What layout algorithm are you using for graphviz? sfdp is less computationally intensive than dot/neato/circo, and I would have thought it would be able to cope (assuming you have enough RAM/swap) - this gallery [1] uses graphviz to visualize networks from the University of Florida Sparse Matrix collection, the largest of which "have tens of millions of nodes and over a billion of edges".

Gephi and Cytoscape are the main free graphical applications for analyzing networks; they might work for you.

If you meant to imply that this is not a problem because there are other languages one can use, I disagree. C holds a unique position in the computing world. There is an enormous corpus of C source code out there, and more is being written all the time notwithstanding that C as currently specified in not a sane language. So what C compilers do matters whether you like it or not.

I'm not sure where this got off the track, but is anyone trying to convince the general public to use org? ox-hugo is an org package and org is centrally dependent on emacs. If you use emacs org, this is useful, if you don't it's probably not.

But if you do use emacs and org, there's absolutely no question that org is more readable than markdown. It's a bit like comparing Word to plaintext, they are just not the same tool.

EDIT: I guess the article could be interpreted as convincing you to switch to org so that's probably what you mean, but I sort of read it as "if you use emacs, org is better than markdown", which I can't really argue with. But if emacs is a non-starter for some people, I find pandoc is very useful for moving documents back and forth.
The key point is that the 'Dutch reach' is supposedly a specific technique (opening the door with the 'wrong' hand) that we teach, which prevents accidents.

But in reality this doesn't exist. No one uses it. We all learn to just look, and not through some trick. And we have other reasons (e.g. better street design) so our country is more cyclist friendly, but those are ignored in lieu of some silly trick that doesn't exist and isn't needed.
That's false. There are several daemon managers designed to run as PID 1,

One of the lessons is to move early on new platforms, it's much easier to sell an app in a store with hundreds items than millions and when rank is influenced by sales those early sales really add up. Some of the earliest apps I bought are still listed as top paid apps.

The challenge is choosing the right next platform to bet development resources on... Any recommendations?
The main thing I see is complete ignorance about distributed systems, currency, business, etc.

Funny enough, last year I went to a conference in NYC where people talked about using blockchains to do "back-office" functionality in financial services. For instance, if you own 45 shares in Caterpillar, somewhere they keep track of how many you own, where to send the dividends, what to do in case of splits, mergers, etc.

Existing solutions are not so satisfactory, also it is a good fit for blockchains because it is a pure ledger without any need for money to be in two different places at once (as does any kind of debt instrument)

Today the ICO is all the rage because it can easily keep track of the fact that you own 31 shares of this or that. It doesn't guarantee that those 31 shares are worth anything, but it does keep track of it.

What amazes me is that there is so little interest in small permissioned blockchains. I mean, really, if I just want to lend books between me and 10 friends, why do I want to get thousands of computers on the Ethereum network working on it when we could just run our own small blockchain?

This is the way of the future for flat cities in temperate climates where most people can cycle. But Holland is an extreme case where disciplined drivers are educated to respect cyclists.

I don’t think it’s super fair to say that attempting to use features for one of its intended use-cases is using it wrong.

I have also noticed that restaurants will almost always include their own menu with direct ordering information, so I’m not sure restaurants are super into the idea of shifting existing customers to another platform - not that this invalidates the use case at all, to be fair.

Yes it was like that originally. In densely populated, high-end parts of major cities, it generally still is like that (as mentioned in another comment of mine).

There has also been a recent major push by both Deliveroo and Uber Eats to onboard major nationwide chains, which don’t tend to maintain particularly good quality standards via delivery unfortunately. Some exceptions to this, but generally fast food translates to delivery services very poorly.
The live environment is the page. You can tweak any CSS value and have it update live, or save to a file. You can run breakpoints to examine code execution, examine call stacks and use the console for input and output.

It's really no different from developing in IntelliJ or similar. The only difference is you don't need to hit "compile" first.
I've dealt with those shortcomings in the following ways:

- exporting: some lisp magic can help you here, such as automatically assigning custom properties to drawers. This isn't everyone's cup of tea, but it has helped quite a bit for me.

- pandoc supports org, which makes it trivial for my usecase. It may not be for everyone, but pandoc is very powerful.

- Have to agree with you here. I like orgzly, but it has its shortcomings. It is nice to be able to use a plaintext editor in a pinch, however. I don't have that option with most other tools.
Take this advice on the "Live. Live well." But don't take the advice to focus on smoking weed or on drinking beer or recklessly driving a car, at least not only from a self-described doper. Living has consequences.

The fact that you are asking the question tells me you are on the right path. Keep learning and honing your skills. If college is in your path, use it to get better at fundamentals.

Don't just code. Learn the fundamentals of software engineering.
The other day I was behind a cyclist who evidently cycled a lot, as he had on a racing outfit. He was in the bike lane, and the road was 35 mph speed limit, and downhill.

Except he'd often ride on the line separating the bike lane from the car lane, and would randomly drift into the car lane and back in the bike lane.

Then he decided to draft behind a truck that no way could see he was there.

I stayed a couple hundred feet behind this clown until he turned off onto another street. I don't know how he had survived so long (he was middle aged).
It will be included in all versions of GitLab. In fact it is already as alpha in the but you need to modify a cookie to activate it. It still needs a ton of work.

I prefer every other OSes remote desktop, because I can detach and reattach them in different computers.

