I doubt yet another religion is the solution. If anything the cast system has shown that it is able to permeate other religions, which is even mentioned in the linked article.

I dont think that is a good enough reason to add touch screen. Do you have a better reason for adding one?

One of the reasons for me to keep using a Mac has been not having a touch screen. It has become very difficult to find non-Mac laptops without a touch screen now. I for one hope they never add it.

> The price would have evened out if labor could cross borders as freely as the goods that it produces.

Not really, if that was the case for ex, everyone doing similar jobs would be getting paid the same in US or EU. I am not saying things dont get evened out to an extent, but people are harder to move than the goods they produce.

Looks like nethogs dones't work well on macos.

Such arbitrary limits won't work, especially now. For ex: WhatsApp has about ~50 employes[0]. The kind of wealth and value you can create with few people in software is very dissimilar to other sectors which (at least for now) requires a large number of people involved to be viable.

Another issue is what do you consider as part of a company? In the case of uber, would it include all the drivers or are they there on individual companies?

I guess all this comes down to what you are optimizing for: Quality of life for a median human or overall inequality. I think right now it is optimized for the former.

Monzo has a proper API[1] that you can use to get transaction and other info without going through some third company like plaid.com. Obviously better long term solution would be for all banks to agree on a standard API and easy access to it. But given that is not going to happen, this seems like a welcome improvement.

What I have noticed is that emacs gets most of the cool things really quickly. You might not get many complex UI elements like a sidebar that are very popular, but other stuff like language server or linters etc that are built for VScode or for specific languages gets a lot of love from emacs user community.

Shouldn't it be `A Bash&Python Script...`? I am finding the use of `An` there very jarring.

AFIK, thats not unit testing. When you can write unit tests, they are usually lighter, faster to run and easier to maintain. You would use Selenium for integration testing.

Is there any update blog or something? This is one of those projects I am very exited about, would love to follow the progress.

Thank you apple, for not putting a touchscreen on that. As a developer One of the reasons I use mac is that, it is one of the few high end laptops without a touch screen.

So you tried Rust. Then what happened? I am interested since I have been trying out rust myself.

Isn't an emacs buffer exactly that? Depending on what modes are turned on the way the file data is presented will also change.

For ex, how you can open a svg file, if you use the image mode you see the image representation otherwise you get the code.

Except I as an Indian (as in from Republic of India), thought this was about English in India. I was totally surprised!

What is wrong with UK these days?

There is a lot of these kind of news coming out of UK in the last few months.

As a developer my experience has been the direct opposite. Getting my first job at a startup was a the best decision for me. I think I have more width (rather than depth) of knowledge because of it, (since I worked in wider verity of roles).

Maybe for a designer this is different. Probably the title should point this out?

As an example one of the Pharma companies mentioned Novartis is very much profitable. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2014-10-28/novartis-t...

Can't help it. I have to mention http://magit.vc/.

There is an 80 char limit on subject!!! so had to cut short.

How does this compare with magit?

Also are there places where Preforce is still better than git/hg?

The third part of this course seems to be about OTP. Maybe thats a good place to start.

One of the thing Cheney says in his talk about gb is that nobody likes the .lock files[1], I see that dart is using .lock files, bundlers also uses .lock files as does rust.

But other languages seems to get away without it.. clojure with lenigen seems to do it nicely.

So what are the problems with it?

Biggest thing about yaml for me was that you can have comments. This is very useful especially when you use it for configuration.

For data interchange, I don't see a lot of advantages to yaml though.

The problems you mention seem generic issues others face when using clojure in similar ways. So may be we can convince clojure core developers to add hooks that provide these features without having to introduce new fileextensions each time somebody needs to refer an extra namespace by default.

Just a suggestion. But the current solution seems reasonable until then.

One of the things that nags me about boot, is that it recommends using file extension `.boot`. Is it just me?

Is there any specific advantages to using another file extension rather than using `.clj`

I would love to contribute to it, but I am not an expert on the subject. Its just something I tried to do a while back, but couldn't find a clean way.

Let me see if I can figure it out and will try to give you a pull request.
