That's certainly one option. The unique thing about dotfiles is that everyone has a different 'best solution'. The setup outlined in my post has the advantage of being highly configurable and programmable. However, for some people it might make more sense to use a plain git repo with symlinks as installing Nix on all their devices could be a nonstarter.
I'm curious, what do you use to manage tools that don't have a `source $SOME_PATH` option. Do you symlink?

That's because there's no point including an entire library if you only need a few functions. It means that your deployed bundle is much smaller, which means that users don't need to download unused code and waste time/bandwidth (ie a good thing).

Tree shaking still isn't that great or widely available, so separate packages mean you can do this manually.

That was with the old LVM snapshots. Modern CoW snapshots have a much smaller impact. Plus XFS developers are working on internal snapshots, multi-volume management, and live fsck (live check already works, live repair to come).
Have you actually done an export of your Notion workspace?

I looked at their options before using Notion and was happy they had a full export available - but then I actually went ahead and used it because they are putting zero focus into improving the performance of the apps - and the export format is a horrific mess!

They split out code blocks from your notes in separate notes, the filenames are a mess and images aren't saved inline (as they could be with something like base64).

For workspaces of any reasonable size, you're going to be doing a lot of work to make the export actually useful outside the context of Notion - which should be obvious given how they treat things as blocks (and all the abstractions that come with that make it into their underlying data structures)

They've also been saying the "API is coming soon" for about a year now.

CORRECTION: I have written the above before reading the manual, so I was wrong. This cannot be used for continuous measurement as I hoped, it is just a more convenient variant of the older Omron wrist drvices, which I was already using. There are actually prototypes for non-invasive continuous blood pressure measurement devices, based on the same methods as the pulse monitors. There are now even experimental kits, e.g. from Maxim. However, those devices require individual calibration, because they measure how much the arteries are dilated at the peak of blood pressure but that must be correlated with the blood pressure measurements taken with a traditional instrument.
Such devices have just started to appear and at the first glance I have believed that this is one of them. This watch can be useful too, but it is not applicable for continuous monitoring.

I think the ability to pay a monthly fee, as an individual, to sponsor research would be great. But if you allow the publishers to continue to be the middleman, they will continue to be in power and will take most of the cut. I would not buy such a product, on principle.
The authors and reviewers are the ones that provide the vast majority of the value. So the monetary (and social) reward structure should be centered on them. The platform facilitating this would need funding too, but their cut should be more akin to a payment processor, say 2-5%. So more like Patreon than Spotify.

Err I read TFA...Just read the top comments on this HN post to see ease of use is absolutely key to why folk use it.

My perspective is from the University side of things so can only speak for that rather than from the perspective of users who do not have access to the content at all.

I've spoken to users who workflow consists of googling the article title to get the DOI, then putting that DOI into Scihub to get the PDF, without even going near the University's library system.
Most of the time the Library actually has an electronic copy, but the process to get them, even with SSO, is laborious and confusing. Just look at the SSO login screens for different publishers sites : some say 'sign in with single sign on', others say 'institutional login', or 'Shibboleth login' etc. How are University users expected to jump through these hoops when the can search for the title or DOI and get the PDF instantly?

I don't see a moral dilemma. The journals don't pay anything for the research that they publish. In fact, they paywall research that is often funded by the public.
vr is just expensive and requires fairly high end hardware still. There are also are all kinds of software issues with it. like when i was playing a well known racing game, very often the camera would be somewhere other than the driver's seat. And those are the kind of games that really are quite heavy on vr adoption and are the natural fit for this type of control.

many games do not naturally lend themself to vr, and by those i mean the most popular genres, like fps, rpg, action-adventure. Basically every game that requires your feet to move about in a virtual world. I don't think it is suitable for strategy or management games either. So that leaves simulation, racing and some very old genres like on-rails-shooters. which is a sizeable market, but not the mainstream gaming market.

Matlab gives you these semantics by default. IMO, it's a big reason why it has been so successful with non-CS programmers. Mutation is often more intuitive, but as long as you break your code into functions, you automatically limit the scope of mutability bugs that can occur.
Sounds really cool. Do you also have NS records for all of those? or just in case you want to switch-over? (can you actually hold a domain on multiple registrars?)
I'm sure you mean wel, and as I said before, like you, I want to believe. The difference between us seems to be you live in a fictional world where nuclear waste was stored in very safe places underground, vitrified into glass with a 10k lifespan, and dealt with very responsibly throughout the lifecyle.

I live in a country where power-plants were built by typical contract builders using sub-spec concrete that is cracking, where all nuclear waste is stored above ground near densly populated areas, where young activists (luckily without malafide intentions) find to their surprise they could just walk into supposedly military protected nuclear plants, where first 55.000 barrels nuclear waste were just dumped of the coast, where the rest of the stuff is in corroding barrels filled not with 10Ky Glass but with tar and concrete, where this deterioration was kept secret for years, and once it came to light resealing it in inox barrels is considered too expensive, where nuclear plants that have failures several times a year because of malpractice during construction and aging installations are kept open with permits issued by administrations and politicians in charge that pass though the revolving doors of the plant's exploiter right into plushy 'consulting' seats, ...

I wish my country was the exception. A rogue state in the very heart of Western Europe. Sadly, it is not. Humans will be humans, with all their vices and fallacies. Humans as a species just can not handle the responsibilities of this type of systems (significant and high short exploitation benefits resulting in extreme long term very costly mitigation commitments, low probability failure modes but with extreme potential impacts).

