I didn't really think about it until now, but a shift key in the middle of the keyboard would be fantastic idea. It doesn't really make sense to have two separate keys when one could fulfil the same purpose. I only hit the space key on the right side of the bar with my right thumb anyway, so having something for my left thumb to do would be ideal, while also freeing up 2 keys for other common functions.
Why, so have I, and so has every other programmer on Earth.

This has been mostly used as my engineering notebook, in lieu of stacks of Moleskines.

Simple command-line tool for editing and searching, a pipeline to any Markdown app for display, and DropBox for syncing, that's all I needed.

I could also use it on mobile with Pythonista, with some changes to get a DropBox path and open it in Editorial or Drafts, but so far just having the files is good enough.

My point is, every programmer should be capable of making certain basic tools of their own, such as note-taking, blogging, a calculator, and scripting languages.

They had already shown what their industry was being used for in Nanking so the sanctions were eminently justified for those who don't want more of it.

It was beyond the pale and appaled even imperial powers whose other history included things starting like the Opium War, passed the Chinese Exclusion Act and putting down the Boxer Rebellion.

Given that military action caused it that is a rather egregious to complain about the resulting sanctions and even worse to claim causus beli over it.
No. Overlord was promised and planned before. It was continually postponed. The decisions necessary to start were made in Teheran.

In many countries it is taught in schools that allies were simply taking their time, waiting for the lowest risk/highest return moment. That is one version.

Not at all: In my experience communication is 50% of the job as a software engineer. It's 100% of the job as a software engineering manager of sorts.

And remote communication is way more efficient. Things like text chat, comments in ticket systems or project management systems like asana etc are "soft interrupts" that I find surprisingly frictionless. I can stay in concentration until I've reached a natural interrupt of sorts, then answer chat messages or read up on tickets, ask clarifying questions or loop in more people (sending out a soft interrupt, but not waiting for replies), get back into concentration, and restart the loop at the next interrupt.

The alternative: It is now 9:35am. You know you have to leave at 9:55 to get to your 10:00 meeting in the meeting room that's 5 minutes away. But 20 minutes is not enough to get into concentration, so you spend that time procrastinating. At 10:00 you're there. At 10:10, the asshole who is always late shows up. The meeting takes 50 minutes, because the only reason to EVER end a meeting is getting kicked out of the meeting room. In this case it was booked for the 10:00-11:00 slot. You spend 5 more minutes walking back to your desk. Within the 50mins of meeting time, you were talking for 5 minutes. 10 minutes of the other speakers' time contained information you actually needed. You arrive at your desk at 11:05. That's 90 minutes flushed down the tube that could have been 15 minutes' worth of text chat, and the timing basically prevents deep work for maybe that first half of that workday.

I can remember, as a kid way back in the 1970s, reading about plans to "make the desert bloom" by towing icebergs to arid regions. But, as far as I know, it has never been done. Presumably logistics or politics got in the way.

What makes this iteration of the idea any different?
Arguably, when people shut themselves inside their cars for safety, they also become disconnected with the problems their society faces. They will have less incentive to fix the problems, so crime rises, and more people shut themselves in cars. A vicious circle.

Yeah, crimes in London is on the rise. And at the same time, people also keep getting hit and killed by cars. The diesel exhaust is filling people’s lungs, and the constant traffic noise is certainly putting a strain on people’s mind.

And instead asking Londoners to spend lots of money and get a car which they will have nowhere to park, what about reverse the police budget cut that left us with 22,000 fewer police officers?

There's three options:

1. We abolish ownership

2. Everyone is responsible for protecting his own stuff, resorting to vigilante justice if he finds the thief after the fact

3. The taxes we pay fund police and courts to bring justice.

Option 1 is a version of socialism, option 2 is anarchy, that only leaves us option 3 if we want capitalism.

>Arriving to your destination not wet/frozen/soaked in sweat? Or with your luggage

So someone flew me out to San Francisco last June to meet me and have me talk to a few people. I landed during the pride parade at SFO and was staying at the Proper (that place felt decidedly John Wick - the Continental and their chicken liver mousse hnnghh), I'd literally no idea nor did my uber driver that we wouldn't be able to get to the Proper. He got me within about 2 miles before the crowds and road closures and was like "I don't know how long this will take or if I can get you there" so I got out with my suitcase, in a city I'd never been in, with throngs of people.

