Debugging can be pain though, as you may not know the right stack, and makes it harder to follow how the code executed in that context. But yes, rather than writing an async state machine with callbacks, I would prefer this.

If I'm not mistaken, another argument for microkernel was the isolation of each modules. For example, if I'm using some driver X and it crashes, rest of my system will continue to work fine. That's not the case with monolithi

Also, Apple TV doesn't do YouTube (and other Google things) at 4K. Which sucks, considering you are spending like $200, and YouTube is probably you would use the most.

So, I use Dell XPS 13 personally, and when I got MacBook Pro 15 2018 model, I was super unhappy with size of trackpad. It took a while, but I got used to it and now prefer over my XPS-13 trackpad. The trackpad was always amazing (force touc

I saw JavaScript and for a moment, and I was like - "Oh no, not electron again", and moment later I was happy to see that it was not Electron!

To me, it seems like gym isn't the place. I've been taking group class for over 4 months. I've not made a single friend in this time. People come on time, do the class, pack up their shit quickly and leave. It is in bay area,

`unreasonable load` sounds pretty vague. What counts as unreasonable? 10 VMs doesn't sound like much, and I believe if I'm renting a VM with XYZ specs, I should be allowed to use up-to max capacity it says so in specs. What am I m

As a person who doesn't develop for browser, I'm always super impressed and envious of tooling. I occasionally (once in several months), would use some of these tools for some random small thing I made and I could just get started

I expected someone would make such response, and that is exactly why I was talking about people who already made it to US, and talk of that demographic. I by no means, am comparing him with the guy who took a job at Infosys, or he couldn&#x

A lot of people (from every kind of background) come to the US and work. I would say someone dad's being an IAS would have almost zero impact on stepping up in the career ladder in a US tech company, however, being from a prestigious u

My main complain is that whenever I start the desktop client after few days, it takes forever to load the old messages. I'm not sure, but I think it tries to download all messages and attachments before showing the UI, which can be pot

I moved from Vim work roughly 6 years ago. I think Magit was the most mindblowing discovery I made after the switch. It is much more common now, and there is even a Vim equivalent I hear. I can't imagine using Emacs (or any editor) wit

Nice! It's been the best constant in my life for the past 6 years (well configs, plugins, and emacs evolved, but very smooth and usually with my pace). I would, however, love to hear a bit more on how you felt about the future of Emacs

Any articles/resources on writing high-performance JS that you would recommend? I don't use JS for work, but just for random fun stuff. So just curious to learn more about it.

Considering neither is the language I use for work, but just as a hobby, I often forget how to write code in these languages after a while. The amount of time to get back on track to write idiomatic OCaml is almost instantaneous as opposed

I wonder if there could be uBlock/AdBlock filter made for medium in general to block all this. I dunno the format of filter files, but it was easy to add a uBlock rule for a particular element using UI.

You are right. :(

Still reading the article, and I'm enjoying it so far. My only complain is the design of your blog. The header and the footer (to subscribe on Medium) takes so much space that there is relatively less space to read to actual content.

I use Dell XPS (2015) 4k model with Linux installed. I'm super happy with the laptop so far. I bought a refurbished i7 model when I was student, it still is the best laptop investment I've made so far. The issues I've had wit

I was like 20/21 then, without any kind of bills as they were all under parents name. I missed on elections, so didn't have election ID. I had an ICICI account though for years, and it was for a fact rejected back in 2014, and tha

Despite terrible service and security, I still opened an account few years ago. Why? Because statements from private banks are not a valid address for various purposes. I was hit hard because I needed a new passport, and they changed the ru

Yes. 2x worked perfect for me at 4k, and its the default for hidpi settings I think. When I switched to 1080p I had to manually increase font sizes (not overall scaling) because the default size wasnt sharp/readable enough. Its pretty

Yes, I also have the old 2015 model (3200x1800). Definitely, good enough in my opinion too.

I owe a Dell XPS 13 with 4k display running Linux. Fonts are clearly much more sharper (maybe even feel darker) and pleasant to read than 1080p or even 2k . Although, I see you point. For most practical purposes it does not make difference

Amazon I think tracks whatever it can. Whenever I visit a product, even if I didn't buy it the product (or something similar) will show up as "Continue shopping ...", and not very later as ads on my Facebook feed. It almost c

Ok, I can agree to the fact that companies may take advantage of immigrants like others have suggested. However, what the original comment said was specifically against Indians which sounds more like a racial bias (and for some reason it so

Plural of anecdote is not data, and certainly not when you are insinuating "indian managers" in particular to be worse than others and "indians" in particular creating toxic work environment.
