> The idea that we should then never use `python` to mean `python3` is just so backwards.

I did not present any such idea. I presented a sane migration path to where `python` means `python3`.

> ...it was then ratified as the correct way to do things because the upstream project agreed with the core idea.

No. It was because the upstream project had their hand forced and are pragmatic about these things.

> I don't really see why I should have to do this manually?

In my proposal for a sane migration path to the ideal? You wouldn't have to do it manually. The distribution would do it. As a user you'd be able to override it to speed up the migration for yourself if you chose; that's all.
This is so nice and so much easier than it seems. And there's no need for a private repo; unless you're ashamed of your dotfiles, you could keep them in a public repo.
Same here, technically I'd be an expat in the country I currently live and work. But technically, an "illegal immigrant" from Mexico in the US is also an expat.

So I'm an immigrant, and my grandparents were immigrants and refugees.

I've seen an awful lot of references to Eastern Europeans in short to medium-term stints in the UK as "migrant workers" and nearly as many characterisations of British retirees buying property in Spain as "expats"...

Whoa, that's almost double the estimated mortgage for the 5 bedroom houses with an acre of land my family has been looking at purchasing.

Two main differences for who comes from vim in my opinion:

1) Editing model based on (multiple) selections. Instead of moving around and issuing verbs on objects, as in vim, you are always selecting something and the command (delete, change, yank and so on) comes afterwards.

It may not seem very different from vim, but the huge advantage is the feedback that you get from the editor.

2) Scripting kakoune is totally different from scripting vim and somewhat harder.
If you need something in vim, you write your vim script and that's it.
You can't do this in kakoune because the editor language is not a programming language, but only allows you to communicate with the system.

This is the reason why POSIX is a hard dependency, every script in kakoune usually relies on POSIX binutils to do things.

I've been learning to use UNIX more since I've started to use kakoune.
That's not always that helpful, because you often will want to cherry-pick from another branch than master. E.g. when cherry-picking a change from master into 9.6, 9.5, 9.4, 9.3, 9.2 it'll e.g. often be easier to cherry-pick from 9.3 into 9.2, rather than master into 9.2 (due to conflicts increasing the further back you go). Obviously you could do that manually or script it regardless. But the current heuristics have worked without problems for years, so there seems little reason to change things ;)
I agree. I also care more about access control than encryption. But if you obtain a kubelet's credentials, you can read all secrets. It would be nice if a kubelet's access was restricted to only what the kubelet needs to know. That would limit the impact of a node in a cluster being rooted.

That's a tough argument to make that SF beats SLC in net savings.

You should try living with your family in a house with a backyard, it's quite enjoyable and could be pretty cheap over time if you see any appreciation.

Secondly there are a lot more taxes on a lot more things in SF, are you factoring that in?

Also I'd bet you are worth more than 105k in SLC if you looked around longer.

I love SF and it's great to live there for many reasons, but I don't think "cheaper than utah" is one of them.

I don't, other than to say that experimentation is easy - I bought my ultrasonic off of eBay. (bigger is better), makes the device more useful.

I use small spice jars for making my batches, and woody things last longer than squishy ones. i.e. orange rind dried is lasts longer than orange rind fresh. However, fresh orange rind gives a different taste and is cool if you're doing a cocktail night, or something. You can do things that you can't do any other way like this.

Cloves, Sassafras root, ginger, juniper berries, rosemary, lavender, sage. All have great effect.

Also, Ultrasonic makes EXCELLENT sangria. This is the only way to do sangria, IMO.

You can either use bitters to add to sangria, or just put wine and other things directly into the ultrasonic and infuse that way. It works great with herbs. For fruits, you should really just use the juice or crush them with a mortar and pestle. Any fruit soaking in the sangria is purely for show. IMO, all sangria should have sage in it. Sassafras in small quantities makes cheap red wine taste about 2 shelves better. YMMV.