Rightly or wrongly, modern GUIs tend to be sufficiently graphical that X turns into effectively sending bitmaps anyway, so in my experience a lightly compressed VNC is more responsive.

It is nice that in X individual windows can live independently, but adding that to your windowing manager feels like less work, and is how for example windows works nowadays (don't know other windowing systems well enough).

I don't know the details of LANL or any other nuclear related organizations, but I am a NASA contractor. We have contractors and civil servants working side by side on the same research projects. The primary reason contractors are used at NASA is that their employment is always directly tied to a specific project, and they will be out of a job if that project ends. That isn't the case for a civil servant, who basically has a job for life once hired. We aren't exactly temps, but we are very much at risk of being fired any time budgets are cut or reorganized.

Mostly Python. Django for web app and rest API. The Falcon micro-framework for telemetry collection API.

Alerting rules are handled by a Python daemon that processes the event stream.

Healthchecks are dispatched by coordinators to Lambda workers in a half dozen regions around the world. We started using Lambda before the launch of great frameworks like Serverless so we had to roll our own lambda deployment tooling with Fabric and Boto.

The only non shell tools I use are browsers and Steam, the latter one painfully mostly on Windows.

Otherwise I mostly program, admin or devops around. Bash, git, vim, grep, awk, tmux, ssh are the tools I use most. Nowadays also a quite a lot of Ansible. But don't like it as much.

You know, I spent nearly 10 years really learning all that stuff with the intention to use it the rest of my life. And to this point it seems to work out quite well. So no reason to learn other tools like Emacs, which would take up another few years to learn. Once you have a basic set of tools down it's more important to use it for value production.

When I'm on the freeway in the carpool lane which is flowing well, and the rest of the lanes are clogged and moving slowly, I slow down, too, as someone might suddenly pull into the carpool lane from the clogged lane. I have the right of way, but I'd prefer not to rear end anyone with at 50 mph difference in speed.

The same when biking past a row of stopped cars. Slow down, as one might open their door. It's just self-preservation.

You're Not a Country, Africa by Pius Adesanmi
I wonder if that quote by Baudrillard is an endorsement or a very opaque dismissal. To me it sounds ambiguous. Having slogged through the text I’ve always felt that The Matrix is not so much inspired the actual arguments enshrined within Simulacra and Simulation as much as by what one might reasonably expect the book will argue judging by the title alone.
I think the best article on this is Mark Solms 2000 "Dreaming and REM sleep are controlled by different brain mechanisms"[0]. Solms and a couple of coauthors have an article this year, "Dreaming in Neurological Disorders"[1], which is also great although I don't think it directly answers your question.

My sense is that it is still being debated if there are differences in the types of dreams that happen in different stages or not. I couldn't find it last time I looked, but some research somewhat recently found that medically extinguishing REM sleep did not produce a detectable change in dream reports. Other studies seem to show that there may be differences.

I don't get the hype around Prometheus.

What makes its pull-based mechanism superior to push-based ones like statsd?

And using exporters sounds clunky - instead of directly querying a metric and sending it to your metrics collector, you have an intermediate component which exposes them for collection.

But it is a distinct city. With a separate mayor, a separate budget, and so separate issues that it has to deal with due to its budget shortfalls. Including issues with the City of Detroit being one of its creditors, due to unpaid water bills.

It is not uncommon for there to be cities or towns in the metro area of other cities that are independent. For instance, Cambridge is different than Boston; or for an even closer example, Brookline which is surrounded on three sides by Boston is independent from Boston. Or Oakland is not San Francisco, nor is Almeda Oakland.

Or for other examples of being completely surrounded, the Vatican is not Rome. Monaco is not France.

The "technical boundary" is not irrelevant here. We're talking about different jurisdictions, with different governments, and an article about how one government is failing to provide some basic services is distinct from another government that is close by but has very different issues due to the differences of scale and available tax base.

> with fields in between them, as opposed to a continuous metropolitan area.

But that's not how cities work. It is very common for two cities to be part of one continuous metropolitan area, and the only way you notice the boundary is by paying very close attention to signs as you pass them.

> My question is whether there might be some political context to the way this article is written. Do you know of any?

I think that the context for this article is just that it's an interesting phenomenon; this small city, which grew very fast during the auto boom and has been fading slowly ever since, and now the government is so cash-strapped that it doesn't even have the personnel to work with independent non-profits to do things as basic as keeping the streetlights on, but also due to the small scale it's possible for individuals and neighborhood organizations to provide some of their own services that the city can't.

The issue of "the government barely exists", as expressed in the title, is not true of Detroit as a whole. While the Detroit government does have issues of being short on funds, it is large enough that there is a recognizable government that is able to do things. But for this small city, which grew very quickly and then has slowly been fading away, the size and scale make it very hard to have a functioning government that can reasonably govern.

And while the state and the federal government obviously do exist, for many of the things that ail Highland Park, the state and federal government generally work by providing grants to cities and towns, but being as cash strapped and small as this city is, it's hard for it to take advantage of programs that could bring in more revenue.
And what would be a better alternative available outside of Google?
It can be used and read in any text editor. Org is powerful, but it's more like Word than it is like notepad. It automatically formats tables, automatically copies and makes links internally, automatically indents, highlights code snippets, etc. And that's not even getting into further functions you can build with emacs lisp.

But it is centrally dependent on emacs for that power. Markdown and asciidoc work in anything.

This is also an important example of how limiting an anti-social attitude can be when trying to collaborate and have a large affect on the world.