The road immediately outside of my hotel window was the road the parade was on and was ultimately between me and the hotel. I had no idea there were subway entrances that I could get under the road with. Walking shoulder to shoulder, crotch to butt, butt to crotch, trying to protect my phone, wallet and suitcase, literally stepping over people passed out on the sidewalk (if not overdosed) that were being somewhat trampled. The heat in those dense pockets of people was insane, I had to keep craning my head up to try and get cooler air.

Yeah, even if there hadn't have been so many people, wondering around with a suitcase trying to find the hotel would not have been an enjoyable experience... especially given the alarming amount of human excrement, phlegm, gum etc I kept having to dodge.

I got to the hotel finally, opened the door and was hit with a wall of air con and was like "ughhh yassss" making it to the check in counter with my beard all poofy, my shirt soaked, probably looking like a vagrant and getting a weird look from the person behind the counter until I said I was checking in. First thing I did in the room was peel out of wet clothes, crank the air down and had probably the 3rd best shower of my life while I killed time waiting for the hotel restaurant to open since there was no way in hell I was going back outside into that mess to try and find fast food or a convenience store.

> every programmer should be capable of making certain basic tools of their own, such as note-taking, blogging, a calculator, and scripting languages.

I'd counter that by adding "...and wise enough to know better than to actually do it."
The core thing is that people don't think about how many assumptions are baked into their "need" for cars. The assumption that you have to live in a suburb, that public transport must needs be terrible forever, that you absolutely must be able to do this or that unnecessary thing at a whim, that nothing about the American car-dependent lifestyle should change.

Don't think about this in terms of your immediate personal situation, think about all the variables that need to change to build a future largely without cars.
You’re putting your preferences on others. Some people will drive for these benefits. Others prefer fresh air and exercise. Others prefer reading.

A set of people will gravitate to each option. But as OP said, it is people at the margin who help equalize times.
Yeah, I agree that Apple should have added at least one version worth of backwards compatibility if they want to see quick adoption. I suppose one could hide the whole view in defines and lug two implementations but that is not much better than waiting for one year.
I predict something similar to the debacle with the AirPods and the lack of a 3.5mm jack in the iPhone. Everyone made fun of the decision at the time but the Veblen good effect asserted itself anyway and now it's a standard to be emulated and a product that insipres envy in many.

Likewise, this product will be hailed as a status symbol in a few months precisely because of its absurdity.

Apple will continue to be contemptuous of its consumers because it keeps being richly rewarded for it. I am not trying to be edgy by making this claim: it was all laid out more than a century ago by a cheeky Norwegian-American, and more recently by patio11.
Debian's Anti-Harassment Team Continues Battling Community Issues in 2019
This isn't worth trying, let's use a 3rd party solution

You act as if this is bad thing. The last thing I want is another bespoke logging solution or ORM.

You can’t imagine the times I gladly ripped out my own bespoke solution for a third party one after finding one was available.

No sane company hires experienced developers to “develop”. They hire developers to have a breadth of industry knowledge to know when to build and when to outsource the “undifferentiated heavy lifting”. During the last few years, both companies I’ve worked for both in an architect level positions have never blinked at solutions that cost money over costing developer time in both development and maintenance.

Web apps, for example, are often very animation light, or low on more advanced graphics....
Well, maybe if more people in the team knew how to do more than build forms, we could try and build something fancier than forms.

Again you act like this is a bad thing. I came into a company where the dev leads were younger and relatively fresh CS grads and even the manager of the department was relatively young. He was the founder of the company before it got acquired.

They had so many ideas about the “right” way to do things and spent so much time arguing about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin they couldn’t ship software for crap.

You see the same thing at Google. After two decades, billions of dollars, untold cancelled projects and with all the smart people they have, almost all of their revenue still comes from advertising.

I saw so many head scratching overengineered custom developed systems that could have been done a lot simpler if they had had any real world experience.

On the opposite end, I was hired two years ago with a mandate partially to migrate all of the bespoke, complicated systems and use managed services/use third party packages where ever possible.

Another point is that 10mb is a lot of text, especially for users like me who use these types of note-taking apps as todo lists. For persistent notes I already have directory I store locally w/ cloud backup, but a webapp would be nice for my running todo list.

That will hopefully never top 10mb,so a free user like me would really eat into hosting costs. Perhaps a solution to people like the OP who are concerned about data being held hostage is to make it clear that after the trial period their data can be exported, that way they don't have to feel there is risk of it being held hostage.
So the ironic part is this script would no longer work after these deprecations because installing Homebrew requires a Ruby interpreter[0].

