This is moderately common for environments where you are pushing a lot of startup work into the dynamic linker and will be launching processes frequently. Loading shared libraries for example.

You have a parent process which uses dlopen() to load all the libraries you want to avoid re-linking. When you want to spawn a child, rather than exec() you dlopen() an object with your child's main() and call it. For the case where you have enough libraries this is much faster than an exec(), saving tens of seconds on every application launch if you have a really bad case of C++.

There some small surprises which become obvious with a little thought. You are responsible for everything that normally happens in your process before main() is called. ASLR is only done once per session. People rarely think to fix-up argv[] for ps and friends in the first version.
Shells should really use `vfork()` to exec, and `fork()` for subshells (maybe).
How James Patterson became the world’s best-selling author
Not sure how the authorities found out, but in the article it mentioned the cast member in Terrace house who was cyber bullied (which is ultimately why this law got passed I think).

I think the cyberbullies constantly dm’ed her with hateful words and there were at least 2 that were apprehended.

Anyways there’s stories about it on the internet you can read more about it.

ADHD affects your natural ability to make decisions and control your emotions. Has all kinds of health repercussions from overeating to unnecessary risk taking to difficult relationships with others.

Slack: Getting Past Burnout, Busywork, and the Myth of Total Efficiency

It's written by Tom DeMarco of Peopleware fame.
Yes. So much about the era is lost to the mists of time that Jason's documentary is really a valuable resource. I believe the full interviews are on the Internet Archive.

It was sort of a parallel world to the Internet and because it was basically hobbyists rather than universities, government, and various companies it was never really systematically documented at the time. And a lot never made it to the web. Although there are various books that touch on the BBS scene in various ways, various text files which Jason has also archives, and one or two contemporaneous magazines, I'm not even aware of any real written history per se.
Regularly being sweaty/dirty/exhausted from exertion and general outdoor shenanigans is probably a reasonable general description of my mental image.

But you can get a chunk of that just hitting the gym. Personally I find actually being out in nature and getting dirty while doing strenuous shit makes a difference WRT my vitality and vigor. An air-conditioned gym is still a largely sterile, low-risk comfort trap.
The shuttle is still an interesting science experiment in what it did teach us about reusability in space craft, failures included. At the time reliable booster recovery and reuse seemed unlikely and command module reuse seemed the best way to drive costs down. The shuttle was a good command module design for reuse based on available data at the time (even with all the design by committee compromises), but proved to be difficult and expensive to maintain/refit between missions.

Today we've seen incredible advances in booster recovery and reuse in part spurred by learnings from shuttle reuse including the learning about how expensive heat shield maintenance/refitting turned out to be on the shuttle.

(A bit of an aside, but ironically and sadly the Challenger disaster didn't "fail hard enough" to drive costs down or do much to reimagine the shuttle program: that problem was a dumb booster problem that had nothing to do with the shuttle directly and could have happened to any payload. (It was still terrible that it happened to that shuttle and its crew, specifically, of course.) It's curious to wonder if something more like the Columbia disaster, which did more reflect shuttle maintenance issues, may have had an interesting scientific impact if it had "switched places" in a different timeline.)

I think the fact that Americans have trouble understanding how one could express the full range of political ideology while still remaining civil and not bullying each other is part of the problem.

One can express any proposal for legislative or judicial course of action without demeaning the inherent humanity of another and resorting to profanity, lewdness,and hatred. Learning to express opinions in this way can help contribute to us recognizing ways to solve our mutual problems as a society,ans avoid people feeling so dehumanised that they harm themselves or others.

I do appreciate your concern though for preserving our ability to disagree and express any political belief without censure.
I did not call it legal cocaine, though I did compare the two, and I stand by that statement. Ritalin's mechanism for action is extremely similar to cocaine - it even competes for the same binding sites on neurons.

It's still a very useful therapeutic, and I strongly believe it should not be stigmatized. But parents absolutely do need to be educated about the sort of prescription drug this is.

I liken this somewhat to the use of opioids for pain control after surgery: they are a fantastic tool that I would certainly not want to forego. But I am grateful that we've become more intentional about educating people on some of the specific dangers around their use so that patients can be more aware. I'd like to see the same thing happen around the use of strong stimulants in children.

To me, "what a hashmap is" is just an extremely basic engineering concept. Your reference to "memorizing" (to refer to the topic you don't like) vs. "understanding" (to refer to the topic you do like) is value-laden and also suggests to me that you think a hashmap is more complicated than it actually is - it is truly just one step from understanding what a hash is.
I'm a citizen of the country I was born in, which I did not choose. I can leave the country physically, but that itself doesn't invalidate my citizenship, or my obligation to pay taxes.

So no, it's not at all "just like"

One of the most important concepts is that therapy is not car repairs, for a few reasons, primarily active participation and trust.

If one complains over the internet that therapy works like astrology, instead of actually talking to their therapist about this topic, then therapy is for them a waste of money, as it's clear that they have no participation and trust. Changing therapist - like I suggested - misses entirely the point, now I see.

