This is what aliases are for. alias exa-size='exa -bghHliS'

I guess everyone has their preferences. exa -bghHliS is too much info for me. I agree there should be a shorthand for "give me everything" though.

You can pretty much use it like ls for most things, so I'd say very little investment needed.

Thanks for the reply. This is what I'm trying to understand myself. I didn't see the 9% number in the article. I did see the mention about selection bias. So I wonder what the true numbers are here. If it's 9% then that expla

I think you are misinterpreting my posts. I'm just trying to make sense of all of this, myself. This report is eye opening to me and I just don't understand it. I understand and accept that the CTE rate for football players is qui

by Touche 9y ago
Is that really best-case scenario? So you're saying that among the retired football players who do TV today, Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long, Michael Strahan, Cris Collinsworth, etc. 90% of these players have CTE and will have decades-long

by Touche 9y ago
Hm, is it true that everyone with CTE dies "horribly"? I think that might be overstating things a bit.

Any other options? For the small team I work with managing infrastructure is not really an option.

What do people use as a PaaS provider for Erlang/Elixir?

It does have lists, but it doesn't give you the nice "while you were away" groupings like you get in your main feeds.

Unfortunately it's hard to follow more than 1 topic on Twitter. I follow a lot of people who talk about technology and a lot of people who talk about sports. But since I follow more people who talk about technology I hardly see much of

It's better because fewer people are poor and the number continues to decline: https://ourworldindata.org/extreme-poverty/ I guess that's worse than the utopian ideal of there not being any poor people at all

If you'll notice nearly everything he talks about is in relation to their podcasts, not the long form articles. There was a businessweek article a few weeks back that says The Ringer makes nearly (or perhaps all) of its money on podcas

Grantland was most likely in the red when it was shutdown.

This article speaks to the economics pretty well I think. The Ringer should do the same thing. From what we know they make nearly (all?) of their money on podcast ads anyways.

Ah the old "there were no poor people before capitalism" mistruth again. You might want to research what Mao did before defending it in any why. But you're right, communism the idea is not genocidal, just all of its promine

The appeal is speed. I think you see the appeal. You don't see the logistics. Which is fair.

I know :) That's why I said "too bad". We can't fix the cost of living in cities problem if the only place it's convenient to live is already-big cities.

by Touche 9y ago
That's a great start! A hyperloop would be half that (or more), so obviously it's more attractive for that reason.
620.
by Touche 9y ago
Yeah, for sure, but the people in these articles were buying $350k homes so they are already pretty well off. I don't think any of these people chose the commute option because they couldn't afford a place in the city (just not as

It's common in consulting roles where the company you consult for is paying for your apartment/hotel. Probably not so common for W2 employees unless you are an upper level executive perhaps. I'm sure the people in this artic

Note that this does vary from person to person. I know people who can sleep anywhere but I personally find it very difficult to sleep sitting up. I pretty much never sleep on planes, for example, no matter how little sleep I've had or

That only solves one chore. There's general cleaning of the house, cooking, doing the dishes, laundry. Taking the dog to the vet, taking the car in for an oil change. Picking up the dry cleaning. I probably spend 2 hours every day aft

by Touche 9y ago
Yeah, good point. It could also serve to grow smaller cities. I imagine something like Albany would be an attractive option, if they could afford to build a hyperloop there.

by Touche 9y ago
It's too bad the hyperloop idea is focused on city->city transportation. It could be an incredible tool to combat the increasing cost of living in cities. Imagine living this far away but getting to work in 30 minutes. Housing price

This doesn't seem too fair to their spouses, who essentially are responsible for all weekday chores. Perhaps the commuters can do stuff like personal finances on the train... but that's basically it.

It was too late. Chrome for Android was not the default for about 3 years iirc and had good market share.

That's fine, but I wonder if that carries over to most people. There have been plenty of studies that suggest perceivable slowness has a large effect on user engagement. Amazon famously did a study on their website that showed 100ms of

I just tried on two popular websites, espn.com and cnn.com, and Firefox was slower to first paint on both, noticeably. No extensions installed on Firefox but a few on Chrome. It's slower.
