A relatively trim list for the holiday weekend.
- You have ruined HTML. (via)
- Do you want to enjoy this? (via)
- Useful Unix commands for exploring data. (via)
- The most unintentionally tragic tech advert we’ve ever seen.
- Doom 3 in Ada. (via)
- The Beauty of Roots. (via)
- Shift Happens. Notable for the revenue difference between Apple and IBM.
- Distributed big balls of mud. Microservices are not the answer. (via)
- Unix/Linux trick: ‘cd’ back to the previous directory. I forget this. (via)

Your unrelated comics link of the week: “Horse.” One of my favorite single panels of all time.
For zsh users:
% cd /var
% cd /var/db
% cd /var/db/pkg/
% cd /home/
% cd /home/jrm/
% cd /home/jrm/tmp/
% cd /home/jrm/tmp/blah
% cd –
0 — /var
1 — /var/db
2 — /var/db/pkg
3 — /home
4 — /home/jrm
5 — /home/jrm/tmp
Hitting [file]tab[/file] after the [cmd]cd -[/cmd] gives the list shown, then you can make your selection.
Interesting on the zsh bit.
Question though, with regard to the microservices link, isn’t that the design of the DragonFly kernel with LWKT?
