Well, ok, I see what you're getting at - but unless you moved to outside of EU, you are still fully covered by the country where your new permanent residence is. If you moved out of Czech Republic to Spain for example, just get an EHIC card from Spain and you can get treatment wherever you go in EU, including Czech Republic.
This makes me nervous to see how much content there is to know.

I work on the DevOps lite team ( App Support) pivoting between shepherding devs towards SRE - friendly practices, to re-re-re fixing the GPO/AD permissions on servers so the service accounts for prod apps work, to taking over all the new monitoring tools and other toys from the SRE team the moment the new toy feeling wears off and it's time to actually integrate it with the rest of the engineering org, to taking the emails from end users to troubleshoot and spelunk data out of whatever system so as not waste the devs time.

Sorry no huge point except maybe reading all the article content gives me a sense of intimidation or imposter syndrome. IT as a field needs some kind of meditation or chant to help us not get overwhelmed with the amount/breadth of work we get put on our place.
There are all sorts of challenges with a growing fish farming industry, including affecting the natural ecosystems. But it would be a challenge without them, as it would probably put even more pressure on the overfished seas (especially if we can find alternative protein sources for the salmon than fish meal).

Raising $20k at indiegogo to start an instant messaging startup
Hello,
I am raising $20k at indiegogo to start a new instant messaging app.
the app is current in concept stage and it hard to be funded under normal accelerator program due to being in concept stage.
Come and support me by contributing so that the project can be successfully completed and the startup will start to operate as it will have the capital to operate.

I'm only familiar with the UK, but the NHS absolutely deals with births for "free".
Apologies if this unsolicited advice comes off as rude, but consider easing up on the italicizing and "quoting" of random words. It makes your writing style hard to read and waters down the effect when you do each once per paragraph.
Which is why I've read that jokes - where the format is setup and then the twist - are hard to express in German :)
Moreover, man pages serve as an essential resource that is much more reliably available than any other - when my network's routing packets in circles, the database server's on fire, and the duplicate has repeated the last transaction on every record, I don't care how "most users" don't use man pages or that web documentation is much more Google-able; I care that I have access to complete, detailed information (not the abbreviated version provided by --help) on all the utilities available to me; I care that apropos can help me recall the names of utilities I don't remember (something the article does not address); I care that I don't have to worry about having access to documentation, in addition to everything else, because it's all in a single, standardized, effective repository of man pages.

I really can't express strongly enough how much I disagree with the view that man pages are no longer relevant or necessary.

People save up for having a kid the way they save up for anything else expensive. Also most hospitals are 'kind' enough to allow you to set up a payment plan so you can pay it off over a few years.
> For pensioners the top complaint is usually energy bills, but I don't think it's a good idea to make energy too cheap lest people use more of it.

I agree with you, but I don't know what the solution was. I've still got my thermostat set to "off" from summer, and am turning it on periodically. Last night it hit 14 degrees before I got home. Telling a pensioner to "use less energy" because their home is 14 degrees seems a little too far.
In the end most products are "just taking something and putting it into something else". What they are probably doing is making the glasses actually look good, not like a pair of 3D glasses from the theater or like a pair of glasses with pieces of film stuck on them.

China has been continuously shafted for the last 200 years.

They have just finally put their foot down and are learning from the West how it's done.
A case in point is the South China Sea: They know that the best claim is the 'fait accompli', that's how the West did 'colonize the world' and it's telling that the only remaining land available are a few islands and reefs in the South China Sea. These are the crumbs we left over.

If you want the hard definition, it's:

"Employee Engagement is a fundamental concept in the effort to understand and describe, both qualitatively and quantitatively, the nature of the relationship between an organization and its employees"

Tesla has an effect similar to iPhone, where people spend more to have it than what they used to generally for a car before. Even Tesla leadership was surprised by it (they expected to get to $35k sooner, but also didn't expect to be able to sell so many cars at $50k).

Checking whether you're connected to a TTY is a good practice, but there's also cognitive advantages of silent applications too.

If you want the commune to function as a commune, from each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs, yes it is. People change and their life circumstances change. They have children and they are much more motivated to provide for theirs than to provide for those of their commune mates. Some people are much more productive than others and with the best will in the world, not always available, they get tired of putting in more than an equal share and getting out an equal one. You don’t get celibate quasi-monastic communities outside religious ones and those are the only examples I’m aware of that perpetuate themselves across generations in a strict communal fashion. Even with multigenerational religious communities they don’t generally share a large portion of property communally. The Hutterites, Amish and similar groups function as communities with strong norms, a great deal of community self help and group decision making but most property is held at the household level. And they generally fission somewhere between 50 and 100 families when coordination problems and group communication gets unwieldy.

