What's monolithic about systemd? Sure it includes a lot of stuff, but so does Gnu coreutils and the BSD ports tree. It's not a single binary like docker.

Realistically, you only need to memorize a few:

- rake test: run the entire test suite

- rails s: run the rails server

- rails c: opens up an IRB/pry session with your Rails app

- rails g migration: create a new migration

- rake db:migrate - Run new migrations

- rake db:create - create the DB the first time

- rake db:schema:load - generate the DB from schema.rb

- rake db:setup - generate a new database from migrations

- rake routes - Spit out the routes and path helpers

Don't ever use rails generate model/controller. It generates so much garbage that you likely won't need.

There are a bunch of other commands off of rake db:migrate but most aren't needing to be memorized. Our brains are only so large and dense and mine is particularly small, memorize what is important and memorize how to look up the rest.

I didn't get that at all. I imagined an architect described by that text as a role that one (or more) of the engineers takes on during a project to ensure its success.
Thanks for the feedback!
I fixed the too broad permissions issue, now the app only asks for read permissions :)
It wasn't even bad on Fedora, it was in rawhide for over a year being worked on before entering Fedora 15, albeit they transitioned from upstart to systemd, which I'd think is a lot less significant a transition than from sysv to systemd.
"1. Low cost whole market index funds from (e.g. Fidelity), not individual stocks. See the Bogleheads site and books."

What's your opinion on leveraged equity? I have a few mutual funds that have been killing it since I bought them (a few years ago) but everything I read, says not to hold them longer then a few days. Its hard to sell something that's actively making money. One example, is I bought bipix back around Sept 2011.
Is there an Image comics to Etsy's Marvel/DC? Curious if there's a place that re-captures the soul of indie crafts? Or if the successful crafters simply open up their own store and etsy remains the primary place for people to become successful crafters.
That's the problem with android. The 'typical user' has no control over individual app permission - it's literally all or none. If you install the app you give it access to the GPS, as long as it has specified that permission.

Unless of course they push to make VS cross platform. I wouldn't be surprised if this is in the works. There has been a huge push at MS to become more cross platform with their product offerings. They must know a lot of their developers run OSX with a Windows VM just to run VS. I know pretty much our entire team does that.

This looks great. I always enjoyed Visual Studio but Monodevelop/Xamarin Studio always feels a bit rickety to me. The key for me is refactoring and code intelligence which is briefly mentioned on the homepage, but can you shed any light on your plans in this area?

Also, a minor thing - what's the typeface in the "PROPORTIONAL FONTS" screenshot?
Not sure about this paper, but Postgres' JSONB is quite good.

It's quite fast, you can easily use values like SQL sub-queries and you can index both everything and also specific subsets of the JSON data with expression indexes.
Sadly at this point in time the sysv vs systemd debate is a distraction, as systemd has grown to encompass so much more than sysv ever did. Damn it, it can be a full blown docker replacement now.
Cathode is objectively much better than cool-retro-term, which while cool, is just not nearly as good. I use both. It was well worth my $5 to support the author of this project. Cathode was also first and cool-retro-term is at least arguably a clone. It's great that it's open-source and cross-platform, but I don't find it usable enough for actual work in Linux, whereas I use Cathode all the time on OS X.
I'm sure they have backup copies of your data.

I'd find this really helpful if I could select particular repositories. I have a lot of repositories, but I'm only this interested in a couple of them (mostly the thing I'm working on right at this moment).

This is probably not that easy, but I would also be interested in forks where someone made a first commit. Lots of people fork and never commit, I think as a kind of stickier star, but I'm much more interested in people who actually do something with the code.

Also, seems like there's no way to turn it off? I just turned off all the notification events instead.

Twitter wants aggressive net neutrality rules
UI Workers
Well, it depends. In some cases, it's opening the file descriptor for a port then giving it to the daemon after the daemon has finished starting up. The service ends up maintaining the socket, but Systemd opened it.

In other cases, Systemd acts as an advanced xinitd and start services on demand, which means that Systemd listens and starts a service, but the service does the accept and responds.

So... it's hard to say without digging into the systemd configs.
Even if there is high demand for software developers, you might not be much in demand after 40. Just look at the average job page - how many old dudes do you typically see in the "this is our cool company" photo?

keep failing at things in one focused area. review your failures and note what you learned from each of them. if you make incremental improvements to anything on a daily basis, in 10 years you'll be a master.

never measure yourself against where you want to be, but to where you were.

always ask for things, no one is going to do it for you.

you can't make everyone happy (especially on hacker news ;) ). find an audience that resonates with you and make them happy.

Prices are set by supply and demand. If companies had the market power to raise prices to pass on the costs of defending class action lawsuits, they would do so with or without the lawsuit.

Because people working on components that interact with each other are working in the same project now. They see each others commits. They see each others question on the mailing list. etc.

Let me ask the reverse question: How would this be improved by splitting systemd into independent projects?

There's a comment on that post that I 100% agree with. The architect is responsible for the architecture (among other things) but that doesn't mean she's doing all the work. It's a team effort. The artchitect is just the one who is responsible for the final deliverable. Same with every role. It's defined by it's responsibility, not necessarily by the work being done.
Seriously? Have you not heard of side channel and timing attacks? This is called information leakage and is a big deal. Because it is not common/easy now doesn't mean it won't be in the future. The nature of information disclosure (whether data or metadata) is that people find "impractical" methods of accessing information we might prefer they not have, then make them practical. It may also be the case that the researchers cannot make it practical, but that doesn't mean there aren't actors who can and possibly have already done this.