It's all about where you put the horizon in your short-term thinking. It's sort of like refusing to have your army defend against an invasion because some of your soldiers may die, when you're pretty sure the invaders are going to kill more people than that anyway if not stopped.

If Tesla's management really believes they are changing the world and having a non-negligible impact, then they might easily justify to themselves that while they aren't the most benevolent of employers, they make up for it with what they do. The problem is that a) people may not even agree their goal is beneficial, or b) accepting the prior as true may not agree the degree to which their actions are beneficial in the end, or c) accepting both the prior as true may not care because those actions may disproportionately affect the person in question.

In any case, I don't think it's as simple as you make it out to be.
I used to use MongoDB (and I actually like it, unfortunately), however the problems I had with it (that are also problems mentioned in the article) are exactly what caused me to build an alternative.

Some people may think a "NIH" mentality is the "mature" route, but there are legitimate problems that exist that even billionaires can recognize (mentioning them gives credence to that fact). Those are also the same problems that governments face, which is why we (and other new databases that try) provide a solution.

Open Source software is testable, angry mobs won't be angry if you can prove a system works. Which, if you want, here are some examples: A prototype of ours scaling to 100M+ writes for $10/day ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_WqBuEA7s8 ), recovering from complete server failure and loss ( https://youtu.be/-i-11T5ZI9o ), managing live migrations with auto fail over ( https://youtu.be/-FN_J3etdvY ).

I'm sorry it sounded immature, and I also hope you can see the legitimacy of my question given my experience with MongoDB.

Speaking of fake news, the video repeats the claim from the time of the Iran-Iraq war that Iran sent 95,000 schoolchildren to walk over minefields and detonate mines with their bodies.

Given that Iranians are human beings and therefore, evil Islamists or not, must have similar emotions towards their offspring as other human beings, I find that claim about as believable as the stories of German soldiers eating babies in WWI [1] which is to say, not at all.

Unfortunately after hearing that I find it very hard to believe anything else in that video.

Zenefits is handling my COBRA stuff while I'm between gigs. It was a disaster and they don't even have a phone number to call. I had to work some serious back channels to get them to fix the problem. They mainly just blamed it on the insurance company, but I am skeptical since I was able to call the insurance company and talk to live humans who insisted that the information was just never sent over to them.

Beyond that, Zenefits requires automatic withdrawals from your checking account, a practice I am strongly opposed to.

> The vast majority of enterprise software is written in .NET and the MS stack runs millions of businesses.

What data are you basing this statement on? I'm genuinely curious because the vast majority of indicators I've seen clearly show that Java is by far the #1 enterprise language. Greenfield projects are probably far more likely to choose .Net but for now, there is a hell of a lot more important legacy Java code that will never be practical to port.

I believe that C#/F# are the future of managed enterprise languages (Roslyn, CoreCLR/FX, and quite soon RyuJIT are far superior to Java equivalents, imo) but I highly doubt their adoption is anywhere near Java.

> In case of GPL, you merely sell support licenses.

This really isn't an option for a lot of things, and gives you some really perverse incentives to make things complex enough that they need support. Who's going to buy support licenses for /bin/ls, or most of coreutils, or most of libc?

You'll get people buying support licenses for MySQL and other difficult to configure & operate codebases, but not for the vast majority of code they use on their systems.

I work for a big company that runs a shit-ton of open source, we sponsor the two/three biggest projects we use, but by volume it's 0.1% of the total number of open source projects we use, at best.

I do believe you, but can your share some more hard facts?

I've changed the passage to "one of the greatest". As in the disclaimer above the article, I'm mainly presenting assertions by Parse engineers, who were very sure about being the largest MongoDB user in terms of cluster size.
The question is more, what do you want as result? Suppose you search in your 8TB database of molecules the 1000 molecules most similar to a given one, you have 16 cores, you cut the 8TB in 500GB skunks, preload continuously 1GB of molecules per core and accumulate 16*1000 molecules and merge at the end. You can do it on a single system and you work with a TB size dataset.

