Pretty much anyone running a website has probably used Filezilla or another FTP client (or at least SCP) to do virtually all of their file management. And it's for good reason; Those tools are made specifically for the job. However, there are situations when you need to edit or change files on your website "on the go" - where you don't have access to your FTP client. And in those situations, you might want an easy GUI web-based fallback. 

Shared hosting users have cPanel, which provides all of these tools built-in. VPS users don't have these tools by default. I personally use Tiny File Manager to handle this, and it's a surprisingly simple flat-file script that is very elegant and streamlined. It can do everything that the standard cPanel tools can, and it's been pretty stable and quite powerful at the same time.

Granted, it probably won't ever replace Filezilla/SCP as a daily driver, but it's certainly a worthy fallback for when you need a backup. It can definitely come in handy...

Because we talk about so many languages on here... why not one about one of my favorite languages, assembly, the bottom level language that machines use (well one step above 1/0 but still...).

when you master assembly you master any machine, without plugins, or compatibility libraries, or anything.

it's directly communicating with hardware and it works insanely fast.

So what experiences have you guys had with ASM code?

As a musician, I'm always practicing and trying to get the "perfect take" on anything I ever press the record button on. I've come to realize that my best take is usually my first (or maybe my second) take on anything I ever do. After that, it goes downhill. 

Practicing too much can be a detriment to the overall feel of the finished product. It sounds sterile, too rehearsed, and too precise. I've been running into this problem quite a bit as of late. I'll do several takes and they all sound so alike that it's hard to tell the difference. Even on vocals (where each take *should* be quite different in terms of its feel) they all have variations in little pitch imperfections, and even the transitions between notes and the enunciations are almost exactly alike. 

Perfect is the enemy of good, as they say. And it's very true in the form of anything creative. You try to make it so good that you lose sight of the little details that make it feel alive, less precise, or more human. Too much practice or thought stifles creativity. 

The same goes for writing, or for any art form. Your best work is almost always spontaneous, unrehearsed, unpracticed, out-of-the-blue. As soon as you try to recreate it, you lose the mindset that got you there to begin with. Always capture ideas when they hit you, because they might not come back quite the same way again.

Things have changed far more drastically than we ever imagined possible. In an era where we are more connected than ever, we feel more alone. And in a time where we ought to be less tribal and more united, we become even more tribal, more separated, and more angry at those who do not think as we do. 

That being said, it has huge advantages. In a global pandemic, we can stay in touch with people in ways that would have never been possible in 1918. We can stay connected with people who live across the world, and we can have conversations on this very forum itself, which would not have been possible 20 years ago (technically it was, but forums back then were nothing compared to what we see today). 

Never before, in the entire history of the world, have we been this inundated with technology at the rate for which we have developed it. We have access to almost all of the world's information at our fingertips. Even "secret" information is not-so-secret when it can be found, leaked, or hacked into. We simply have access to information at a rate we have never before seen. 

And all of that is to say that those of us alive today will change the world forever. We will see the world shift in unimagineable ways through the remainder of our lifetimes, and 20 years from now, the world will not be recognizable compared to what we see today. 

What do you expect for the future when the internet is among our hands?

I coulda swore we already had a topic about this here but I guess not.

Series is ending next week. Anyone else watch this show? I've been watching literally since it premiered in 2005.

TWELVE TIMES AS MUCH
Iran has far more uranium than allowed

According to information from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Iran is said to have many times the contractually permitted amount of enriched uranium. In the latest report on nuclear activities in the country, the agency expressed concern about developments. The nuclear deal is also in danger.


The International Atomic Energy Agency warns that Iran is far more

Nuclear deal on the brink
Since the US withdrew from the international nuclear agreement with Tehran in 2015, Iran has continued enriching uranium, the IAEA report said. The international agreement was concluded after years of negotiations with the five UN veto powers and Germany with Tehran.

If people are injured or killed in traffic, the person who caused them must be responsible. But who is guilty if an automatically driving car caused the accident? The traffic court day is looking for answers.

For automakers, designers and software programmers, things could become risky in the future. Because they may be held criminally responsible if automatically driving vehicles cause an accident with injuries. Because there is currently no concrete legal framework, the 57th German Traffic Court Conference (VGT) in Goslar deals with the issue.

For the experts, one thing is clear: drivers must not be held accountable if there is a crash in autonomous driving. According to the German Road Safety Council, they only have to bear criminal responsibility if they can control the automated system.

Automobile clubs demand clarity for vehicle drivers
The ADAC sees it similarly: Vehicle drivers should only be prosecuted if they have driven the vehicle themselves and have not followed the system's request to take control in time, says a spokesman.

There is curfew from 8 p.m., but not for Ben and me :-), he has a special permit and can always go out! Today we went on an evening tour to the wind turbines in the mountains :-), haha ha, his face at the last photo, the lightning blinded him

A good article !!!

All Europeans hope that Trump will be voted out of office. But will Biden bring peace? In foreign policy he advocates military strength.

It is understandable: Trump's egocentric and paranoid personality did not lead to any good expectation and so far has not brought anything good, unless it was to the advantage of the rich and super-rich. At least in Europe everyone is hoping that he will be voted out of office.

But what will Joe Biden, his rival candidate, bring if he is elected? Domestically, it is certainly more social and democratic - in every sense of the word. But foreign policy? Is there a point in his program that aims to create more peace in this world?

The internationally renowned US magazine "Foreign Affairs" has published three articles by Joe Biden on this topic:

Why America Must Lead Again
Rescuing U.S. Foreign Policy After Trump
By Joseph R. Biden, Jr.
March / April 2020

Anyone who takes the effort and reads these three articles can roughly imagine what is in store for us: more wars again, as in the days of Bush and Obama with his Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Biden relentlessly uses false information for his argumentation. In his article on the politics of the Kremlin, for example, he mentions more than once the Russian invasion of Georgia in the so-called Caucasus War in 2008. That was what the western newspapers said at the time. An official commission of inquiry on behalf of the EU under the direction of the Swiss diplomat Heidi Tagliavini has established after thorough clarification that the open war was not triggered by an invasion of Russian troops, but by an attack by Georgian troops. At the time, the Georgian government was probably hoping for an uncoordinated reaction from Russia because Putin was just at the opening of the Olympic Games in Beijing.

The often mentioned importance of NATO is also striking in Biden's arguments. Biden never mentions that NATO, with its eastward expansion, was itself the cause of a number of armed conflicts and created new uncertainties.

Biden always tries to legitimize his tough military stance by “promoting democracy” in other countries. In view of US foreign policy over the past few decades, this can only be understood as sheer cynicism. The US regime change policy that has been practiced for decades has nothing to do with promoting democracy. The counterexamples can no longer be counted even on ten fingers.

The Europeans hope - with good reason - that Trump will be voted out of office. But this deselection, if it takes place, will result in Joe Biden becoming US President. And Europe could have backed the wrong horse. The foreign policy of the military superpower USA only depends on the US domestic policy? A geopolitical tragedy! The November 3rd election is a choice between plague and cholera.

PS: Not everyone in the USA is blind either. Alan Robock, professor at Rutgers University, wrote an open letter to Joe Biden on the New Jersey platform (nj.com). “Dear President-elect Biden, please begin with the simplest problem that you can solve immediately. End the nuclear threat of war. "
