With the greatest of respect, the way you casually drop technical terms out of context suggests to me that you really don't understand how terminals work in the slightest. (That and the new revelation that you're restoring your BBS snapshots in random orders yet expecting your terminal to be smart enough to guess where to resume). This is why I think we are having such a high degree of difficulty agreeing on your problem.

The reason I commented about hacking the BBS software is because that's the only way to solve the weird requirements you're asking. You can complain about my suggestion all you like but it's your unusual requirements that are at fault The fault here, not my solution.

Maybe you need to stop and think for a moment that perhaps what you're asking is silly rather than just assuming that everyone else on the internet is stupid.

The closest work around you're going to get (and is buildable with your experience) would be to build a terminal server (like a minimal Linux distribution running on a VM or Raspberry Pi) which you can SSH onto from Linux or Windows (eg via PuTTY) and which has a serial interface to your BBS software (be that virtualized or physical). Install 'tmux' or 'screen' onto the terminal server and when you SSH onto the terminal server reattach to your screen session. That screen session will be connected to your BBS and you'll then have your detachable but persistent terminal sessions.

Edit:
If your terminal server is a VM and the BBS software is a DOSbox instance running on the terminal server then you also only need to snapshot one host and have persistent scroll back PLUS the ability to restore from random snapshots. The only thing you would lose is your TCP/IP handshake to the xterm / PuTTY session but they're detachable anyway via tmux / screen so you'd just have to SSH back into the host and reattach to your multiplexer (screen / tmux).

Keep your eyes out for "Heirloom tomatoes" or my favorite, zebra-stripe tomatoes. They're a lot smaller, vary in color a lot. Pack a punch, I like to just snack on them whole.
If your code is reviewed by colleagues and if you review code of your colleagues, if you do some occasional pair programming you probably don't need to read books about programming. Concentrate on books that help you with things like estimations and communication, e.g. "The Clean Coder".

I suspect that the culture there has different norms regarding police censorship and control.

Australians see no problem with invasive police searches of cars and breathalyzers being administered without probable cause. Americans see no problem with a murder suspect's photo and name being broadcast on television, while the same act would horrify Dutch people.

Different cultures are different.
Great article. This is an important distinction to make. I've noticed that the more experienced I got, I felt less and less need to micro-optimize every aspect of a program at the expense of code readability. That's where I think the design and implementation of a system intersect; making it easy to understand how it works and giving future maintainers the confidence to make changes is best accomplished with clear and readable code with the right abstractions (even if it hurts performance a little). I think that documentation will always be second to that.
I have certainly tried, with quite a lot of effort, to get more resources. The company is going through a lot of change right now, so the request is a bit lost in the chaos. It's partially due to the change that workloads are so imbalanced- hoping for things to change. Also, everyone here is right too, I have been trying to change myself for a long time now. Getting better but it has been a difficult process.

The breeding of a bigger, rounder, more beautiful tomato has absolutely come at the cost of nutrition. See https://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/26/opinion/sunday/breeding-t... "Breeding the Nutrition Out of Our Food"

". The loss of these beneficial nutrients did not begin 50 or 100 years ago, as many assume. Unwittingly, we have been stripping phytonutrients from our diet since we stopped foraging for wild plants some 10,000 years ago and became farmers."

The rising CO2 doesn't help tho.
That's indeed weird. Please don't do that, GP!

I used to work at Publix. They don't hire pharmacists without degrees, as it requires a PharmD and being licensed with the state, however they do, very rarely, hire pharmacy technicians without any kind of degree and train them on the job. I have only seen this happen one time.

If anything, I wish it was more "negative" about India; instead of talking about why people take part in lynchings and why they are so common in the country, the blame goes to WhatsApp, which "has been getting Indians killed". It's as if the actual killers had no agency.

Same thing about the anti-vaccination groups in Brazil: as a Brazilian citizen my concern is that those groups exist at all and are affecting public health, not what app they happen to use.

You're right. I was good at that for a while, but eventually I started juggling so many different things that it became too time consuming to write it down. I also tried using timetracking, like ManicTime, and that was helpful for passive tracking.

Economy has nothing to do with national propaganda spreading xenophobia and calling all opposition - traitors. 3rd Reich had much better economy than Weimar Republic (if not very sustainable). Besides - Poland is one of the few countries in EU that haven't had budget surplus in last few years despite the economic boom in EU.