This is a very useful article OP, thank you for posting
Why do i need to care? Today the only cross platform thing I worry about is if my site works correctly in IE/Firefox/Chrome/Safari. I don't care about my tools, I use windows, in the past I've used windows in a virtual machine on OSX. I'm not worried about it as a web developer.

Well in the typical Arch way it was a case of dictatorial "we are going systemd, deal with it".

Also one of the busybodies within systemd development is directly involved with Arch maintenance...

Btw, the big pedia claims that OpenSuse and Mageia(?) also use systemd. At least one of them is a fork of what used to be a RHEL fork with a more desktop orientation.

Then again, the adoption may well have happened before systemd started absorbing/reimplementing so many other functions.
Fair enough. :) Though in my case, showing where something "doesn't exist" isn't the most possible. But there's plenty out there on recommending balanced meals and exercise.

Exactly this, the products became more and more mass produced instead of the etsy sales pitch of one-offs.
Note that the "Magic is a beta product released less than a week ago" excuse is irrelevant.

If Magic wants to be competitive, it needs to have services equal to or better than existing options. (The Postmates comparison mentioned in the article is valid). That's the way it is with all startups and "they're just figuring themselves out" is not a sympathy granted by the marketplace.
Each part has its own disable flags on compilation and makes independent binaries.

Except for generators, certain auxiliaries like rfkill, journald, udevd and others. It's rather inconsistent, as is the specific libraries that can be disabled.
Technology is not exactly known to be stagnant. What is not practical now could be in just a few years.

For high value targets, all bets are off anyway. Some nation states have virtually unlimited resources they can call on.
I read the whole thing and didn't notice that bit.
The story is about a very disappointing first user experience and how it led me to never want to use the service again. The burrito is just a side plot.

... and having to wait almost 1.5 hours for it, most of the time wasted by waiting for the "Magic" reply.

Unfortunately I can't exclude organisation altogether, GitHub applications have access to organisation with the permissions that the user has allowed the app.

It's so hard to find good help these days.

(Or people on HN who understand irony, apparently.)
It won't. It will lead to more unstable systems that are used in production and that, in turn, would lead to more instability.

sysvinit bootstraps and shuts down the system. That's its job. It does it very well. It is irrelevant that it is slow. Absolutely no one should be rebooting systems 100 times a day.
Also, systemd has really "grown" over the years. Adopting systemd when it was just about handing services was one thing. But now it does networking (firewall management included), job scheduling, and more.

It is almost as if you can see the frog slowly boiling...
Thanks! It would be fantastic if individual refactorings could be packaged up and shared via github or some kind of package manager...

Why is Superfish getting all of the heat, while Komodia gets comparatively very little?

A product that injects ads in your web traffic is crapware, but the scandal here isn't that superfish was crapware, the scandal is the security hole it introduced, which compromised Lenovo users. Yes, we all hate crapware, but there's a big difference between bothering people with sneaky, unwanted, ads, and opening the doors for malicious parties to intercept their online banking credentials.

However, a SSL intercepting software does not need to expose such a security flaw. It was only Komodia's moronic implementation which did so. If instead of using a fixed private CA key, they had generated one on the fly when the software is run for the first time, users wouldn't have been exposed.

Regarding the VCs, I would give them the benefit of the doubt as well. What where they pitched? SuperFish was about shopping using image recognition. For all I know, they raised money on a pitch about offering a search service, and then ended up pivoting. I don't know for sure if that's the case, but it's possible, and the VCs should get a chance to tell their side of the story before being dragged in the mud.
As far as I understood, the main issue was the astronomically huge latency, not the price.
It does. You need to go into the terminal settings enable "Chroma Color" and then tweak the value.
As someone who has worked with Visual Studio and integration APIs for a long time, a port of VS across platforms would be a huge undertaking. A rewrite, essentially.

Visual Studio is heavily tied to WPF (Windows-only) presentation framework, COM (Windows-only) for communication across components and plugins, as well as bits of native legacy code throughout (Windows-only.)

Truly, you're looking at rewriting Visual Studio to get it on OSX. Heck, MS would probably be better off just buying Scrawl and rebranding it as Visual Studio for Mac.

And remember: while .NET is going cross-platform, there are no public plans for a cross-platform UI toolkit; there is no cross platform WinForms or WPF from Microsoft.
Small details: it seems from the screenshots that the screen 'glows' so that the bezel of the display has a tint of the most prominent color on screen. That's a great touch that makes it look more real than a terminal within a static frame.
You're describing binding sockets for other processes, which is a great feature and has been standard practice since forever.

Never heard about it before, but I would warn greatly against any one actually using Devuan in a production setting. If, down the line, Devuan can consistently maintain the work of pulling security updates from debian fast enough, or have their own security team doing the work, then and only then would I ever dare to use a different distro. Exception would be live-cd's, which tend to live in their own universe.

I've really liked the work that Etsy's devops team has done, with stuff like statsd, even though I never liked the company.

I hope they can survive the turmoil. Maybe they can move as a group to another company.
The article shows it's not about that

> Perhaps you think these 30 bugs are really tricky, deeply hidden and complicated logic monsters that would explain the time they took to get found? Nope, I would say that every single one of them are pretty obvious once you spot them and none of them take a very long time for a reviewer to understand.

For me the takeaway is that even something as basic and mature as curl can't get it right in C. Two buffer overflows in as many years, along with TLS and HTTP failures. It's past time to move onto better tools. I hope the "bitcoin piñata" calls attention to the fact that there's now a full SSL stack available in a substantially safer language.
The supply curve reflects costs to producers. Increase the cost to all suppliers and you shift the equilibrium price to right.
