Other schemes that may be of use:

1) Gambit. Compiles to C. Interesting tools built on top are Termite (Erlang-like concurrency framework) and Lambdanative

2) TinyScheme - super minimalist embeddable scheme.

3) Kawa Scheme - on JVM. Much smaller and faster than Clojure when I used it last.

4) Bigloo - can compile to C & Java bytecode.

Note ChezScheme is now open source and has very good documentation.
On the one hand it sounds like you're saying that software engineers are paid enough already, then on the other hand you're saying you think the compensation given to the software engineers that founded the company - which is much MUCH higher than that of the average company engineer is appropriate.

It feels like what you're saying is that the risk of failing in a startup is massive enough for a founder that they deserve literally billions of dollars.

Could you let me know exactly what risks you think a failing startup founder faces that would entitle them to say, a thousand times more dollars than the average salaried employee? Are you saying that because a founder may go bankrupt they are entitled to thousands of times more money? Does this mean that any individual that takes out a loan larger than their assets to start a business is entitled to thousands of times more money than their average employee? Could you help me understand what makes you think that?
There are over a billion innocent people in China. The products themselves are mostly innocent and the people who build them make their livelihoods manufacturing them. That the government takes a cut is incidental. It's simply not comparable to a product specifically built to support dictatorship.

Over 5 trillion in US tax money has been used to prosecute unjust war in the middle East resulting in 100s of thousands of deaths. Is boycotting Disney movies that support the government through taxes the same as boycotting predator drones?

While I agree with you here, but if you're doing a 9 hour work day with an hour on the shoulders for your commute, then you're looking at 19 hours dedicated to work alone.

Say, 30 minutes for dinner (if you're not the one cooking), 15 minutes for shower/grooming, 30 minutes for exercise plus whatever time it takes to get ready and cool down...so...an hour? If you're rolling solo, that probably rounds out your daily commitments. With kid(s) and a partner, you're down to 3 hours in which to help/bond with kids, spend time with your partner, plus whatever travel/wind up/wind down time those things take. Maybe 30 minutes a day you could really commit to these things?

I dunno, there are a lot of variables, but I find that prescriptive articles like these essentially dump the demands for your <insert here> project upon the shoulders of your family. If you want to make it really uncomfortable, consider the demographics of people here and in the software industry at a whole. Now it's just more of men offloading the work of family, house and home, etc. on the women in order for them to get their own projects done.

Sounds great, but don't expect much.

It is trivial. You don't need to craft an auto sear - you can just buy one.

https://www.newfrontierarmory.com/shop/m-16-full-auto-lpk/

The reason why it's legal is because these will only fit in a full auto receiver, which is the regulated part. But most semi-auto lower receivers can be converted to accept said full auto trigger group simply by drilling a single hole in the receiver. Which is also fairly trivial, given that you're drilling aluminum, and jigs are readily available:

> Holds also for Portuguese (in Brazil)

Brazil was a great place to practice Spanish. Almost nobody spoke English when I visited, so I ended up speaking Spanish with everyone. Some people spoke Spanish themselves, and for the rest, the mutual intelligibility with Portuguese was good enough to get by.
It's amazing that the iconic dance/trance clap (the clap after 1:15 in Acid Tracks) was forged alongside the 303. This exact sample (or an unbelievably similar one) could be heard throughout the late 90's and still features in many tracks today. It's the Wilhelm Scream of EDM.

Acid eventually resulted in liquid trance, which eventually became psytrance. Liquid was a fantastic exploration of the nature of sound, with many types of dynamics for a single instrument. EDM receives as lot of criticism for its lack of humanity and skill (regarding playing an instrument), but the same could be said of Beethoven or Bach: they were merely creating scores for an orchestra to play. EDM can be the same type of approach, only we now have ways to explore sound that simply weren't available to the great composers.

Wish I'd discovered #3 much sooner. Much easier to talk to someone you're paying. Everything else felt like I was burning the patience of the few friends I'd made.

Getting a boyfriend/girlfriend that doesn't want to speak English is probably the biggest language-learning hack.

I also wish I'd tried reading books sooner.

If you don't talk to people, you'll be able to read books in Spanish yet be useless at speaking/hearing. That was me for quite some time.

My initial problem was that I didn't come to Mexico to learn Spanish. I came to escape and work on my own projects and do my own things after burning out and quitting a job in the States. It was the eventual shame of "so how long have you lived here?" that got me serious about learning Spanish.
Roland recently reissued many of their classic synths including an updated 303. Now it’s called the TB-03 and it has a “friendly” step programming option in addition to the original crazy style:

If they only used that stuff when called for, that would be nice.

In practice, most of the time, all that gear is used to serve no-knock warrants on non-violent offenders (usually involving drugs).

