Keeping docs and code as close together as possible. Certainly same repo. But for instance one of pythons greatest feature is docstrings. Which has encouraged documentation in the code. Other than that document in comments. And things like openapi and sphinx to generate docs from code.

Low level docs such as foo() does x and raises error when y should be expressed as unit tests.

External to code docs should be limited to things like deployment process.design docs (part of point of which is their history should be versioned not changed.
> No, you normally want that program to execute efficiently enough to do its required job

but... the "required job" is to go as fast as possible - in two ways :

1/ You must go faster than your competitors. Else people will switch, your software will get bad reviews, etc.

2/ you must go fast enough for anything that people will throw at you. And, in many cases, people can throw arbitrarily large problems to your program, and telling them "sorry but it will take 1 hour to process your 2TB dataset" just won't cut it at all. And even when you manage to cut it, then people come at you like "now can this run on a raspberry pi?"

Take for instance image processing software, audio or multimedia software... they will never be fast enough, and there is always an use case where getting a 1% perf improvement will allow a project to make instead of break (especially when working with uncompromising artists).
Yes, and the assets passed down to the next generation would also be spent, thus further improving the economy.
regarding going on after Goscinny's death, i just now read this passage in "The Complete Guide to Asterix" (p.21): "Following the death of his working partner of the last twenty-six years, Albert Uderzo did not have th eheart to complete Asterix in Belgium. Dargaud [publishing partner] responded by taking him to court and forcing him to draw the book. Uderzo had no choice. He completed the album, but appealed against the court's decision. Ironically, the appeal court found in his favour - but by then the books were already in the shops."
I think we can forgive him (even for the books that followed).
> However using a &nbsp; in your brand name would likely be a better way to handle this, and makes actual semantic sense in your html. It's also coincidently more robust to changes in your layouts.

I don't see how Brand&nbsp;Name is any more semantic than <div class="no-line-breaks"> Brand Name </div> though. Either way, I can't see how there's a general solution for that example.

- Maybe for another heading, the break in the middle of the brand name will look better because otherwise the previous line would contain only a single word.

- Or the &nbsp; approach works okay for short brand names but not very long ones (e.g. Department&nbsp;for&nbsp;Work&nbsp;and&nbsp;Pensions).

- Or maybe for one heading we want a break only because otherwise the brand name is going to overlap with the eyes of a person in a background photo.

CSS doesn't even have anything built in to do nice looking justified paragraphs yet (like LaTeX has), let alone simple stuff like dealing with text widows and text orphans.

You could conceivably come up with a general algorithm that encodes some of the design heuristics above but that's in the realms of automating graphic design and there's always going to be exceptions.

My point is, there's no clean separation between content/data and styling if you want your data presented in a very specific way. For heavily designed pages, this is underscored by it always being unavoidable that you'll end up modify the text content because you want it to look more presentable e.g. changing a heading so it to fits in a tight space or line breaks in a pleasing way.

Just tried this out, really cool concept and something we want at our 100% remote company. Sadly it didn't work out for us on the first test.

Here's our experience in case it's helpful:

Signup:

- There's no concept of user provisioning or inviting users, so when I first signed up and started a session in slack everyone was a little confused about if they needed to individually sign up or if they should be expecting an invite to their corp email.

- I'd also like some degree of user management at a corp level if for no other reaosn consolidated billing and basic auditing.

Screensharing:

- One of our cofounders is on linux and tried to do a screenshare. He has 3 monitors hooked up and even though screen asked him which monitor to share, it still shared all 3 at once.

- On my side from a macbook as a viewer the app wedged all 3 of his monitors into view on my tiny 13" monitor and this completely destroyed the aspect ratio of each of his monitors (ha, it's really hard to write this without using the word screen), also the resolution was super low, likely because one of his monitors was showing a twitch video and the screen app was trying to keep up.

- I tried zooming in on the one monitor where he had code open and it was super pixelated.

- I tried drawing and there was a very noticeable delay for both of us even though we're both on high speed connections.

- I tried to take screenshots of all this but every screenshot I took just resulted in a grey image (not sure if screen intentionally blocks screenshots but they're pretty important for us).

...sadly there was no way for us to do anything like remote debugging under these conditions. Will keep an eye out for updates since this is something we really want!

