LOL (Let Over Lambda) is fun to read if you are not try to get the information in your head as fast as possible but rather read two or three pages a day very carefully and feel how your brain bends :) It is a hardcore technical book, but the language (Common Lisp) will not make you more money in 2020 or boost your new startup faster to market. So, read it to entertain your brain, it is worth it!

doom-emacs looks very nice, but development stopped on January? There is an "development" branch, which is ~4000 commits ahead from master. The documentation suggests fetching the master branch, so whats the deal here?
I use the us-intl keyboard layout with an us keyboard, which works great for English and German text without switching layouts (I am German).
I am not sure about that (biggest battery in the world). This looks like a battery "pack" (an array of batteries connected in parallel/series). This looks like just a marketing thing to me, because there is nothing new or special about it. Just "the biggest".
Germany is also working on big batteries for years, but with a completely different strategy. A redox-flow battery with polymers and saline solution (https://www.nature.com/articles/nature18909) Here is a recent german article about it (http://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/technik/brine4power-so-fu...)
This kind of batteries will hold 700 MWh.
Very nice game!
Here are some thing I've notices during playing it.
* There is no usefull coding workflow. Thats how I do it: CTRL+o, enter filename, write some code, ESC, CTRL+ENTER, CTRL+UP, ENTER, oh an error, CTRL+o, enter filename, .... That is a little bit tedious.
* Without syntax highlighting, typos occur everywhere :)
* If there is an error in a script, the stacktrace shows a line number. But the editor does not have line numbers, so I have to count it manually. That sucks.
* Switching between modes would be nice. So switching from the mail view to the editor an back again (with the file and the mail opened) would be nice. A lot of time, there are some bits an pices in the mail which are relevant in the flight mode or in the editor (station names, some hints etc.)
* I've crashed the game and brought it to a point it can't be played any more. (https://p.fu86.de/1468240067-8920.png) (I think I've done ship.docs.msg1 = dofile(...), which caused the problem). Even if I wipe the savegame and use the stock config, the game crashed again after a few seconds.
I am only guilty for the first 100 LOC, the rest is not my fault :)
I wrote a hacky bash script back in 2000 to manage HalfLife dedicated servers (start, stop, edit basic config stuff) for a friend. This script (I initially called "hl.sh") is later renamed into "hl-monster.sh", and finally to "hl-monster-extended.sh" with ~15000 LOC, supporting 120+ different Games and is running on ~2000 really big servers around the world. This script is the core of a big international company now. I joined this company 3 years ago and since then, we try to replace this script, but it is so deeply merged into all systems.
What have I done?
.. or immutant or jetty or ....
Buildinng a simulated production environment on the dev machine is hard because in production, there are (in most cases) special settings, special servers, special configurations, special files on special places, ... It is rarely out of the box configured service stacks.
If you are hosting gameservers, it just does not fit.
We have a shitload of servers running CentOS for historical reasons. We can't change the distribution because all the services running on this servers are tight to the quirks and special cases of this distribution. So we need to live with CentOS.
Some of our newer services need a up to date version of glibc and a lot of other dependencies CentOS can't provide. So we use docker to boot up Ubuntu 14.04 containers and run the services with special needs in them.
Another great thing is isolating scripts we don't trust. We allow our customers to run scripts of all kind on our servers --> inside Docker containers. So the customers can't mess with the hostsystem.
Love this kind of presentation! Do you use any external libs or tools to build the page?
This was my first linux distribution and I loved it!
I hope, his USB-stick doesn't get corrupted or unreadable ...
Booring as usual. "Great" job, AVOS Systems. :/
I'd prefer Greasemonkey/Tampermonkey for this kind of task.
Sorry, but no explanation at all what/how you trying to do. Sounds like some sort of random brain dump for me.
Try a mail address you have full control over it (see the /var/mail/mail.log to verify exactly there is no connection made by ycombinator.org).
I am not a ycombinator staff member (I even have no own business or live in USA or speak English native) but this site is a friednly free-to-use service, not Paypal or Starbucks where you can blame the staff for delivering the coffee too hot.
This does not work for me. If I type "tree -" and press [tab], nothing happens.

Is this just a relict from the past or is this a showstopper for me? (I use an Debian-based system)
