Imagine you do something important lik "apt upgrade" over #SSH. And a network disconnection occurs (local wifi crap)

How you do prevent to end in a bad situation ? (I don't know if APT install is resilient, imagine libc upgrade...)

I'm using tmux/screen but I see SSH has maybe builtin tools like ClientAliveInterval.

My complain with tmux is the terminal emulation is not as good as using ssh only. And the risk to let the session open with root access.

Any feedback?

My small contribution to the discussion on scientific ethics, by highlighting a typical case of citation bias. Here is the citation trajectory I retrieved for the Monroe et al. paper, despite multiple reanalyses revealing critical flaws. 😔

Feel free to be as depressed as I am right now! 😉

If you are starting to learn ants, this should be your first genus: Camponotus. They are found everywhere in the world, there are a lot of ecologically important species, and you'll always have a point of familiarity in any fauna.

The genus includes North America's common carpenter ants.
