Wow, this is such a great idea! I wonder though how long it will take before the Freedom of the Press foundation will be labeled as a terrorist organization, or a tool of a foreign power, or something like that? Probably as soon as they archive something that turns out to be politically inconvenient for someone powerful.

JUMP bikes lock to something, it's the majority of other dockless providers(ofo, mobike, limebike, spin, etc) that lock their backwheel.

And in my experience 90% of those are in the form `FOO=bar command` which can be replaced with `env FOO=bar command` and works just fine in fish.
That's a great argument for fish.

Thank you for your work on fish. It’s simply awesome. I love that I have only needed minimal amounts of tweaking. So far my fish.config is ~7 lines in total.

Facebook's "X years ago today, you posted this ..." has been amazing

I can see your point but it isn't relevant to the article, and also, it is a matter of perspective. I managed to permanently disable it, after it kept popping up photos of my then-recently deceased spouse. Not something I was ready to deal with, and after switching it off, FB helpfully turned it back on for me. I eventually managed to disable it permanently, but if there is one thing I hate it is for some software to treat my instructions as suggestions.
In general you shouldn't trust Vice. They've had too many scandals and they've played up too much while pretending to be unbiased. There is a journalist named Daniel Voshart that's been covering their lies and distortions for years.
(author here) Hm I've tried fish, and it seems very nice for interactive use.

However I don't see it being used AT ALL for the cloud/linux use case? Those are the cases where you tend to get 1000+ lines of shell scripts.

For example, I mention Kubernetes/Docker/Chef, and I've never seen fish in that space.

I also don't know of any Linux distro that uses fish as their foundation -- they all appear to use a POSIX shell like bash/dash/busybox ash. fish is "on top".

See Success with Aboriginal, Alpine, and Debian http://www.oilshell.org/blog/2018/01/15.html -- these distros are built with thousands of lines of shell scripts.

Either 1) I don't know about such usage, 2) people don't know that fish can be used this way, or 3) there is some problem with using fish this way.

I link to this post in the FAQ, which I think is a lot closer to Oil:

https://ilya-sher.org/2017/07/07/why-next-generation-shell/

It's basically the "devops" use case. (And as I mention the main difference between Oil and NGS is that Oil is compatible / has an upgrade path from bash.)

This looks substantially better than Hubway (the Boston bike share). Currently you need to bring bikes from one dock to another dock, and as you would expect commuting completely breaks this model. All the bikes move towards employment centers, meaning docks get saturated and there is nowhere to park near offices, and it's also impossible to find a bike anywhere in outlying areas. This pattern reverses during the evening.
I checked out Oil previously which looks nice but more of an incremental improvement over Fish/ZSH rather than a significant evolution (it may have changed since then, this was last year).

Im most excited about Elvish shell and the language that's being developed around it. The shell is built with Go and feels super fast compared to my plugin-heavy ZSH. The language design is quite nice too but still very alpha. Looking forward to see what it evolves into...

Just curious, what should these people call themselves? Aren't there also plenty of people that start with these advantages and squander them? The self aspect has to come into play, is it simply we desire them to acknowledge their innate advantages?
I'm not sure why you reacted so strongly to what is a statement of hard truth. Whale meat was used for sustenance for a few decades following WW2, because that's all there was. With the availability of other meat, demand has fallen radically. It's not a hugely integral part of their culture, nobody is surviving off of it anymore, and it is in fact the case that most people, including Japanese, don't find it especially palatable.
Cambodia, former Yugoslavia, not to mention the Soviets. And that's just the beginning.

Well it has supports for JSX and decorators which AFAIK aren't in the spec yet. It also has a syntax for class mixins without actually doing any desugaring when the code is transpiled. So it's not quite just JS + types.
Twitter Now Says 1.4M People Interacted with Kremlin-Linked Trolls
The strongest point for TypeScript is its tooling and editor support that made it so easy use to use it in development. Even anyone writing JS in VSCode gets to use some checking from TS. But that bloat in the language and the amount of features added with every release is making me a lot worried.