> the country is not pushing towards Russia

Look at any independent rating regarding media freedom, rule of law, tolerance. We are changing towards Russia.

> we've diversified trade and geopolitics

yeah, from being "friends" with EU and USA we changed to what exactly? China isn't our ally, we're doing business, like we did before. Meanwhile we're completely marginalized in EU, and have no bargaining power in relations with USA (which was pretty well showcased during that crisis with stupid Holocaust law). Even if PIS doesn't want us to exit EU - it constantly portraits EU as the worst threat to Poland. Such propaganda may easily end with Poland leaving EU - see Cameron debacle. PIS is feeding extreme right to marginalize liberal opposition, same as Fides did in Hungary with Jobbik. Then PIS remains the "lesser evil". This is a very risky strategy, and is already hurting Poland.

> there's plurality of voices in the media and it seems to be growing

https://freedomhouse.org/report/freedom-press/2017/poland

> Poland’s status declined from Free to Partly Free due to government intolerance toward independent or critical reporting, excessive political interference in the affairs of public media, and restrictions on speech regarding Polish history and identity, which have collectively contributed to increased self-censorship and polarization.

Government openly talks about nationalization of foreign owned media. That's the plurality you speak of?

> We've even managed to hold our own against EU's meddling in our internal politics, during recent changes to the judiciary

Or, if you aren't brainwashed - we managed to destroy independent judiciary and still remain in EU (for now). Great job.

> Oh, and we're one of the very few states in Europe that managed to weather the migrant crisis

The rest of the European countries seem to exist as well. Maybe try to travel more :)

> war refugees from our neighbor, the Ukraine

These are war refuges like the +- 2 000 000 of Poles in UK, Ireland, Germany are war refuges. So - not at all. They are economic migrants, and benefit Poland much more than we benefit them. Still a good thing, but changes nothing.

You cannot compel a platform to carry a message against its will. This is true.

Restricting the messages a platform may carry according to the state's view of merit or truth, on the other hand, is exactly "regulating speech."

EDIT: To be clear, I am responding in the context of the upthread "Blocking WhatsApp would be a perfectly justifiable solution! Regulating it would be as well." Your argument seems less puzzling in the context of the very different assertion that Whatsapp itself should exercise editorial control. Apologies if this is what you meant.
A node in Brisbane. I checked path, the AS path was pretty tight, china-telecom to telstra-reach and then into the IX where I have a FreeBSD host. I was testing web speeds to the company on non-SSH/SOCKS paths, they were pretty bad oddly, quite heavily asymmetric, via the US and Japan and in some cases Europe. China-Australia via Europe is not very optimal.

It has to be said if you're trying to bypass DPI, speed isn't your main concern. I tolerated pretty low packet rates. If I had to VOIP it would have been awful

It's not about acceptance of censorship. Even cultures that don't necessarily see it negatively (I'm from one myself) still exhibit this mode of thinking - i.e. yes, some things need to be censored, but when something that you believe in is being censored, that just proves that it's true (and important).

Ironically, I've started to worry less about being let go and that does embolden me to actually take some risks and say no. However, thus far, I earned the reputation of just not dropping the ball.

It was recommended to me before, to just let things fall as they may. That part is super difficult for me. I don't like to let things fail.

That said, your advice is an area I need to continue to work on for sure. Thank you for the suggestions.
Ok, I'm not sure what's going on here. That does sound like a lot of plant matter, but potatoes don't have much fiber or other low-caloric content; they're 3.7 kcal/g dry mass (going by the same Russet data point), compared with 4 kcal/g for pure starch. Is it really such a struggle to get enough calories (and protein) from something with 92% of the energy of pure carbohydrates? Do power athletes normally eat a very high fat diet to get enough calories?