If the commune does ninetieth percentile well they’ll keep drama and internal feuding to a minimum, with no one “stealing” anyone else’s spouse and it’ll eventually turn into a co-op with most people holding a lot of individual property.
In statistics there's a slight difference between something that happens 100% of the time and something that always happens.

Or rather just because something has a probability of 0 doesn't mean it can't happen, events with probability 0 happen all the time.

They may also have been referring to the fact that picking a random number over the whole number line is not that as simple as it sounds since the uniform distribution doesn't exist.
The article claims that aside from memory consumption the main advantage of the Go approach is that the scheduler is integrated with the channels concept and thus knows which goroutines are blocked and don't need to be scheduled until some data shows up in their channel.

But don't OS threads work like this as well, by being integrated with file descriptors among other things? If a thread is blocked on a read, the OS knows this and won't keep scheduling that thread - right?

If so, the article's argument about time wasted on scheduling doesn't make sense.
Medical care has arguably gotten better and continues to improve. Housing is vague and controversial, because land is fixed, and people can live in formats that have significant impact on other people, and they continue to prefer modes that cost more for sundry reasons (not all of them good, but there is choice). Food has gone up, but there are savings to be had if you adjust your habits and expectations. No one need starve.

But education is the big one: no real net improvement from many decades ago (arguably worse), and in greater supply than ever. Why has cost continued to go up?
man pages are the first place I'm looking in for flags for commands I know for years, or when I'm using new commands — and it's always a frustrating experience when they don't exist.

Please, always ship man pages with whatever you write. It's /easy/ to do and has a great added value.

PS: doc on the web is so often irrelevant… either too old, or too recent — and in the rare cases where it's properly versioned, the workflow is something like “cmd --version ; google cmd $version” instead of just “man cmd”, which is nowhere as convenient or reliable.
An idealized 'dot' has zero 'volume', as does a countable number of such dots. The bulk of the real number line is made from irrational numbers, with a countable number of rational dots mixed in.

If you define the 'probability' of hitting a rational dot in terms of ratios of volumina, it will be mathematically zero.
I am not buying it either. Corporations do not have moral. The board might have some political considerations but we know that entering the Chinese market mean that Google had to accept things that are amoral.
Total shame. The idea of "circles" was really innovative. Hope, Facebook will implement it.

I have to disagree with 2 parts about your argument. One is that centralization and capital concentration isn't a problem.
The other is that the origin of ownership is irrelevant. That's also not true.

If interests of one region buy up all the production of another, they inevitably move all production to one place, their original base. Ports, mines and railways are a generally an exception to a the rule, but still lots of positions on management, engineering, logistics etc are lost in the selling country/region and moved to the buying one.

To elaborate on the US-EU analogy:

In US, some regions concentrate more wealth and power than others, having the majority of production and/or headquarters based there.
But in the US there's real freedom of movement. You can work in Montana one day, move to Florida the next, and it's no big deal. The residents of economically disadvantaged areas have to carry the burden of moving away for work, but that's the only burden they face.

In the EU there are 24 official languages. Simply put, you can't just move anywhere you'd like to be. Learning a new language takes many years. I've been using English almost daily for 10+ years and I still come across new words quite often.
Primarily due to this reason, in the EU, freedom of movement is allowed only on paper. Workers from disadvantaged areas have to take on a huge burden if they decide to move. They have to learn a new language, a new tax system, a new everything from workplace H&S rules to mains outlet types.
Also they often face a lot of discrimination (even if language skills aren't a dead giveaway, ethnic differences are usually visible to us, even if they would seem minute to an American). So essentially when a factory moves from Italy or Slovenia to Germany, the locals lose a lot more than just the inconvenience of having to move across a couple states for work.
Google+ also implemented the opposite: you share to your Quilting collection, and everybody who follows you can choose whether to follow that collection or not.

The combination of circles and collections is very powerful, though the way G+ implemented it, they do overlap a bit, and don't entirely play well together. Slightly more flexible collections would help a lot.
If there's a cycle of strong references with Rc or Arc (or shared_ptr in C++), those objects still never get dropped/have their destructors called.
For that, you might as well just use the regex functionality in man itself too. But that misses the point.

