Norton-style commanders were huge in xUSSR.

FAR and Dos Navigator were among the most popular, and in the end FAR won it (as it was windows app and got rich ecosystem of plugins). They were good not only due dual panel interface (newer versions were actually multi-panel, where you cold go as many 2 panel "workspaces" as you want), but they enabled extremely efficient keyboard only workflows. Windows couldn't get it even now.

Far is still alive: https://www.farmanager.com/

Also I don't use it, but I install midnight commander on every my linux setup just for memories.
Ok? I don't see what being a "rounding error" (assuming that it is even accurate, which I don't believe it is) or your tangent has to do with my point.

If we're going for personal experiences, I've known and been in multiple polycules and I can't say there's been any more drama than in mono land. Having multiple concurrent sex partners doesn't mean they're not relationships; I sleep with a lot of people ranging from my partner who I've lived with for 7 years to someone who is a hiking friend I met last spring, but they're still relationships. With full respect, your comment sounds like someone who has only external observation with the poly community/experience - i.e. the IT department phenomenon, you only get noticed the few times something is going wrong and are invisible when the ship is sailing smoothly the rest of the time.

But again this is all beside the point, being part of a "rounding error" is not comforting at all to me or providing equal human rights.
I had my first under the table/cash job at 12. I was working for people who were small business owners that I've known my whole life. They weren't family, but my parents trusted them to work me hard while being honest and fair. It was a terrible, shitty job, but overall a great experience. I learned to think outside of the box and it gave me a sense responsibility.

I fully support those types of situations, but I REALLY DON'T want to see kids working for BigCo. We all know kids won't be paid more than minimum wage and they certainly aren't getting points for critical thinking skills at a soulless corporation.
This is a very novel use of the term "save face", and thus, makes no sense, at all.

Of course they are, all the money the boomers were planning to leave to their kids are now going to pay for quality not quantity of life in the remaining time they have.
> Go is for Google,

Google uses many languages beside Go, and I doubt Go is used much outside of cloud infrastructure stuff. E.g. Fuchsia/Android/Chrome add a lot of Rust code recently, but not Go. In Fuchsia, Rust already surpassed C++ in the amount of code. Google was always a heavy user of C++ and Java and it looks like their modern counterparts are Rust and Kotlin.
The cute typo in the review reminded me of this old joke (my apologies in advance):

There are studies for children, but from what I’ve seen there’s no advantage for adults/permanent teeth. I don’t really think it’s worth potential harm for baby teeth.
Also, you can be completely honest about the odds, but most people are bad at math and a significant number believe they will win through supernatural means anyways.

> Apple, Qualcomm, MediaTek, and Google all use Arm's designs and technology as a foundation for their own processor chips that power essentially all of today's phones

My understanding was that Amazon/Qualcomm/Mediatek/Google use ARM's cores but that Apple had their own core design and just uses the ARM architecture under special license.

Your argument is nonsense. It's like arguing that comparing the performance of an API that use lambdas VS a traditional API with an application running in the server is meaningless because "the lambda could be written in the application server". Who cares? If both can be used to implement the same API, the comparison is meaningful.

Maybe you wouldn't, but be honest with yourself - how many parents want their school to hold and keep pornographic material?

If you want to show your kids sexually graphic images, then sure, fine, have at it. You're complaining that you can't show these images to other people's kids, and you're complaining that those parents are a problem?
Ever since I started brushing with Novamin my dentist has started being really positive about the condition of my teeth in a way I’ve never experienced - even though I haven’t had a cavity in at least 20 years. I didn’t tell him what I’ve been doing.

It was when privacy laws started forming and the EU was beginning to really push IIRC. I don't think it was PR, they probably saw they were painting a giant target on themselves as long as they kept that functionality.

I agree with the article in regards to book feedback, but don't know that it transfers well to work. At work we need to interact with people who don't care about us or get us and manage those relationships to achieve our goals. Getting 1-2 feedback from a coworker is thus is still a gift because it allows you verify whether you understand the relationships you have.

