Reading this and warp.dev's site [0], here's some stuff about Bash (and maybe other shells like ksh) people might find useful:

It has a "vi command mode" you can activate with `set -o vi`. It works exactly like you'd dream.

You can search your history with Ctrl-r. It's not "fuzzy" search, but it is "anywhere in the command" search

Vim's (and Neovim's) terminal let you manage the it like any other readonly buffer. You leave insert mode and you can jump around, copy, etc. as much as you like.

I bounced around for literally years between terminals, multiplexers, window managers, etc. Now I have `set -o vi` in my .bashrc and MacVim is my terminal (a close second is Vim in Kitty if you're on a Mac). I've had zero bugs with this setup, and make all my money this way. I'm also super productive, which is fortunate as I (clearly) spend way too much time on HN haha.

Yeah, maybe it's because I grew up with sisters, but "girls not wanting to do secret writing" (if the actual reason) is boneheaded beyond belief. "Keeping secrets in a hidden diary" is literally a standard trope in sitcoms.
Not OP so not sure what OP meant but I think the reason GPLv2 beats BSD here is that code derived from BSD-licensed code is often taken closed source.

Industry modifications to FreeBSD and Minix (and maybe NetBSD too?) were never sent back upstream or were sent back with a delay.

Splinters in Linux-based systems are still open source so good modifications can be added to upstream.

I’ve started using email all over for “internal app messaging” because it’s pretty great. mailto: hyperlinks are actually quite capable if you read the docs. I made a gem for my Rails apps at https://github.com/rocketshipio/mailto that makes it super easy to pretty much compose messages for people who want to send you a support or sales request via Erb templates.

For outbound messaging, emails are sent from the sever.

It would be awesome if other applications, like Teams, Slack, and Discord had a mailto:-like integration, but they don’t.
When I was in college, I took Entomology and Zoology for my bio requirement. The first one was because the teacher had such high ratings in the student reviews. At one time, I could name all the orders of insects. No longer.

It did seem like just a bunch of memorization to me then. Much, much later, I took an Extension course in Molecular Biology, and what a difference! I still think the diagrams they draw for biological processes in Molecular Biology of the Cell are just stunningly beautiful, and completely blow away anything you'll ever see in a CS text.

But expecting to have those revelations when you don't know how anything works yet is foolish. You have to pay your dues.

I disagree that ObjC or Swift would result in a better experience by themselves, however I assume you meant to say Cocoa/AppKit and SwiftUI, in which case I would agree.

Note that while SwiftUI benefits greatly from being written in Swift, you could write Cocoa/AppKit quite easily in many languages since it's fairly easy to bind ObjC. There's even Rust bindings https://docs.rs/cacao/latest/cacao/

For SwiftUI, I'm sure someone has written an adapter in other languages but there's so much under the hood magic that SwiftUI does that's tied into the language runtimes, that I think it would be truly herculean to do something in another language.

They're still doing the thing where if you want to wall mount it, you've got to punch a hole in your drywall for the cables to have enough room to exit straight out the back of the monitor. Or hope that some cheap 90-degree noname adapter supports the latest version of DisplayPort that you want. I stopped buying this brand of monitor because of this frustration.
You'd hope so because these U-series processors only have 2 real cores and 8 efficiency cores. If Linux were unable to sensibly exploit that setup, it would not be fun to use. Note that you need the very latest Linux kernel and depending on your distro some manual configs to make it work right.
Also easier to reposition as a single unit.

It's amazing how little integration of online tooling there is even in the thought process.

The fact that they are remote or not actually says little about the communication patterns except that it is not physically face-to-face.

If mentorship is important then rather than relying on the physical distance between the new person's desk and the senior, you make it a policy that they need to do mentorship. And provide tools, structure and time for that.

If the senior or junior by virtue of the fact that they are not sitting in the same space cannot or will not work together, then either you have not got the tooling in place or you don't have control over your employees.

Learn to use internet software, set firm policies about communication and collaboration and availability to the degree it is actually necessary. If people don't comply then fire them.

The fact that they are physically in the same space or not is a minor detail for most of these jobs. Absolutely incredible how little understanding there is of that fact.

Learn to use an online white board, screen share, write an email, or open a video or voice chat.

This is basically two 1440p panels attached together... so not too different if you have really thin bezels.

But what I'm curious about is if this acts as one monitor or two? None of the images show windows that overlap the middle of the screen. So is it one or two "virtual" screens?

If it is one virtual screen, I might think of it as more useful to me in the 18:16 orientation.
I tried a 49" 4k, and it gave me neck pains unless I only used the middle half of it.

> Editing Style - Vim or Emacs

I'd like to see more editors adopt kakoune's[1] editing model.

