They changed something about the noodles and now they are way overcooked if you follow the box instructions. And you need way more butter to get a similar flavor to before.

Because that's a syscall ;) https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/flock.1.html is the command line manual.

I would say one good reason is that

  waitlock myapp &
  JOB_PID=$!
  # ... do exclusive work ...
  kill $JOB_PID
is a lot easier to use and remember than

  (; flock -n 9 || exit 1; # ... commands executed under lock ...; ) 9>/var/lock/mylockfile

Got to number 15 and the color was #C61. My choices were #D52, #161, #C61, and #C63. Sadly, I guessed #C63 and lost.

Maybe there should be some minimum distance between all of the choices.

>dual-license the engine under both their current non-OSS modified Apache and the GPL.

Of course if they do, I hope they will say "either modified Apache or the GPL".

My company's lawyers made a big stink about us using jQuery plugins that said "and" instead of "or".

>having it in the raw form while typing

This is actually an option in the settings (on desktop, at least).

>closure #2 closes over closure #1

I don't see this in the example. Closure #1 is never bound in the scope, as far as I can tell. Could you explain how closure #1 is closed over without being bound?

If you're shipping from northern hemisphere to northern hemisphere, then you also save to time/fuel to go down to Panama. No idea if that's significant or not.
