Dmiessler.com is shorter.. less to type in.. i like grep understanding more as a tagline than a URL.

Should’ve seen that coming. Inside the parens should be the word ‘knowledge’ in angle brackets.

The "wisdom > knowledge" is the rest of the Unix command - so it's "grep understanding wisdom > knowledge"

...looking for "understanding" in a file called "wisdom" and writing (over-writing!) a file called "knowledge"

I'd say that knowledge is a prereq for wisdom, though. Where can I file a bug report? (kidding)

I like the redundancy you have now. The ".com" kind of breaks the Unix-y part anyhow.

But if you're looking for alternatives... How about learn while(1); or push @understanding while ();

maybe drop the punctuation in that last one to really confuse people.

the “wisdom > knowledge” looks too much like an arrow as in “wisdom becomes knowledge” or some such thing when I know that your intent is “is greater than”. I’m not sure how to clarify that. Perhaps you should use some UNIX commands (use a | somehow). Don’t ask me … I’m still grading exams. :)

LOL

Nah, I appreciate the thoughts. I am going to keep both pointing to the site, actually. I'm just wondering if I should change all the WordPress stuff to orient around the new domain or keep it the same.

Anyway, thanks for the thoughts. :)

Both - they virtual hosts anyhow, right? 'grepunderstanding' is easier to remember. For me. I'm new here...

But certainly keep the one that's your name!

Maybe I should go back to lurking, instead of being actively unhelpful...
