I'm not sure how i3-wm compares to Awesome-wm, but I think they're in the same category. I think they're called tags in awesome, and I have 9 per monitor. You assign a tag to a window with hotkeys and can specify the displayed tags with hotkeys.
On a single screen, my terminal is tag 3, browser is tag 1. If I need them side by side, I can show multiple tags at once. Otherwise, I switch between them with meta+1 or meta+3. Considering i3 is also tiling, it may have similar features, but I don't know. As to why this vs alt+tab; alt+tab is a cycle of what's open and needs recognition. meta+1 is my browser; meta+3 is my editor. If I have other windows open, they're not on those tags and don't matter in switching.
That will work fine if all the hostnames are on the same Fly site. It won't break down the road. :D
I played this on the mainframe in the early 90's while mounting tapes on the night shift. It was hard. I cheated. I looked at the source code for the key to get out of the twisty little maze. Wonderful stuff.
I tried justifying having more than one computer for a long time, and this is the best way to do it - one for work and one for personal use.

Every knockout is a concussion, and likely brain damage. It may be relatively safer than Boxing but you can't keep striking and knockouts and think it's too much better.
You're looking at the evolution of the sport because of the equipment. If the players didnt wear so much protective gear they wouldnt have to be so big and fast and powerful, as described a few comments above.

That said they cant all of a sudden change the gear but they can evolve the rules to adapt.
OT: Is AngelList still a thing? Anyone still using it?

Edit: Since this post got dovnvotes let me get my point clear. None of my friends ever raised funds via AngelList, they raised by approaching investors directly (they say raising via AngelList is super needy and bad for your reputation), AngelList's traffic is not growing anymore rather the opposite, their job section is quite popular among startups but again, does AngelList play nowadays a crucial role for fundraising? My feeling says not really but maybe I am wrong and you know and can tell us why people still should use AngelList.

1. Willingly plays 5 years in the league, makes $10,000,000, has 50% chance of reduced health in the future.

2. Willingly works 5 years in the factory, makes $10,000, has 50% chance of reduced health in the future.

Why does the first situation bother us so much more than the second? Most products we use are built via the second, but you're probably still using those products. The NFL seems like better employment than Foxconn, and I'll still use an Apple computer.

People make sacrifices all the time, if someone wants to willingly do it as a professional, why not?
?? No. It's due to lack of mass (for shielding and fuel). We produce lots of energy in orbit.
Fellow hockey fan here. Can you share some information about Hockey's concussion risks? I was not aware it is "dealing with similar controversies". There are certainly head injuries in Hockey, but I was not aware that people had the same life-altering issues brought on by years of head trauma from football.
Currently using two 19" 1366x768

2 1080p 22" would be nice.

Yeah try one of those big curved monitors haha.
> Wearing protective helmets just ups the ante as players launch into each other with full force.

Agreed, but funny thing is the protection has gradually developed over time to limit injury. American football used to be played with no protection, then with very limited protection, leather helmets, pads. Then hard helmets, armored pads. Etc.

Kind of an arms race, as with increased protection, the hits keep getting harder.

Unintended consequences of trying to reduce harm.
Hey now, I do "low-level" programming, and you can pry my extra monitors from my cold dead hands!

As much as I love printed materials for reference, unless it came that way, I'm not going to use a ream of my own printer paper for every reference manual or datasheet I have, when I could just have 1 monitor for coding and 1 with all my documentation readily available!
Had a final interview over Skype once (they were supposed to fly me out - but I guess decided to be cheap at the last minute) and then they he me to do white board coding exercises in a google doc. It was a really sucky way to do an interview.

Was so disappointing because I was really excited about the company until they made me do that.
Hockey has the advantage that the sport could we reworked into something less violent. Hockey could survive a change to the rules that would reduce blows to the head.

Football is such an intrinsically contact sport that I don't think a safer game would even be recognizable.

Actually, that might be worse... If hockey turns out to have as bad a concussion problem, the leadership of the sport is likely even more culpable because they had more options to fix the problem than football does.
While I might only need one window to code and test/run things (using command line and vim), I still have to communicate. Even if you want to use only one program, if you are on a team you still have to tab back and forth to handle communication with whatever client you use to chat/send email to each other. I'd guess even the most die hard of terminal-only programmers still have to use a second application to manage communication.

