I think the source is certainly from the Bible, namely from the Psalms. Certainly an English poet would turn the phrase at the end into something more elegant:
[Psalms 48:7f] They that trust in their own strength, and glory in the multitude of their riches, [8] No brother can redeem, nor shall man redeem: he shall not give to God his ransom, [9] Nor the price of the redemption of his soul: and shall labour for ever, [10] And shall still live unto the end.
[Psalms 48:11] He shall not see destruction, when he shall see the wise dying: the senseless and the fool shall perish together: And they shall leave their riches to strangers:
And yet these VM's, like those in docker, are simply not using systemd. They use the simplest init services possible. Systemd is not even useful in a docker image.
No, actually systemd uses things that are exclusive to Linux. This is why systemd cannot be used on *BSD systems. This also forces the BSD people to actually write shims around systemd in order to port normally portable software such as GNOME which have a dependency on systemd.
Systemd is wrong on so many levels. It is not POSIX compliant and makes normally portable software UNPORTABLE to other unix systems. It is a lot like what Microsoft did in the past - make their system necessary for any application. The whole purpose of POSIX was to provide a basic standard which applications could rely on for portability. Granted that POSIX didn't always succeed in this goal, but systemd has fundamentally destroyed years of work for no gain at all.
There is quite a bit of difference between Islam and Christianity.
Christianity might have its share of hypocrites, but the foundational message is the practice of virtue, forgiveness and charity. There are some very bad Christians but these can be dealt with by currently existing laws. Christians who kill and break the law are going against their own code of conduct and so do not form an existential threat to Europe.
Atheists also are generally those who want to see a more 'reasonable' approach to life. At times it can be intolerant of others, but in general [today's] atheism still respects the need for law and order for the peace and prosperity of society.
Islam on the other hand has an entirely different set of values. Its fundamental tenet is to wage Jihad, to such an extent that those Muslims who refuse to wage Jihad are also public enemies. This is one of the reasons that sectarian strife in Muslim countries is very brutal. There is no nation on earth that has accepted Islam voluntarily - it has always been imposed due to military conquest. A believer in Islam does not even accept the authority of the state if it is not in accordance with Sharia law. Islam cannot be simply be dealt with by a policy of appeasement, as its system of belief will not tolerate any other laws but its own.
The real problem is not with Arab peoples or any race, but the horrible book which is named the 'Koran' that incites violence and destruction. Every nation that has adopted Islam has always been at war with itself and other peoples. To think Europe can deal with this crisis of Islam like it has dealt with others is simply not knowing the enemy nor his motivations.
Jail --> Honking Big Ass Server running a bunch of restricted processes. While said process is running self-contained, it's not easily transferable at all.
You obviously never used jails.
You can take a FreeBSD jail, archive and transfer it to any other server quite easily. For instance, with a running jail using ezjail-admin [there are actually many ways to do this]:
# ezjail-admin stop mysql-jail
# ezjail-admin archive mysql-jail
The archive file will be saved [according to configuration] in/usr/jails/mysql-jail.tar.gz
To transfer to another server, just copy this file to another server and do:
There are even better options using zfs-send and the like, which can copy over a snapshot of the current file system to the server.
There are also many advantages to jails that docker simply doesn't have, but I will let other commentors write about them. FreeBSD jails are vastly superior in my humble opinion and are really docker done right. However, in the Linux world docker is definitely a very nice tool
The majority of content on YOUTUBE comes from people uploading their cat videos. Youtube actually doesn't make anything. As soon as they piss off enough users their site disappears. There are plenty of better sites out there, so they better be careful.

Re:Does it offload work to the IMAP server yet?

