The first illustration shows how this works in tmux.
The illustration first has a split in left and right half (vertical split?) and then a split in top and bottom (horizontal split?) of each of the halves. So if you resize one of the panes vertically, it only affects the other pane in the same half of the window, while if you resize horizontally all the panes will be resized. Basically vertical resizing only resizes the inner split, while horizontal resizing resizes the outer split.

It seems Zellij somehow makes the order of the splits irrelevant.

Hmm, I ran into the same issue too whereby I had a manual step to join the computer to the domain. I only had one computer to join, so I couldn't use anything like a real secrets solution, but I also didn't want the password to be in the Ansible files.

Having an OU that computers are provisioned in, and then moved out of later on would have help me a lot.

Yeah, that was really not expected and only found via space probes. That's why you see gliders for landing in many of the early Mars mission concepts but not in the newer ones.

Actually the atmosphere is too thin for full gliding or parashute landing but too thick to ignore it like we can on the Moon.

Still twice the Moons gravity with no atmospheric breaking at all would also suck I guess.

It actually sounds like your answer is more bias-based, because your intuition is more wrong here. There is data from the 2020 Stack Overflow survey[0] indicating a significant lead for devs who use Rust and continue to want to develop in it, vs. Go. 86.1% Rust vs. 62.3% Go.

So you're assuming you're lucky enough to get a fairly high paying job (for 2002) straight out of school within walking distance of your mum's house, first job you applied for too? The rent is tiny, the expenses seem really low too.

For comparison my first job which required a uni degree and was in central london in 2003 was £18k a year. Rent on a bedsit was £520 a month, transport was £120 a month, student loan £59 a month, leaving £100 a week for food, bills (internet, electricity, tv, council tax, laundry+dry cleaning, etc), travel to see families, etc

It's a great way of showing the massive leg-up that people who have parents living in the London commuter-belt get though.

I teach at the university level and this is what I have done with my exams. Everything is open book and in my experience there is no difference in the average exam score between open book online and closed (or open) book in person. It is also way easier for me to not have to worry about who is cheating and where everyone is looking (I also don't like the idea of forcing students to turn on their webcams).
The allure of the iPad is that it's not macOS. It opens instantly, apps can't screw the system up ever (at worst you delete the app and re-install it), everything is neatly sandboxed, the UI is optimized for touch, etc.

And iPad with macOS would be unusable as a tablet with regular mac apps (macOS requires more precision control and has smaller targets), and at best would be a way to get a Mac to hook to a monitor and use with a mouse and keyboard. But you can already get a Mini for half the price, or an Air that also comes with a keyboard. So what exactly do you gain? Especially if they also come up with a M1 Macbook (no Air/Pro, the small version).

What Apple could do however, is further improve iPad OS multitasking and windowing use to make it better for multi-app workflows.

Already basic multitasking, window-tiling, drag and drop, and file Finder support, and USB-C have improved it dramatically for such purposes.

That said, Final Cut Pro, Logic, XCode and a Terminal would be nice additions...

Bingo. If you discard my resume because I refuse to badmouth a previous employer in an interview then that's just a sign that I'd probably rather not work for you.

And as other people mentioned, especially in an interview where you're being intensely judged and have to give second thought to everything you say, I'm not about to give anything other than a neutral answer that's supposed to appease most people.
Germans are probably more successful at saving! I do think though that if you asked “is it important to have a well paying job” or “important to retire rich” I think more would agree in the US (although few would succeed). I don’t have any numbers for this hypothetical interview question though.

> Doesn't Eclipse feel a bit dated to you ?

I wonder what you'd say about the command line. The interface has not changed for like 40y+.

I 1st started using eclipse in 2006 or so, while writing some plugins (post compilation byte code editing) in 2003-2004. The UI has been updated somewhat since, not drastically, though. I've got pretty decent understanding how it works internally and what functionality is available.

Truth be told, updating the UI just to look modern might find some fans but to many it'd make it less usable for no good reason. For instance I don't want my hand drill to feature an OLED display, coupled with bluetooth just b/c it's cool and dandy.

Configuration language seems to be a hot topic at HN today, as every day. "Don't use X, use Y instead" has spawned this thread with everybody putting in their favorite configuration language in the hat for consideration. Lets list the ones that have appeared so far:

YAML, TOML, Lisp, Dhall, JSON, EDN, JSON5, HOCON, Lua, HCL, XML, HJSON, Starlark, strict yaml

About a third of which I'd never heard of. And because I can't help myself (the dogpile is so enticing!), I have to say that the one that I'm most interested in is: Dhall.
I think JSON would be perfect if it a) allowed comments, and b) had multi-line strings.

It has exactly five data types, each with very clear and distinct notation that nests consistently (the top level isn't somehow "special" and there's no messing with significant whitespace). Only two collection types: keyed, and unkeyed. In some sense it feels like the apotheosis of untyped data-modeling.

> One part of a solution to this problem is to use relative CSS units. Avoid hard breakpoints whenever possible. Only break columns into rows when there is no more space left.

While the web still lacks in certain areas to accomplish this with CSS, there are many new techniques with grid and flex that allow very little use of media queries to reflow the content.

When using break points, or media queries, I don't think you should abide to a constant set. While relative units might solve certain situations, it's not a complete solution.

