Yes.

I’m not being emotional about it, just irritated.

Systemd has tangibly caused me to lose work with tmux; I appreciate there are root causes for this, but frankly, if some piece of someone’s code does that, for whatever reason that is beyond my control to immediately stop using it...

...it feels justified to be annoyed.

How do you suggest an alternative meaningful response would look?

Create my own distribution?

What tangible and meaningful alternatives do I have other than encouraging people not to use systemd?
it's the architecture of the original lisp machine from which all other lisp machines (arguably) derive, mit's CADR. there's not many of them built, since it was made by hand wiring, but there's still one or two around in a working state.

Re-vesting schedules are all over the map.

Some amount of re-vesting is often required at Series A, but it largely has to do with how vested the founders already are. If for example they've been working on the company for only a year, the existing vesting schedule will probably be left alone. On the other hand, if they've been working on the company for multiple years and are close to fully vested at Series A, it's almost guaranteed that the Series A investor will ask the founder to re-vest some amount of shares (for the reason you describe).

Re-vesting generally does not show up again after the Series A.

If you get fired before you fully vest, whether you leave with the equity you have or all your equity is something you can negotiate as part of the vesting terms.
Not even considering one. Mostly because of cost, commute, and prolly my slightly autistic fear of people.

As a German I have to say that registers for people are a great idea!

We have had very positive experiences with labeling people. While we had to do this in an analog way the last time, the label itself really helped a lot with "dealing" with people who were a problem.

I think if we would make registers like these again, modern technology would really help us to be even more efficient the next time.

Don't see what could go wrong, especially when political leaders change etc.

Everything you say rings true ca 2000 to 2012. Today, CSS and the rendering engines have both improved and converged to such a degree, I’m not sure it’s fair to still criticize them quite so harshly.

Of course the cutting edge will temporarily see one rendering engine a few months behind another. But that’s unavoidable unless you prefer a monoculture, which is liable to move slower than slowest of today’s major rendering engines.

It’s perfectly normal today to create CSS (and JS) in one browser and find it working flawlessly in another. 10 years ago, you would have called everyone over to your screen to have them witness this miracle.

> I can't say "hey, CSS, this is the parent div, and all child divs must obey its size". I can't do anything basic on CSS without turning for help.

Use Flexbox. It makes layout so much more straightforward.

This is an awesome resource for learning Flexbox that you can use as a reference until you don't need to anymore: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/

> I have no idea which colors "go" with which ones, and pretty much all fonts look like the same for me.

This isn't about learning CSS, this is about learning design, which is a completely different game.

Were they actually craving those foods, I think the solution to scurvy would have been discovered almost immediately.

Alas, the human body rarely if ever communicates useful solutions in this way.
The fundamental problem, I think, is that alignment is a key concept in design which isn't reflected well in CSS. The concepts of normal flow and the box model are almost at odds with wanting to align lots of different parts of a page. CSS Grid and Flexbox do help with this certainly but don't completely solve the problem.

Even disregarding mobile and tablets, I think it's also sometimes surprisingly quite hard sometimes to specify how fundamentally you want a page to look in differently-sized browsers - how things like spacing and guttering and so on should work particularly when your content is dynamic.

Plus, there is the fact that it is hard to shield parts of your page from being inadvertently affected by CSS that you don't want to affect it. Again, there are ways to minimise this, but if you're not the only person working on your codebase, good luck!

And if you want to learn a bit about design, The Non-Designer's Design Book by Robin Williams is a good starting point. It is a quick and engaging read and will certainly make you start to appreciate things like the differences between fonts.

But they did exactly that.

They contacted the tmux mainteners and asked if some modifications would be possible to accomodate the new option (see poettering comment here: run things as child of systemd --user or just register a separate PAM session). If I remember correctly, it would not even have been the first special case in tmux ; there already is one for OSX.

The discussion was actually progressing nicely until the anti-systemd flooded it. I remember seeing posts in a lot of place urging people to comment on the bug report with specious arguments. The whole thing was kind of upsetting.

Serious question: what is the point of such high pixel density? I assume you can not tell any difference between 2k and 4k from the distance a laptop is supposed to be used. Is it purely a marketing hype? Or am I missing something?
Ugh, 16:9.

