But what is the outcome? In what way does this undo the damage? They submitted a letter of support, and I presume money, to Congress. A post on their web page does not take back any of that.
What's a better use of my time -- converting my 1000+ machines to another distro (which may turn out to be worse) or convincing Fedora not to make a stupid decision?
With bash putting a command in <() uses the output of the command as though it were a file. I use it to diff the output of two commands: diff <(command 1) <(command 2)
I've never used it, but I assume >() uses a command as though it were a writable file. So instead of history -a file writing to file, he does history -a >(logger) to write to the logger command. Seems pretty clever to me.
