Replying to myself - there are way, way more reasons. This was the <1 minute version.

There are so many different reasons, across the culture that this article is missing it. The government has introduced forced savings for Israeli employees, returned to the employees every 7 years. This means that EVERYONE (well, nearly) re

Of course there is. You can short, it's pretty profitable.

I'm happier with retext ( https://github.com/retext-project/retext ). Fully open-sourced, live preview, and taking ~50% less resources than Typora to deliver the same features. If I'm not using vim, I'm in

Exactly. You have to live with yourself forever. I'd much rather work to being the person I want to be, than letting someone else dictate who I am.

I love the idea - and it's definitely something I'll put through the paces on one of my projects shortly. Being able to separate the schema from data ingestion, and data transmission is a very powerful scale option for one of the

This is the sort of chilling effect that increased corporatization of society can have - but doesn't necessarily have to. Forbidding the sale of legal items, is a form of increased censorship, one society seems to be okay with.

Absolutely - rather predictably, but only within the segment I use. If you're an HFT trader you can't win. But if you have patterns you've noticed, can act on and encode... well quite frankly it's incredibly consistent o

Running the same passive project as 2017 - a day trading robot focused on Canadian (TSX) market conditions. It's been wildly successful closing positions on a nightly basis and exploiting market patterns that work at a scale that I car

Tell me about it. The whole thing makes me cringe. Frequently I wonder if the goal is just to have enough insurance, such that when people and their money are separated, life is fine.

It's rather sad that Canadian banks still view SMS as the best way forward. They'll text you, they'll email you, they'll validate over the phone... all of which are really this same problem. I'm waiting for the day

Thank you, I stand corrected - and can't spell bhyve today apparently :(.

I still desperately want docker support. I know I can bhive and friends - but native docker support is critical to my every day, unfortunately. Heck, I'll take super decayed docker support!

TIL there are people who still have cable. I assume it's just generational? I don't know anyone (including my parents) who have cable anymore - and that's very much limited to tech folks.

I keep trying them all - and I keep hating my answer. I've been trying to like Evolution since 2000, this year I've tried all the flavours of mutt/neomutt and combinations of things like offlineimap. I've tried KMail, G

I think it's brilliant, and applaud the child. IMHO people spend far too much time on their phones, and other devices. My devices are for work, they're rarely for play (yes, the occasional video game), but there's an intense

You're absolutely right. It's the reason we always use devpi for python mirrors, and firewall off CI. Ultimately you need to be able to rebuild the product when upstream goes poof.

Mind expanding on the coworking bit? I always think about hitting up a coworking just to have some human contact when I'm working on a project. I've yet to actually do it however.

I went on an archeological dig in the area in June (as a tourist) and can answer part of this. Part of the answer is writing materials; in Jerusalem a variety of different things were used to make the writing materials, whereas the Dead Sea

I wish systemd would just die a fiery death. Every two years I replace my environment - by design, to force growth. I've been doing this on Linux since 1993. In my most recent go-around, I hunted for a Unix distribution that could m

I finally ditched SpiderOak for SyncThing about a month ago - and I haven't looked back. It solves all of these issues, I fully host it myself, and I can access everything, exactly the way I want to based on shares. I have a machine in

Exactly this. We actually ended up rolling our own internally, as a quick project. It's just as bad as everything we hated, and has some of the features we loved. At the same time, it costs nothing now - so we've committed to usi

That's why you use AdNauseum instead. I read news, check the weather, and generally live my life. Combine it with ExplodingCookies and life is better than it was.

Concur, also from inside the industry. The reality is that almost every C-Suite executive I talk to sees security as a cost center, and rolls it (and IT even) into the CFO, or the COO. We focus on helping an organization make security an en
