No it isn't.. being on a soap box doesn't give you some special permission to just spread false information without being interrupted. I heard this argument before, there was an article about book reviews, and that authors who interacted with reviewers (by writing on their own blogs about them or on twitter) would be labeled Bad Behaving Author and be shunned by the review community. What's up with that?

If someone talks shit, he should be challenged as soon as possible, preferably in front of the same crowd they are talking shit in front of. If you take the opportunity to talk in front of a lot of people, you should also take the responsibility to be properly prepared, and be ready to face the consequence of not performing adequately.
Coding and Computer Science can be mutually exclusive. There is no requirement or reason why you should be required to take computer science to be a programmer. There are plenty of coding jobs out there that do not require (in principle or practice) a CS degree.

On top of that, having a CS degree is no guarantee of someone being even a decent coder. There are tons of crappy CS grads who are bested by people with no degree, associates degrees, and random liberal arts degrees (e.g. philosophy, english).

You are right about the cost of boot camps. However, the exact same argument could be made against traditional 4 year college programs and masters degrees.

Ultimately, what you learn in the class is quickly eclipsed by what you learn on the job and in through continuous self study and pursuit of knowledge.

It is sub-optimal (to the extent that people die) to train doctors how to make decisions when they're tired by forcing a bunch of doctors to be tired most of the time.

It's kind of surprising that clinician errors kill so few people - about 10,000 (ten thousand) per year in the US.
Interesting CPU performance in Chrome on Ubuntu!

Relating to this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8471049
(Google chrome helper amok in OSX HN thread)

While playing Cursors my chrome CPU usage went through-the-roof! Just like OSX 60-80%+ CPU usage on that page. Side-by-side comparison with a mac at cursors.io had identical CPU (so may just be the load of the app).

Just did a side-by-side comparison with Mozilla in Ubuntu showed no higher than 15% for about 90 seconds, but actually ended up jumping to 100%

*Edit: The mozilla cpu jump was related to cursor hiding. Otherwise the crazy cpu usage is entirely gone. The issue persists in chrome.
I think that was addressed by the author: '... the long S is that it occurs only in the middle of words, never at the beginning or end.'
> only few of us have the time and patience to interact with Debian on a voluntary basis.

This might present a problem if they actually do try and fork it. I imagine it would take more time a patience to run a competing fork than to interact with current Debian.

Not that a fork is necessarily the wrong thing to do if your ideas of what Debian should be differ enough from where it's going. It's just that it sounds like it would be a fair amount of work :)

> If most of the major distros have switched to pulseaudio and systemd, it's because the people who actually know about this stuff have looked at his work and found it excellent.

Here's a theory. This is pure conjecture on my part—I'm not close to the systemd project or the various distros—so please take it with a grain of salt.

Programmers prefer to do less work. Simple tools get the job done and are easy to understand, but often require more effort to use effectively. Using a hand saw, it is hard work to cut a solid piece of wood, but the only servicing it needs is to sharpen the blade. On the other hand, with a chainsaw it is much easier to cut through wood, but there are many more things that you need to care about to keep it running smoothly. When put this way, the hand saw seems superior in its simplicity, but remember that it's not immediately obvious that chainsaws can be difficult to start, or that the chains get stuck sometimes. Standing in the hardware store, the chainsaw might seem like the way to go, but one might regret not choosing the simpler option when complications arise later.

It seems to me (conjecture, remember) that systemd offers a lot to the distros. It gives them hooks to manage difficult things and, after all, the systemd people are doing all the work. That explains why the distro maintainers might choose it, but my worry is that the convenience comes at a cost.

Dismissing ethics seems unfair.

How do you propose we approach the question of what we aught to do, or even decide how we go about deciding what we aught to do, if we don't approach it through philosophy?

There are many contexts this appears in: medicine, war, politics, economics, day-to-day trivialities, etc.
> A the lowest-level, you have doctors who're just assholes.

I was physically assaulted by a doctor around six years ago, I would use a much harsher term than asshole.
Of course, but when you're "in pain", or in a life-threatening situation... Time is more valuable than "politeness". At that point, I wouldn't care if I'm being treated by an asshole, or even Hitler himself.
The fork could maintain these.
A witty and self-deprecating write up of a first dive into hobby hardware - and a great result.

