It's not syntax, but rather a third-party macro[0], which it should be noted is inspired by a rather horrible feature of the same name in javascript. Though I guess the devil would be in the details.

I think that is perfectly correct approach, it should not be allowed to steal someone's profit.

Although I am a bit surprised since this law also applies to movies that are not profitable. In such cases producers should be happy that someone wants to give access to them despite loosing money while doing it.

One notable example of such unprofitable movie is "Return of the Jedi", which, after 40 years, has not provided any net income. Not even one cent. I am really impressed by heroism of all those movie producers that keep working so hard even though they earn nothing.

Or maybe it is not true that those movies are not profitable, maybe, for some strange reason, law enforcement is able to track all those pesky pirates, fish them from New Zealand hideaways, but is and was not able to retrieve a single tax dollar from movie studios for the past 70 years.

That's a puzzle which is apparently somehow missed by venerable members of US Congress and Senate.

Thanks for your attention, glad someone here still remember our history, TerarkDB is now FULLY open source with `succinct data structures`.

Here's the reasons:
1. Our `all-in-one` docs are still under writing, we will cover that part later.
2. For the performance part, we are now showing real-world cases, not a well-designed benchmark.(We selected the best result to show our work few years ago, don't want to do it anymore)
3. About why TerarkDB is faster than RocksDB will be explained in our `all-in-one docs` in one week, and most of the reasons are not magic, just engineering efforts

Thanks again for your remembering us.

Apple just didn't adapt the old IBM PC legacy BIOS after switching to Intel in 2005. [1] Instead, they adapted Intel's EFI [2] which is meant to replace the legacy BIOS. Now you could argue why Apple didn't provide legacy BIOS support like other motherboard manufacturers do today. [3] But I think it conforms to Apple's thinking to not adapt old or unnecessary technology in the first place, and fairly quickly dropping support for older technology. This can be seen in Apple's hardware decisions by being one of the first companies to use USB in the first iMac in the late 90s, dropping disk drives and other ports, etc. and in their software decisions by dropping old APIs or 32-bit fairly quickly.

2: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Extensible_Firmware_In...

There's OSRM and a very good commercial routing engine from Graphopper. I believe they also offer the core features as an opensource Java routing server. For cycling it has three separate profiles favouring one route over the other and two profiles for walking and hiking. The commercial version allows multi routing and route optimisation. You give it a fleet of vehicles and a number of POIs for them to visit and it splits the work between vehicles and optimally routes them.

I find this project quite interesting because sklearn has a good general design including data transformations and it does make sense to provide compatible functionality for Go.

Feature engineering in general is a hot topic and especially if features are not simple hard-coded transformations but rather can be learned from data. For example, I developed a toolkit intended for combining feature engineering and ML:

https://github.com/asavinov/lambdo - Feature engineering and machine learning: together at last!

(Currently, it is not actively developed and the focus is moved to a similar project - https://github.com/asavinov/prosto - also aimed at data preprocessing and feature engineering)

> AFAIK Spanish arrived in California around 16th Century,

Arrived in? Sure, mostly sailing around the coast and transitory land expeditions. So did the British in North America, on both coasts.

But as for establishing any kind of durable colonies (e.g., “California” as more than a name on a map), that came later, and well after British colonies like Virginia were established, especially in the case of Alta California.

The idea that California was some kind of established European colony earlier than British colonization of North America is what I was taking issue with.

Agree. The transformation of software into ever-smaller and more specialised 'ticketing' is as much a result of managerialism encroaching in. Basecamp have this bit in their Shape Up handbook about responsibility and how it affects their approach to software:

----------

Making teams responsible

Third, we give full responsibility to a small integrated team of designers and programmers. They define their own tasks, make adjustments to the scope, and work together to build vertical slices of the product one at a time. This is completely different from other methodologies, where managers chop up the work and programmers act like ticket-takers.

Together, these concepts form a virtuous circle. When teams are more autonomous, senior people can spend less time managing them. With less time spent on management, senior people can shape up better projects. When projects are better shaped, teams have clearer boundaries and so can work more autonomously.

Ok, V creator may have an huge ego. Evan Czaplicki (Elm creator) may have an even larger ego. The list goes on. Does it worth to do everything to castrate their ambition? They like to put the bar high. Higher than they can jump most likely but in the meanwhile they build something. Probably not exactly what they proposed to but way more than the ones that criticise them. Criticise with work not with nitpicking, from the outside it resembles envy. Time will certainly judge them and us also.