It means that the size of the dataset is not the only factor, you need to take into account the operations performed on each "element/document", the size of the intermediate datasets and the size of the final results and some more stuff (encoding, etc.).

Only now, with over 10 years of experience, am I drawing a median salary and that took going through a recruiter.

Not OP, but I live 1.5 hours away from my job in south bay. I can stomach it for now but the commute is slowly killing me. Working in the Bay is really about balancing your rent with your willingness to commute. You can have a short commute if you're willing to live really close to your job, but those places (SF and/or south bay) tend to be very pricey. Although, south bay (Palo Alto, Mountain View, Sunnyvale) is cheaper per sq ft. than SF since it's more suburban. It makes a lot of sense to get a job in south bay and get a house if you have a family. If you're younger and want to live somewhere more dense or cheaper, it's harder. If your job is in SF, you can live in Oakland/Berkeley (which is a good deal cheaper than SF), and as long as you and your job is near a BART station, your commute can be sub 30 minutes. Otherwise, you're out of luck, since it takes forever to get anywhere in the city by car/uber/bus. If your job is in south bay, the commute from Oakland/Berkeley is 1 hr+, approaching 2 hrs when traffic is really really bad. And you'll need a car or a corporate bus. You could also live in San Jose and take the train up, which is much faster, although I'm not so sure about the rent situation in San Jose. Last I checked, the rent was ~2.2-2.4k for a one-bedroom, which is actually about on par with both Oakland and south bay. Although for the same price in south bay or Fremont, you'll get more room, at the expense of living in a much more suburban area.
> We live in a 680 sq ft one-bedroom apartment in an older development ($2200/mo). We'll have to upgrade when my baby outgrows his large walk-in closet, but it fits our needs fine for now.

And there's the kicker. In SLC you could afford a real house for that much. It's good that you can save that much right now, though. Definitely going to pay off.

Did you report the possible side-effect? Depression doesn't seem to be recorded for Mucinex DM, so it might be worth flagging that up with your country's drug regulator, especially considering you know you weren't the only case.

It's my impression they really appreciate reports of unlisted side-effects: bug reports are great for software, but they're even more valuable when they can mean life or death - and when the affected systems are as complex & varied as the human body.

There are laws like this in places other than the US. They mostly make it so that companies hire full time employees at a much slower rate because they are afraid of the consequences of firing people. You end up with a two tier system of real employees and a sea of contractors.

Certainly, there is that drawback, but on the whole Europeans (myself included) will benefit. In terms of content Netflix has very little that is desired exclusively in certain countries; most of its backlog is English films and series, and sports is not Netflix' expertise.

For the customers this should be a welcome change; nothing is more annoying than a global digital services provider deciding for you that you cannot watch content X because you live in country Y. Let me choose if I want to watch Portuguese sitcoms instead of unilaterally deciding that all Dutch don't like those.

While I do like Netflix' globally available original material, I also want a legal way to enjoy the long tail of film/television content. This kind of legislature helps.

Well it might do a little something but in the grand scheme of things, in my opinion, professional of sorts, is that there are far too many variables in the Electric Guitar chain to ever really care too much about any one element. Collectively, yes, different aspects have flavors to add, such as type of wood, age, mass...but then there's all sorts of other aspects - set up height, string quality / material, type of pickups, winding of said pickups, type of amplifier, what effects pedals might be in the chain...so I don't feel like going beyond skepticism is necessarily worth the effort.

By comparison, I had a guitar teacher who would play his G&L Strat 5 days a week for lessons, and you could just see how he was working the fretboard and neck into the sweetest playing, conditioned piece of gear. He always had a line of people waiting to buy his guitar whenever he felt like he wanted a change. I can understand wanting a guitar that "broken in" but by comparison getting something artificially relic'd or aged doesn't seem appealing.