ReasonML is great but it still so immature with little issues here and there that might be annoying to some people. I expect it to be a great alternative in the future but not now.

That's for example what makes something like Elm much better. How Elm dealt with the whole echosystem to make it use separate packaging system, not bad editors support (needs a lot of improvement for VSCode IMO) and the simplicity of the language made it a really powerful alternative that I'd use instead whenever possible.

I don't think he's trolling. Lyme disease is no joke, but contracting Lyme from a tick bite is rare:

While many people are concerned after being bitten by a tick, the risk of acquiring a tick-borne infection is quite low, even if the tick has been attached, fed, and is actually carrying an infectious agent. Ticks transmit infection only after they have attached and then taken a blood meal from their new host. A tick that has not attached (and therefore has not yet become engorged from its blood meal) has not passed any infection. Since the deer tick that transmits Lyme disease typically feeds for >36 hours before transmission of the spirochete, the risk of acquiring Lyme disease from an observed tick bite, for example, is only 1.2 to 1.4 percent, even in an area where the disease is common.
Personally I don't consider it either, it's humans pushing the edge of what is humanly possibly which is something we always do. It's what makes us unique.

That being said, static apnea is actually pretty safe, there is a spotter with the person the whole time. Competition free diving is fairly safe as well, as they have divers stationed at different depths who spot for black out and have spare air.

I don't freedive, but given that I am an avid spearfisher I do apnea training to hit deeper depths and to be able to hunt longer at depth. It is probably the most dangerous of any of the apnea related sports but still relatively safe if you do it correctly, which means having a inflatable buoyancy device, a knife and practicing one down 2 up where one diver goes down, another follows down half way a minute later and one stay at the surface as a spotter. Not only does this provide aid in the event of a blackout but it also provides spotters for sharks.

Another issue with safety is setting a reasonable limit, in static apnea in a pool I can hold for over 5 minutes, but when I am spearfishing I set my clock to 4 minutes, 3 if I am going to 100ft or deeper no matter what is going on, when the time runs out I am surface bound. Once trained it easy to ignore hypoxia and spend another 30 seconds chasing a fish but that can be the difference between life and death. The average human can hold enough oxygen in their lungs to stay conscious for over 6 minutes, the CO2 reflex is what get's them, so if one keeps their dive below 4 minutes as a safety margin the chances of black out are minimized significantly. It becomes dangerous and stupid when people start to throw away those safety mechanisms in a quest to cut corners and push further.

A good example is we where diving a wreck last summer, I was at about 70ft, my cousin was down to 45 2 minutes after I went down. I lined up on a huge Pompano and it started swimming away from me, I pursued for about 20 seconds and it had stopped and turned broadside to me, I needed to close 30 ft. to take the shot but I was already past the 4 minute mark by a few seconds. When you are in that situation it's easy to get tunnel vision on the goal and go for it, but then if the fish moves again you are in this game of just a few more seconds. Anyways, I broke off, flagged my cousin to descendand showed him where the fish was, I went up, took the spotter position, the spotter depended to 45 and I took the spotter position on the surface. My cousin ended up with a prize Pompano and bragging rights, but we all got to ride home on the boat and listen to him go on and on about lining up the shot, at that's the point with proper safety procedures everyone get's to enjoy the ride home.

Why do people care about "COMPATIBILITY" so much w.r.t. C compilers? It's so easy to use other compilers to build your program.

> CC=gcc make

And if your program is written with gcc in mind, put that in the Makefile:

> CC ?= gcc

And it will work perfectly fine on LLVM systems. As long as I have a gcc binary, why do I need COMPATIBILITY?

A big part of the long-term objectives of OSH is that it provides a way to move to a better language, without having to entirely rewrite your codebase. Think of it in a similar spot to C++ (originally); a big part of the design is that your old C (bash) code is already valid C++ (osh), and you can start using new C++ (osh) features wherever you see fit in the codebase, without having to rewrite anything first.
This looks really similar to tig (of which I'm a big fan and user). What are the main difference between these two tools?

