Stop and identify yourself, apparently.

The 1st column is the lines unique to the 1st file, the 2nd column is the lines unique to the 2nd file, and the 3rd one is the lines that are not unique. -1, -2, -3 allow to disable those columns. Pretty easy to remember.

Ah, HN downvoting neutral comments again and I don't like it, but I have a policy of not upvoting anything out of pity.

I like how this article's title doesn't claim that it's about utils "that you don't know". Yet I was expecting utils that have something to do with the Linux kernel, not generic *nix command-line tools.

> I Lost Everything

I doubt that a person who can post about it on the internet did actually lose everything. Most likely he leads quite a luxurious life: he is a wealthy (compared to other parts of the world) American, most likely wrote his story from his MacBook and has a place to live. A lot of people can only dream about a life like his. His expectations is what makes him believe that he "lost everything".

P.S. Clicked on the link after writing this post. Yeah, the guy actually wrote it from his MacBook.

Bitcoin never promised anonymity. Bitcoin transactions are not anonymous and never were.

Why didn't you call them out on their bullshit?

> Human judges give ugly people twice the sentences of attractive people. Judges have been shown to give significantly harsher sentences just before lunch, when they are hungry.

It would be nice if you could provide sources for these claims.

One way to access the article without getting blocked by their adblock blocker is to wait for the page to load, press <F12>, go to the debugger (in Chromium, it's the tab called "Sources") and stop JavaScript (a pause button). Then you can scroll down safely and read it.

So, how much megabytes (compressed) does it take to store all of your corpora?
