Some code is so bad it deserves to be buried thousands of feet underground with a sign above reading: "nothing valued is here, what is here was dangerous and repulsive to us"

Using system("echo") to create a text file ... using user-generated input. No words.

Good morning, folks. Have a sysadmin tip:

When you ssh to a remote system, make it a habit to run either `screen` or `tmux` first. Always. Even for just a quick little command.

That way, when your crap ISP monopoly drops your connection for no reason whatsoever, your remote command won't be SIGHUP'd, & you can resume with `screen -r` or `tmux attach` when they decide your connection can be restored.

I declare Computer Science a pest : quickly destroy your computer and give it zero platform. You must give it zero platform. You must starve it.