For whatever reason XFCE gets accused of looking ugly, but I tend to agree with you. It looks fine out of the box, better with some minor tweaking, and is fully themeable if you're into that sort of thing.

KDE always had a reputation for being a bit of a resource hog. Gnome 3 was a rewrite in Javascript, so no surprises there. I never personally used Unity, but it always felt a little annoying when I had to use it on other computers, probably due to the layout and corner gestures.

Thanks, incorporated your --no-gpg-sign suggestion. I think it's best to use a canonical author/committer as well. Ideally everyone would agree on something so tooling like commit linters (which check org email addresses or commit message formatting) can ignore it and different repos across at least a single org benefit from having the same root commit.
Before COVID, when travel was still a thing, I stayed at a hotel in St. Louis. There was a superbly comfortable and stylish bathrobe in the room which I quite enjoyed, and on the hanger was a note saying something like “Excellent robe isn’t it? Feel free to take it with you, we’ll add it to your bill no questions asked.”

I thought it was a fun take one the whole thing and had it not been for me not having any room in my luggage I would’ve taken it. If I recall correctly the note said it was somewhere in the $50-$60 range.
I'm looking forward to this. I use Telegram everyday to communicate with friends and family and Durov is giving me trust that he isn't going to ruin the app.

XFCE is a lightweight desktop environment that uses GTK. It has its own GTK engine, window manager (XFWM), and its own set of apps built on top of GTK... most of them much are faster than their Gnome counterparts.

Thunar is much faster than Nautilus, XFWM is faster than Mutter, XFCE panels are much faster than the Gnome Shell, XFCE GTK engine is much faster than Adwaita... and the list just goes on and on. The result is a really fast and responsive user experience, that will run fast even in low spec machines.

I am not a fan of the default panel layout and overall configuration, but XFCE panels are easy to configure as well as highly configurable. You can create as many panels you want, position them anywhere you want and put any elements on them... There's even a way to create a macOS-like global menu, although I don't recommend it.

This is the core attitude of every Bcasher -- they want complicated technical arguments requiring decades of distributed systems experience to be hashed out by clueless people on Reddit.

Slack/Zoom/Teams/Whatever Google is running now is mostly dictated by what the company uses for their email.

Pretty much no-one uses any of those for personal stuff, Slack does have some open-source project stuff in there.

FB Messenger seems to be highly siloed, I never use it and I know only one person who uses it as their main communication platform.

Whatsapp has reached critical mass in many countries outside of the US. People use it because everyone uses it - not because it's especially good in any way.

Signal, Matrix etc are for idealists, who have a future vision of what the platform will develop into in mind.

My personal favourite is Telegram. It has a good mix of bots, API, native clients and channel management tools.

Hey dude bro it's totally cool to deal over the phone mate, when you're a business. That's what businesses do. We can talk and shoot the shit and stuff bro. Email is for B2C, Phone is for B2B. Easy peasy bro.
Man I have a hard time dealing with comments like this, because people say this sort of thing and it is simply not true. When you get to brass tacks that's when all the other "necessary" expenses usually come up. Gotta have Netflix, gotta eat out once or twice a week, what is the point in life if you cannot consume products? What other ways are there to have fun?

My bills are 800 dollars a month, total. My rent is 400. I live 40 minutes from downtown of one of the largest cities in the US. Before this, they were 1200 dollars a month. I wanted to cut them so I found a way. I have everything I need, and I've got money saved in case of an emergency, I'm going to save my way into the upper middle class living this way, without a degree of any kind.

The trick is to repeat the following mantra: "bills are the devil." That's really all there is to it. Get a car with cash. If you don't have cash, save some cash by not spending all your money. A single person who can't live off 1200 bucks a month is mismanaging their finances. If you can't afford to live in San Francisco, that's not due to our economic system, it is due to how the city manages itself, and it's a way the city is telling you you aren't welcome there. Go somewhere where you can have a decent life.

The only real problem here is health insurance. I do not have it. The health insurance market has been absolutely destroyed by government intervention over the last decade. I remember when I could get a decent plan for 80 bucks a month and I thought that was expensive. It wasn't that long ago.

For families, I get that it is a lot tougher. Two incomes are a must nowadays. But historically, families encouraged their sons to establish themselves financially before having children, and communities that had children young or out of wedlock were usually impoverished. It has always been financially tough rearing children. You can't raise a family working the window at a fast food joint, and there was never a time when you could.

I don't think this is about consolidating the brand. They want to be P&G, but no-one remembers which products are P&G products, they each have their own brand. This is a portfolio approach I think. So they will have some economies of scale and be able to swing more capital behind the products that turn out the most successful
