https://gleam.run/ Gleam is super promising.

We've been running a large web application backend written in Elixir for over three years now. It's awesome and we've also rewritten some of our microservices to utilize Distributed Erlang. No need for a service mesh this way. :-)

We deploy Erlang VMs to EC2 and they communicate just fine. Deploying via a Dockerfile and `mix release` has been a breeze.

As a bonus point, no real need for container orchestration as the BEAM just figures it out.

Hmm. Please could you explain further? I'm genuinely curious what costs you associate with Hashicorp products.

We use Nomad from Hashicorp, it's super simple. Never liked the complexity K8s brings along.

Congratulations on launching!

How does this compare to Fantastical? It does the same for me, just puts a giant Zoom icon next to its menubar icon and clicking on it lets me join my next meeting.

"Thinking, Fast and Slow" is a book I buy for every person for their first birthday after I met them. It is the book that has had the most profound impact on me thus far.

I host my own VPN and it's great. Algo VPN [0] makes it dead simple, as well.

systemd uses cgroups, yes.

My experience with Zulip has also been pretty great. We (a startup) found that it keeps the conversation more focused.

Just yesterday I was designing something on my iPad Pro and had to save it to Local Storage (which is another great app, btw) only to use Blink to scp it over. SCP in the end didn't work (in Blink) with key authentication, so I had to resort to https://transfer.sh/

Complex, and this might make it a lot simpler. Thanks!

Awesome! Plugins like this make me want to make the switch to emacs from vim sooner than ever.

Correct - there has to be a clear indication that you are consenting. It can't just be hidden away in a 60 page document in a statement that says "I consent to being tracked, etc".

Could you elaborate what issues does it come with? I'm biased since I grew up in an area with street names and a consecutive system, but genuinely interested in hearing more.

The idea of avoiding context switches by using memory regions to communicate with the kernel reminds me of FlexSC[0], which was a way to have "async" system calls and "flexible scheduling" of them.

(2017) missing from title.

Does vim-racer[0] not work for you? I don't exactly know what you mean by "good autocomplete", but if you are more specific, then maybe we can help you a little more? :-)

FWIW, my Rust setup in vim is mostly the following plugins:

* NERDCommenter, for commenting stuff

* rust.vim, for general rust things (like integration with rustfmt, playground, and the next two plugins)

* tagbar, for showing the list of tags (of the ctags-esque sense) in a sidebar.

* syntastic, for on-the-go syntax checking.

Let's not forget the Biscuit operating system by MIT just recently published at OSDI'18:

- The paper: https://pdos.csail.mit.edu/papers/biscuit.pdf

- The code: https://github.com/mit-pdos/biscuit

I would use the money to learn on the side, then move on to a new company (or create my own!)

Not really, I used ^C as an alternative to Esc for a while. Sadly, ^C isn't entirely the same as pressing Esc or ^] .

I just checked - I'm actually using my left ring finger instead of my pinkie for some reason.

Remapped Caps Lock to Esc...

I’ve recently written a blurb on this board for the OSDev Wiki[0], might be helpful.

I was also thinking of porting Tock OS to the board and would love to collaborate.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat. That was a pretty sad move on their part considering their argument about extended attributes made no sense whatsoever.

I personally switched over to MegaSync, I have an account from a while ago that has 50GB space for lifetime, which is enough for my PDFs.

Exactly my thoughts. If an interviewer said that during a phone call, then I'd wave good bye and hang up as that is simply not a sentiment I can be OK with.

This looks like an interesting processor and 7nm sounds great, however since the process size became mostly a marketing term, is there a comparison of Apple’s process sizes to that of GlobalFoundries and Intel?

I would also like to recommend https://app.nytimes.com/ , which is a different approach to the same content.

Good to see the 6 months Premium for EU users, but I am still unconvinced; I switched to Pocket after the GDPR fiasco, is there any reason to switch back?

I use a Corsair K63 Wireless mechanical keyboard with the Cherry MX Red switches.

It's a great keyboard and being wireless (both 2.4Ghz and Bluetooth) is a great addition when I'm travelling.

hey! of course, join us on Freenode's #osdev channel :)