Mutt 1.5.24 Released

For IMAP, just turn off the cache if you don't want them on your local machine. It is sometimes good to just cache the headers for quicker look, especially if you file commit messages to folders.
Mutt can offload searches to IMAP, and do many wonderful things:
If you want to avoid prefetch, work with =h and =b instead: this leaves the search on the server (if it supports it), but notice that it's literal string only, no regular expression. Note that this feature is not available before version 1.5.11.
Never thought I see to live these energies... and now for 3 years we will get some interesting effects.
Actually what will be the most interesting is that after three years NOTHING HAPPENS, that is to say that our knowledge of Physics is fairly complete. However nature has a way of surprising us.
There are no "Frontiers" in Physics. Reality is just what it is, no more, no less. You can't really have 'frontiers' if there is no subject to limit.
However, our knowledge of these laws and of Physics is somewhat limited. So the headline should read: "Testing the frontiers of our knowledge of Physics". But I guess it couldn't fit in a tweet or whatever.
Actually no. Elop came in 2011, when Nokia was still selling more phones than Samsung and Apple. However *Android* had just begun to have majority of marketshare.
You would think that a simple search of a cheap fare would be a relatively easy task. It actually is quite difficult.
I recently read this article from ITA systems which makes this sort of software: [pdf warning]: here. Very interesting read and shows that airline pricing is not as simple as it sounds.
In the pricing of a ticket one has to take care of not only of fuel, food, personnel and aircraft, but also landing fees, luggage handling fees and the rest. It is no wonder that some pricing looks a little arcane to the customer - because it is.
The tiller was used because the first cars were about as slow as boats, so they were steered with a tiller like boats. However as cars became faster and more powerful the tiller was no longer adequate, and thus the wheel was adopted as it simply worked better. Yet your example only proves the point: since the 19th century there has been NO CHANGE in this UI for steering a car. Once the wheel was invented, no one wanted to go back to the tiller and no one even invented some other way to steer a car. There is something optimal in the use of the steering wheel that makes any other refinements and changes useless.
Similarly the first graphic UI's were full of experimentation. Even the first Mac OS's had the menu bar in the window, but was moved out in early beta phase as the idea was that it was easier on the user to simply look always in the same place for the applications' commands, and has remained there ever since. Windows traditionally had the menu bar inside the window, with very little exceptions. However your example shows the same thing I am trying to get across: they DON'T change once they've made a decision.
X11 window managers actually gives you more choice - you can have either way or both. I think an argument can be made for either one. It seems that today, at least in Linux land, there is a tendancy to put the menu bar as something permanent on top (at least in Unity), but many desktops still keep the in-window menu bar.
To be honest I don't even like Mac OS X or Windows style menu bars. I actually use i3-wm as my hands are always on the keyboard. The mouse is a useless thing in my honest opinion, but for drawing and things like that it is indeed useful. Most of my work is at the keyboard, so I like the UI to be controllable with the keyboard. The menu bar is for some users needed, but I have different work habits from the era before we had X11 so I would say I'm more an exception than the rule.
In any case, my point stands: if it works for the user, don't change it. Every change involves an investment of time and energy which must be considered - is the amount of time to be gained by this new UI really worth the time it takes to learn it?
The majority of users are not teenagers. And in reality we older fellows actually work for a living and make money for our companies. We are the actual USERS of the equipment.
Most teenagers are using computers for video games. It really doesn't matter what the OS GUI is like for this. If they complain about the "old GUI" it's often because they are too lazy to learn how to use it.
And furthermore "the better UI" simply sucks. Proof in point.
Any sane GUI designer would be wiser to think of the actual users, and not just what is a "subjectively better UI". There is a reason why things have been done the way they are for so long, and to ignore these reason is simply stupid.
No. Ada already has a very basic syntax, which if you look at the Ada example is so much like Rust that really I fail to see any significant difference. Ada is also completely buzz-word compliant. It has also been used to make real projects, and even has a ANSI Standard since 1983. Rust can't even guarantee a feature set, nor even a stable keyword set.
Wish them luck, but frankly it's a bit like reinventing the wheel. I guess it's what hipsters do when they skip CS 102 in order to 'find themselves' - try to 'reinvent' what they should have learned in college.
The death of Symbolics was in some ways the catalyst to the death of the AI industry and LISP in general. Although the company was (very) badly managed, RMS is responsible for a lot of the infighting and political grandstanding that basically killed the company. With the death of Symbolics and the consequent poison-pill of coding politics, programming in LISP just became unprofitable and eventually died out. Granted there are many other factors, but this was one of them.
I invite you to read the history of the MIT AI lab to see a bit of the shit that happened there.
RMS hasn't programmed anything for a long time. He is more of an activist than engineer - always has been, always will be.

No one takes these things seriously, as the real world doesn't care about the Dutch Academy. The country will soon be overrun by Muslims anyway.
Yes.
Perhaps you have never lived in a Communist country, which were by law atheistic. The Gulags were filled with religious and priests.

Very ironic when we consider that systemd refuses to be POSIX compliant.
In Poland we had 5 year plans *every year* during Soviet times. Each year the plan would be better!
Except once we had a 7 year plan, and the teacher made us put little 'siodemki' [7s] on the Christmas tree. This was the great gift of Stalin!
And in spite of planning, you still had to wait in line for three hours to get 300 grams of meat, but perhaps that was the plan....
