(a.bla).blu>; // works def b :

...http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/xen/users/177385#177385. I have the same thing going on: hypervisors with E5620 Xeon CPUs and hypervisors with E5410 CPUs. Live migrations go wrong when domU''s are not created on the latter and move from the E5410 servers to more recent ones. The rationale being that these CPU''s have less or other capabilities than the newer ones. Is there any way to work around this?

Hi all I am missing something on the the pop3 "leave messages" rationale. Although the UIDL feature solves for the MUA the problem "whch mails should be downloaded", how the duration that these mails should be kept on server, say 10 days for one MUA and 20 days for another MUA for the same account, is resolved on the server? thanks in advance -- ??????...

...rk. Luckilly, someone said (and I quote) 'mv /etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.bak /etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and blame kudzu'... So, what did I do wrong, or what should I have done differently? What's the reasoning behind this? I'll bet there is some rationale, and I'd like to understand it. Thanks, Mike

...lackware64 14.0 Incidentally, I'm thinking of making two sshfs documentation enhancement requests. But are they based on misconception? They are: 1. Mount options. In the sshfs general options, mount options (-o opt,[opt...]) documentation, additionally specify which options are available. Rationale: sshfs rightly does not support all the mount man page's "FILESYSTEM INDEPENDENT MOUNT OPTIONS" and the mount man page does not have a section for sshfs. There is thus no documentation to tell the sshfs user which mount options are available. For example I found by experiment that n...
