Exactly this. How many people who are commenting are missing the point is hilarious.

Fwiw, my take is that outrage culture has gone too far... maybe its time to play their game.

As per guidelines.."Please don't use HN for racial or national or religious or ethnic or any other kind of flamebait. This is all off topic for HN, and we ban accounts that post like this repeatedly."

Im gonna say it because Dang apparently isnt (to this comment)

As the saying goes, haters gonna hate.. best to ignore and carry on the process.

Extemely proud of ISRO.

Easy to criticize eh?

Since you were born of Indian parents, it will be easy for you to get OCI/PIO. Why dont you go there and start helping with alleviating poverty, corruption, water shortages and suffering? Come on...you can do it...

> I feel like India has more important problems to solve than this.

OK. Keep "feeling" and others will keep doing.

The legend himself. Waiting for this one for a few days.

Look up stuff by Rupert Spira, Michael Langford, Nisargadatta (already mentioned a few times in this thread), "The Ashtavakra Gita", "Dhammapada".

An older Thinkpad till some decent Ryzen based 4K laptops come out next year.

I just got me a T440P. Put in 16G, SSD (can put 2 more SSDs for a total of 3), its got a socketed i7 and a removable 9 cell battery for easier upgrades. I upgraded the default display (garbage) to a 1080p display (really simple ..done with a screwdriver) and this thing is a beast with Manjaro Linux and KDE or i3.

I also have an x230 with OpenBSD.

My old 2015 retina MBP is going to my dad who has a shitty old windows 10 spyware laptop.

Yawn. That would only be a problem if you choose to run Micro$oft software. And it is in your hands to fix the problem by going with Linux etc. (key word is choose...i realise it is imposed on many, specially in the enterprise world).

The Economist itself has a left wing bias.

IOW, Google and its properties continue their slow suicide/slide into irrelevance.

I’m still a novice functional programmer so this may be a dumb comment but I thought a lisp would be more thread safe due to immutable data structures.

I have had a tough time getting my 4k ext display to properly scale with i3. I tried arandr but the fonts are too small. With scaling , Emacs, Firefox and alacritty seem to be ok but things seem sluggish on my x230. How did you do it ?

I asked the same question and basically my findings are that unless you need .Net, stick to Ocaml for *nix systems

> Lucky for us

Are you sure?

Is there such a thing as race or is there not? For years, scientists have told us there is no such thing as race.

Also, if one is of mixed race, say white and Asian, are they considered to be from a racially diverse group or are they not?

Do you know how VMM performance compares to something like KVM2?

Elm, Elixir, Nim (no particular order, choose 1 based on interests etc)

Cool but which programming language (recent) would you recommend the OP looks at?

>> The consequences of joining were far less dramatic than the consequences of suddenly leaving.

I have no dog in this fight (not British or European) but this statement sounds like false equivalence to me.

Goruck GR-1. Benefits: - Padded laptop compartment helps keep laptop safe and easy access - Built like a tank, will last forever (made in USA!) - Outer and Inner organization pockets - Panel loading, can be fully opened by a side zip and easy to pack/unpack - Big enough for multi-day travel. I have used it as a carry on pack for upto 7 days (did laundry on the road). - Discreet enough (black) and fits into a corporate env without looking too tactical

Have no affiliation with GoRuck, am a happy customer

Yeah, I personally fail to understand this. I have definitely been guilty of it myself as well.

Every once in a while, I will come across a video on Youtube where some vlogger is at some beach in Thailand or popular touristy night market, or other backpacker haunt and I think, "why do we do this to ourselves?...might as well go to your local nightlife district/beach rather then flying to the other side of the world and going to their nightlife district/beach...". Seems boring.

Interesting timing on this. However, I just got org mode and reveal humming together using org-re-reveal and couldn’t be happier.

How is sway for a daily driver?

/s? ;-)

> and if you ask me the real hero of this story is his partner who believed in him enough to support him all the way to the end

Yeah. Just like the real victims of war are women and children. /s

And I’d love to give people who have similar views to you (on this matter) a -1 score for life. Who’s right?

Next will be male/female (in the context of wires, plugs, sockets etc) and it will be on a "spectrum of gender fluidity".

Political correctness/SJWism has gone insane and cannot be taken seriously.

Can anyone recommend a good blog theme? Themes.gohugo.io does not seem to have anything super appealing to me

Meh. Very one sided perspective contributing to further polarizing of the political landscape.
