I had this problem myself when using tmux (how to switch sessions quickly and easily). I ended up writing a shell script [1] to use fzf to display a list not only of sessions, but the windows within each session. Which I invoke from tmux li

We use bors as well. Our repo isn’t particularly active, a few dozen committers at any one time, but it lets us have pretty aggressive checks on master without having to run them separately for each PR before it lands. Definitely recommende

He doesn’t need to carpet bomb the whole country. He just needs to lay waste to Kyiv and Kharkiv with rocket artillery, maybe thermobaric weapons if he’s willing to commit even more unspeakable horrors. There was a TOS-1A sighted approach

I’m American, but lived in Kyiv for years and was lucky to get out just before the war started. I was hesitant at first about donating to this fund as well, but the reality is that this is an existential struggle for the Ukrainians. I’m not

I feel the same. What do you say in Slack to the guy who just told you he’s handed over his tasks to a colleague because he’s joining the territorial defenses and has to go and fight? “Good luck”? “Give ‘em hell”? “Слава Украины" is

I am American, moved to Kyiv almost four years ago. My startup engineering team is 100% in Ukraine. As the warning signs mounted I urged my people to consider leaving but no one, myself included, thought it would come to this. Of course n

My situation exactly. I’m American but I live in Kyiv, I was lucky to get out a few days before the invasion but my life, my team, and my property are still there. I try to focus on helping the guys still there find safety and arrange lodgi

Invoking the image of nazis is also a dog whistle directed at primarily older Russians. During WWII some Ukrainian forces initially joined the invading Nazi forces against the Soviet Union, which given how the Soviets treated Ukraine maybe

Not exactly what you're talking about, but I wanted an InstantPot badly here in Kyiv and the models available in Europe on 220V did not include the model I wanted, and cost alot more. So I imported into Ukraine a US InstantPot, and a

And part 2: As to what I've gained, which I think on balance is more than I've given up: - I met the girl who is now my fiance here. When living in the US I was quite certain I would never marry. I'm 41 so I've been ar

I wrote a long comment but it was too long, so I'm going to try to split it up into separate comments: Part 1: I moved from Miami to Kyiv, Ukraine three and a half years ago. I see a lot of interesting responses from Western Europe, b

FWIW, I've tried the Scaleway (Paris), MacStadium (Atlanta), and as of today also the Hetzner (Falkenstein, Germany) M1 offerings. The Scaleway service had such awful latency on the VNC connection that I found it almost completely unus

We've been using Hetzner boxes to run our self-hosted GitHub Actions runners for a couple years now, except for Mac which we have run in MacStadium. This offering is much cheaper than MacStadium though; EUR 49 compare to USD 129. I or

There were definitely some Crimeans who preferred to be part of Russia. But I don't think the referendum was free or fair. And even if we could say that 51% of them genuinely wanted to secede from Ukraine and join Russia, it doesn&#x

Hey, American here, I live in Kyiv. Things are as tense here as I've ever experienced since I moved here in 2018. Most Ukrainians I know don't think a full-scale invasion is likely, but I think that's just because contemplat

Granted this survey isn't robust enough to be taken as evidence of the superiority of unschooling or even homeschooling generally. It's anecdotal, and if I had to guess I'd say the target audience is parents who have already

I can somewhat relate to this. During my years as a homeschooled and then unschooled kid, I was very interested in chemistry, and then electrical engineering, and finally computer programming. My parents didn't have the faintest idea

All things being equal, I'm sure a random sample of children from the top SES quintile will have better educational outcomes then the bottom quintile (as measured by test scores, graduation rate, lifetime earnings, pick your metric).

Cool! Assuming it's a faithful port with source-level compatibility, it should work with the existing DTrace implementation I'm building. The differences between compiler toolchains are already abstracted away by the excellent `

Yes absolutely. Better docs are a top priority right now.

Great question. `rust-libprobe` was the original inspiration for `tracers`, and made me start to explore what else was possible. Everything that follows shouldn't be taken as criticism of `rust-libprobe` in any way; without cuviper&#

Yes exactly. The goal of this project is to let authors put trace points in their code and at compile time target whatever tracing system makes sense. On Linux that's either systemtap or ltt-ng. On Windows it (will be; not implemented

by anelson 7y ago
This crate is for enabling low-overhead tracing of userland Rust code. To that end it supports both systemtap and ltt-ng. Systemtap probes are available to eBPF instrumentation, so in that sense this does indirectly use eBPF. I know this is
