What looks particularly funny that it's OpenFaaS examples, such as in this post: figlet service. Several years ago it was simple binary, which you could invoke in console to produce fancy-stylized string. Now, same functionality require running figlet function-as-a-service inside Docker container inside Kubernetes cluster. I understand, that's merely an example, but nevertheless.

Did you show this story to different people? Can other people see that different people?

Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems that you're took phrase out of context and didn't get whole point.

I think good programmers are good because they have good problem solving capabilities, and that's what can be applied to any area.

So, some programmers with good problem solving capabilities just genuinely want to help and fix some problems they see outside of their direct area of responsibility — the code. And when managers are not listening to them, basically thinking 'why you ask questions, you should code', it's quickly becomes obvious that the only way to win is not to play.

This pictures reminds me about what one's can see under psychedelics. All sensory input basically begins to break down to that kind of patterns, and thus reality dissolves into nothing. This is equally terrifying and liberating depends on look. The terrifying thought is that there's no-one behind this eyes and ears. The liberating thought is that if there's no-one there, then there's no-one to die.

That's exactly what article is talking about.

It's fun how program learning to play teris pauses the game just before loosing.

Using movies as basis for decision is even worse.

Third possibility: we do not exist either.

I've been thinking on that topic for about a year now to justify my own behavior and actions.

Free will implies, that there should be genuine "actor", that's behind all one's choices and actions. If you will try to dig down and find your own actor, you soon will discover, that all choices produced by that actor are actually based on your previous experience, so all actions are actually predefined by your own experience.

The presence of genuine actor essentially leads to question "who is behind actor's actions?", which inevitably leads to infinite regress that can't be resolved.

I like to see how modern science there comes close to various teachings like Buddhism, moving from external world (non-self) to internal (self).

Most important point there is that law forces VPN providers to inspect client traffic and forbid access to blacklisted sites. I doubt that any of VPN providers will follow that path, so in turn access to them will be blocked by ISP (which is forced by another law).

That's how you can censorship everything you dislike.

Just leave USB stick somewhere in Nsk and I will catch it.

My super-quick checklist for new shells consist of only one point: does it decently support background tasks?

It seems that none of recently emerged shells had that point in their design:

- elvish: no (https://github.com/elves/elvish/issues/193).

- xonsh: no (https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/issues/1959).

- fish: no (https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/238).
