You misunderstand. I find that IDEs stand in my way and make me slower. They also make it harder to concentrate on the core of the problem. I am not declining to use them on principle. In fact, I try one from time to time when I learn something new (last one was the Python IDE), but so far I have always dropped them pretty soon because they were not very useful. The only thing I dropped really fast was that hacked-together atrocity Eclipse, when I found that a) it was hard to use my own text-editor and b) the IDE did not notice that I had changed a file. Really, who in their right mind forces developers to use one specific editor?

I agree. That said, and with all my not liking Powershell very much, it is a useful shell and it is vastly better than cmd.exe. If it gets more people to understand what the commandline is about, that is something. Might also make it a lot easier to get an MS admin to do at least some things on Linux and maybe even look at the native shells.

They will not get bash to work well under windows. The problem is the brain-dead and overcomplicated NTFS permission system. There is no way to get that handled without just as over-complicated and brain-dead "special" tools.

I am sorry, I have no idea what you are talking about. String parsing is bread&butter to any competent system administrator. Also, who puts spaces in their filenames?

That said,

      find /home/johndoe | md5sum

makes an MD5 hash of all the names found. Maybe you have no idea what you are talking about? In fact,

      find /home/johndoe -exec md5sum \{\} \;

works perfectly fine with spaces in filenames and does individual per-file MD5 hashes as it should.

As trolling goes this is pathetic. You are not even trying.

1. What is awkward with string parsing? Is this shell aimed at _incompetent_ people?
2. And that works how on Linux?
3. An IDE in a Shell? Is the syntax so bad that you need an IDE? Or is this another effect of being aimed at incompetents?
4. Aehm, know any mainstream modern shell that does _not_ have excellent documentation?
5. Seriously? I found the command syntax exceptionally awkward and badly thought out. I am back to a cygwin console for most things.

Indeed. When it gets complicated enough that an IDE is beneficial, I go Perl or Python. (And I still do not use an IDE for those. IDEs are crutches for beginners.) Shell is for simple-clear-fast(to do) only.

True. But most state secrets and most military secrets are secrets because they are so stupid that it would be terribly embarrassing if they became public knowledge. (We screwed up badly? Classify it!) The same principle seems to apply here.

Excellent explanation!

What I do not get is how they keep dress colors secret. I mean you wear it and peoples can see the color. Maybe these are not "real" secrets, but just thing people pretend are secret?

What I am getting from the videos is that this test was a success but that there was indeed an engine failure and the system recovered from it successfully by throttling off the opposing engine. There was less Delta-V than expected, max altitude was lower than expected, downrange was lower than expected, and that tumble after trunk jettison and during drogue deploy looked like it would have been uncomfortable for crew.

This is the second time that SpaceX has had an engine failure and recovered from it. They get points for not killing the theoretical crew either time. There will be work to do. It's to be expected, this is rocket science.

It sounds to me like the launch engineers were rattled by the short downrange and the launch director had to rein them in.

Specifically, I am referring to a return to federalism, with the vast majority of citizens' government coming from the state and local levels. You know, the way this system was intended to work.
