My developer machines I have a neovim setup with a bunch of extra config and plugins, but when doing remote work I often have to use vanilla vi or vim.. and I just put up with it. If I need to do something significant, i'll scp the fil

Yes.. but if my child is unwell and feels like they want to talk to a parent.. and they have the means to do so.. I do not feel the school has the right to stop them.. especially if it might comfort the child.

Had an email to all parents today, saying that if your child is unwell.. they are still not allowed to call their parents to let them know. I'm contemplating a strongly worded response..

If you are developing within a docker container, how do you get as far as CI before you have tested it working locally?? The whole point of using docker containers is to have the same development experience locally, in CI and in prod.. not

I couldn't disagree more, i'm based in the UK.. but I've worked internationally with engineers varying from without college education to people with PhD's... both are competent in their area of expertise and are right in

I'm not convinced the memory usage would be very high.. but doing some measurements would be interesting. Avoiding network namespace and by using --net=host should allow dbus to run. Allowing updatedb to look in /var/lib&#x

If his car has HW1, then the strict adherence to the speed limit on non-highway roads only came out within the last 2 weeks. Prior to this update, AP would work up to 90 MPH and close gaps as needed - with the driver determining the peak s

Whilst I only have empirical evidence to go on, I will say that when I have used autopilot.. I've felt like I am paying more attention as I am not distracted with keeping the car placed central in the lane and following the slight curv

Have you tried the autopilot? If you haven't.. you really need to. It isn't as scary as you might think. It is essentially cruise control for the steering wheel. If you move the steering wheel just a few millimetres, it diseng

Essentially.. except possibly the most used feature: autosteer on HW1 works up to 90MPH on highway (but since the recent update it is now limited on non-highway to the current speed limit on HW1), but with HW2 and this rollout it is limited

I can only agree with your 'quite extreme' classification, if you also agree that a physical chat between you and I in the your house (especially if we are sat in the bath or bed) should also be freely evesdropped... otherwise we

Yep, there have been many arguments on Debian that it isn't disributable as it isn't compatible with DFSG (Debian Free Software Guidelines). Also, google code hosting removed it as it wasn't Free Software... which was quite i

Rate me down... but do you disagree that despite this, the MBP will be a success? Or am I being rated down for not knowing of a US Centric organisation?

Indeed, I'm British and certainly not young. Never heard of it over here... and I just asked around and nobody around me has.

I'm not really a fan of Mac's, but I don't think too much weight should be put on this. Everything that Apple delivers is greeted with negative reports, and yet it turns out to be successful. Also... i've never even h

I've been on 6 EU flights since the US ban went into place. 2 were BA, 1 was Norwegian, 2 were flybe and 1 was wizzair. However, none of them said we could not have them on board.. but we were told that they must be off, and not char

So the people I know that use Uber in multiple cities (mostly for work), spanning multiple employers and multiple countries and locations is a 'filter bubble' - but the inverse perception from you is common sense? I'd say it

Android airplane mode doesn't disable GPS (which is receive only), seemingly unlike iPhone. I'm guessing that the Uber app does some geofencing with hard-coded coordinates of popular locations, such as airports - to provide notif

Read the law.. not the DMV's interpretation of it. They aren't currently testing autonomous vehicles. EDIT: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13181514

And neither does the DMV... Which as stated in the previous thread on this, it seems they are exceeding the legislation that covers this. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13181514