Excellent - keep it up!
A few points:

* These folks seem clueless. The cite Eric Raymond. Enough said.

* I like classic init. I'm actually not a big fan of systemd, but I clearly recognize something needs to be replaced. The system needs to handle parallelism and dependencies. It's essentially the same problem in a hundred different domains (from luigi, to things like make/ant/paver/rake, to things like supervisord). Each systems seems to solve it worse than the one before it.

Personally, I'd actually go with forking make, since it's the one everyone knows and the most Unix-y, modify it to:

* Handle long-running task and task restarts

* Handle parallelism

* Clean up some of the issues around modularity
Why? You're conflating a hyper authoritarian scheduling system with a vastly superior simple and cheap billing system.

There is no particular reason both have to be implemented at the same time. Maybe its culturally popular but there's certainly no technical reason.

I live in a former 1st world non-socialized medicine country and I have no option in where I go for medical care other than on a very meta level of which employer I work at and where I live ... in an emergency (heart attack, car accident) the ambulance drives me to the closest ER, there is no free market deciding which is "better". In a non-emergency, my cheap health insurance contracts with precisely one large medical chain in my area, so if I'm willing to do something like medical tourism and fly to another state I could select a new doc, but again no free market ...
Awesome - I'll definitely be using that for my next build! Thanks man!

At the beginning during the dinner, you have the option to make an observation about the drink your friend's father is having. It says beer at first, but if you click it, you will realise its actually lemonade.

But what impact does this have on the story? I presume it does have an effect, because after reaching an ending, whenever you restart at the 7pm checkpoint, the game first asks if you thought the father was really drinking lemonade or beer.

But I didn't notice any difference in the process of getting all 6 endings.
xl2tpd, still doesn't work.

I actually had to try to figure out why, turns out systemd supercedes lsmod/modprobe etc; causing those programs to return 1 when invoked, there's no debug or anything so I was seriously weirded out.

took me some time to figure out it was systemd.

the firewall wrapper for iptables gives you an insecure default config and is hard to fix via config management "add a service that means port 3128 TCP, now allow incoming connections"

My config management system creates files and pushes them out, I'm not in the habit of running idempotent commands repeatedly.. I'd rather check if something is correct before correcting it.
Well, medical-tourism isn't an answer to everyone's problems, at all ends of the socioeconomic spectrum. But if your assertion is indeed correct (that poor people aren't getting access to medicine in the US), then that's another argument against socialized (at least of the American-kind) medicine, and not at all a failing of free-market medicine.
> being on a soap box

Let's get this straight: he's not on a soap box (a term that refers to people who shout at passers by on the street), but rather at a conference at which he was invited to speak. The audience came into the room to hear him give his talk. Lennart rudely interrupted this.

> I heard this argument before, there was an article about book reviews, and that authors who interacted with reviewers (by writing on their own blogs about them or on twitter) would be labeled Bad Behaving Author and be shunned by the review community.

That's not my argument at all. I specifically suggested he _should_ respond with a blog post. Don't put me in the same group as those people. I encourage anyone to share their views on their own blogs, in comment sections, and on Twitter.

> If someone talks shit, he should be challenged as soon as possible, preferably in front of the same crowd they are talking shit in front of.

I disagree that it is appropriate to interrupt and shout someone down just because you think they are "talking shit". The definition of "talking shit" is subjective. If someone is interrupted before they can make their point, then the observer does not have the ability to judge whether they are right or wrong. It instead becomes a matter of whoever has the best rhetorical tactics. (Or who can shout the loudest.)

My job involves giving a lot of talks, and if someone were to engage with me like this I _would_ be prepared: I'd be prepared to tell them to wait until I have finished my talk and address their comments afterward. This has happened many times, and it worked out fine for all involved. It's called civility.

Don't waste time and energy trying to teach people who doesn't want to learn. Providing constructive criticism is a valuable service you are giving them for free. If they do not want it, you are an idiot for trying to force it upon them.
This is false for the UK.

