Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    What's up with find? I've got so used to fd that I don't understand what this is referring to

    [–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 68 points 5 months ago (6 children)

    When you want to find something in a different path than your current one you have to supply it as the first argument. When you try to do find -name foo.bar /path it will complain that the path should be the first argument. So it knows what you're trying to do and instead of doing it it just complaints.

    Nice, UX is clearly a top priority (;

    I'll have to try and see if FD does the same bullshit though

    I dont think it does. The thing that annoys me about fd is that it uses regex as a default for patterns while I'm used to having glob as default everywhere else.

    I mean you could alias the glob option as the default but I clearly see your point about standardized default behaviour.
