You can surely get by on $40k a year. With my Master's Degree in Social Work from one of the best schools in the country, my best paying jobs were about $33k, but 2 bedroom apartments for $350 are gonna be hard to come by.
Yeah, bummer, I can submit a PR to Homebrew but it would take a few hours/days, and we don't ship OSX binaries from Draios, so why don't you go with:

https://github.com/draios/sysdig/wiki/How-to-Install-Sysdig-...

Assuming you have a C/C++ compiler installed (comes via XCode) it really takes like 2 minutes.

Lazy alternative, in a couple days maximum Homebrew should be updated, unfortunately it doesn't depend on us.

Also, notice that sysdig for OSX doesn't (yet) have live capture, so you'll just be able to run the chisel on a trace file that you previously created on a Linux host.

If it were possible, say, to create a light bulb that lasted 1,000 years for a dollar. Who could afford to make such a thing?

Anybody who wants to get rich.

Let's say that you can sell such a light bulb, and that it's so great that everyone in the world buys one, on average. And say you can sell it for a dollar, but you only make a cent of profit on each one. Why, that'd only leave you with. . . $70,000,000 dollars.

Well that's not too bad, but really not great either. It'd certainly let you retire to a tropical island for the rest of your life. But you could do better. If the light bulb is so great, wouldn't everyone be willing to spend more than a dollar on one? After all, those inferior light bulbs cost about twice as much, so if your bulbs are better than others should be willing to pay at least that much. Let's knock the price up to $2, then. That puts the profit per bulb at $1.01. So then you can simultaneously destroy the light bulb industry (fun!) and put a cool 7 billion dollars in your pocket (profit!).

Who would choose not do do such a thing? Certainly most anybody who's motivated by profit (like, say, a capitalist) would jump at the opportunity.

Been watching fox news again? There is no ban on incandescent light bulbs in the USA and never has there been one nor one proposed. What we do have is a standard of minimum light output per watt, enacted in 2007. This has caused the disappearance of dirt-cheap 60W bulbs which were replaced with 43W bulbs producing the same light.
Somewhat off-topic, maybe, but is anyone else here experiencing massive slowdowns in Chrome and Chromium for Linux?

It's unusable to me at this point: The whole thing pegs one core of my dual-core system just switching to a new tab, even though plenty of RAM is available. It pegs my CPUs and my disk on startup, but that's been a problem for quite a while now.

In both cases, I'm using the latest in the Ubuntu repos.

Frankly, I'm shocked that they didn't start with procedurally generated missions first so that everyone can participate and then add hand-curated ones slowly to improve the quality.

Patents don't give you rights to a product. Only a certain implementation of one.

Your competitors will patent improved versions if you don't. They might also invent a product using a new implementation leaving you with no market.

And in practice, it doesn't work that way. Companies acquire patents on each minor upgrade to their technology.
It's the old classic: liberals (right-wing) are tough on <something!> and are the only ones who can be.

And so Labor (left-wing) are cowed into silence because they're not sure they want to fight that one out in the media (which, isn't unfair - if anything happens it's political suicide).

What you do have to remember though is no one really expected the Abbott government to be this insane. A ton of people who voted "not labor" were expecting more along the lines of he tries not to rock the boat too much. Not the "dismantle social welfare, raise fees on everything, screw the healthcare system...what I'm unpopular now? TERRORISM! TERRORISTS EVERYWHERE!"
Bravo man, I tried to make the switch from vim to emacs evil and failed horribly. I would eventually throw emacs into a state where it wasn't in any of the evil modes, then bash my keyboard with C-X C-C. Is it possible to use emacs+evil without knowing emacs inside and out?

Emacs with evil, without a doubt, runs so much smoother while editing large projects. The biggest point is that asynchronous operations are a lot easier to perform in emacs. You can get close to it with plugins like vim-dispatch or vimproc, but they always felt like a second class solution to me.

You get cool stuff like search/replace preview and super smooth async operations in the background (like on the fly linting with flycheck).

