What do you think of this Python project? It’s called aurman, and it’s used by Arch Linux users to pull in packages from Arch User Repository (AUR), the unofficial package repo for Arch. It works as a wrapper around pacman, the standard Arch package manager.
I think it already has some tests written for it, (possibly short of a full suite), so you’ll be able to contrast your tests with the existing ones as an exercise, but also provide more within the same framework.
The funny part of the original scene is that that is exactly what Morpheus himself does when Neo is outside the Matrix—tells him what the Matrix is.
This is one of a few different examples (in that film and the others) that give credence to reading Morpheus as less trustworthy than he is styled. He should maybe be doubted more often.
Never used it to write my code. Others have given great reasons, which resonate with me, but the biggest one for me is that I enjoy writing code and designing programs. Why would I outsource one of the things I love to do? It’s really that simple for me.
I’m sorry, but if you’re willing to give full access on your computer to a(n effectively) non-deterministic black box that is the cybersecurity equivalent of Swiss cheese, at this point in history, I’m afraid you deserve what’s coming your way. This lady should feel lucky that it only ran amok in her inbox.
Ah, I found the official answer to my question in the definitions (definition 9):
"OPERATING SYSTEM PROVIDER" MEANS A PERSON THAT DEVELOPS, LICENSES, OR CONTROLS THE OPERATING SYSTEM SOFTWARE ON A DEVICE.
This still leaves room for ambiguity, though, especially when it comes to Linux: is the OSP the person who installs the OS (e.g. a sysadmin)? They control the operating system on that device. Or are they the individual/organization that deems what software counts as a given operating system (e.g. Microsoft or Linus)? They develop and license the operating system that happens to be on a given device. Maybe it’s both, but the context suggests the latter more strongly to me.
It’s the same for me! I was starting to think I was the only one.
