Self awareness has two parts;

- One's awareness of how they are perceived by other people.

- One's awareness of their own feelings and emotions, irrespective of other people.

Extroverts rank highly for the first point and poorly in the second point. For introverts it's the opposite.

I don't think it makes sense to discuss self awareness if you don't separate the two different types.

Eshell was only really useful for moving text between Emacs and external processes and in order to have a reasonably sensible shell on things like Windows 2000 boxes (it was never meant as a replacement for a system shell, but honestly, anything was good a replacement for cmd.exe). From the manual:

> Eshell is not a replacement for system shells such as bash or zsh. Use Eshell when you want to move text between Emacs and external processes; if you only want to pipe output from one external process to another (and then another, and so on), use a system shell, because Emacs's IO system is buffer oriented, not stream oriented, and is very inefficient at such tasks. If you want to write shell scripts in Eshell, don't; either write an elisp library or use a system shell.

So... there's a pretty tiny subset of people who need eshell, I guess. Most of the eshell users I know are either folks who got used to it from weird environments, or folks who just use emacs for everything so using it for their shell stuff, too, sort of makes sense.
It’s quadratic, not exponential. For N versions, you have prices:

N * (N + 1) / 2

It is likely that you could reduce to something approaching an upper bound of 2*N, as with version 8 out, you can drop support for a discounted upgrade from v2 to v4.

If you want to help him, there's something you can do: Try to practice with him those situations in which he struggles. Start with simple scenarios where you pretend to be someone else and give him feedback about what was weird, when you realized he was blocked, etc. All of this without criticizing or judging him. This way you create a safe environment for him to practice without feeling the pressure of a real conversation and with enough time to understand his own interactions and assimilate them.

Turning 40 in a year.

I love metal and going to symphonies and I really loved the SF symphony and Metallica.

I also love football, hockey, and F1, but I'm a very competitive guy and just love competition in general, like the Olympics etc. As I grew older I like these sports more as I discovered the coaching and game playing side of things. Seeing a team outplay a physically more talented team is gratifying or watching Ferarri/Redbull/anyone beat the superior silver arrows. The underdog stories are delightful to watch when they happen.

Doing rec sports, board games, video games, poker, laying down more mulch when helping a friend, growing better flowers, code golf, and obviously trying to build a better product than our competitors in software. If something can be measured or has a "finish line" I want to "win" it. When I am "defeated" I want to better myself for the next time.

I enjoy watching sports the same way I enjoy every tech talk by the almighty Carmack. Seeing someone at the top of their game has appeal to me

> Even on a very capable PC Sublime Text still runs circles around Code for raw performance.

If this were an issue in my day-to-day I wouldn't be recommending it. VS Code performance is fine, even when searching through large logfiles.

> on the other hand it does also feel like they just ripped off ST devs' work.

Are you comparing the products out of the box, or are you comparing Sublime with ton of extensions installed?

When I posted my first comment in this thread, the headline was that ligature support is finally stable. That wasn't even available in an unstable form until several months, maybe a year, after it was in VS Code.

VS Code comes with a built-in terminal, Sublime struggles to do this even with extensions.

VS Code has VCS support built-in, throw in Git Lens and Sublime plugins don't even come close.

Speaking of Git Lens, the Code Lens feature in general is really convenient for a surprising number of things. Chasing references is what it does by default but I really like having a little complexity indicator above functions.

VS Code has a builtin debugger with language plugins for all sorts of environments. One interface to learn, rather than jumping between them.

VS Code intellisense is far smarter in my experience than you can get in Sublime with any plugins. Bonus is that you get Emmet builtin, but that's available everywhere.

And don't forget that VS Code is where the language server protocol comes from, so new languages can support a variety of editors with a single server, often times written with the same codebase that compiles/interprets that language.

You can use whatever editor you want, it doesn't bother me. I like Sublime, I've purchased multiple personal licenses and don't regret the investment. But to say that VS Code is just a ripoff of Sublime is unreasonable.
Hmm, perhaps something like UCB1? The UCB (upper-confidence-bound) family of algorithms might be appropriate—it's not quite what you've described though.

They'll explore the arm with the highest potential payoff i.e. the highest upper-confidence-bound, which often is the arm you know the least about since they're roughly calculated as (average + confidence interval) and early on the confidence bound is large. This style of algorithm means you can add arms as you go through the experiment and they'll be explored/exploited in a reasonable way.

What you're describing sounds more like you're exploring a frontier and "discovering" new options along the way..?
I never consider VS Code a text editor but a lightweight IDE, and if they marketed it as such I think it would remove the "ew whys this taking so long" mentality.

As for IDEA, what OS / hardware do you use it from? Depending on that + how it's configured are all factors. I rarely get JetBrains IDE lockups anymore (on Linux) I only ever see lockups when I'm on Windows with ReSharper + VS 2017, and yes, they do SUCK.
I must confess based on the strength of the argument buruntsushi had with the Ripgrep comparison I switched from ag to rg and have not looked back. I was a daily ag user but I don’t need the advanced regex support and I do like the speed.
> the company switched to a $40 a year annual subscription, and as the dozens of angry reviews and comments illustrate, that price is vastly out of proportion from the cost of providing the software

As a software (SaaS) developer, I find this comment outright bizarre. I find it is hard to make a living with $50/month subscriptions, if you write niche software (and believe me, you DO write niche software, you are not Dropbox), much less support an entire company.

