thank you for the explanation that is a lot more understandable now.
hostages being released in order to stop the violence is what I was thinking.
but you’re saying it’s more like losing leverage in order to temporarily pause the violence.
they would have nothing left to bargain with and would just have to hope the world actually cares enough to step in.
I can definitely see why they wouldn’t want to do that
maybe I am missing something that I don’t see why that is an objectionable position? like obviously the ceasefire needs to happen immediately but what is wrong with hostage release as part of it?
not that long ago politicians were doing anything they could to avoid the word ceasefire and now they’re actively calling for it I’m really not thinking that this is an unchanged position but I am willing to listen if I have some drastic misunderstanding.
honestly doesn’t it seem like this change of direction is him listening? Even weeks ago I would have never thought I would have heard the words ceasefire out of his mouth.
to me this seems like a direct response of the message people sent to him with the Michigan primary and I am happy to see it.
doesn’t mean I’m happy with what he’s done so far or even that he has not immediately taken direct action but this is a pivot and failing to acknowledge it weakens protest actions like this in the future.
I definitely spent a frustrated 45 minutes trying to figure out why curl wasn’t working when it was supposed to be supported in PowerShell.
then I hit tab a couple of times and noticed curl.exe was an option, that works exactly the same as I had expected with original syntax.
they do this to a lot of things though a lot of common commands end up being an alias to a powershell command with a specific option set that doesn’t always line up
oh great I’m sure the training for this will not result in a bunch of things getting “reviewed” and no one being responsible for mistakes at all…
I use awk all the time. a very common and probably simplest reason I use it is it’s ability to handle variable column locations for data.
if you know you always want the last field you can do something like
awk '{print $NF}'
but usually using it as for performing more advanced operations all in one go without having to pipe something three times.
sure you can do grep cut grep printf, but you can instead do the pattern matching, the field, the formatting, whatever you need to all in one place.
it’s also got a bunch of more advanced usage of course since it’s its own language. one of my favorite advanced one liners is one that will recognize if it is going to print a duplicate line anywhere in your output and prevent it. in cases where you don’t want to sort your output but you also want to remove duplicates it is extremely helpful and quick rather than running post-processing on the output in another way.
all that said main reason I use it is because I know it and it’s fast, there’s nothing you can do in awk that you can’t do in Python or whatever else you’re more comfortable with. The best tool for the job is the one that gets it done quickly and accurately. unless your environment is limited and it prevents the installation of tools you’re more familiar with then there’s no real reason to use this over Python.
honestly I would pay an extra $10 for this feature on pretty much any game
that what I assumed
ah that’s right, been a while since sociology courses lol
do you mean negative reinforcement?
it’s like a grid right
so things that we want:
things we don’t want
honestly any insect that primarily feeds on blood would be good to go.
screw all of those things
agree with one and two and younger me would have agreed with your third point but I think I don’t anymore.
yes cut is the simpler and mostly functional tool you need for those tasks.
but it is just so common to need a slight tweak or to want to substitute something or to want to do a specific regex match or weird multi character delimiter or something and you can do it all easily in awk instead of having to pipe three extra times to do everything with the simplest tool.
honestly I got one of these and ended up going back to brushing my tongue. maybe I am like more thoroughly brushing my tongue than other people or something but it never was as clean from a tongue scraper as from brushing
basically a better newer Kinect for my kids. something that’d let them dance or play or see themselves in the game without a controller
I swear it’s like my wife and kids intentionally waits until I sit down to ask for stuff