I can change my GP at any time, and I do not have to give a reason.

When I go to my GP for a problem and she thinks I need a referral I then get a choice of 4 different doctors and I can book it online.

You can always ask for second opinions. It's simply untrue to suggest that people don't have choice of doctors in England.
So people misquote Aristoteles, so what? His philosophy is over 2000 years old, and severely outdated. Even if he didn't say a bunch of the non sense that is often attributed to him, he still said a lot of non sense. Perhaps not his fault (I'm sure in the year 4000 Bertrand Russel and Ludwig Wittgenstein will be considered obsolete gibberish). The point is that attributing truth value to authority is bad. Western science halted for many centuries because truth value was given to what Aristoteles said (or didn't say). I suppose that the OP has learned her/his lesson by not trusting Bertrand Russel on the claims. But he/she is then just re-iterating Russel's point. Don't base truth on authority.
The Euro is the currency of a wide range of fiscally independent countries which have had very different economic developments during the time since they adopted the Euro; its value is perhaps an adequate average of those countries, but nevertheless it is at the same time under-valued in Germany as it is over-valued in Spain.
'Tis pity. There's really no reason to go to all this effort and expense and not split the spacebar into left and right buttons, not add any other thumbable modifier keys, and worst, include neither a pointing stick nor a thumbable trackpad.
I'd also like to point out, as it doesn't seem like people go far enough in these sorts of analysis. We tend to draw some arbitrary line of causation, conveniently where it suits us. Obviously, the further back you go, the more difficult it is to draw conclusions and link causation/incentive, but it's important to at least try.

E.g. You claim that the problem stems from HMO's spreading risk/cost using premiums, and doctors using that to over-charge fraudulently. But, have you considered why the doctors are able to do so (and get away with )? Perhaps because there is a shortage of them. Or something else, the point I'm trying to make is that we need to go a little bit further.
With my CS background, I find this usage of "Data Structures" in the title confusing. I was expecting some sort of visualization framework for viewing tree/graph structures, so I think the title is a bit misleading.
Someone disagreeing with you doesn't mean they are stupid, evil and part of a grand conspiracy to destroy everything you love. They just have different priorities. Why is this so hard for people to understand?
Debian has always seemed to be about choice. You can even run it (for now, at least) on the FreeBSD kernel if you so choose. Obviously they are going to have to require systemd for Gnome 3.14+, but I see no reason not to allow installing a different init system for people managing headless LAMP servers via SSH, if there is an appropriate amount of developers willing to maintain the necessary packages for this.

Onto debianfork.org ... if history is any indication, naming it Pure Debian is only going to cause a world of pain for everyone. Forkers really need to stop trying to name their projects $superiorAdjective $projectName. That's never going to go over well with $projectName.

And if they do fork Debian, I sure hope they don't set the default UI font to Georgia 40. (I know it adapts to browser width. I don't like setting my browser to 200px width to read a webpage comfortably.)
Try to have a goal you want to accomplish. For example, while I was still learning to program, my goal was to make something like the ones you would find on chrome experiments. Having a goal not only gives you direction, it gives you something to look forward to.
There's potential for a really neat prisoner's dilemma study here. Should be an exercise for many a philosophy course.
Hah, it's still early days man! This is the first build of many to come. As I stated in the blog post, this build was just to see if I was capable of doing it since most of the skills I didn't possess before starting the build. Now that I know how to do this sort of stuff I'm definitely going to be exploring all the things I can do in the future.
> Getting e-residency in Estonia will require going there to have your identity verified – and fingerprints and face biometrics taken by border police.

Ugh. No thanks. That's not necessary anymore. Apple has proved that fingerprint identities don't need to be stored in a centralized place. And reading through their eID authentication protocol [1], I believe Estonians know this, yet they keep pushing for the centralized version.

In the document it even says storing fingerprints in a centralized place is extremely risky. Once someone breaks into that database, those identites can never be used again. And you can only change your fingerprint so many times (do you fancy using your little finger for ID, much?)

http://www.bdigital.org/Documents/estudi_ENISA.pdf
Do the doctor's get some sort of incentive (monetary, or otherwise) to get more patients? Because if they don't, then you can "change your GP" till your blue in the face, but they won't compete with one another at all to offer you better service/treatment.