Let your daughter and her friend do the BS, they are probably doing it already anyway. That's sort of the point of the BS... :)

Otherwise taskrabbit or something similar would probably be the best bet, or just buy a bunch of TS music and stuff from her website.
It just depends on what you're doing. If I'm streaming on Twitch, I use one monitor for fullscreen gaming and use an additional monitor to check viewer chat.
Can you imagine what the world would be like if we had to remember a sale date for a specific airline flight? We'd probably all end up buying from scalpers, the airlines would get screwed out of lots of money, and we'd all be pissed that we'd be buying from greedy no-value middlemen. But from a qualitative and quantitative customer perspective, it probably wouldn't be much different from the way it is now with dynamic pricing...the only difference is the airline makes less money and the scalper would capture the difference.

Artists are the problem in this market. They should charge more (which eliminates the incentive to scalp), or play more shows (increasing the supply and lowering market prices) if they don't want to charge more.
Which is of course hilarious bullshit, since a tiny percentage of college players ever see dollar one of NFL money.

I agree that paying them would not make this right, but it'd be better than cynically killing them all at age 40, disabling their brains in their mid 20s if not earlier, and never paying them anything at all. Paying them their real market value would at least help.

I have recently considered the same switch. For me, the second screen is very often a source of distraction.
I already have the problem of not being able to do any work at home. Previously I attributed that to the use of my PC for entertainment. Perhaps this is also a factor.

I originally bought 2 screens for productivity reasons, now I find I am much more productive working on my laptop else were. There were certainly moments where it helped productivity, but maybe that is offset by the distraction.
Yes! Send us an email and we can help: support@fly.io
The confusing part for me is his continued involvement in a documentary that glorifies the sport. As far as abetting the brain injury entertainment industry, that participation seems little different from his former announcer participation.
Yep, he was one of the designers in the Modula-2+ and Modula-3 languages.
Interesting watching that video of rugby hits, noticing the legs.

Perhaps it's just selection, but I'm wondering if it is rules requiring tackling above the waist, but it seems like every hit on that vid caused no leg injury; no knees got bend backwards, or jammed sideways, and they seemed to invariably fall with bent knees (which is protective as the leg can rotate with the force rather than tear ligaments). The hands, however, seemed to be often at risk.

Is this the case? If so, was the rule ever changed for improved safety, or just ~always that way?
We both agree it's a wealth transfer and intended, so why do you object to the term bail out?

This is a wealth transfer to failing states to prevent complete collapse or an a massive exodus of the population.

Associated consts allows constants to be derived from our trait-constrained parametric polymorphism. C++ currently has no analog to this system (templates can be used, but don't provide a constraint system; concepts are not in C++17 afaik).

At an introductory level, like this announcement, we teach this system by analogy to OO, but its not OO in its core and snide comments like this only reveal the limits of your knowledge.
Oof. There are CFL players with day-jobs. These aren't NFL quadzillionaires.
I use one 27" 4K monitor at work, and one 38" 21:9 1600p monitor at home. I think I would prefer a 30" 4K monitor instead at home, as the screen is so wide it requires a head turn to see the edges.

I used to run three 30" 2560x1600 monitors, but that was just insane.
Does any body knows how to run a passive scan for networks in range from an app, even if the Wi-Fi is OFF?

I know this is possible for sure, the app "Wifi Analyzer" does it. As you can see on:

https://snag.gy/cfYTmy.jpg

The only network related permission this app requests is "Wi-Fi connection information" so I'm wondering how they do it, and if it is possible to do so from a background service. I will like to run scans periodically and show up a notification once a predefined network is in-range.
The issue with those studies is that they don't really account for more modern views about brain injuries. We know that boxers suffer "serious" head trauma more frequently but lots of modern research suggests small repeated head trauma is as dangerous.

Incidents of cte for instance in soccer maybe accounted for by heading drills. Which is why talks about concussions isn't enough.

I'd still expect MMA to be safer in this regard than boxing but there is enough head banging events in things like gaurd practice that don't occur during normal boxing practice that I wouldn't be shocked to learn MMA has as serious a problem with CTE as boxing.
To me this is still a solution in search for a problem.

