[02:44:06] <Bytram> btw, worth noting we are approaching the end of the 'silly season' where many/most researchers in the (northern hemisphere, at least) take vacations, and schools are out, so genuine research articles are few and far between.

[02:28:31] -!- mode/#editorial [+v takyon_] by Hephaestus
[02:28:31] -!- takyon_ [takyon_!~422c73bf@Soylent/Staff/Editor/takyon] has joined #editorial
[01:47:29] <Bytram> back
[01:37:00] <Bytram> break trime; biab
[01:22:23] <Bytram> ab / ac / ba / bc / ca /cb
[01:22:04] <Bytram> when invoked by a batch wrapper program, spits one combinations of values... e.g. "COMBO 2 a b c" would output all combinations of 3 objects ('a', 'b', and 'c') taken 2 at a time.
[01:20:51] <Bytram> 05/27/1993 07:52 PM 1,967 combo.awk
[01:20:50] <Bytram> in some cases, yes. In others, it's tested code that has held up under repeated use.
[01:19:40] <cmn32480> prolly can trash much of that
[01:19:26] <Bytram> FYI, I just checked my main tools dir, oldest one I found there was dated: 08/11/1992 12:27 PM
[01:19:23] <cmn32480> damned if you do and damned if you don't
[01:19:04] <Bytram> that'll be good for a month, maybe two, before I become a sitting target for zero days that get patches that I don't install
[01:18:06] <cmn32480> or just turn off Windows updates
[01:17:44] <cmn32480> I think we all do
[01:17:43] <Bytram> IU suppose I should start with an 'easy' route and put Ubuntu on another box (if I had one) and try to use that as my new main system, and port things over as I needed them.
[01:16:59] <Bytram> I've got prolly 20+ years of customized batch programs and apps I've gathered over the years.
[01:16:27] <cmn32480> work isn't gonna allow that...
[01:16:20] <cmn32480> yeah...
[01:15:13] * Bytram is gonna have to make a real stab to moving off windows, then.
[01:14:16] <cmn32480> that's about accurate
[01:13:52] <Bytram> well, that and it appears that they are trying to force users into an all-or-nothing update model... you want the security fix, then you also have to install the bundled telemetry updates, too. (I may have read that wrong, but that is the sense that I got.)
[01:12:55] <cmn32480> Well.. one bullet dodged... looks like Exchange is back up
[01:11:39] <cmn32480> major changes to operating systems they wanna kill... that ain't too fishy
[01:11:27] <cmn32480> yeah....
[01:10:40] <Bytram> well, shouldn't be too muchof a problem since MS has such a massive and skilled QA team... right? :P
[01:10:12] <cmn32480> same update model as win 10
[01:10:04] <cmn32480> I saw
[01:09:57] <DiversityInitiative> ^ 03Further simplifying servicing models for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 ? Windows for IT Pros
[01:09:55] <Bytram> see: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com
[01:09:43] <Bytram> yep, you are in the line of fire
[01:09:27] <cmn32480> but they are my Exchange and SQLServer servers
[01:09:15] <cmn32480> 2008R2
[01:09:05] <DiversityInitiative> ^ 03Microsoft changes Win7/8.1 updates, pushes even harder for Windows 10 | InfoWorld
[01:09:04] <Bytram> FYI: http://www.infoworld.com
[01:08:29] <Bytram> which version of windows?
[01:08:15] <Bytram> here's wishing you the best of luck on that one!
[01:08:06] <cmn32480> currently installing windows updates.... <cringe>
[01:07:38] <cmn32480> I'll take a poke at it tonight... if my servers come back on line in good working order
[01:07:27] * Bytram submitted it.
[01:07:14] <Bytram> if not, there's been no nibbles for 2 weeks, bin it.
[01:06:56] <Bytram> change it to 'Thoughts on Thinking'
[01:06:46] <Bytram> I don't like the title, but it was what the linked blog article had. Maybe
[01:06:39] <cmn32480> hmmm?