It's not about lack of choice. The choice represents the doctors' competition with one-another. Obviously, as I've pointed out, the choice also has to have meaningful repercussions for the doctor involved, otherwise it's not really the kind of choice that can make a difference.

I'm going to say that, for some at least, fetishism is probably a part of the underlying lure.

I find it hard to completely disconnect the passion some people have for footwear from some form of foot fetishism.

Not saying it's necessarily the main drive, but it certainly can't be dismissed as an underlying force that can seduce some into buying lots of shoes.
While I understand and agree with what you say, this is generally the reason why I never open Facebook, but instead use Pidgin. This is why I don't like YouTube, but instead prefer youtube-dl + mplayer. This is why I'm far more likely to read HN comments versus opening a random webpage, or why I cannot multitask in my not-top-of-the-line smartphone.

I have an old laptop which 8 years ago worked just fine, and is now being more and more useless; not because it is degrading, rather because programs are degrading around it. It's like the world is devolving in an effort to churn out as much crap as possible.

When I open multiple programs which ought to be simple and things start to lag out, I feel a bit disrespected by developers which to avoid any kind of effort took it out on me cutting out what I could potentially do.

For people like this "do one thing and do it well" is the only way that you can beat the impossible complexity of a modern machine back into a running computer even some of the time. When you have a single point of failure which is a black box you're just back to windows land: restart the service, reboot the computer, reinstall the system.

For the developers, on the other hand, it might mean that some use case that is important for the admin is simply not yet implemented. The solution, as so often, is... drumroll to report a bug! Developers care about their users. Just talk to them.

Also, admins should realize that "reducing complexity" is a goal that they share with the developers. systemd is all about reducing complexity by implementing functionality the right way, on the right layer. For example, with systemd it's way easier to write a daemon, because it takes care of

* daemonizing: just stay in foreground

* logging: just output to stdout/stderr. journald will collect everything, and if you want, forward it to a classic syslog service

* startup: no more shell scripts required, just a simple service file

* supervision: just add "Restart=on-failure" to your service file. It also supports software watchdogs.

Here's an article from Mary Poppendieck that I first came across many years ago, discussing the matter of working as a team within an incentive system that can't really deal with it.

http://www.poppendieck.com/pdfs/Compensation.pdf
Excellent build quality, but I was surprised by these two statements on things you need:

A decent soldering iron. You will thank yourself later. Also note: you will burn yourself many times throughout the build. Might as well do it with a fancy iron!
LEADED SOLDER – I started the build without leaded solder and oh dear…

If you have a "decent soldering iron", then lead-free solder shouldn't be a problem. Also, if you live in the EU, leaded solder will be extremely difficult to come by.

Well, even with a really crappy iron, as long as the tip is fresh, you shouldn't have a problem. Most people's problems with soldering come from not having the tip wet enough and not using enough solder, thereby not making enough contact with the wire and not putting heat into it fast enough to get that specific location hot before the heat conducts away into the rest of the wire.

Remember, the entire reason we're using the wire is because it's an excellent conductor. For that reason, thicker gauge wire is also going to be more difficult to work. And the only reason to use larger gauges of wire is to support more current. Keyboards run on extremely little current already. You probably could have done this with magnet wire and been fine (though I wouldn't recommend it, magnet wire is difficult to work for different reasons).

So crank up the heat. Get it into the wire as fast as possible. Lead-free solder generally needs higher heat than leaded solder anyway. Apply the solder, apply the wire, then wait a second before removing the iron, because you also have to heat the wire you're pushing in. Soldering is a chemical bond, the metals physically mix, and you need to get them up to the right heat to do that.

And keep it steady, any movement while it is cooling will create microfractures in the solder joint.
> This then encourages free riding, no?

It's more likely to do so the bigger the team. In a team of 500, someone might think "my personal contribution doesn't matter much", but they are less likely to think so in a team of 5. Furthermore, in small teams social pressures are likely to deter free riding.