Maryland used to publish statistics for their use of SWAT teams; look that up, and note the breakdown on kinds of circumstances they were called in for, and whether it was no-knock or not. No-knock generally means busting doors and sometimes ramming walls (with those very MRAPs), throwing flashbangs etc.

I like to see where progress is at on Decentralized, but so far much of the progress is written in expert-talk. Even a glossary on one side of a (mostly-empty) page is way better than -expecting- non-experts to grok in enough-fullness.
In most cities in US, SWAT and local police are the same people wearing slightly different uniforms. This is not so in Europe, where there's a clear distinction between beat cops (who don't get MRAPs) and special forces.

Cannot edit previous comment so adding new-

Can you please add some details on Unicode support? Most terminals claim to have it but fail miserably on Asian (Asia continent) fonts.

1) RTL for west Asia

2) Indic fonts and dependent vowels

3) Double width cjk.

I genuinely believe that without all 3, no terminal emulator deserves to claim Unicode support.

The article isn't saying the "prison retreat" thing is common, it's a meta commentary on the stress of Korean corporate life.

I have seen a question on HN about Japanese "Black Companies" before, and I believe patio11 said that they were an actual thing. So I'm not surprised a similar culture of overwork exists in South Korea.

(My only direct experience of South Koreans is that they always kick my ass at online games).

The O_TMPFILE flag is just an anonymous file as far as I understand. From that source file, VTE uses glib, particularly g_get_tmp_dir() and g_file_open_tmp() (which uses the latter), which claims to honor TMPDIR according to the docs: https://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/glib-Miscellaneous-U...

I wasn't speaking of just Apple though, that desire to "lock in" is very common. It took actual regulation in the EU get get unified charging cables. Customers should be ahead of regulation in protecting their own interests.

> You could argue it is wrong, but from a financial perspective it is most definitely working

By that point you're arguing squarely on behalf of the bank account of the company, the customer is completely removed. They are just someone who "should be willing to follow whatever they decide is best", even if it's just best for the company profits, which in the case of Apple they kinda hoard.

> many people are still willing to support them

If that makes my opinion invalid, by the same token my opinion makes theirs invalid. Since I have my opinion, the fact that people assume the position as a helpless consumer, rather than a equal in a fair transaction, be it with Apple or others, is the problem, not the solution.

How many of them will still be at your company in 3 years time though? Chinese companies are realizing that students with a little bit of work experience at Western firms are a lot more valuable than new grads (especially because a lot of new grads nowadays are kids of rich parents who couldn't hack it in the Chinese education system).

Smart, ambitious Chinese students are now planning the right new work experiences in the US with an eye towards returning back to China as a junior VP at Tencent or Alibaba when they go back. The way to retain them in the US is to give them the same career opportunities here but a lot of Chinese students are realizing they can climb the ladder a lot faster and further in China and making the rational choice to go back.

Even though the parent already replied to you, I'd like to clarify a mistake in your reading for others to learn from: "to fuck off" does not mean to slack or goof off. It refers to leaving some place (generally with an attitude of getting the hell out of Dodge).

You most likely have misconstrued "to fuck off" with "to fuck around." Although the former may be used interchangeably with the latter, it was fairly obvious from the original comment that that is not how it was being used.
I agree with the article and comments as well. Does anyone else get so fed up with this light and fluffy style of "gamefication"?

I can explain where your astonishing comes form(maybe off topic): there are something to do with how China built the nation yet not quite visible to westerners.

There are many factors. One important factor which amplifies other factors is related to big number theory: quantity is translated into quality. Average Chinese are not quite different from other nationals.(Let's put down controversial conclusion for now) . However China has 1.3 billion people.
With such a big number , a small shift of the average on the IQ bell curve doesn't matter. What you have met are a vary small portion of top talent from China. As analogy, you can image a typical top NBA athlete would be black. But with 1.3 billion people there exists a Yao Ming who is not a typical Chinese.

Then why it happened recently? That's related to last 30 years rapid development.But that's invisible part. China not only build road , bridge, bullet train, etc. more importantly which also matches Chinese traditional value: China invest heavily in Education. In 80's (i.e. my generation ) only 5-10% of high school graduate can be accepted by limited universities at the time. But money poured into Education increased year by year incrementally like crazy. Today there are enough universities to provide any qualified students an opportunity for education. The consequence is there's a big change on human capital. This is not limited to what you observed but also in other areas. For example, China is exporting the infrastructure building expertise all over the world. Quite often the builders have to bring whole teams from China because qualified teams are only available there. Those are experienced skill construction workers but not academically competitive students.

The significant increase in human capital is less visible than infrastructure improvement, yet it has a bigger impact
I understood that the attendance’s irritarion and the “acceptance of your talk may have been implicitly preconditioned on the attendees being able to benefit from the code/library/project in question" would also apply to someone else’s talks.
