I bought a MacBook because the terminal on Windows, including PuTTY, is just.. bad. It's my main environment, I want it to be top notch. I'm shocked I've yet to see something that feels like iTerm2 on Windows.
This - my brother lives in Tokyo and for a time lived on a street that had pylons running down the middle with a little park running underneath them - it was considered a pretty nice place to live due to the park and green space that it had - even though you were bang next to a pylon.
We are not in the same historical conditions. We have internet, darknet, social media, citizen journalists, cloud distribution... So maybe we don't need the traditional system. Maybe we need more people standing up against injustices, lack of accountability, and narcissits, something like #metoo.

If we need a more traditional system, then solutions to lower the %GDP of healthcare exists, as every other country in the G20 are at 12%, and kept their growth on par with inflation, unlike the US. Government spending on public safety is around 2%, on par with the rest of the G20. So fixing the former would definitely go a long way in raising the later, placing the US in a leadership position in term of fixing many other problems.

Somehow, as citizens, we need to find a way to incentivize our elected and unelected officials to do good, prioritize the majority of the population, and to take decisions that are sustainables. I don't really have a specific idea how to achieve that.

I would say that this should not be banned. Let all who profess these beliefs be out there in the open so that they are easier to find.
Dang, brings back amazing memories of seeing the Unix source listings on my office mate’s desk in the Aiken computer lab.

I think Harvard got the first official copy outside of Bell Labs in about 1973 or 4. Memory vague.

It was first used on an 11/45 to run the Intro to Programming course for the hoi polloi, running an interpreter for the PPL language, a local higher level language invented by Chuck Prenner as assisted by Al Spector, who was in my class and who ended up as IBM’s chief scientist of some stripe.

It was also used by Peter Langston to write one of the first (the first?) Empire games. It was so engrossed by that I think Peter and others eventually dropped out after getting lost in it.

There’s something very special about those early C listings. We already used Bliss-10 and -11 from CMU, but C was clearly a different take on low level systems programming.
Is anyone really using Terminal.app? Once I tried iTerm2 I never launched it again.

> There's also IPFS which is a network of static, hash-addressed content

There's means for dynamic content too: IPNS and Pubsub, the latter was on HN just 3 days ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15879752

> However, note that the official client comes with "blocklists" which may be used for censorship

There's no blocklists in any of the IPFS clients and libraries at the moment. However there are plans for opt-in, community-maintained blocklists that'll allow communities to govern what content they allow.
I've recently gotten a new laptop, and everything is supported out of the box in Debian. It has a 2160x1440 screen, and the hidpi support with gnome on Wayland is outstanding. I would say that the fonts and symbols look on par with the new MacBook pro (I was using my new computer side by side with a new model MacBook pro).

The Linux desktop has come a long way, even in just the last year or two. I know everyone always says that, so take it with a grain of salt, but I have never been happier with the state of the Linux desktop.

Yeah this is almost the same experience in India too. Specialists like orthopedics, ob-gyn, etc. are often walk-in or same day appointments, and finish everything for under $50-$100. The only drawback with the overall health system in India is that there is mind boggling inequality. Easy access to specialists is true in big cities in good neighborhoods, but hospitals and healthcare can truly be medieval in remote or poor villages.

I agree with you apart from one specific case (in fact two consecutive ones) - giving a birth. During pregnancy, many women face various hardships, birth can be traumatizing and first weeks & months can be exhausting.

Hence the 'blue balls' syndrome that I've seen among some of my friends - guys being crazy horny due to sex deprivation that lasts months, even years in some cases. One lady didn't recover at all and refuses any sex (something to pick up by psychologists/psychiatrists I presume).

In this case (and menstruation), life ain't fair to women, we guys have it way easier. But it is what it is
> There isn't really a private alternative because, in the UK, NHS GPs are the gatekeepers of everything.

I think this is slowly shifting. I have private medical cover via my employer and one of the things included in that is access to video chats with GPs via a mobile app - obviously they can't diagnose everything without being physically present, but they can do referrals for things where its obviously needed. There are a few services popping which offer this sort of thing for a one off fee for each appointment as well.
> Rust loves zero cost abstractions

C was also king of the zero cost abstractions.

> and isn't afraid to be complicated.

C sure is not afraid to be complicated. But at the time it was huge simplification. I'd say Rust's complexity is not there for it's own merit, but has huge advantages (though not that visible in a very small project).

> It gives the programmer as much power as possible.

C, C++, Rust are all in that corner.

Go obviously isn't.

Why? If you're on Windows and managing Windows, you just use WinRM for a PowerShell session. Even then, though, most of the tools support RPC so your tools already communicate with remote systems.

"No SSH" doesn't mean "no remote management capability." SSH hasn't been available because you don't need it unless you need to manage a Linux system or a network device. The only reason it's being introduced now is because people like to use git, and git fucking sucks if you're not in a POSIX environment.

Probably too few competition. I live in Germany and have not yet looked into this much, but I think Deutsche Telekom could be still a problem creating the majority of the infrastructure and offering usage for others probably only via higher fees. Similarly why there is no real competitor to Deutsche Bahn in the train sector.
Learning how to use the fundamental tools of your field is part of the job, whatever field you are in.

It is generous of you to help her with R (which is not used in all fields). Latex is mandatory for any scientist in STEM, she won't escape it. Moreover, Latex is not at all like programing, content and Latex instructions are mixed. It may help to think about it like an empowered HTML/CSS for scientific writing.