In my own experience: I eat 3 meals, generally within an 8 hr window, and it's not unusual for me to cook myself a 1 lb bag of lentils as the major ingredient of any one of them. I don't weigh my prepared food, but comparing usda data for "lentils, raw" vs "lentils, boiled" I'm getting a factor of 3 mass difference for isocaloric quantities; I usually have 1.5-2 x 4 cup bowls of food per meal, which is consistent with the calorie-based estimate of their weight increase on cooking. (Sorry to mix imperial units into it, but I'm surrounded by them!) Translating to respectable units, that comes to over 4kg/day of plant matter. I'm apparently smaller than a female powerlifter and certainly get less exercise; the reason this is an equilibrium amount of food for me is I only eat every other day[1]. I don't have any trouble eating that much, though the quantity of food was daunting when I starting alternate day fasting a few years ago. So, I'm inclined to think that the answer is: what sounds like a huge amount of plants is actually a manageable amount of food once you get used to it; it is a lot of volume, but digestive tracts are adaptable and plants are mostly water.

Yes, the cloud version is a complete image (without the file names though) that should be eventually consistent.

And yes, performance is a disaster right now simply because the code is not optimized at all. But the sync to the cloud happens in the background so it should not affect your performance unless you have a "cache miss".

Animals are subhuman. We don't feel the urge to kill them for this reason. Slaves were certainly considered subhuman, and Europe was not on a mission to kill them all.

Wars might be caused by disputes about borders, or by greed. They don't require the elimination of the enemy, just its defeat.
But at least some of the better known genocides and mass murders are caused by the perception in the mind of the perpetrators that the very existence of the victims is an existential threat to them.
Constant anti-EU propaganda in public and PIS-related private media. Marginalization of liberal politicians and supporting far right movements to position PIS as the only mainstream party. Presenting western Europe as decadent, failing world Poland has to defend against.

I was actually thinking of doing this as a block device instead of a file system and I agree that it may be the more "natural" solution.

Through skimming some pages on the FDA website I see regulations based on preventing contamination to animal feed, and that the center for veterinary medicine supplies guidelines and recommendations, but can you point me to some regulation of what ranches are allowed to feed their cows? I'd be curious, I don't see any reason that cattle feed supplements couldn't toss in some insect protein powder, I'm sure the only reason they don't is there are cheaper sources like whey.
Then, can you please clarify for me the wording, "well-regulated militia"? Who does the regulation? How do you quantify "well-regulated" versus "poorly-regulated". Do you have to be part of a militia in order to obtain arms? Am I breaking the law by not being part of a militia while owning guns?

I didn't see a "reply" link below. This is a https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17949657 response.

I emulate lots of different things. I'll make up an extra-simple case to illustrate the problem.

The guest OS running in the emulator is just a bootable floppy image for testing. All it does is print a counter to the serial port, once per hour. Just after 3 hours it has written 0, 1, 2, 3. At this point I make a snapshot file named 0123.snap and let the software continue running. More numbers get printed. Eventually the terminal is showing 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. I decide that I wish to go back in time, so I issue a command to load the 0123.snap file into the emulator. The internal state of the emulator warps back to the point at which I took the snapshot. The CPU registers, the RAM, and everything else within the emulator are now as they were earlier. The terminal retains the old state however, because it is a separate program with no awareness of the fact that I just loaded the 0123.snap file into my emulator. The guest OS carries on from the original point of course, since that is what the CPU and RAM state dictates, so a "4" will be printed next. The terminal then shows 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 4. The numbers are simply wrong. They should be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.

I can only avoid this fate by saving full terminal state whenever I save the emulator state, and of course restoring it at the same time too. There is no reasonable way to extract terminal state from a separate terminal program. (attacking it with ptrace is not reasonable) I thus conclude that the terminal must be built into the emulator.
Please don't use it in prod, this is work in progress.
> I agree that the current generation has lost the lesson of World War Two: that war is never a good option.

That is the exact opposite of the lesson of World War Two. The notion that war is not a good option and should be avoided by any means necessary is why it took six years and millions of lives to put Hitler down instead of what it would have taken to stop him before he finished building his war machine.

The “pacifists” of World War II were the traitors and collaborators who stood by and did nothing, other than surrender their armies and homelands and offer aid and comfort, as Hitler butchered an entire continent and murdered tens of millions of innocents.
Thanks. We moved the comments thither.
They should be grateful that it works like that. If they keep having to work hard to stay on top, it means that the algorithm is working. It would be be great if the rest of the world worked like this instead of the rich-get-richer situation that we have now.
It would be interesting to extend this to refactoring in programming :)