If I get a 1-2 from someone I thought would give me a 3-5 that's valuable information that I didn't understand how they saw me. With the updated information I can more effectively navigate the relationship.
Not really, the core language is general purpose. It's Python's scientific libraries and ecosystem which became popular.

Cheques allow you to give someone a large amount of money (that would be too unmanageable with cash) without knowing anything about them but their name. Don't need to know an account number or a phone number/email address. Pretty handy.

Also, I am 36, and I live in a country (Denmark) that has entirely abandoned cheques, but I am still familiar with Danish cheques (even if I never managed one myself). Additionally, I still see them frequently when I am in France. (Though these days, the vast majority of cheques I see are US cheques, since my wife is American.)

Substantial differences in trust of the media. Finnish, Danish, Swedish, Dutch, and Portuguese people mostly trust media, while there is a low trust in Greece, France, Slovenia, and Spain.

Socioeconomic factors explain some of the variation: unemployment, low education, and working class status tend to be associated with mistrust. In addition, anti-EU stances substantially increase mistrust.

Reading https://github.com/hmarr/vitals/blob/main/Vitals/ProcessStat..., it seems this shells out to both ps and nettop each time it collects new samples (i.e. every second)

Might be just me, but I find that excessive for a tool that runs 24/7.

Shouldn’t be too hard to improve upon, I think. Both have -l 0, nettop even -L 0, simplifying output parsing.

I grew up with much slower systems, so I probably would go further and look at the source code of those tools to see whether the shelling and the parsing of the output can be avoided. Maybe, something maintainable can be extracted from that code.
If you're writing a latency sensitive program, 99.9% might as well be 0% though; you're going to end up with an asynchronous anyway.

For anyone looking for a HTTP server, or a Lua runtime with batteries included, have a look at the Mako Server[1]. It's really wonderful to work with.

I've automated my house based on it. It includes everything you may need , from JSON to TLS, email to websockets... all in a tiny 3MB binary, including the Lua interpreter!!

I run it on a Raspberry Pi and the process takes around 3MB of RAM. Just unbelievable comparing to anything like Node.JS or Java which would require a few 100's MB.

I sat down with a Chinese person who was willing to have a political conversation with me. They talked about the idea of "planned corruption" in China. What became pretty clear is that corruption does not grow linearly it grows exponentially. It grows exponentially because corruption frequently requires multiple parties. Corruption is often expressed in the form of loyalty. Corruption is social in nature and therefore subject to network effects.

The less manageable the corruption is, the more it costs to manage it less effectively.

So the idea of manageable corruption seems farcicle to me. In your political model of reality, who is doing that managing?

> Socialism also isn't a solution. Someone has to pay and be held accountable.

I think I disagree. In order to hold someone accountable, you must have power. You cannot expect the powerful to hold themselves accountable.

So in your political model of reality, where does the power to hold someone accountable come from?

> What we are seeing...

I don't buy this at all as a key factor.

As someone who programs both C++ and Rust I'd say what apeaks for C++ is all the things that have been created for it during the long life of the language.

But Rust is catching up in that space and has a lot going for it in terms of ergonomics and safety. The fact that you often have the "if it compiles it works" experience (provided you leverage the type system) is such a good thing. It is just a nice language for certain things.
Sure, your current reasoning has convinced me to accept octopi. But by this reasoning, you're the one suggesting, against your present justification, that octopuses is not a "correct" plural (and should be corrected to "octopi"), when its in "recent popular usage". In which case there is no use for the comment I had replied to.
> What’s the practical difference though?

The practical difference is that, in one case, the taxpayers collectively decide what's appropriate for their children and what is not. In the other case, a single (or a few) individuals decide what is appropriate for all the taxpayers children.