Obviously these things are fixable but a whole lot of people are going to have to do a lot of work to workaround having _no_ scripting languages installed by default on a fresh Mac.

Nope, because I don't like file-based sync. It's slow, unstable and hard to implement. People will say "how about Google Drive/OneDrive/Box support?" Hell awaits you.
The very fact that it works, is the reason it shouldn't be allowed.

Short-answer: The debugger (in Windows) sits between the first and second and chances, if I recall correctly, to "help" the user by displaying a dialogue notifying them that 'x' is unhandled. Anything in second chance has reached the kernel for handling and is no longer in the user space.

You'll often see this (second chance) as exception entries in the Windows Event Log for things like kernelbase.dll, which points to the offending instruction set. The handler in this space typically invokes Watson to generate Watson reports because it was unhandled elsewhere.

The debugger prevents all of that.

Of course, in JIT, you have things like read-ahead for first-chance exceptions...

A good book, in the Windows space, that cannot recommend enough, is Windows Internals[0]. They include how the managed and user spaces interact and coincide with the native and kernel spaces and how all of that transpires, such as how an exception in user mode transitions to kernel before Watson report is created.

There's other in-depth resources[1], as well, if books aren't your thing.

I was somewhat surprised with their entire Mac Pro strategy. With a base tower configuration starting at $6k (about twice what I was expecting), they seemed to signal a shift in what they consider a “pro” user to be.

They’re pretty clearly chasing after the commercial, high-end computing market, but they’ve kinda left the high-end consumer market behind in some ways.

Still no definitive fix to the fly switch keyboards, lots of complaints about other design issues in MacBooks, basic spec bumps in mainstay products like the iMac. All while they continue to (somewhat unjustifiably) raise prices.

The new Mac Pro is the coolest piece of tech they’ve built in a while, and it’s completely unsuited for 99.9% of users. What’s the point in mass-marketing it? It felt like watching a marketing video to buy an airplane or something.
Hi Tayuka,

Congratulations on the launch! Great to see end-to-end encryption made the cut. It seems hard to put the burden on users never to lose their login password though — they lose all their data when they do.
Have you looked at the Tanker SDK? It’s an open-source, cross-platform SDK for end-to-end encryption (with a zero-knowledge key distribution service), that’s very user friendly when it comes to recovery.

There is a difference between can and should.

Would you want your car to do so completely insensitive to current contexts? Especially if the road data winds up inaccurate in areas. I have had several GPSes tell me that I was "speeding" by going the 45 MPH because it thought it was a 25 road.

There is an expectation of servicing the user - if they did that they would be called Orwellian and lose drivers enmasse. It would also fail to address speeding in general as they would speed without tracking then.
But the pricing needs to be internally consistent for the brand to be taken seriously, whether as a luxury brand or otherwise. In other words, a $1k piece of metal with a couple of moving parts undermines the rest of their portfolio. It's one thing to have a uniformly expensive lineup like a watchmaker, and entirely different thing to price your most complicated offering (phone) and the dumbest one (metal piece) the same. Like what's the message here ?
Yes but I’ve never seen someone new to programming that bothered trying to figure out pyenv or similar. Even a lot of moderately experienced devs don’t bother with it. I guess it’s hard to realize the benefits of keeping environments organized until you’ve been burned by it.
I had a blowout once that caused an immediate 180, and within a few seconds I was going backwards on the freeway.

A lot of people expected search engine. I did too. But I also expected something about privacy. I presume that would be the main impetus for a lot of people to switch. Make sure you get the privacy / encryption done right (as in even Bloom would not be able to access your documents in the clear). Better privacy is what made search engine alternatives grow in popularity (duckduckgo, startpage, or qwant in france). It would not be any different for G Suite.
Why would you want to delete bytes from the beginning of a file? A file should be seen as a low-level data structure with a limited set of operations. If you want to implement a more complex data structure with a wider range of operations, there are usually multiple ways of implementing this on a low-level data structure with a limited set of operations. This is basically what a lot of software engineering is about. If you want to implement an array of bytes with delete and insert operations, there are many ways you could implement this on a low-level file. Which way is the best depends on so many other factors. Do you want undo-redo functionality, transaction properties, distributed access, and so on?
Have you ever lived outside San Francisco or Portland? Here in DC, during the summer (which lasts six months out of the year), the heat and humidity will have people sweating with even mild exertion. So to the speed of walking or biking, you have to also account for the time to take a shower at either end.

The CO2 and microparticles are definitely a problem. One which can be addressed by banning non-electric cars downtown.