When will laptops stop coming with 16:9 monitors? Do people really buy laptops to watch movies, or productivity?
The term sheet we posted is just meant to show what a pretty good term sheet looks like from a good investor. The investor having its legal fees reimbursed by the company is something that shows up all the time. Sure, you can negotiate that if you want. You can negotiate other things too, or choose not to. The way this usually plays out though is that unless you have the kind of leverage that lets you basically write your own term sheet, you have to prioritize, and most people prioritize getting what they want on valuation, control, clean terms, etc. before making sure to shift $30K in legal fees back to the investor.
Aleksa,

I am not trying to get you to use our APIs. You talking about the cgroups APIs again, if I am not mistaken? As I tried to explain again and again: if you want container runtimes to manage their own cgroups then just set Delegate=yes in the unit file of your manager, get your own cgroup subtree, and you can do below it whatever you want, you do not have to call into systemd ever. Not a single API call, no C call, no D-Bus call, nothing. You get your own kingdom if you set Delegate=yes, and systemd won't interfere with that. This is extensively documented.

I wished you'd actually listen to what I keep repeating to you. We tried to be really nice to container managers, knowing that they disklike systemd APIs, so we put a lot of work in making the delegation boundary clean, so that they can be entirely systemd agnostic beyond setting the Delegate=yes boolean in their unit file, but alas, we just keep hearing the same nonsense.

The LXC/LXD people btw did get this right: they manage their own cgroup subtree now, and systemd doesn't interfere, and they don't link to or do dbus calls into systemd either.
i wouldn't call it "easy", but it's a way to run a historic MIT lisp system, that predates common lisp. the language it uses is "lisp machine lisp", which was later used as one of the basis for common lisp standardization.

Contiki uses protothreads, so I would class that as 'partial' C support, since you can't really use local variables (due to the hair-raising nature of how protothreads works).

When the only time you have needed to implement a sort algorithm in 15 years is for an interview, then it shouldn't be so controversial an opinion to say its a stupid way to interview. If the job involves writing that sort of algorithm by all means test for it, but the majority of jobs aren't.
Previous to the DARPA job, she was doing enterprise development for places like Fidelity - very normal Java, JavaScript, database stuff for decades at multiple companies.

Full-HD is ~140 PPI, that's not low but not so high more wouldn't be a noticeable difference. Not really needed for general use IMHO, but also not just hype.
This is something that worries me, especially if you studied at a non-US uni. Would he have the same experience if he studied at one of the best Spanish/French unis? I'm not persuaded of the quality of the top US universities being that much higher to justify the insane costs (that is, from the perspective of a non-US person wanting to get to the US IT industry).

That sounds miserable. Your job is to help institutions make bad decisions that deny educational opportunities to children who aren't clued into how to game the system?

The only mitigating aspet is that I suspect that this system isn't used at schools that deliver educations worth paying for.

> I'm not suggesting malice but I do wonder at the lack of defensive programming.

I've never worked at Apple but neither have I in 10 years seen people truly appreciate any attempts I did in defensive programming. On the contrary, usually I hear - sometimes loud - complaints about that. Usually from fellow engineers when they see it but on occasions also from non technical people.

It's a joke that everybody is so sad about bad application security but at the same time virtually nobody cares about it at all when involved in an actual development project.

Classical case of NIMBY. FWIW Apple's security is far over average compared to other companies. But I guess they cannot isolate themselves 100%.
Or getting fallout raining on you? Or eating stuff that's been growing in fallout rain. Or eating meat from livestock grazing on polluted areas.

When you run your screen or tmux below `systemd --user`, you still would have to `loginctl enable-linger`, no? I remember having to do that when I set up a PulseAudio server on a headless machine where I don't maintain an active session.

Can't upvote you enough for taking on this point, and wanted to specifically call this one out.

There will be lots of anecdata from people out there who have pushed entirely by themselves, but the data across the world shows that social mobility is limited as much by aspiration as it is by solely grades. It isn't solely parental (although most of the time it is), but also driven by the school environment.

If you're unlucky enough to be in a shit school, with shit teachers from primary to 6th form, and lack of support or knowledge of education and career paths at home, you're essentially fucked unless some stroke of luck comes out of somewhere.

