sudo VS please

It depends on whether sudo was compiled with --disable-env-reset or not, it's on by default[1].

Also some variables are inherited regardless (e.g. DISPLAY, TERM), and some useful ones (e.g. HOME) are initialized by sudo, but I can't tell where that's done.

Side note that I've always found interesting: sudo is almost entirely maintained by one dude: https://github.com/sudo-project/sudo/graphs/contributors

The n=2 case also occurs in the commit: https://github.com/sudo-project/sudo/commit/7873f8334c8d3103...

And indeed, the two values ate bitwise complements.

One feature they didn't mention they left out was the ability to run `make me a sandwich` (https://github.com/sudo-project/sudo/blob/main/Makefile.in#L...)

It's (kind of) back - https://github.com/sudo-project/sudo/commit/9757d29a24ac1872872cf09757b0439c54089707

Fun fact, the “incident will be reported” message was close to being removed from sudo recently: https://github.com/sudo-project/sudo/commit/6aa320c96a37613663e8de4c275bd6c490466b01

Someone already wrote a sudo clone in Rust and named it please: https://gitlab.com/edneville/please

Or please, like sudo, but not. Especially if you want something like nice cookies, you should always say "please".

please :)

Hey nice user name :) Looks like you're familiar with sudo, it is a bit self-promotional but I wrote an alternative to sudo that's now in some distros. It is over at please. Written in rust to avoid traditional c flaws. If you know regex, you'll probably like this.

I just use please, https://gitlab.com/edneville/please No need for an alias.

Saw your flair, pleaseedit.

Self promotion warning, I've been working on a sudo clone called please. Written in rust to avoid traditional c flaws. I suggest trying it out to get more diversity in the ecosystem. Or not, totally up to you.
