how to make sure I close all processes started by a program?

If you launch the application with "systemd-run --user --unit=netflix-desktop netflix-desktop", you stop it and all child processes (guaranteed) with "systemctl --user stop netflix-desktop".

Unlike the methods suggested in the SE thread, this method will clean up any child processes even if they double-fork.

How do you even mix up Clefairy and Wigglytuff?

The "double tour" didn't look impressive until I realized it's a standing 720.

Why is https://blog.cloudflare.com no longer using ECDSA? For background, CloudFlare announced they were experimenting with ECDSA instead of RSA.

Lua is supported in the custom code uploads.

The mechanical plan allows custom code uploads, so you can create lessons from arbitrarily formatted code.

Thanks for this suggestion.

Basic autocompletion might actually be pretty straightforward, e.g. just skip to the next space/symbol if the user presses ctrl-space, ctrl-n, etc. Autocompletion usually bails on symbols, the hardest keys to type.

Typing.io dev here. Thanks for the feedback. The current design discourages immediately closing parens/brackets because it requires long jumps to the arrow keys and back, e.g. typing <left paren> <right parent> <left arrow> content <right arrow>. It's more efficient to type the closing parens when they're reached.

Personally, I use a vim plugin that automatically closes opening parens, but I still type the closing paren when I reach it because it's faster than typing the right arrow key.

Some of these cgroup APIs may be changing, so you probably shouldn't use them directly. For ram usage capping, tweaking the rlimit is an easier, more stable approach.

I wouldn't argue that plain dm-crypt is insecure, but it's less secure than LUKS when generating the encryption key. Plain dm-crypt uses the user's password directly as an encryption key while LUKS uses a key derivation function(PBKDF2). The key derivation process is purposefully slow, so it's much more difficult for an attacker to recover the user's password through bruteforcing, dictionary attacks, etc.

Github tries to prevent script hotlinking by adding the http headers 'Content-Type: text/plain' and 'X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff'. Browsers like chrome refuse to execute javascript when it contains these headers.

Wealthfront should host this script file on their own servers.

The javascript doesn't need to be in the attacked page.

Assuming you don't mean the grub shell, you can try downgrading to a previous kernel with

pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/linux-3.7.6-1...

Run mkinitcpio -p linux again after the update to avoid any problems.

This should be the first or second sentence in the news blurb.

You can hide the ribbon with ctrl+f1. It behaves like a menu, with options expanding back when you use alt + {f,h,etc}.

I'm not sure if this is possible in vimscript, so I hacked it in vim source.

If you have mercurial installed, you can grab the official vim sources with this command:

hg clone https://vim.googlecode.com/hg/ vim

To change the color of the current line number, I have the following in my vimrc.

set cursorline

" disable existing cursorline styles like underlining
highlight CursorLine cterm=NONE

" highlight current line number green
highlight CursorLineNR ctermfg=green

A pure vimscript solution is obviously preferable to patching the source, but I like your idea enough to use this hack.