You imply that there is no alternative. That it is either nuclear or browncoal. This is not true. Germany is the largest net exporter of electric energy in the European grid. Net export amounted to 45.6 TWh in 2018. In that year 72.1 TWh was produced from nuclear power, so almost two thirds of nuclear power was exported). The advances in and deployment of Solar and Wind power have lead to a significant reduction in the use of coal especially starting the second half of 2019. There is no impact on nuclear because nuclear plants unlike coal and gas can not be easily shut down and restarted at will.

Energy is just too cheap by far, so we just continue to waste it like there is no tomorrow. Any gains we make in efficiency, we just take as a bonus and immediatly compensate for by consuming more (cfr. Jevons paradox). Sadly, a neoliberal market economy can never discover the solution of moderation or abstinence, as it is purely driven by privatized marginal profit. It is systemically outside of its potential.
Yes, the cameras are all around, but no, they aren’t spying on you, why should they? Most video just gets deleted unless some event happened, they don’t even archive it.

I guess we could get rid of all the cameras and have everyone walk around with blind folds so they can respect everyone else’s privacy from being seen, but it seems like a net negative in my book.

That's exactly his/her point.

To a techie it's obvious what it means, but if the code runs on some hardware that ends up killing people for real and the code gets inspected during discovery, having words like that could be a liability since jurors are less likely to understand the technical meaning.

The McDonnell Douglas leadership seems to have put business ahead of engineering (and safety) at Boeing (from other pieces I've read). There are at present just two manufacturers of big planes in the world (China may have a third soon I believe) so it would be terrible for airline safety/efficiency if Boeing did go bankrupt (which is still unlikely) and left just one company with no competition. I think what we should all hope for is a return to Boeing's engineering-centered roots. There are tens of thousands of people who work hard at Boeing, do incredibly difficult work and take justifiable pride in the amazing planes they build. It's a shame that some bad leadership has led to these tragically avoidable crashes. As disturbing and infuriating as these messages are, I believe Boeing if it is once again engineer-lead can get back to strong form and that's what we should all hope for.
> Given Boeing’s proven track record, you could potentially speculate that the comments are actually in reference to some serious failure

Read the whole sentence. Boeing does have a proven track record of serious failures, negligence, coverups... If you were inclined to speculate, you could speculate that this comment is in reference to some sort of serious issue that eventually made it into the production model. However the article doesn’t substantiate that implication (and it is only an implication).

The author of the article clearly wants you to come away from reading it with a diminished impression of Boeing. They have a clear profit incentive to make the article as outrageous as possible. A lot of people (myself included) already have a pretty poor opinion of Boeing, and I’d bet a lot of people who clicked on the article would be inclined to believe any negative claims made against them. The dangers of Fake News are often discussed on HN, and this is exactly the sort of situation where it is most important to exercise critical thinking.

That quote, without context, doesn’t reveal any meaningful information at all. I presume I’m getting downvoted because people think I’m defending Boeing, which I haven’t done once. I’m simply pointing out the danger of getting sucked in by outrage journalism, especially when it plays into your preconceived notions (no matter how well founded they are).
> So most of the time I had to just guess the dose of drugs to be given.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Just a question: isn't this the doctor's Job?

My mother suffered from high blood pressure for the past 50 years, we have this running in the family, her father died from a stroke, I have high blood pressure too. She also had a few serious other health problems (she took tuberculosis from a patient - she used to be a nurse - had a cardiac infection and an almost permanent renal insufficiency) and the drugs she had to take were incompatible with blood pressure drugs, but she always solved because she was under continuous medical check and the doctor adjusted the doses on a weekly bases, sometimes even daily.
> the statement becomes absurdly false even though the logic remains identical: persons in debt are 8 times more likely to be suicidal

Why do you think this is absurd? How are you defining "suicidal"?

There's good reasons why reputable organisations involved in suicide prevention recognise financial difficulty as a risk factor (one of many) for suicide.

Because Boeing is a company of national importance and also a monopoly on home turf, vital to the US security and economy so they're untouchable in the US.

Only per mile. Per journey it's the most dangerous transport typically used. Per hour it's about average.

This doesn't matter if you have to make a specific trip (the number of miles is fixed), but that's not always the case. Whatever you do, don't walk, that seems to be the most dangerous common mode of transportation (unless motorcycles are common).

When I was a student in engineer school in France, I had access to a lot of paper through our school subscription. I was still using Sci-Hub all the time because just copy-pasting a DOI or a paper title and getting the PDF was so much better than all the other website which had all clunky and broken login procedure, and god awful UI/UX (understanding how to download the PDF was sometimes more of a challenge than understanding the paper itself...).
I have not yet done a complete export of my workspace. I do however often export specific databases, notes, etc.

My post describes how I use it to draft my blog posts, where I also use the Markdown export feature. The code blocks are fine and within the same file, so I am not sure what you mean there.

Images are not ideal, but I don't know how it could be done much better. Everything is exported into a .zip and the images are also there.

Admittedly, my long term hope for a reliable and automated way of backing up everything relies on the API. Their promise that it will be released soon is a little awkward by now, but I am sure that it will come eventually. I don't think its true that it is already a year since they first said it would be here soon.