Couldn't even imagine going back. There are so many times when I'm typing on one screen while looking at a different screen.
I'd work in an actual terminal (as in, not in a windowing system) if not for the browser.
Still, on 24" 1440p it makes no sense to have a full-screen terminal.
Finally, some good points.

> When it comes to dire situations, if my ISP does funny business, I can choose another ISP e.g. a mobile connection.

No, a mobile connection is hardly a replacement for a traditional internet connection. You can't host a site or connect to it with most devices, for example. And no, most people can't choose another ISP. Comcast will have run out all other competitors, or receive funding from the government to build their infrastructure and outlaw any other ISP's from providing service there (which happened in the outskirts of my hometown, despite us already having a much superior self-sufficient ISP with lower cost.)

> I didn't know it was that easy to do. Don't tell Comcast, please. They would be delighted to hear that terms of service is all it took to convince you to override NN.

Yes, their terms of service is all Comcast needs should there not be net neutrality. You are indeed renting it all from them. Net neutrality will stop them from doing what Google can already do.

I hardly doubt Google's account terminations has anywhere near the level of impact that the lack of net neutrality will have. Once again, you can host your site/media/email and manage your DNS elsewhere. The key to taking down Google's kingdom is to set up competition. Net neutrality will help with that.

And a sidepoint: You should always back up your videos/files/etc. Then if Youtube/etc is taken down somehow, or your account is terminated, you'll still be able to put it up elsewhere.
You're leaving out the fact that most of these players never get to the NFL, and they have a very high risk of brain injury, but they get paid $0.00, even though their work is generating billions for the NCAA, for ESPN, for basically every large university in the country, etc.

College football players need to be paid fair market value.
I don't watch football for three reasons:

1) The focus on "hitting" instead of proper tackling.

2) The encouragement of obesity for linemen.

3) It's morphed into some sort of live action video game with graphics and sound effects.

It used to be fun to watch, but now I just worry about the future of all the players and can't watch it.
Feynman would be happy that negative results like these are published!
Ditto, CMD+Click is borked (OSX, Firefox nightly)

While the rest functions very well, this is case-in-point ... it's difficult to re-invent app use cases that browser vendors generally take care of.

Edit: Printing is also borked it seems, whether or not that's a use case for your audience is another question.
> concepts are not in C++17 afaik

That's correct, though they have been added to the C++20 draft: http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2017/p073...
I don't know about that. He went to some pretty good schools and got some pretty advanced degrees.

The guy is obviously at genius levels because he is a really advanced programmer even though he didn't really get involved with it much later in his life.

I've been programming on and off my whole life, and I can barely understand 1/5 of the concepts he's talking about.

Reminds me of that scene from Silicon Valley "He's a 10x, and I am a 1x".

That's just some "god" given talents right there.

But yes, I generally agree success should not be predicated on what school you went to.
I'm on the same side as you about the fights. I'm just not a fan of the hypocrisy of letting people fight their anger away on national TV when someone doing the same in a public space would get arrested. I've played hockey, I get the whole aspect of being emotionally invested in the game, but I still don't think it's the right thing to do.

Otherwise, I always thought the concussion aspect was much less worst in the NHL than NFL, but maybe im wrong about that...
The research mentioned from 2007 fascinating. Ticketmaster auctioned off a limited number of prime seats. The authors showed that the auction price for these seats was equal to the secondary market "scalper" price for these seats. It's possible to have a hybrid where only the prime seats go to auction. Ticketmaster does this sometimes already by directly listing some seats on StubHub.
Rugby has the same problem with big hits and concussions occurring during them as American Football, but you are right in that it is illegal to block players without the ball in rugby and that is a pivotal part of American Football.

In fact the disease most discussed and studied has been Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy or CTE. The position most likely (nearly 50%) to be affected are the linemen[1], not the guys leveling or receiving the bone crushing hits, but the guys doing the hum drum blocking on every play.

The positions reporting the most concussions though are the guys who are doing the hitting and being hit, the guys with the ball and tackling him[2]. But these guys get the big hits rarely as players are subbed in and out and the ball is given to different players all the time. If they get a concussion it is obvious and are usually pulled from the game.

Linemen on the other hand, are consistently in every play, and are blocking on every single play. They may be getting minor concussions every play, but not something noticeable enough to be pulled from the game.

