I've been helping people navigate their careers for nearly two decades, and I can tell you this: most professionals are terrible at asking for raises. Not because they don't deserve them, but because they don't know what to say when negotiating salary.| Jobacle.com
So, for whatever reason, while running ls command, I wanted my directory to be sorted by the length of the names in it, not by some other sorting method ls uses. After a bit of trial and error experimenting, I ended up with the following pipeline to do that: for i in *; do echo `echo "$i" | wc -c` "$i"; done | sort -n | cut -f2- -d" " | xargs -d \\n ls -Uld Let's break this command into peaces| Everything about nothing
I just changed one of my scripts that, in principle, looked like this: for i in `find . -type d`do # do some processing on the found directorydone The new format I use is: find . -type d | while read ido # do some processing on the found directorydone While both versions will work in general, the second variant is better for the following reasons: It's faster.| Everything about nothing

It's the best episode of Red Dwarf of all time. Undefeated in all four of our anniversary polls so far, more often than not the winner of other wide-ranging surveys by the Smegazine and Better Than Life, and even given a special BBC2 repeat screening under the title The Best Ever Red Dwarf. It happened to be the first episode I ever saw, probably the one I've rewatched the most, and quite possibly the single piece of media in the entire history of human civilisation that I'm most familiar wi...| Ganymede & Titan
This is a quick one, it’s been forever since I’ve posted here. After moving back to Autotask, there’s still a ton of things to automate.