It's adding a degree of separation in the same way that saying water instead of dihydrogen monoxide adds a degree of separation between the name and knowledge of chemistry.

This is still based on the compute modules, so you're going to have the same tradeoffs.

These are interesting ideas, but until the compute modules start having more on board RAM, you'd be much better off working with a few RPi 4's. They will be faster (1Gbps ethernet, more RAM), and cheaper since you only need a gigabit switch to connect them together, not a custom carrier board.

If the compute modules start to get more powerful, then having to deal with only one power supply and ethernet uplink would be nice. It's a very appealing idea. But, you're going to almost always have a better experience with a bunch of standard RPis.
While looking for comics for my kids at the local library, I was very happily surprised to find how Tintin-esque the Donald Duck Adventures were.
This seems worse for the markdown use case. The tags are distracting, and arbitrary use cases (like github readmes, or in browser previews) need to run JS code to render it, which probably spits out HTML specific output and requires all renderers to pull in the web stack.

Compare that to markdown, where in the worst case, the .md file is readable as a doc in isolation.
You should also change the title to be less misleading. They said they're changing the default quality, not completely limiting quality.

I think most landlords are wealthy people who are easily placed to weather this financial crisis.

By definition if you are wealthy enough to own property beyond one house then you’re wealthy enough to survive this.

And if you can’t afford to, then sell it and suffer like all the other real business owners are suffering.

Why should landlords be a protected species in all this?
We like to think so :)

Embroidered Uniform Guard

Diet is most probably a giant red herring in all this.

There's just no "right diet" if you want to avoid disease mutation. Mad Cow Disease, Salmonella, Avian Flu, Swine Flu, all of those and more have (and continue to) cross-infect our species from standard western diets. Several major western religions ban pork for "uncleanliness"/prone-to-disease, for what were once very good historical reasons.

Even if this virus did have something to do with diet, the only rational response is to cut way back on all meat, not just "weird" meat to a Western view, because it isn't just "rodents" or "ugly animals" that mutate these sorts of virus, because we've seen it with pigs, chickens, cows, etc. Probably no one wants mandatory veganism, but that's nearly the only "safe" option if you want to demand we track regional diets. (Even then you get things like salmonella cross-infections from fertilizers used in vegetable farming. There's no 100% safe diet. Life, uh, finds a way.)
This is what we do. Store a 1st party httponly secure cookie jwt representing the user, then grab any extra data from the backend. Or just something like session cookie but persist it.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is one of the ways ad tracking tries to rebuild a universal identifier like the old urchin module. Might not be as easy as a cname but those might get blocked. It's always a game of cat and mouse. Could place uuid as 1st party httponly cookie. maybe uuid is domain scoped. then 'echo out' so accessible by 3rd party JS. Like a hash, one would need to know the global pooled uuid already and then combined with knowable domain could tie that uuid into the 2nd party tracking pool.

There's so many businesses that legitimately operate on tight margins, it's kinda the point of capitalism. While this will hit some legitimately badly run businesses, it will also hit lots of well run businesses that simply can't reduce their overheads that quickly.

There's something amusingly cyclical about a blade server architecture for Kubernetes. The tech comes out of a whole movement towards combining commodity machines using clever software instead of buying specialist hardware, but then adds the specialist hardware back in.

Some deeper integration between Kubernetes and the hardware (acceleration/offload ASICs maybe), branding of k8s + this hardware as a unified product, and this would literally just be a mainframe. Which is not a terrible idea! Maybe Kubernetes is the mainframe operating system of the future.
Subscribe if that annoys you that much.
It's quite complex, and (though certainly neither is an expert) the words of Cuomo and Trump overlap to a considerable degree. Economic damage absolutely will kill people--a lot of people.

Total lockdown probably will save some people, but it's hard to really know at this point. It may turn out that most people are going to get the virus, and that the number who die will actually turn out to be fairly invariant with respect to whatever actions governments take.

Even if we had a truly brilliant scientist who had all of the information that's presently known, I doubt the call would be obvious. Just too many unknowns.
Is Docbook dead?

I see it mentioned here only as an output format, between HTML and PDF, which sounds strange because I don't know any way to view it without first converting it to something like HTML or PDF.

