Re:Unofficial guide to dotfiles on GitHub on Monday August 29, 2022 @04:29AM (#32635925)
Just wanted to mention Stow[1] here, which I use to symlink my dotfiles on a new machine on a per app basis for many years now. My set up script just installs basic compiler toolchain and runs a bunch of stow commands based on Linux/Mac OS. I also adhere to XDG base spec[2] so I can keep my ~/ clean.

Would've loved it if it wasn't a JUCE wrapper. Nevertheless, some great work here. The same approach can be applied to any non-JUCE stuff too, which would be kickass! :)

Re:Parallel Map in Elixir on Tuesday April 14, 2015 @04:48PM (#9377233)
When choosing to apply parallelism, it should never be about the length of the collection but only the computational intensity of the function that's being applied. There's a considerable overhead in spawning processes and collecting the result from them

Thanks Ashwin. So the main thing that differentiates us from other players is the philosophy that we have towards travel planning which we summarised in one of our blog posts: http://blog.planmy.travel/post/65971193858/what-do-instant-c...

Re:Why only few number of IIT kids end up doing startups on Monday July 09, 2012 @08:36AM (#4217814)
I thank you for making me realize that this post sounds offensive. I didn't mean it that way. I ll update the post with my apologies.

I would like to clear few things here.

[1] This is not a post against IITians or anybody for that matter. [2] I wrote this post out of concern and in search of a solution that will change the startup scene here in India. It sounds over-ambitious but I want to be a part of such a revolution, however little I contribute. [3] This article concerns only to related people. I hope I have conveyed that at least

"Of course, there are really pleasant opportunities available that one need not look at entrepreneurship as the only possible work. But my only worry is that people with real motivation also get lost in this place."

[4] I didn't mean it, when I told "IIT guys will never do it". I sincerely apologize again.