You're right. For how nice it is, OLED is really a stopgap tech.

The reason samsung never invested in OLED tvs is due to cost and poor longevity.

MicroLED is the same concept as OLED but without the degradation. OLED was simply easier to engineer given current tech, vs manufacturing tiny LEDs.

OLED will be supplanted by microLED. However if samsung can make these displays cheap enough, they will be nice in the interim. I don't expect to see microLED in mass market devices for quite some time.

For people who where wondering how this would even work on a technical level, the article contains a few pleasantly concrete examples:

> When the researchers investigated the microbiomes of [mice who avoid social contact], they found the animals lacked a common species called Lactobacillus reuteri. When they added a strain of that bacteria to the diet, the animals became social again.

Dr. Costa-Mattioli found evidence that L. reuteri releases compounds that send a signal to nerve endings in the intestines. The vagus nerve sends these signals from the gut to the brain, where they alter production of a hormone called oxytocin that promotes social bonds.

Other microbial species also send signals along the vagus nerve, it turns out. Still others communicate with the brain via the bloodstream.
> Javascript is logical (sort of...), and a lot like learning math. It's fairly easy to validate your output. It works well with the logical side of your brain.

No, it really isn't.

Was this article really just pointing out that functions can be put into submodules, imported into other modules, and used by other fucntions?

I was hoping for something about, say how to decompose a 10,000 line function with cross-cutting concerns into multiple files.

BTW, I felt unease with:

STOPWORDS = set(
map(str.lower,
map(str.strip,
open(os.path.join(FILE, 'stopwords'), 'r').readlines()
)
)
)

I feel better with:

STOPWORDS = set(line.strip().lower() for line in
open(os.path.join(FILE, 'stopwords'))

While there aren't enough stopwords that this will be a performance issue, according to my timings using /usr/share/dict/words on a Mac for 100 reads, it may have made performance sense for Python 2.7 to use this approach:

== Python 2.7 ==
map 20.7530391216
me 24.4680659771
ratio: 1.17901122017

but under Python 3.7 the more concise (and I argue more readable) way is faster:

== Python 3.7 ==
map 19.93948793411255
me 19.127523183822632
ratio: 0.9592785555490216

Very interesting read. I'm not convinced that Postgres should be used for every aspect of a data processing pipeline yet but the author has certainly proved it is possible. You also seem to get a lot of features for free that people using Kafka can only dream of.

US population is not doing just fine when it comes to nutrition and overall health. What is wrong would make a very lengthy article on its own, but I guess we can agree there are definitely things to improve, and this could be one of them.

One of the reasons we might not be having fiber cravings is, we don't need it for ourselves per se, but foreign, albeit friendly gut bacteria. It is possible for bacteria to manipulate its hosts ie by releasing some enzymes, but maybe we didn't evolve our symbiosis that far yet. Or we're drowning those cravings into more intense ones like sugar or other addictions.
I can't seem to find a reference, but I remember hearing years ago someone trying to adopt Japanese convenience store stock strategy. Apparently, the small stores have a good relationship with their peers and exchange goods as needed. The distributed nature compensates for deep stock.

Similarly, when I worked for Pizza Hut years ago about once a month we'd run low or out of something and would phone up 1 or 2 nearby stores and send a driver out to make the swap.

What you want is a laptop with a matte screen. Not a "glossy treated for reflection/matte like", which is what you find on most expensive laptops like those from Apple, but actually matte.

It's kind of hard to find because it doesn't sell well because the colors are very much toned down on it, but you can have the sun right behind your screen and it won't matter. I still have one from ~2012 (from the french store LDLC, which are rebranded custome made Clevo) that I gave my GF, and for work purpose and always being at top visibility the screen destroys anything else I've used since.

I'm genuinely weirded out that as far as I know there is no major work brand like XPS or MBP offering true matte screen as options anymore ...

PS: if you haven't seen one before, it's truly no reflection/competition with the sun at all, and it's truly washed out colors.

EDIT: I would at least like to know why I'm downvoted ? A true matte screen is vastly better when facing sunlight, which is what I'm answering to