Docbook is a bit verbose, but highly semantic. I always liked the idea of Docbook, though I could never get it to work well. At best, you waste a lot of time installing and configuring a big slow chain of programs to get ugly HTML or PDF that's virtually impossible to adapt to the style of your webpage or book.

Today the docbook.org "Tools" tab only points to a couple of XSLT stylesheets, so it looks like they haven't improved since last I tried. It's one of those technologies that I say "I should learn that...", look at for a couple days, and then say "Maybe I'll check back in 5 or 10 years." Like XSLT.
That assumes you have absolutely zero access to groceries for those 14-21 days. But there are still delivery services and neighbors. In Germany, city governments have actually delivered food to those quarantined.
Sorry about that!

Looks like a bug in our Linux multi-monitor code. I'm going to look into this right now! It’s been a while since we touched that code, and it’s likely that bugs may have crept in since then.

Also, corp level user management is something we’ve got in the works, but we wanted to get the product out so that people could start using it, and then add admin tools on top of that. For instance, if you’re on G Suite, everyone should be able to OAuth in. But I hear you on the need for better tooling around users.

Were you able to try screen sharing from your Mac to his Linux computer?

You can’t sell if no one is buying and if it’s anything like some stories I’ve heard, some people are doing interest only loans on houses

You do not need to use _all_ the features provided by Asciidoc.

If you want to compare MD and Asciidoc side by side, go here[1]. Which one looks more complicated?

Now, regarding the table syntax, yes, I agree, it is complicated and that's because tables are complicated. In markdown you don't even have tables, so it's not really fair to say "look at the table syntax in asciidoc WTF, what a mess!".

They tend to have different jokes in different languages. If you can read more than one language, then read Asterix in all of them for which there are translations (or originals).
I was playing it safe and assuming a family adding one more room to a multi-room house. The 10% is on the low side. Where I live, it's an extra $100,000 between a 3 bedroom house and a 4 bedroom (or adding a bonus room), and then bump that up another $50,000 for the total cost after mortgage interest, utilities, etc. But nobody (that goes into an office) seems to want to believe it costs $150,000 to work from home (but then you save some on commute costs, so there's that). My manager actually made a comment about how it must be nice to save money by working from home (commute costs). I laughed.

Nostalgic blast from the past, Asterix and Obelix was some of my favorite comic books as a kid.

Surprised that you can find full length Asterix films on YouTube, with the first one released over 50 years ago and the latest just released last year, that's pretty rare longevity for kids comic book characters to have lasted through multiple generations of kids. It's one of the few I can remember that my parents used to read as kids as well.

Immunity to coronaviruses does tend to fall within a year or so, but this is believed due to immune memory rather than viral mutation (coronaviruses have a modest mutation rate). This is a different mechanism than influenza. Subsequent reinfections are believed to be mild. A vaccine would provoke a longer immune memory by way of an adjuvant. Discussion of this in the TWIV podcast:

I always felt a little queasy installing a .kext from some random foreign-language websites (be it FTDI, or Alfa drivers, or even RealTek updates).

That's exactly what the article is talking about. "Let the parent lay its children out" means "use layout components in the parent". This is what this `Stack` component is: probably a flex container.

Security should be secondary. I know that sounds wrong. And that’s not an absolute, sometimes security comes first. But in general, everyone is trying to get stuff done and security gets in the way. My passwords get in the way of using my devices. My keys gets in the way of coming home.

That’s different from saying “security should be an afterthought”. Security is something you should consider consciously and prioritize against your other goals.

Putting security first is kind of weird if you think about it. Imagine building a house and prioritizing the locks.

I think the answer is to give up on wanting things to be presented in a specific way. The user may want, or need, for it to be presented a different way anyway. So just provide the content and let the user agent lay it out as the user needs or wants it.
But the glossary strongly implies that there's no meaning to "cohabitate" beyond "have sex", which I find very strange. There is not a single suggestion that "cohabitation" says anything about where you live or with whom.

And I'm asking why "have sex" needs to be euphemised in the glosses for coire / coitus / commiscor / concumbo / concubitus, when it doesn't for concarnatio / commisco / concubitalis / conjugatio / etc. etc. etc.