In some ways it's more intuitive as you define the text object/selection first and you get visual feedback for selections. Coupled with multiple selections, it lets you do stuff that's rather tedious in vim (macros and a lot of manual moving around) more efficiently.

There's Dance[2] for vscode if you want to try it without actually switching to kak.

> Industry modifications to FreeBSD and Minix (and maybe NetBSD too?) were never sent back upstream

The most popular software that was derived from (a number of predecessors and) FreeBSD, Apple’s Darwin, is free software, nobody stops anyone from taking code from there. In fact, quite a few FreeBSD developers are (were?) paid by Apple.

All of the foxhole radio designs I've seen actually do have an (albeit very crude) way to select a frequency. Maybe all the designs I've seen aren't faithful to the ww2 versions?
Meh. I never want more vertical space on my monitor. It would be really a hard aun with MacOS too unless it’s meant to be two virtual monitors, in which case, it still doesn’t impress me.
That France-Spain connection is fairly special. Firstly, international connections tend to have much less traffic than intranational ones. Secondly, the line was built with a PPP project (long since failed), assuming it could be very profitable based on track access fees - and the track access fees for that stretch of railroad are basically the highest anywhere in Europe except for the channel tunnel. But unlike the channel tunnel (and thirdly), the connections across the line aren’t as useful as the channel tunnel, which connects a giant metropolis (London) with several other metropoli in 2-4 hours, a sweet spot for rail, whereas Barcelona and Paris/Marseille are more like 6h. Once the French side will update their Mediterranean rail lines to hsr standards, the time will go down and ridership will increase, despite the high costs.

Lastly, there isn’t much freight on the line, because (besides the high track fees) there isn’t much of a standard gauge freight rail network in Spain.

In some sense the Perpignan Figueras line was supposed to be like the channel tunnel, but it really isn’t. It’s not exactly comparable to the rest of the Spanish hsr network - which is arguably overbuilt for political reasons to get hsr into many even smaller cities, and perhaps under-utilised at this point, but it’s not as bad as that one line might suggest when picked as a representative.
I found this part most interesting. Public awareness of the Delaware Court of Chancery is about to skyrocket during this court battle.

The fact that Musk is working in such bad faith here — that he seems so unconcerned with law and the contract he signed — cuts both ways. On the one hand, it will certainly annoy a Delaware chancellor; Delaware likes to think of itself as a stable place for corporate deals, with predictable law and binding contracts, and Musk’s antics undermine that. On the other hand it might intimidate a Delaware chancellor: What if the court orders Musk to close the deal and he says no? They’re not gonna put him in Chancery jail. The guy is pretty contemptuous of legal authority; he thinks he is above the law and he might be right. A showdown between Musk and a judge might undermine Delaware corporate law more than letting him weasel out of the deal would.

How can that be relevant? I mean, this is just the grossest of correlations "Americans have X, and are also exposed to Y, therefore Y causes X"?

Not knowing anything about glyphosate, I went to the article before reading the comments. I’ll just put this here because it was clear the researchers wanted to be sure people see it. From the first paragraph of the article—>

> In 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer determined that glyphosate is a “probable human carcinogen” (IARC, 2015). However, the European Food Safety Authority and the Joint Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)/World Health Organization (WHO) Meeting on Pesticide Residues (EFSA 2015, FAO/WHO 2015) determined that glyphosate is unlikely to be a carcinogen. The US EPA concluded that “available data and weight-of-evidence clearly do not support the descriptors “carcinogenic to humans,” “likely to be carcinogenic to humans,” or “inadequate information to assess carcinogenic potential” (US EPA 2017a). Controversy and concern that the rising use of glyphosate may have adverse human-health effects exist (Myers et. al., 2016).
> The easiest thing for you to do is to get 2 internet connections from different carriers that do not share networks.

This is not as easy as it may seem, as it's common for the carriers to lease from each other in the backbones. Telus and Bell for cellular services share a radio network, each cell site connects to both the Bell and Telus core networks. The big Bell backbone outage in the Toronto area, 6 or 7 years ago, had impacts on all of Bell, Telus, and Rogers networks. As for cellular services we had glitches nationwide that had to be fixed during that backbone outage.

But then following your prior reasoning, that's just another collapse. So if the only way to measure is to collapse then pmkahler is right: there is no way to discern a collapsed wave function from a non collapsed one.

Microsoft has some influence on the .ms TLD.

We settled on a .ms domain for a project, and ultimately scraped it in favor of our current name because we couldn’t get Route53 to pick it up.

Initially I thought it was an AWS bug and even reported it to them to no avail. I did some more digging and discovered Microsoft was using .ms for doc sites, and it started to add up. I believe AWS is intentionally not routing traffic to TLDs associated with Microsoft.

