After claiming his second stage victory of the 2020 Tour de France, praise continues to greet every effort from 21-year-old Tadej Pogacar from Slovenia. Despite competing at the event for the first time in his career, excellent performances have ensured that not only does he look certain to claim the youth title, he remains within touching distance of his compatriot Primoz Roglic, who maintains overall leadership of the General Classification after Stage 15. During what looks set to become a golden era for Slovenian professional cycling, both riders have excelled throughout the Tour this year. Although they represent different teams, with Roglic racing with Team Jumbo-Visma and Pogacar with UAE Team Emirates, their endurance and stamina have been unrivaled thus far. In reality, few eyebrows have been raised by how much the Slovenian duo have dominated the general classification. Pogacar was always tipped to perform well this year, given the young rider is highly regarded as … [Read more...] about Slovenia Duo Dominating at the 2020 Tour De France

If you use FileVault and QuickLook on a Mac you may want to know that the combination of the two may leak some sensitive information from encrypted volumes. Reader Jack R. sent in the following tip, explaining the situation further: When FileVault and QuickLook are used concurrently, information about what files are stored on the encrypted volume becomes available and completely unencrypted on your hard drive. This is due to QuickLook’s thumbnail caching that is stored within the /var/ directory. Run the following command to see the size of the QuickLook cache to demonstrate the potential: find /var/folders -name "*QuickLook*" -exec du -h {} \; 2>/dev/null The worst case scenario is the potential for exposing file names and even QuickLook thumbnails of documents and images. There’s also a sqlite file called index.sqlite within the /var/folders QuickLook cache directories that have a list of file names on the encrypted volumes. Whether or not this is a legitimate … [Read more...] about FileVault and QuickLook leak some information from encrypted volumes in Mac OS

The default behavior for most command line tools is to show sizes in bytes, for tiny text files that is fine but when you start working with larger items this becomes difficult to read and interpret. The solutions is fairly simple, pass a “human readable” flag with the command, which will convert bytes to a much more meaningful human readable format of kilobytes (kb) , megabytes (mb) , and gigabytes (gb). Show ls, df, du Command Size Results in Human Readable Format Generally, seeing things as human readable is just a matter of passing an -h flag along with the command. Three prominent examples are with ls, du, and df: ls -lh df -h du -h Read on for some specifics about each: ls – for the generic list command, you’ll need to attach -h to another flag, like -l: ls -lh df – displaying free disk space with df is infinitely more useful when viewed as human readable. While you can also use a lowercase -h the uppercase is even better on the … [Read more...] about See Sizes in Human Readable Format from the Command Line

Want to see the size of a directory from the command line? You may have noticed that using the traditional ls command to list the contents of a a directory won’t necessarily show the total size of a directory. Instead, to see what the disk usage is for a specific directory you’ll want to use the dedicated du command, which will display disk usage statistics for any path or directory specified. We’ll show you how to use this command. Getting the Size of a Directory via Command Line From the Terminal command line, issue the following syntax to see the size of a directory: du -sh /directory/path For example, to get the total size of the /Applications folder, you would issue the following command string: du -sh /Applications/ You can use this to calculate the size of any specified directory and to see the size of containing directories and files as well. The -s flag will insure that each specific entry is calculated, and the -h flag will make the output in … [Read more...] about How to Get the Size of a Directory from Command Line
