@MichaelHomer I get the impression they’re rephrasing the reason, but it’s still shown. I don’t get the point either, since the author can still see the close-voters; I was under the impression that the voting retaliation campaigns on SO usually involved the author...
@MichaelHomer well, I was thinking that “This question needs detail or clarity.” is the new way of saying “put on hold as unclear what you’re asking”, and that other close reasons would be rephrased differently.
The major issue I’ve seen people get annoyed by is the fact that voters are lumped together, so you can be listed as having said something about a question when you voted for another close reason.
@MichaelHomer yup, and in the comments, Meg says that users with close/re-open privileges will see the closing voters anyway (since they can see voting history).
Markdown question relating to answering on the site: How may I create two ">" paragraphs directly after each other with a break in-between them that looks good? Inserting a <br> creates a too big break (see e.g. my answer >here<).
@JeffSchaller thank you! Now to catch up with slm ;-). At least the part of the plan where Kusalananda becomes moderator has resulted in a slight slow-down in his rep acquisition process...
The problem isn't the backslashes, those are fine. The problem is the \w
$ echo ab aa cc de mn | gawk '{print gensub(/(\w)\1/, "\\1\\1\\1", "g")}'
ab aa cc de mn
$ echo ab aa cc de mn | gawk '{print gensub(/([a-z])/, "\\1\\1\\1", "g")}'
aaabbb aaaaaa cccccc dddeee mmmnnn
Anyone use Arch here? I was experimenting with some Linux kernel things. I found that the linux-headers package has /usr/src/linux-xyz symbolic link but linux-lts-headers package does not have that file. Any cause?
Little confused on something with environment variables I've set. In my ~/.bashrc I've set some vars like JAVA_HOME, MVN_HOME, and export-ed them. I then prepend PATH with those vars and export that. I use a logger invocation to log the contents of PATH and it seems that before I even prepend the PATH variable, it already has all the vars. The results in a double prepending. Anyone know what I did wrong?
@JeffSchaller When I open my first shell after logging via gdm or whatever, the logger statement in .bashrc shows that PATH already has my Java, Maven, and IntelliJ variable definitions prepended.
The notion of login shells vs interactive shells is confusing me a little. Login shells are when you login via GDM for example, or ssh in. non-login interactive shells are when I open up a terminal "normally", right?
login shells source .bash_profile
interactive shells source .bashrc?
A login shell has the first character of the first argument as '-'
The logs make it seem like, at login via graphical login, .bash_profile is hit and then sources .bashrc right away. The PATH log is the default path without my additions. Then when I open up a terminal, only .bashrc gets hit, which means that PATH gets prepended once again with my additions.
So .bash_profile is for initializing the environment on login, and .bashrc is for interactive, non-login shells
@Ungeheuer well, your bash_profile is explicitly calling .bashrc, so that part makes sense. When the new bash shell starts in the terminal, it reads .bashrc and prepends again
@JeffSchaller Thanks for this answer, it's a good explanation. bookmarked
@JeffSchaller Yea, my issue was I couldn't remember which one mattered for new terminal sessions. For some reason I got it into my head that I needed to define things in .bashrc....