In the end, I'm still using vim. Unite with vimproc is "good enough" for me. For me, the only real place where async operation is a huge problem is with file search operations. Every few months I try to use emacs for a day, maybe next time it will stick :)
Those seem in no way equivalent. The old definition pretty clearly refers to 1 computer. You could certainly argue that several hosts represented 1 computer, but a judge would throw it out.

The new definition plainly allows "one or more computer networks" which means literally the entire internet since it's just "one or more computer networks".

You're missing the point. Look at this code.

Imagine a dev using eval() in PHP. The PHP interpreter creates a new environment, executes your (presumably sanitized) code, but also automatically calls eval on every global variable in your app.

That would be a huge bug in PHP, and it's the equivalent of what bash is doing.
I had considered that, which points to some serious issues with what dirt on they have on politicians to give them that leverage. I wish I could ignore traffic laws as it would make the morning commute shorter, but the laws on due process are there for a reason.

As for Labor, Bill Shorten may as well be a Liberal, though I would have thought Pilbesek would have been more vocal in questioning whether it was necessary. I suspect the Royal Commission into Union funding plays heavily on the level of Labor opposition.

The Greens at least opposed it, but this legislation is a bigger threat to them along with their supporters. It will be interesting if they start branding activists as terrorists and whether it has a chilling effect on groups with serious numbers like GetUp who are a major thorn in the government's side.

They portray this as being in response to the latest terrorism news, but I suspect its drafting began at least 12 months ago.

Apologies for being a little off topic but your comment brought back some good memories.
Christian Fundamentalism (which is a decidedly American/English sect, 100 years old this year) is the only sect I'm aware of that takes a hard-line literalist approach to Genesis 1, and even among them there's argument as to whether the sun is literally created at that time or if it becomes visible somehow. (That idea is fairly old -- I was just reading Aquinas' take on it, written in the 1200s: http://www.ccel.org/ccel/aquinas/summa.FP_Q70_A1.html )

Many Christian sects (historical and modern) don't view Genesis 1 as specific "points in time". There are various alternative theories -- Augustine (354-430 AD) suggests that creation of all six "days" worth of stuff was actually a single instantaneous event, and that the "days" might refer to the way God revealed creation to the "angelic mind", for example. One theory gaining more prominence is that the Genesis account parallels an older Egyptian account in a subversive way -- using the same structure (including the "days") but setting itself apart in the way it speaks about the details of God and creation (see https://bible.org/article/genesis-1-2-light-ancient-egyptian... .) Viewed from this perspective, the "days" are just poetic structure and have nothing to do with the actual timing of creation.

Two earners is a strategy to pick up slack, but it drives down pay over time.

The only way to sustain a "one worker per household" system is to have some kind of force preventing more than one worker per household- be it social, legal, or otherwise. Without that, some folks will try to get ahead, and we will wind up right back where we are.

In short, it just doesn't seem to be something we can have a mix of. Either everyone has one worker per household, or everyone has two (or more).

Most competently-constructed buildings and bridges today could last for a thousand years. They still get built, and they take a lot more upfront capital investment than any light bulb.

My guess: Buildings tend to be over-engineered because any failure will kill people. There's just no reason to buy a light bulb that will last longer than your own occupancy of a given place.
Enjoying seeing these lectures.

One thing sticks in my craw that Sam mentioned as common with these young founder startups:

"Learning just a little bit of management skill, which first time CEO's are terrible at goes a long way"

Sam goes on to discuss how shit management is kind of par for the course in young startups.

It seems to me like getting this part wrong would be the death knell for any company and Sam went on to mention an example of someone who had multiple turnovers/"massive team churn."

As someone who has been a front line supervisor for almost 7 years these are absolutely basic fundamental day 1 skills that any manager should have, like giving credit and taking blame. Yet investors don't give a shit about these types of things and basically assume they don't matter - until they are causing problems.

I guess I just find it frustrating that teams with this management dynamic are getting serious money, especially with all we know about management.

>>Aren't you discounting the perks?

Most Indian private companies today offer free lunch, free transport and health insurance. The days when only government firms offered these are long behind us. If not free, most companies at the least subsidize lunch, food and insurance.

>>I agree some IT guys like me earn in multiples of that - but most don't.

