This has been posted many times to HN [0]. Is there something making it

I am sorry if you did interpret this as `trying to make fun of people` – This

I still would like to know why duplicate entries are welcomed/accepted on a

I don't see anything wrong with reposting perennially useful stuff at
reasonable intervals. Maybe twice in as many months is too much in general,
but it seems to have worked out all right.

These tasks are easy enough to do/code.

If you've ever looked at the way the NSA treats exploits, remote access
software and such, they're very careful about deploying them against people
who may be able to detect and analyze them themselves.

Putting such things in public code like that which would both directly po
