The most interesting addition we’ve seen in a while is rolling out to users on the experimental Dev Channel now: a modified version of the taskbar with much-improved handling of app icon overflow when users have too many apps open at once. Click an ellipsis button on your taskbar, and a new icon overflow menu opens up, allowing you to interact with any of those extra icons the same way you would if they were sitting on the taskbar. This would be a big improvement over the current overflow behavior, which devotes one icon’s worth of space to show the icon for the app you last interacted with, leaving the rest inaccessible. That icon will continue to appear on the taskbar alongside the new ellipsis icon. Microsoft says that app icons in the overflow area will be able to show jump lists and other customizable shortcuts the same as any other app icon in the taskbar. Nice little change, but it seems rather telling that they only got to this now.

In this article, we are going to see how the Local PHP Security Checker library will make people’s lives easier during the development & code review process. To make developer life easier, developers look for tools or libraries which can automated security review. Here comes the Local PHP Security Checker library, which checks for any known vulnerabilities in the package dependencies. Th

This is to announce datamash-1.8, a new release.

Datamash is a command-line program which performs basic numeric, textual and

statistical operations on input textual data.

NEWS

• Noteworthy changes in release 1.8 (2022-07-23) [stable]

• • Changes in Behavior

  Schedule -f/–full combined with non-linewise operations for deprecation.

  In a future release, -f/–full will only be usable with operations where

  it makes sense. For now, we print a warning to stderr when -f/–full is

  used with non-linewise operations, and such usage will no longer be

  supported.

  The bin operation now uses more intuitive bins. Previously, a command

  such as `datamash bin 1 <<< -0` would output -100; and -100 did not fall

  in its own bin. We now require all bins to take the form `[nx,(n+1)x)`

  with integer n and bin width x. We discard the sign on -0 and gate such

  inputs into the [0,x) bin.

  Operations taking more than one argument now provide more complete output

  with –header-out. Previously, an operation such as `pcov x:y` would

  produce an output header like `pcov(y)`, discarding the `x`. The new

  behavior will output header `pcov(x,y)`.

  datamash(1) no longer ignores –output-delimiter with the rmdup operation.

• • New Features

  New datamash option –sort-cmd argument to specify the program used

  by the -s option to sort input, plus enhancements to the security and

  portability of building sort command lines.

  New datamash option -c/–collapse-delimiter=X argument uses character

  X instead of comma between values in collapse and unique lists.

  New datamash operations: mean square (ms) and root mean square (rms).

  Decorate now supports sorting IP addresses of both versions 4 and 6

  together. IPv4 addresses are logically converted to IPv6 addresses,

  either as IPv4-Mapped (ipv6v4map) or IPv4-Compatible (ipv6v4comp)

  addresses.

  Add two command aliases:

    ‘echo’ may now be used instead of ‘cut’.

    ‘uniq’ may now be used instead of ‘unique’.

• • Improvements

  Updated the bash completion script to reflect recent additions.

• • Bug Fixes

  Datamash now passes the -z/–zero-terminated flag to the sort(1) child

  process when used with “–sort –zero-terminated”. Additionally,

  if the system’s sort(1) does not support -z, datamash reports the error

  and exits. Previously it would omit the “-z” when running sort(1),

  resulting in incorrect results.

  Documentation fixes and spelling corrections.

  Incorrect format in a decorate(1) error breaking compilation on some

  systems.

  datamash(1), decorate(1): Fix some minor memory leaks.

  datamash(1) no longer crashes when the unique or countunique operations

  are used with input data containing NUL bytes.  The problem was reported

  in https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-datamash/2020-11/msg00001.html

  by Catalin Patulea.

  datamash(1) no longer crashes when crosstab with –header-in is called

  by field name instead of index. I.e. `datamash –header-in ct x,y` now

  works as expected.

It’s nearly an year since the Wikimedia Foundation, through the Community Resources Team rolled out a new community funding strategy, which has been aimed at…

 

Imagine your website as a large library with lots of books on shelves. Of course, you, just like your staff and your visitors, will appreciate it if all the items are sorted in the most consistent way. 

In this idyllic picture, all books are situated on the right shelves and conveniently labeled, they are easy to find and manage, and different categories of users have access to certain archives. You might call this the “perfect order” and that’s what can be created on your website.