The goal of grepping in that snippet is that you're `less `ing through precisely the parts that matter, and no more, rather than wading through the whole man page, and you're using -C to control how much context you (think you) need around the search results. This is a much better setup for skimming through potential hits than going through the man page wall of text.
The verb list is, in practice, 90% Get-* and Set-* , so for most users that will cover the case where they need to read and modify some system state in a script.

It may not cover your particular use case (I want to foo this bar), but as restriction on the language it helps your users not have to discover esoteric commands.
Incorrect. For example in The Netherlands it is mandatory to be insured. If you refuse to pay insurance, not only will you have to pay 100% of healthcare costs, you'll also be fined.
In Portugal we have fees even in the public system, supposedly to reduce frivolous use. That said, they are usually under 10€, and large swaths of the population - including pregnant people - are exempt, so yeah, having a baby is free.

Setting Up Angular 6, GitLab and Google App Engine
Here’s a controversial perspective. Maybe most people’s expectations are too lofty, and their abilities much lower than the think they are.

In 2000, less than 25% of the working popultion had a bachelors degree. Today, every young person I talk to expects to finish a Phd, JD, and MBA. And, now everyone wants to live in the trendiest (highest-cost areas). There are plenty of places in the US where a house can be purcahsed for under $100k.

Unless you came from wealth, or you’re definitely in the top 1% of your peers, maybe set your expectations a bit lower. Or, at least be patient as you work your way up. Build wealth the old fashion way (like we did 25 years ago) - get a menial job (i.e. “in the mail room”), genuinely try to help your bosses (not compete with them), slowly build your reputation and circle of influence, take night classes at the community college, live below your means, save, etc.
If you really care about reliability you implement transactional semantics on your output storage: i.e. writes are not globally visible until an explicit system wide atomic commit is preformed.

The destructor would instead be in charge to perform the rollback actions on an uncommitted transaction, if any. Rollback cannot fail and indeed the system must preserve integriy even if not performed as there is no guarantee that the process will not be killed externally.

Of course if you do not care about data integrity, swallowing errors in close is perfectly acceptable.

Edit: in general destructors should only be used to maintain the internal integrity of the process itself (freeing memory, clising fds, maintaining coherency of internal datastructures), not of external data or the whole system. It is fine to do external cleanup (removing temporary files, clearing committed transaction logs, unsubscribing from remote sources, releasing system wide locks etc), but shoud always be understood to be a best effort job.

A reliable system need to be able to continue in all circumstances (replying or rolling back transactions on restart, cleaning up leftover data, heartbeating and timing out on connections and subscriptions, using lock free algos or robust locks for memoryshared between processes, etc).

With the spread (...foo) operator you can already merge json objects. However in order to use it you need to have access to the objects you make reference to.

This is how it would work: In the front end (like in react-redux) you have your state variable and then you normally make a request to the backend, which the backend returns this "JSON2" object, which you can merge automatically (with JSON2.merge method) to create the new state, without requiring reducers. The only thing is that the back-end would need to be aware of how the front-end state structure looks like (it doesn't need to keep track of the current state though).

// the front-end state

let state = {
some: "things",
nested: {
something: {
what: "what",
}
},
other: [2,3]
}

// action is a string with JSON2 format that comes from a query to the back-end. Take the "..." literally

let action = "{
...,
nested: {
something: {
...,
more: "manymore"
}
},
other: [1, ...]
}"

// create the new state

state = JSON2.merge(state, action)

// now state is:

state = {
some: "things",
nested: {
something: {
what: "what",
more: "manymore"
}
},
other: [1,2,3]
}

IIRC you don't need to pipe to less at all for that - man already supports it. grep -C gives a good summary of the various options, then you can just pull up the man page and use that selfsame search to get details that might've been cut off.

Not to mention that home computers had a different set of devices to handle as well - eg. cassette drives, floppy disks and later small hard disks - often with their own controllers which had to be interfaced with the system somehow (using isolated I/O on CPU's like the Z80, and memory-mapped I/O on others like the 68000).

In my experience it doesn't help people, especially at an earlier stage, but rather clutters what people already know about JavaScript. It causes tooling to slow down and ultimately doesn't prevent bugs that could not already be caught by good design and linting.

The footnote can be found in the original article at https://www.quantamagazine.org/why-mathematicians-cant-find-...

The reason it’s 100 percent and not 99.9999 percent has to do with the strange things that happen once you start thinking about the probabilities when infinity is involved. Around the turn of the 20th century, the mathematician Henri Lebesque helped to develop “measure theory,” which provided a mathematically rigorous way for calculating the probabilities when infinite outcomes are possible.