Eventually they will. Changing a job will easily get a you a minimum of 30% raise in any company in India. Even a services company. If you change jobs every 3 years you will still be way ahead of any guy working there. And also note their hikes are largely based on a concept of 'pay revision' which are generally once in 10-15 year activity. In that time even your average guy would drawing at least thrice more than than any government employee.

>>And what about the amazing work-life balance (more life less work), job security and "serving-the-country" feeling.

What you call work life balance, will look like stagnation 10 years into your career. Job security will feel more like institutionalization and you increasingly feel like you are stuck in a place from where there is no way out. The difference in salary between yours and your peers will be huge and they would have a lot more touch on any technology than you will.

And not to mention most private companies think of government firms as wastelands where people just push time doing nothing.

>>Compare that to a heavily stressful job, waking up at 3AM because....

Frankly speaking to my ears this sounds similar to what many of my class mates in school used to say about students who study late night working on physics and math problems. Because they thought people were taking too much stress to work on things they didn't have when they could simply have a garment or a shoe shop and earn the same. We all know where they are today.

Money comes at a price. Like it or not my friend money matters. We live in a society where we have to spend money buying things, send our kids to schools, pay their tuition fees, we need to buy a home, car etc.

>>I'd exchange so-called-high paying job to get a job like ISRO now (Somebody misguided me in my early days with the same logic you mentioned)

You seriously should. And there is nothing really stopping you. And you can easily get through the exams they have. But the fact that most of us don't shows us where our true priorities are.

ISRO is just one small island in the massive government bureaucracy there is. In all likeliness you won't be writing any great application but rather clocking 9-5 with your friends sipping tea in the canteen, cribbing about rising prices, a senior colleagues daughter's marriage for which he hasn't any savings ,pay revision which is 7 years away, and discussing lifestyle of a friend who just bought a honda city while you are here saving money commuting in a bus because petrol prices increased by 4 rupees last week.
Are there any other former vi/emacs users (like, hardcore - I used to browse the web in emacs) who ditched it for an IDE?

I've used both emacs and vim extensively, but have never "ditched" either for an IDE. However, what I have found is that in some dev environments I'll use the IDE as the primary editor. IDEs at their best have great tools for maintenance, navigation, and comprehension of existing codebases. But when it comes time for e.g. many kinds of textual heavy lifting or whole-cloth new code I'll switch right over to emacs/vim.

FWIW, I'm really hoping that the long-term architectural changes in neovim will open the door to first-class IDE style feature sets. There's definitely been some good work that way in recent years, but those efforts are often hobbled by the classic editors' long legacies.

A prominent liberal economist (I believe Dean Baker) once portrayed the difference between "Conservative" and "Liberal" as being paternal vs maternal in regard to Government's relationship to tax payers. The maternal was more nurturing providing a base of services to enable opportunity, where the paternal way was basically "man up" and get out there and help yourself.

For corporates however, it was a different story.

> Can't we go back to that, preferably without the sexism this time?

No. The sexism is what made it work. If society permits both spouses to work then couples where both spouses work can afford to pay more for a house which increases the price of housing (and likewise for everything else). As more two income families come to exist it thereby becomes more difficult to sustain a family on a single income, which further exacerbates the problem by increasing the incentive to become a two income family (and thus the number of two income families inducing price inflation).

The only way to prevent that is for society to somehow discourage couples from both working full time jobs. And since employers have no way to tell what an employee's spouse is doing all day, the most effective social enforcement method is sexism. (Obviously the math doesn't care which sex is inhibited from working but existing culture is a different matter.)

Probably the closest you could get to it without the sexism is to provide everyone with a basic income.[1] A spouse who didn't work full time would still receive the basic income which would significantly reduce the income inequality between single income and dual income families, thereby reducing the pressure for both spouses to work and making single income families more practical.

You're putting words in my mouth. I did not say "it is hard to make programming languages". It is a skill like any other that can be improved with sustained practice.

This post was just a variation of the checklist which indicates to me the author is not really interested in any kind of deep analysis of the language and is just publicly bitching and moaning. That to me is an indicator of the blub disease.