> Full-stack and front end developers can really improve productivity drastically and reduce ALT-TAB Keystrokes and back-and-forth scrolling when developing and testing web-pages, responsive sites as well as web applications that they use an IDE for.

Or by installing Hyperswitch, so you can switch between multiple open windows of the same app. Built-in alt-tab of OS X deserves to rot in a hellfire, same for the "multiple virtual desktops" crap which I have not found a way to completely disable in over two years.

And for getting multiple apps (e.g. iTerm with an editor) and a browser side by side on the same monitor, install SizeUp and split, rearrange and shift windows with a breeze.

That OS X does not come along with anything that resembles Alt-Tab, Windows+(arrow key) for window shifting or even fucking Windows+L for screen lock is... unbelievable.
Why wouldn't they be able to change the gear?
They started using that stuff because people were sustaining spectacular injuries (like cracking their heads open). I'm not sure it is so simple.
Fortunately you can skip this one by never signing in to Google maps, although you then lose the benefits of history.

Just checked and my location timeline is blank after several years of this.
I used multiple monitors for years but for the last year or so I've switched to a single 44" 4k TV as my monitor (at 4096x2160). I still use virtual desktops but they are for organizing sets of the work - one desktop for my current contracting work, one for personal projects, one for financial apps, etc. Once I get the windows setup on a desktop they rarely move.
> An unstable sort could provide this result, but could also give this answer too:

It might just be me, but using "this" twice in the same sentence to refer to two distinct items, one a prior example and one an upcoming example, is somewhat odd. That said, I understood it perfectly fine, it just caused me to stop and ponder the wording for a moment. The following might be more clear:

An unstable sort could provide that result, but could also give this answer too:
> If you threw the kind of punches people throw in boxing with MMA gloves on, you'd wreck your hands.

MMA fighters often wreck their hands during fights. They are in no way pulling their punches; they throw as hard as they can, just as boxers do.

I find it plausible that MMA fights tend to end with less concussions and serious head trauma than boxing. But I doubt it's significantly safer. That ignores training, where fighters spend much more time, and still receive many, many sub-concussive hits.

I have trained BJJ for over 13 years. During that time, I have also trained MMA. I have helped training partners for MMA matches. I have cornered training partners for MMA matches. I follow professional MMA. But I am finding myself more and more unable to justify even paying attention to it because of the evidence that even repeated sub-concussive hits cause brain damage.

I had dual monitors at the office and at home. For me it really depended on where my chair was. I have a slight bias toward the left monitor at home, so my primary activity goes there. At work, my chair was slightly biased towards the right monitor so I put primary activities there.

(I also experimented with vertical monitor at work, but with the provided monitors the viewing angle was too awful. I bet it would be awesome with the right screens though.)
Somehow I never experienced callback hell.

It always felt like every other code-nesting problem to me.

I mean, nobody talks about conditional hell, everyone acknowledges that you should flatten out your conditionals.
Grinding implies a certain amount of automation. Just invest time, get results. Puzzle games are frequently much more like step functions. Ex: You have a mirror to look around the corner, but it's too big to glue to a stick. So obviously you need to break it. There's 100 ways one could do that, but in the game it requires identifying the one pixel that represent a brick you can pick up and smash the mirror with. You can fool around and click on everything, but you also need to be really freaking meticulous or you'll miss a pixel.
In case of the i.MX6 SoC I do the training and calibration and the recommended register values obtained is provided to U-boot. So now when U-boot starts up it starts on the SoC inbuilt SRAM which is very less (a few kilobytes). Once the first stage U-boot is booted it sets up the memory controller registers and the boots using this RAM.

When the DDR/LPDDR training happens it is supposed to be left overnight for multiple iterations. Temperature also matters for proper values and hence one of the reasons the multiple iteration testing done overnight.

In my case I had some really incompetent board designers who were just blaming. Finally since there might have been layout issues I was forced to lower the clock speeds (halve the clocks) for the DDR interfacing.
As much as I loved playing football and now love watching, the risk/reward balance seems to be moving so much towards too much risk.

The backup plan for my five boys, for now, is to have them become really solid kickers so they can be part of the sport without having the risk of head, neck, knee, and other injuries I've had to deal with over the years.