Complaining that patient X went to therapy and didn't work and therefore therapy doesn't work is like complaining that a computer science degree is useless because developer X doesn't find a good job.

People is complex and treatment is complex as well. It's perfectly possible that even an unqualified person (e.g. the so-called "coaches") can improve a case, that qualified people didn't, for legitimate reasons. I actually do know at least one unqualified person who practices therapy, and I think they're able to help some cases, but that doesn't detract from qualified therapists.

On the other hand, there is a structure to human mind, and people who systematically studied it for years have tools that unqualified people generally don't have. One may not subscribe, say, to Freudian theories, but the relation with the parents is extremely relevant to one's development, and without knowledge and tools, the practicioner will likely stumble.
When you have obscene amounts of money, your perception of what is normal goes out the window.

I am mostly asking for evidence because I despise PHP, Ruby and Python -- I've worked extensively with the first two and dipped my toes in the third several times so it's not an uninformed opinion -- but I'd be open to recognize their historically positive value.

My beef with such technologies... is not with the technologies at all. It's with the people that can't let go and can't recognize that things do change (or they are simply afraid that they have to learn new skills; many programmers are very risk-averse and are very average Joes and Janes just wanting to make a living and they hate the idea of having to learn their entire careers -- not sure if that's "fine" but it obviously works well for millions of them out there).

Same as with these old non-GNU UNIX tools zealots; some of them still fiercely are against the GNU tools... meanwhile a lot of the DevOps people I know (and no small amount of programmers, yours truly included) already move about 75% of their scripting workloads either to the newer Rust variants (rg, exa, fd-find, tuc, and many others) or lightweight quick script-friendly languages like Nim or OCaml.

So my broader point was: "we should utilize nostalgia as a driving force much less than we do right now". Hence my question.

I'll agree with you that the alternative bleak early-dystopian future that PHP et.al. prevented would be horrid and -- again -- I'd recognize the role of the early free / open-source tech as a positive driving force of the IT history.
My situation mirrors yours pretty closely. I didn't recognize the symptoms or seek treatment until my mid-30's, but looking back I clearly had ADHD symptoms that became serious around high school.

In my case, my grades plummeted and I was unable to get into the colleges I wanted, or to graduate from an engineering program like I had wanted. I ended up graduating with a degree after 7 years and bouncing between 4 different colleges, and I've had a decently good career in Silicon Valley where being a generalist is a solid plus. But my dreams of being a (literal) astronaut were flushed down the toilet in the process.

Kids shouldn't have to sacrifice their dreams or their self-esteem because parents are unwilling or unable to seek proper treatment.

I do tiktok dances mostly, but weddings are fun too.

I grew up in the Southern Baptist church. These people have a serious persecution complex - in fact, they want to be persecuted because that makes them most like Jesus!

The guy feels "persecuted" because Google hasn't opened an office in Louisiana? Google hasn't opened offices in most states! Why haven't they opened offices in Louisiana? Who knows? Does that mean Google hates the South? Well, if so then why do they have offices in Atlanta? Last I checked, Atlanta is still in the US South!

Like I said, this guy is fulfilling his religious need to feel persecuted and grasping at nonsense to justify their persecution complex.

Currently we use a repo's git information to create the link between code and documentation. We also support many-to-many connections so you could granularly choose lines of code to connect to documentation. But you make a good point! We could definitely do some work with AST parsers to select and connect specific functions/components to documentation.
Lightyear says its $263K solar-powered car will go into production this year
Yeah computing backtraces in a crashreporter is extremely similar to a debugger in that you need a lot of fudge-factor heuristics and fallback modes for known toolchain bugs or common corruptions.
That's basically the only paragraph of new information in the whole... well, let's call it what it is, a press release basically.

It is a thing to know. That they had a token checked into source code that probably shouldn't have been, and that the attacker somehow got access to the source code in a private github repo.

* yeah, we still don't know how. Which is kind of important. But figuring out how they got access to a private github repo is to some extent back on github, at least potentially...

* it to some extent points back to github (fairly or unfairly); so how did they get access to the source code you were supposed to be protecting?

* it certainly reminds us the readers why we don't put secrets in source code repos. (Of course, they ultimately need to be stored somewhere, and that somewhere can always be breached. But having them in as few places as possible and places designated specifically for secrets, we can make sure that things like a Github OAuth token for a Github integration doesn't give access to your deploy secrets...)

* Which again makes me wonder... "via a third-party integration with that repository"... WAS it an integration that didn't even need source code read access, but had it due to Github's terribly non-specific integration auth permissions? I would love some more attention to that github problem as a result of this hullaballo. I kind of can't believe fixing integration permissions granularity has been such a low priority for a fairly well-resourced github. I guess it doesn't sell more accounts... it just loses you some once it results in a vulnerability, if that becomes known.

My philosophy as an engineering manager is to actually pursue this outcome. If I treat them badly they will leave. If I treat them well and train them into better engineers then they will leave. It's like being a college football coach. Having your star athlete be drafted to the NFL is entirely the point.
What we feel like, in the short-run / immediate sense, can be hijacked. Or come from discord.

