1. Emacs is not an IDE. 2. Emacs has an amazing help system, it is highly discoverable.

So you guys don’t trust the polls results because polls in Russia are obviously inaccurate. You also don’t trust the Russians who said that from their experience, there’s still a huge number of people supporting the current president - beca

The fact that there’s no proofs, alone, says something. Telegram has been around for 7 years. There’s no external funding and yet the project lives and grows. It’s either being funded from the Durov’s pocket, or from elsewhere. Take your pi

People use email because it’s the best communication system existing. If someone doesn’t want to change his address he creates his own self-hosted mail server. Or just use his own domain name when using email service with thord party email

I recently had an interview with ExpressVPN and it was a bit different experience. I had a video call with the hiring manager with full disclosure (name/linkedin profile). I investigated the company a little bit - it was registered on

I would say that listing anything as a skill implies knowing of how it works under the hood, until stated otherwise. It’s a resume, not a list of random TIL facts.

I don’t think that git forces you to use all these bells and whistles. Also I am not sure if ls would be better with additional flags, but it won’t be worse because of that, that’s for sure.

Sure there is - the difference is so huge that I don’t see any similarities. Though professional software should not direct you, thus limiting you in choices. Your expertise should do that. And if your expertise is not enough to make an edu

Cisco Contact Center Express. This is a pure disaster, this damn thing is full of hilarious bugs that exist there for many years through many major versions. One of examples: if you click 2 (or more) links in its web interface and open the

1. No, why? 2. Well I never argued with that, but no one in the whole world ever called them “blacks”.

by allarm 6y ago
Well, I’m not saying that they’re not aware of the races per se. I’m saying that “black” for them means the name of the color, again, not the racial reference. That’s why renaming blacklist/whitelist things is a very american-centric t

I really liked how you combined “knee-jerk reaction”, “oh no, they’re not racists, they just look like racists and behave like racists, but that’s just because they were deeply traumatized” and “I don’t have anything in common with those ra

So you’re saying that the censorship by corporations is not a thing? )

Accusing Facebook in that it’s like accusing sugar companies in diabetes. Not saying the problem doesn’t exist, but maybe they just abuse Facebook? I’m spending around 10 minutes a week in my fb account, checking on friends and family, that