Have you actually done the numbers before writing that "price is vastly out of proportion"? Just take the total cost (roughly 2x salary) of several people, divide by that $40/year and see how many subscriptions you come up with. I'm getting ~25000 subscriptions for 5 employees, just to break even, and we haven't even touched the marketing required to get 25000 subscriptions.
You can try out the new Celeste Theme. I personally also like Espresso Soda and Katzenmilch for lightness.
There's also an XCodeish theme available or the Base16 ones are also great.
There are other software providers that charge annual subscription fees that will just stop support and upgrades when you decide to stop the subscription. They don't retard your licensed version down to a previous version. Some of them also allow you to buy a license for the current major version, with minor version updates for free, instead of going all in for a subscription. Heck, I spent 3 years getting free updates from one publisher. Having the choice of being able to buy outright or go on a subscription is, IMO, far better than subscription only models. I'm also pretty surprised that jetbrains took the decision to not only take away paid for updates, but not provide a rebate for people who don't want to continue with the subscription part way through. That just rubs me up the wrong way.
Syncthing is just a synchronization system, whereas Nextcloud is a whole platform that just happens to include sync. It is more like Google Drive as it has a web interface for accessing files and a bunch of other apps (similar to Google Docs) to interact with them. It is also centralized, whereas Syncthing is peer-to-peer
`cd` is not a command; it is built into your shell.

Some systems, like OS X and CentOS, map the cd man page to builtin which lists all the shell builtins and lets you know you should look at your shell's man page.

It's a Selection and its name is PRIMARY. Nothing is copied, that's the trick for the clipboard on every vaguely modern OS too. (In X11 the clipboard is a Selection named CLIPBOARD). Instead applications tell the system "I have the clipboard" (or in X, "I have this named selection") and when a paste operation happens the exact bits to be moved are figured out only then.

> Better that than not giving away a penny until you're 75, and then handing it all off to Gates when you're eventually dead.

Doesn't that depends on your rate of return? Imagine two options: (a) give away $1 million now; (b) invest the money and wait until you are 75, then give away $1 billion. Is option (a) necessarily better?
Absolutely not :) If you make it let me know I can share it on the website as well. You can find my e-mail on my profile.
Yes. There are fairly tight criteria on what are allowed, mind: manual opening short blades with no serations that don't lock open and (I think) don't have finger guards are ok. Most Swiss Army knives are fine, most Gerbers and Crkts aren't. Mora's and other fixed blades are right out.

Edit to add: I carry an Opinel no 8, which is technically illegal on two fronts, but would be utterly impractical as a weapon. I've only ever had one problem doing so: one got confiscated at security going on the Millennium Wheel about a decade ago, but there was no other comeback from that and they're dirt cheap, so I just bought another.

I believe it started out as an extension of BPF. The real term they mean to use (and most people mean to use, I think) is eBPF. Calling it eBPF makes a whole lot more sense to me because it's evolved a lot since it was just doing packet filtering. Also, it's Linux-only so again differentiating eBPF from BPF (which is not Linux-only) makes sense to me. But I didn't write the post.

> Judges specifically filter out for people who know about jury nullification.

I guess you mean subconsciously? Directly asking someone if they know about jury nullification, then rejecting them on whatever grounds would intuitively sound very fishy to me. Rejecting them explicitely for knowledge of jury nullification would sound to me like a direct attack on the jury system itself. And I don't know how to find out if someone knows about it without asking them... Then again, I'm not a lawyer.

From June till September last year(pre solar) my energy bill was near 200. My financing is about 70 dollars a month for the next 20 years... I'm expecting my solar production to cover probably 70% of my bill. Since I'm paying financing plus utility hookup(mandatory $10), plus what ever I use after solar; I will likely not recoup my investment. Imho, it's more feelgood and a hedge against future energy price increases.

I have also noticed that I pay attention more to my consumption. I've debated on buying an energy consumption device like sense, but it seems like a toy...

I see the appeal of road cycling and I investigated it (I'm in a bike-friendly city that hosts road cycling events) but feel put off by:

- Sharing roads with fast heavy vehicles at speed.

- Lycra.

- The expense. A good road bike seems to cost ~10× more than a great skateboard or longboard (but about the same as an electric longboard).

- Friends who've had big crashes on the road; intuitively it feels like it should be safer than mountain biking, but I'm not so sure.

Proof of 'Planet Nine' May Be Sewn into Medieval Tapestries
i can point you to the absense of literature talking about this lack of post-young-age friendships. For example, while the grecoroman philosophers and the stoics wrote extensively and in detail about friendship , they don't seem to mention any problems finding friends even though they were past their prime when they wrote their stuff. Society was also a lot more gender-segregated in the past, gender roles were separate, which means marriage did not disrupt the social life of men (primarily) as abruptly as it does now. I have no time to research the subject but it 's reasonable to assume that all that, combined with immobility and slower pace of life contributed to someone gaining more friends as time goes by instead of losing them.

Perhaps it would help your argument if you provided counterarguments to others instead of just dismissing them. Pretending to speak from authority weakens your position.

Frankly, I'd have expected better from the creator of sway. As someone who is not involved in either project, I see two active projects, which offers more choice to users, makes it less likely for both projects to go away, offer competition and all around be in the spirit of open-source.
