The Importance of Pipelines in Complex UNIX Data Interpretations

Pipelines are a foundational feature of UNIX systems, enabling the seamless flow of data between programs. This capability lies at the heart of UNIX philosophy, emphasizing modularity, simplicity, and the use of small, reusable programs that perform specific tasks well.

My 2025 project is to work on my new Linux computer with more open source softwares, and reduce my addiction to Photoshop. Which is gonna be tough let's be honest 😅

And we're done! I need to do some light sanding to tidy up the edges, but I'm pretty pleased with how these turned out. I'm going to leave it up to the recipient to decide how to decorate them. 3D model available here, including the #FreeCad source: printables.com/model/1115339-t… #Christmas #Tagalog #Welsh #3Dmodelling #3dprinting #cnc #hobbycnc 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇵🇭

On this #FreeCADFriday, I’m using the #Gridfinity and Part Design workbenches to make some screwdriver trays for my toolbox. The cool thing about these is that the cutout shape is the same between trays, but I only have to tweak the dimensions for each specific screwdriver. (All of mine are different)

I also made one to hold a hex bit holder that I designed and printed a few years ago. That one is a half-width tray because I have a half row at one end of my toolbox drawer.




How do you do, fellow web developers? A growing disconnect.

My two favorite interview answers I got a while ago:

- What is the complexity of this algorithm?
- Um, I see no complexity, it's quite straightforward.

And:
- On what protocol level ports are implemented? [asked in the middle of a talk about HTTP]
- Not sure, I think USB?

Those people were not joking, and I'm sure they also weren't dumb, but I still can't get used to the context gap that I have with many people with web development background.

Copy editor desperately needed...

Article refers to people living in a city "75 miles west of Los Angeles"... Uhh.

in reply to Dan Gillmor

given how far north Los Angeles city limits are in the San Fernando valley, I think it's completely valid.

your boos mean nothing to me; i've seen what make you cheer!


it works well in the realm of politics because now centrists are a-okay with genocide so long as they believe that the other guy is going to genocide harder.
