wifi on servers and fedora [was Re: 7.2 kernel panic on boot]
...at least 5 mailing lists, including this one, each ranging in business from 10-30 emails/day. 2. I work full time as a sysadmin, dealing with over 178 workstations, servers, and clusters. 3. I actually have a life outside of computers. 4. I don't notice any response to the huge and vehement reaction to systemd. Given all that, how much more of my life should I spend on yet *another* busy list, esp. when I do *not* want to install fedora, and debug an o/s at home? mark "had to come in an hour early to bring up servers in the datacenter due to power work ove...

...better for round holes than round pegs, especially when you didn't want the peg to rotate in the hole). Anyway, a form of pseudo-persistence that meets the OP's needs is already supported directly by systemd-tmpfiles, which is a part of the core systemd package and non-optional, so your vehement disagreement is moot, sorry.? The round hole already has a square-peg adapter, at least in CentOS 7.? Packagers just need to select the proper 'adapter' for systemd-tmpfiles; the adaptation is not (and should not be, in my opinion) automatic.

[LLVMdev] Getting Started
...on to find out that "oh hey, they support git", or "oh, they have CMake so I can develop in visual studio like I'm comfortable with". Also, as I'm sure you have witnessed on the lists, choice of build system and (local) version control is something that people are quite vehement about, to the point that failing to put those options in newcomers' faces could result in outright *losing a developer* or at least dampening their enthusiasm (the importance of which is not to be underestimated). I have yet to see anyone complain about a lack of automation for getting set up....

I vehemently disagree. Use the return value and type that make sense for the ABI and will be unsurprising when reading the code. Use a ! when you need to produce early-exit code flows. A note about error objects: you should always have a variable and/or type name here. This gives you the opportunity to mak...

LVM hatred, was Re: /boot on a separate partition?

I don't "hate" LVM, but don't care for it. And in most cases, or at least my own, and the person who is vehemently against it, it's based on personal experience. How is that "not a rational thing"? For that matter, haven't you ever gotten gunshy when something that's billed as the LATESTGREATESTTHINGSINCESLICEDBREAD is buggy, and not ready for prime time? Certainly 10-12 years ago, that...

I disagree vehemently. Please STOP giving any advice or making any suggestions along the lines of persisting /var/run. It *is* meant to be volatile. Anyone who is packaging an application for CentOS 7 must realise this, and package their application accordingly. NO OTHER SOLUTION is acceptable. Folks, please stop giv...

Type III sums of squares.

People keep saying this --- very vehemently --- and it is NOT TRUE. Point 1 --- imbalance is really irrelevant here, a fact which is usually (always?) overlooked. If the design is balanced, all ``types'' of sums of squares are the same. The sequential sums of squares which R will happily produce might well contain ``significant&...

[LLVMdev] Any objections to my importing GoogleMock to go with GoogleTest in LLVM?
I'm sorry I even sent the original email. To be clear, I am trying to write some specific code, and gmock would make my life significantly easier. I'm not really trying to start or win a debate about how to write tests in LLVM. I think that debate should be held around tests, not around abstract libraries if it is even worth having at all. I am a big believer in giving people a powerful

[LLVMdev] Add support for ldr pseudo instruction in ARM integrated assembler
...rgument that "GCC does it" is used far too often in the LLVM list, and I can't say I'm a big fan of it. GCC did not take *only* smart decisions in its life (neither did LLVM), and copying everything from one side to the other blindly is not a good strategy. In the general case, I vehemently agree with this. I am deeply concerned about the direction of some of the target assemblers in this regard. I’m a little more sympathetic to this specific case because it’s a feature of not just binutils, but the ARM tools also and last I checked, well documented. That said, great care and delib...