I don't understand why some people think it's better to ignore the wishes of the voters.
You can feel whatever you want to feel. That doesn't mean it translate to anything in reality.
Colorado Governor Signs Psychedelics Bill
Wow, thanks so much for this link!
Its immoral and horrific. My grandpa's wife (remarried) passed not too long ago. She passed because they kept juggling her back and forth between skilled nursing, hospital, and hospice. She couldn't speak or communicate effectively because of a medical condition.

Hospital marked her as NPO (no food, trouble swallowing), discharged her without resolving that back to skilled nursing (still NPO), and she went more than 10 days without any food or drink aside from saline IV, just waiting. It took a family member visiting and researching what NPO was on the chart, the gaunt look, and threatening a lawsuit before they finally took action and gave her a feeding tube (back to the hospital) before the talk "its not about the Quantity, but the Quality of Life"...

She didn't survive long after and passed within a month. Likely because of the sharp spike of no food, followed by food in her weakened condition.

During one of my visits for another family member (different facility) I overheard one of the staff on a smoke break outside insensitively joking with co-workers that the standard care is "skill em till they kill em".

I asked a friend who happened to have worked in medical/hospice, and they said its not uncommon to hear that among staff but they shouldn't have been saying that openly with patients or relatives nearby.

Absolutely horrific, there are no words that do justice or communicate the horror that awaits older people in these places.
I think it would make more sense to measure the longest computation in the number of cycles executed rather than in seconds. If I'm not mistaken, Voyager 2 had a processor running at 4MHz. So a modern 2 GHz processor will execute more cycles in a couple months than a 4MHz processor in 50 years...
> It's better to get something to work first and then optimize performance later than the other way around.

I see it repeated a lot without any justification. And I observe that in practice a reverse statement is true.

If you make something work first without looking at its performance from the very first phase of development then you will soon find yourself in a place where the only way to improve performance is doing a full rewrite.

It is way easier to add more features to a program that has good performance-oriented design than to improve performance of a program that has accumulated thousands of features. And particularly programs like web browsers, compilers and database engines don't have mythical "95% of CPU power is taken by 5% of code" profile. Their profiles are flat, and when you improve perf by 5% you're already blogging about it.
I think a "competitor" to Lua would be Guile [1], but I am not sure if it gets close to Lua in terms of lightweightness... it was designed to be used in the GNU project, with similar objects as Lua: to be light, easily embeddable. It's a Scheme (Lisp) so maybe not for everyone's taste... its "coolest" use i know of is for configuring Guix [2] (the GNU version of Nix).

It was in college, had a couple of courses that involves writing some things in assembly. There's not a lot to assembly, but when you write it you realize how function calls involve a bunch of arbitrary choices, and the stack is part of the c runtime, etc. I definitely wouldn't call myself an expert, but the experience was illuminating coming from the world of higher level languages.

Your comment is technically correct, as there are only three such countries (Germany, France and Italy), and two of them (FR and IT) indeed still use checks to some amount. But the biggest county in the EU certainly doesn't use checks, nor do numbers 4-18 (Ireland is #19).
And as it turns out, the smallest one too.

I already evaluated Creole and prefer Markdown. I also prefer reStructured Text over Creole.

Searching for comparative reviews, I’ve found five, neither of which recommended Creole for any particular reason.

My main point of review is how to make local links:

When I use Markdown, it’s either in my Obsidian notes which actually have a wiki-style [[link]] syntax (not standard for Markdown), or it’s in a git repository where local links means a link to a relative file path.

The latter is more portable, whereas wiki-style namespaces assume one homogenous knowledge base, which makes distributing documents more difficult.
We have a service that was often crawled by bots on cloud providers, luckily we can block AWS IPs without to much hassle.
The author fails to mention a super use case for lua which is celebrated by productivity nerds like myself - configuration.

Weekend Hack: AI-Powered Chrome Plugin for LinkedIn Responses
Hey everyone, hacked a small and simple Chrome plugin this weekend. It's like your personal AI secretary for LinkedIn. You give it a LinkedIn post and it'll cook up a smart response for you.
