I don't know who that Azrael guy is, but he sounds really awesome.

What? You're sending the output of cat (which will default to STDIN unless I'm mistaken) to a black hole in your computer - and then sending that to Votick? I think you meant to leave out the first >, which would make it `cat /dev/null > Votick`, which, depending on where the newline is would either send null to Votick's ramblings file, or tell you that '> Votick' is the contents of /dev/null. Of course, `tail -c 1k /dev/random > Votick` would be much better.

the > was simply indicating the first line of input -_-
ie Votick
if you're reading from stdin then it doesn't matter where your newlines are, it just reades every line at a time - but you already know that :P

Code: Select all

#include <stdio>
using namespace std;

int main() {
  while(true) {
    cout << "You're a pair of geeks!";
  }
  return 0; // will never be called, but needed for the code to compile correctly :/
}
Oh, Super, you were sending Votick to /dev/null. Of course. I'm an idiot. But why not just `echo Votick > /dev/null`?