I think your idea is doomed for several reasons:

- Becoming an expert to the point you can sell your skills to scientists will take you a lot of time

- Money is going thin in labs, it is unlikely that anyone has a budget line for this kind of thing

- As a scientist, I would be very suspicious of someone contacting me for this kind of work. I would suspect an attempt to steal ideas and/or work.

- There are (were?) people in the labs to help scientists: research associate.

It's funny how much good press Simons gets and yet he is a notorious tax cheat. The Senate issued a report in 2014 about how his firm Rentech is a blatant tax fraud. Rentech also got IRA rules changed so employees could avoid more taxes.

Basically, the Senate report alleges that Rentech evaded leverage limits (6x capital) and used the balance sheet of their broker to operate basically as an unregulated market maker. So the two keys to Rentech's strategy were a) illegal levels of leverage and b) evading taxes on short term gains to the tune of $6 billion. Once you dial down the leverage and pay taxes, the alpha disappears. One firm rejected the scheme as illegal and the emails from that firm are in the report. The scheme uses the broker as an illegal front, which is what the firm lawyer immediately recognized.

Context is important here. Please see the previous post (above mine) referencing "what the people want" which I infer to be referencing the democratic concept of "majority rule" which we do not have in the US.

"It's not about what the people want, because the U.S. is no longer a democratic country." ... I feel that this statement is logically faulty unless the "democratic" portion implies a pure democracy.

In case of Germany the problem might be that they do not need to change much as everything is okayish. In Estonia they knew they had kind of nothing after the 90's and there was a real need to reinvent themselves.
Interesting. Personally, I find Windows quite unpleasant to use, even basic window management is a hassle (just an example: you have to target very small hit boxes for simple things like resizing and moving windows around, and default keyboard shortcuts are not configurable). As to fonts, many if not most custom fonts you see more and more on websites look quite odd, and sometimes simply bad with Windows' font hinting (I do agree the built-in fonts work nicely, but so do fonts on certain Linux systems as well, and have done so for at least a decade since Canonical merged certain patches to their Ubuntu's version of freetype).

Might it be that we tend to like what we're used to? When I jumped from WinXP to a Gnome2-desktop, I tried to make it a bit more like WinXP, even though these days I would probably want nothing of how WinXP desktop is laid about.

> Losing as the most popular OS has made Microsoft start doing some of the right things.

While Microsoft has started doing good things which I can agree on, when did they lose OS market share to the point of not being number one? If we're talking about Apple hardware outselling any one vendor, that's true, but there's volume. Also, one of the first things I did after getting my MacBook Pro (and others I know who don't want to leverage VMs/Parallels. I like Windows and OSX being separate from a context point of view) was dual boot Windows.
> impossibility to put an opening curly brace on its own line

I sincerely wish all languages with braces would have this feature! Even Javascript devs practically standardized in always putting braces at the end of the line. I prefer working with code that mixes tabs and spaces than with the old-ancient style of spoiling a nice and clean empty line with a brace (yeah, you can just leave a line empty if you want your code to look nicer and more separated).

Thank God I can do a lot of my work in Python and don't have to care about these things though. Would've been great if Go too borrowed the "indentation for code structure" amazing idea from Python ;)

I mean, really, even Lisps never put their parens at the beginning of otherwise empty lines...
Yes, and demonetized also de-indexes from search and hides the video unless directly shared.

AvE has been dealing with this very issue, where he'd upload a new vid, and within an hour, demonetized. It would within 1 day go unindexed. And for those who don't know, the first 48 hours is when most views come in. So, no ads = no money. He figured out if you make the video unindexed, then it would be demonet'ed. Then he would argue, and monet would be turned on. And then he'd make it public.

AvE got sick of that, and moved to Patreon, and then releases videos telling people to install Adblocks to stop youtube ads. (Pateron's had its own recent scandal https://blog.patreon.com/updating-patreons-fee-structure/ - Ive been seeing quite a few artists and customers move away from that platform. Where will they go? Who knows.. I digress.)

But to a larger point, storage space is near-zero cost. Bandwidth over a video that's unindexed is ~=0. And if unindexed stale video happens to go away, aww gee shucks. Google keeps the mindshare as being the only videosite in town, and starves any upstarts with their monopoly of videosite/ad/search proficiency.

Tl;Dr: Google is a very bad actor here.

Since when does Go compile faster than Java and C#?

When I hit Ctrl+S my binary is already on the disk, thanks to incremental compiler integration on the IDE.

Yeah, but doesn't Putty force you to use it's goofball ssh keys? With git bash you can use regular ssh keys. And, you can generate them the way you're used to (assuming you already use Linux). Idk, I think git bash works just fine in most cases.
I wouldn't describe client-server as p2p.

Opera created a peer-to-peer browser not long before going under, Unite IIRC. The browser was both a client and server, you had a virtual fridge to put messages and photos on, could open folders on your computer to any subset of your chosen peers, etc..

Google can. So that does not apply.

> You bring up Trump's Twitter suspension in the other subthread, but in that case the failure was transient, and the person responsible and their reasoning were quickly identified; YouTube has demonetized videos with little to no explanation or recourse.

There's no recourse or explanation because it is not youtube's business model regardless of what/who makes a decision to demonetize them. Adding arbitrary human behavior to those decisions only makes it worse.
