I like Ruby for one off scripts, too. In some cases though, I don't like having to install Ruby. If Elixir, or perhaps Erlang, is on the target box, an Elixir Escript is also a good option. I've picked up a fair bit of bash for

Here's a list of things Elixir things I love: - pattern matching - immutable data - built-in supervision tree - async message passing w/ mailboxes - networking modules - much of Elixir is written in Elixir Here's stuff I&#x27

I love Elixir, and came from Ruby. I do find it hard to describe to people why I like it more it more. There is no one thing that is a killer feature to me. I do not miss inheritance at all.

What might have happened is the opponent left on their 2nd turn before they rolled they dice. I honestly didn't notice on the first turn. A different option could be showing "waiting for opponent to roll". I hadn't tho

I like it. A couple suggestions: - show the opponent's dice roll - show pieces taken off the board (or where they will be put). Good work!

The short version is yes, it is worth applying. If you're trying to get into a niche market, there will only be so many opportunities available. If you only apply to things for which you feel qualified, you may eliminate your chances

I enjoy teaching people who like learning. The effort required to teach those who aren't that curious saps my energy, and eats into time I need to advance my own skills. I didn't work super hard to learn what I've learned j

That strategy works if you have enough demand for your skills, and you don't price yourself out.

Calling a cab has always sucked for me in San Francisco. Often i couldn't reach a dispatcher, and when I did, they never committed to actually send a cab. Also, cabs are not cheap. These days, if I can't get an UberLyft, I take

Being bold can include doing what you think is right, knowing that taking a stand will be extremely hard. Say an Islamaphobic Congress passes a law that bans wearing turbans, and that becomes extremely popular. A bold for someone in the ex

I used Silicon Valley Bank for a year or two. I thought I'd be running a startup, but ended up with a small business. SVB was not a great small business bank, but I can see how they'd be an awesome partner if I was running a fun

It's not really about fair, or founder vs. employee. It's a liquidity thing. The following is an example I totally made up, but it'll sort of give you an idea of how it could work. Say you found a company, the company is st

If it helps, I saw it. If you hadn't need the original, you might think it was OK. I was mildly entertained, but not impressed.

I got an MBA. Going into the program, I was super excited about it. Coming out, I was pretty frustrated. I felt like it gave me a lot to think about without teaching me how to do any of it. I was not an master of administering a busines

My observation was that job applicants who tried to get the job by making a notable effort to show genuine interest in a specific opportunity seemed to be the one's who eventually got the job. Being interested doesn't make one qu

I don't know if this addresses your question but... Check out 'runc'. It is the tool Docker uses to start a Docker container. In that program, there is a '-u' option to start a container as whatever user ID (not u