Using constant set of breakpoint sizes is what causes these bizarre jumps from a "wow this is a very stretched out mobile site." By using grid and flex and things like auto-fit, minmax(), etc will get you part of the way today. After you still need to use breakpoints to handle edge cases. These should always be set only at the point they are actually needed, not a fixed "this how wide phones kind of are." This way when the page is resized you have a fluid adjustment of content that only reflows automatically (with grid and flex) and at strategic breakpoints for edge cases. So regardless of the device it will flow more smoothly according to your site's content, rather than just 5 different screens (breakpoints).
I had two take aways from this. Work as hard as you can on fixing this:
> I have trouble focusing, especially paying attention to details. I also forget things all the time

I can’t think of a single job or career where attention to detail makes a huge difference. It is what separates the A players from B players. Can you get employment if don’t have those skills? Sure, but I think you will see huge returns if you focus on improving in those areas.

The second thing is that you seem to put a lot of credence in intelligence. To me, high IQ is just a parlor trick. It might help to impress people off the bat but nothing will be more beneficial to employers than your high work ethic. It sounds like you have that. I’m not sure what it is like in your country but I would recommend casting a wide net in terms of first jobs. You can find ways to add value and mold your career from there.

Across three different commercial, business-grade and feature laden password managers, I've always wondered why none of them offered a solution to this. Perhaps because it could encourage what is effectively a bad security practice/habit?

It's a smart move by Google, provided devs/engineers set it up, too; it's yet another feature to maintain browser market share dominance.
Or, one could embed Chez Scheme, the compiler of which is like 800 kB in size and compiles stuff very quickly.
It's not, but I (as the parent has pointed out) find it astounding that salaries are so low compared to the US. Not necessarily because of absolute value of the salary, but because of the relative value to the biz people work in.

AFAIK, SaaS companies aren't charging demonstrably less for their applications in the EU than they are in the US. So the ratio from development to commercial value in the EU is significantly higher.

In other words, management/founders/investments/equity holders should be far more profitable in the EU and its to the detriment of the individual engineer. Income inequality is therefore in theory more exacerbated.
While I'm one of the people that wants macOS on iPadOS, the sentiment that "maybe Apple doesn't realize there's a market for macOS in an iPad form factor" is silly.

The iPad is a play for innovators dilemma-style disruption from the bottom, and that possibility diminishes if you allow macOS on iPads. The reason the full Photoshop can't run on iPadOS is because iOS doesn't allow that kind of software to run. It only allows "democratized" software (the bottom) that's easy to run, install, and uninstall, and won't interfere with battery, etc... It's a different software model than we use on macOS. It's better on some ways, but it's clearly worse in others. Apple is still betting that there's value in this alternative software model, and it's so consistent with Apple's modus operandi of control, that I'm willing to bet they'll take this battle to their grave (you'll never get an unlocked iPad, ever).

I think a more fruitful approach with Apple is pushing them to innovate more with macOS and the Mac. Tell them to make more exciting hardware, stop having their laptops designed by the industrial-engineering B-team. Stop porting iOS-paradigm OS features that don't make sense on the Mac. Instead create more real innovative desktop-class features like Exposé. You can also keep promoting this iPadOS thing at the same time. But sorry Apple, you're never going to transition the content creators to iPadOS. It's just not going to happen ever because the computing model just doesn't work for that kind of work. The best bet is to get back to working hard on the Mac and macOS.

Isn't that a measure of how often words are searched? Everyone knows what a proctologist is, and no one wants to learn any more about them than they absolutely have to learn. A comedic trope is for a sadistic doctor to brutally thrust his hand into a nitrile glove and ask if some poor sap is ready for his exam. On the other hand, those with college degrees (a minority of the population) have heard the word "proctor" on eight different occasions in their entire lives.
There are so utterly terrible codebases, on which we should pull the plug.

But my experience is that even not-that-bad code bases will be seen as bad by new developers, solely because of their complexity (mostly inherent in this case). The thing is, programs grow continuously and they will pick up on complexity, and most software out there is simply beyond human understanding with every intricacy of it. And developer egos routinely say that the code is bad, instead of saying that they don’t understand the context of this and that decision.
Oh, ha, yeah, no question there.
A few years back, I had a procedure that involved twilight sedation. That means you're aware of the experience while it's happening, but have no memory of it afterwards.

I thought about this exact thought experiment constantly leading up to the day of the procedure.

It's a fascinating philosophical question. Did I experience the pain of the procedure? A past me before the procedure agreed to commit some future me to pain. During the procedure, that me then certainly experienced pain. But the hypnotic drug washed that memory away leaving a third me that had the benefits of the procedure but no memory of the pain.

So what is the moral calculus to perform when signing your future self up to pain that your future future self will forget?

Signal founder claims to have hacked cellebrite
Panpsychism is crazy, but it’s also most probably true
"Common sense tells us that only living things have an inner life. Rabbits and tigers and mice have feelings, sensations and experiences; tables and rocks and molecules do not. Panpsychists deny this datum of common sense. According to panpsychism, the smallest bits of matter – things such as electrons and quarks – have very basic kinds of experience; an electron has an inner life."
This is a tough one for me. Feels a little tit-for-tat. I don't support cellebrite. But seems like cellebrite was off the radar for Signal until it recently added Signal support. Beyond advertising I'm not sure what this all accomplishes - probably a better cellebrite product.

I'd say if Signal wanted to have an impact then silently adding support that breaks cellebrite would be more effective.