I can feel like never getting out of bed, getting a heroin fix, eating a pizza to myself with a case of beer, and repeating. I would also feel like shit, but those aren't mutually exclusive. I could also feel like hitting refresh on social media clients that make me anxious several times a day.

I think that intuitive compass generally works, as you allude to, but not always. But as time passes, I don't think I "feel like" doing anything specific - what I feel like is getting a dopamine spike, blood flowing, social validation, feeling good. All of what we choose is just a vehicle.
He says they're garbage and his solution instead is basically 'just talk it out bro'. Although I agree there are problems with Scrum and Agile, his solution is just idealistic and not helpful at all.
not gonna argue that a single binary is the ultimate deploy solution but running a django app is not that difficult (although i am biased cause i do that for a living).

I stream my hometown's hockey and baseball games, because I don't have a choice (I no longer live in the region), but it's a second-rate experience for one fundamental reason: buffering delays.

I routinely get messages in my group chat that are a reaction to something that hasn't yet happened on my screen. The group chat makes for fun communal viewing, so I don't want to leave it, but these messages undermine the experience.

I watch sports OTA whenever I can and if I lived in my hometown there's no doubt I'd choose to watch my local teams on cable. Live sports moving to streaming services is an unfortunate trend.

I think your decisions were reasonable, as is the opinion of the person you're responding to.

To be fair, even in its current form, it should be possible to operate this system with sqlite (i.e. no db server) and in-process celery workers (i.e. no rabbit MQ) if configured correctly, assuming they're not using MySQL-specific features in the app.

Using a message bus, a persistent data store behind a SQL interface, and a caching layer are all good design choices. I think the OP's concern is less with your particular implementations, and more with the principle of preventing operators from bringing their own preferred implementation of those interfaces to the table.

They mentioned that it makes sense because you were a standalone product, so stack portability was less of a concern. But as FOSS, you're opening yourself up to different standards on portability.

It requires some work on the maintainer to make the application tolerant to different fulfillments of the same interfaces. But it's good work. It usually results in cleaner separation of concerns between application logic and caching/message bus/persistence logic, for one. It also allows your app to serve a wider audience: for example, those who are locked-in to using Postgres/Kafka/Memcached.
The site has good content; I particularly like the “useful” section. I won’t even complain about the design too much like some people, but just to give some feedback I think that the font used on the subcategories, links, and descriptions is difficult to read, especially when in all caps (e.g., FOR SCIENCE).
It's a little hard to parse parts of that paragraph, but it sounds like the repo (presumably hosted on GitHub) had access tokens granted to third party integrations (similar to Heroku being granted access to GitHub on behalf of their mutual users).

Assuming that's true, it should be trivial for GitHub to tell them which third party integration the token was associated with.
I'm in this spot to. My backlog for programming projects I want to do alone is reaching steam backlog proportions. I also struggle to even keep a to-do list since new things are added daily for leisure activities.
I've lived in both countries, living with citizens of both countries, seeing popular media in both countries, long enough to know there's a massive difference in the degree of hateful and impolite behavior the average person is willing to engage in for any given topic of conversation, and that citizens of both countries seem to enjoy the same degree of freedom of expression of political views which diverge from the interests of those in power. The difference is how they choose to say things, and that has downstream effects of their ability to continue to view those they disagree with as humans worthy of at least some degree of compassion and respect.
No worries friend, I totally get where you are coming from. Thanks for letting me explain myself!
Fair question. Currently he is in the PR doghouse, which is why he went dark and skipped the Masters and PGA. There is a sense that those that join the LIV tour get tossed on the "naughty" list, but maybe that notion will go away. It will be interesting to see how the crowds treat him at the US Open this week.
This is like being rich and trying out homelessness for a month. No matter how authentic you try to make your experience, you know you can always go home at any time and in any real emergency you've got a lot more options than the average homeless person.

I would want to hear ideally from people who actually lived there and now live in other places. These are the people that know the truth about what it is like and also have a basis for comparison. A person of unknown journalistic integrity editing a series of interview of locals on his tax-break vacation who is incentivized by view counts isn't compelling.

Yikes, that's very much not consistent with my experience.

But I will admit that it's still much different in my 40s from say my late teens/early 20s. No amount of savagery in my mid-40s is going to make me the hornball that is my 19 year old self. That would probably require TRT.
Mine did not even mention the case of pollutants. He said heart problems or psychological problems.
I thought we were talking about helping the homeless here.
sure, there are tradeoffs to everything. Your points are valid, but so is the view point of OP potentially losing his partner for the rest of their life if sex is that important to them. TRT can provide many other benefits as well both physical and mental. Increased cancer risk is probably greatly reduced just by eating a proper diet and being physically active which being on TRT may motivate. As for taking it the rest of your life, its not a big deal, you can pin yourself once a week or get a pellet implanted that has to be replaced every 4 months. I just inject myself once a week, takes less than 5 minutes all in. My mental health & focus has vastly improved and i have more energy to actually play with my kids after work. My Dr. also monitors my blood work every 8 weeks and just due to this, my liver function is healthy after having elevated levels due to fatty liver for the last 15 years.