> The constable, my son, and his friend walked into the management office; the constable presented the writ of execution of the judgment, and my son and his friend started unplugging and loading up office equipment and furniture to be hauled off and sold at auction.

yeah, that’s like totally reasonable. I’ve done similar back in the ‘80s, using a similar process seized bank accounts when the former employer ignored an order to pay a judgement over unpaid expenses. Notably they didn’t bother to appear in court in the first place; they never responded to service even though I paid extra to have the Sheriff’s Deputy serve it. Then they ignored my calls and letters for several weeks. I knew all the bank account numbers already, so: back to the judge for an order to seize the accounts. Showed up at the bank an hour later with the deputy in tow and walked out with a bank check for roughly $45k 30 minutes later.

Nowadays a bank makes you wait some days for a payout but they will freeze the funds immediately.

These days I prefer lawyering up, but in the late ‘70s I called on a supplier to deliver promised equipment that was being delayed because well, I was a teen-ager and even though I had paid they felt like I wasn’t a serious customer. So I paid a local motorcycle club $500 to escort me to the meeting, as well as sit there in the parking lot revving engines and scratching off whilst I met with the vendor. The MC got a hefty tip because: members helped load the product, and the MC president encouraged a 50% refund made out to me personally to ensure I would never have to be a customer again...
Oracle was the only company that even bothered to actually buy Sun assets.

Everyone else let it fall down hard on the floor, after management run the company into the ground.

It was Oracle that delivered into production the first UNIX with hardware memory tagging, still the best one at it today.

It was Oracle that made MaximeVM into a real product with GraalVM.

It was Oracle that pushed Java design from its long term stagnation.

Yes there were victims along the way.

Without Oracle not even the former ones would have taken place.
Successful flipping, as I’ve come to understand it, is basically a general contractor plus capital. In other words, it’s a variation on an existing line of work that allows the gc more control & speed, but it’s still a job, and most of the profits are the result of cost efficiency & sweat equity.
This is maybe possible when you're hiring direct reports, or your company/department is < 50 people. But if you continue to hold VPs to this standard past that point, they'll respond (if they're smart, I guess) by creating a bonkers system that strangles hiring and productivity to minimize their risk. This makes sense in some sectors (aerospace), but not most of them.

I've had a 2560x1440 27" for a long time and recently switched to 4K scaled to 2560x1440 and the difference is absolutely crazy. Everything is so sharp and crisp, letters look so much better, way easier on the eyes. And that's with plenty of people on here claiming that macOS does a bad job downscaling by non-integer values, not that I'd notice anything wrong. I remember my first retina laptop screen felt just as crazy good.
> it seems to suggest police moving towards the bystander does not count.

Except in cop "logic" it does. Because once they move on someone filming, that person is now within 8 feet and thereby a "criminal" - worrying about the exception to the law is for prosecutors to do later. The filmer is a threat, because cops are juiced up on paranoid delusions that everyone that doesn't fall into line and salute them is out to attack them. And therefore the cop justifies themselves preemptively attacking the filmer, smashing their camera, etc, to get the situation "under control".

When the incident actually sees court (persecution of the victim of course, cops themselves rarely end up as defendants for their own crimes), the cop will cry about how scared they were etc (with a manly facade) and how their job is so hard, and they have to make quick decisions in the heat of the moment, blah blah blah. Even if the victim does spend enough on attorneys to successfully defend themselves legally, they'll still suffer the injuries from being attacked, their broken phone, other possessions "lost" (stolen) by the police, time and money spend defending themselves, etc.

Like every other recent Republican legislative dog whistle, it's purporting to address a problem that simply does not commonly exist - as many others have pointed out, interfering with police officers is already illegal. This law does not create a clearer delineation, but rather is focused on the specific act of filming to add uncertainty and undermine that individual freedom despite the anticonstitutionality of doing so. The only reason the exceptions are even there is to make it sound like equity has been considered, but they're really just afterthoughts to the main goal of increasing the arbitrary and capricious power of the state.

A new startup ISP won't be peering, they'll be paying an incumbent provider for at least transit if not full access services (e.g. "dedicated internet access," basically commercial ISP service under contract terms that allow diverse uses including internet services). The term "backbone" is pretty useful here as the number of providers in North America with real global connectivity is fairly small; most ISPs with under thousands of customers are themselves customers of Centurylink/Lumen or Verizon, both of which have been steadily acquiring their competition in core internet connectivity (Level3 for example).

Wikipedia does not report facts for journalistically relevant events. It documents journalistic "reactions".

"Newspaper X wrote Y" is factually true if newspaper X indeed wrote Y and NOT if Y is true.
This in combination with the fact that they (who?) decides which newspapers are accepted, makes Wikipedia very much a propaganda tool when it comes to politically relevant topics and events.
They do the "selecting and omitting" to support a narrative all the time.
