The right way to override any highlighting if you don't want to edit the colorscheme file directly

The right way to override any highlighting if you don't want to edit the colorscheme file directly

Generalities first

Suppose you have weird taste and you absolutely want:

  • your visual selection to always have a green background and black foreground,
  • your active statusline to always have a white background and red foreground,
  • your very own deep blue background.

Linux kernel initialization, translated to bash
#!/boot/bzImage
# Linux kernel userspace initialization code, translated to bash
# (Minus floppy disk handling, because seriously, it's 2017.)
# Not 100% accurate, but gives you a good idea of how kernel init works
# GPLv2, Copyright 2017 Hector Martin <[email protected]>
# Based on Linux 4.10-rc2.
# Note: pretend chroot is a builtin and affects the current process
# Note: kernel actually uses major/minor device numbers instead of device name

What happens when you cancel a Jenkins job

When you cancel a Jenkins job

Unfinished draft; do not use until this notice is removed.

We were seeing some unexpected behavior in the processes that Jenkins launches when the Jenkins user clicks "cancel" on their job. Unexpected behaviors like:

  • apparently stale lockfiles and pidfiles
  • overlapping processes
  • jobs apparently ending without performing cleanup tasks
  • jobs continuing to run after being reported "aborted"