We had trouble getting Xorg to reliably work for all customers on a live cd but after noting that the FreeBSD framebuffer always loaded and displayed info OK and could even support different resolutions we wrote a solution that would allow the frame buffer to serve as the x86/Xorg output device: https://github.com/neosmart/xf86-video-scfb

Now all X-enabled windowing toolkits can use the rock-solid framebuffer without modifications.

Linux's Xorg distribution already has a framebuffer driver for Xorg (or maybe even two different ones) that ships with it, but we didn’t have the same “works everywhere” experience we do with our custom solution (based off of netBSD’s previous work), perhaps due to framebuffer bugs on Linux or maybe something else entirely.

The drawback is that the higher the screen resolution (we weren’t happy with 800x600 due to LCD scaling blur from horrible on-controller scalers and instead decode edid data from the monitor/adapter to find the native resolution) the slower refreshes to the screen get. At high enough resolutions there is a clear order of 10-100ms delay in updates.

It's looking more and more unlikely every day. The Facebooks and Googles have such massive reach that they'll just buy whatever competitor threatens them. They and others have been doing it for years.
I'm sorry I believe my initial understanding was wrong. The time frame is still correct but I thought it was feeding but after you asked this it made me doubt myself and upon looking it up it's a different reason.

They feed immediately but it appears that it is contingent upon when the tick starts having to get rid of excess water. Until the blood meal has started to engorge the tick, though, the organisms are not activated in the tick's gut. So until you see that the tick has actually engorged a slight amount, it's apparently not enough for you to catch disease from the tick.

When I decided to learn Golang I picked up the "Introducing Go" book (https://www.amazon.com/dp/1491941952), which is a long tutorial with good exercises at the end of each chapter. It was what I was looking for, a long enough book to give me a taste of what the language is like so that I can decide whether to pick it up for a serious project or not.

Good luck!

> Shells like zsh and fish will never get mainstream adoption because they are not compatible with bash.

Zsh isn't a new kid on the block. Both it and bash are actually about the same age: 28 years:

The last time an OSH article was posted, the top comment was that someone should submit a patch to Bash that makes it refuse to work for scripts longer than 50 lines. It's a strong sentiment that keeps getting repeated (I don't agree wit it).
A little tangential, but I keep wondering if Apple is developing its own shell or will adopt one with a more liberal licence such as Oil or Fish.

I mean, they can't keep using Bash 3 forever, right? (Hope)
That you can't?
Similarly it is useful for TS to track the Stage 3 proposals of future features and offer them early, as JS users may pick those up with Babel or other polyfills. Typescript's own transpilation behavior of Stage 3 proposal can sometimes be a useful test for the feature while browsers work on their own implementations.
I'm a back-end developer (Java, Scala, some Rails) and when I first heard developers were using Node+JavaScript as a server stack I thought they were nuts to use a dynamic scripting language for enterprise software. TypeScript has a chance to turn that around, though, and might be the future: a mostly-typed language that also has the flexibility to be dynamic when called for.

I really like TypeScript and it has ushered me into the node environment.
But they'd need to also be read tea leaves and predict that there will be this job ad back in 2008, so they can spend 10 years fine tuning their career and tech choice of stacks to suit this ad, imposing CV-driven development as collateral damage at every company they have worked for.

If you hover over the button it will tell you what the shortcut is. But this is a weakness of the ribbon over the old menu system. In the old menu you were reminded of the shortcut every time you went to select something. In the ribbon you have to hunt them down.

You don't even need to run tslint as a separate process these days. tslint supports running as a TS plugin, and will report its errors and warnings directly in the TS compiler output.
I had a vivid taste of North Korea by radio about 20 years ago. I was driving to work and had a shortwave receiver in my car, and happened to tune in the English language broadcast from North Korea. The news announcer said:

Those were the exact words. It was one of those things that sticks in your brain and I remember it to this day.
