This is a short, readable book with smart insights, and along the way he crosses paths with some colorful characters.

Iger does a great job explaining what it is like to be a CEO.

In one important respect, the new book is a significant departure from their previous one. Poor Economics, as its name suggests, focused on poor countries. Good Economics for Hard Times focuses instead on the policy debates that are getting so much attention in wealthy countries. (Obviously, since it was written long before the coronavirus pandemic, it doesn’t touch on that issue.) Although it’s clear that their real expertise is microeconomics (the study of how individual people make decisions) rather than macroeconomics (the study of how an overall economy behaves), Banerjee and Duflo are good at assembling and explaining the facts behind contentious issues like immigration, inequality, and trade.

True words

Everyone wonders what it's really like in space, but very few of us have ever had the chance to experience it firsthand. This captivating illustrated collection brings together stories from dozens of international astronauts—men and women who've actually been there—who have returned with accounts of the sometimes weird, often funny, and awe-inspiring sensations and realities of being in space. With playful artwork accompanying each, here are the real stories behind backwards dreams, "moon face," the tricks of sleeping in zero gravity and aiming your sneeze during a spacewalk, the importance of packing hot sauce, and dozens of other cosmic quirks and amazements that come with travel in and beyond low Earth orbit.

In Bash, the history command is capable of much more than what's been covered here, but this is a good start for getting used to using your history instead of just treating it as a reference. Use the history command often, and see how much you can do without having to type commands. You might surprise yourself!

I recently noticed that zsh and fish will instead show a character indicating a missing linefeed, and still start the prompt where you’d expect to find it:

vidarholen-vm2% echo -n "hello zsh"
hello zsh%
vidarholen-vm2%

If you’re disappointed that this is what there’s an entire blog post about, you probably haven’t tried to write a shell. This is one of those problems where the more you know, the harder it seems

[...] the signal name stands for "Segmentation Violation".
So it's essentially: SIGnal SEGmentation Violation.

But there's more!

Originally the signal was called SIGSEG. It was subsequently renamed SIGSEGV
in the userspace and a bit later - around 1980 - to SIGSEGV on the kernel
side.

Das erste Notebook weltweit mit Dual-Display und E Ink

Das Yoga Book C930 vereint einen brillanten QHD-Bildschirm mit einem zweiten E Ink-Bereich, der mehrere Funktionen erfüllt. Darüber hinaus entlastet es die Augen und reduziert den Stromverbrauch. Mit nur einem Mausklick wandelt sich das E Ink-Display von einem Skizzenblock zu einer flachen Halo Tastatur oder einem E-Reader.

Love the keyboard <3

Surviving Tomorrow contains twenty-nine stories about survivors, over half of them original and published here for the first time. Struck by a desire to help people as the pandemic unfolded, editor Bryan Thomas Schmidt decided to try and use his skills as an anthologist to raise funding for COVID-19 support by creating an anthology with two purposes—fundraising and provide readers with stories that would speak to them as they manage the stress of our changing social landscape.

This beautiful 6x9 gold-embossed hardcover special edition of the book has a metal clasp and will be number plated as it comes off the press. It fits in the same shelf space as a standard hardcover but is also suitable for a coffee table display. Lets face it - it just looks awesome and you’ll feel super fancy reading it. Also makes an epic gift…

The Worm showcases over 300 images from NASA’s archives chosen with one simple criteria: each photograph must feature ‘the worm’.

Together, these images demonstrate not only the extent to which Danne & Blackburn’s 1975 NASA Graphic Program had been implemented before being rescinded in 1992, but also the incredible achievements by NASA personnel.

The unfinished final chapter of the book will showcase the return of the worm, as it flies once again aboard a SpaceX rocket on May 30, 2020.

Maersk is the world’s largest integrated shipping and container logistics company. I was massively privileged (no pun intended) to be their Identity & Access Management (IAM) Subject Matter Expert (SME), and later IAM Service Owner. Along with tens (if not hundreds) of others, I played a role in the recovery and cybersecurity response to the events of the well-publicised notPetya malware attack in 2017. I left Maersk in March 2019, and as is customary I wrote the obligatory thank you and goodbye note. But there was always a lot more to add. A story to tell.

These are great tools and essential to many system administrators' workflows. However, in recent years, the open source community has developed alternative tools that offer additional benefits. Some are just eye candy, but others greatly improve usability, making them a great choice to use on modern systems. These include the following five alternatives to the standard Linux command-line tools.

In order to contribute to historical awareness in our field, we have compiled a list of interaction design classics. Our aim was to include examples that we find inspiring and insightful — which led to our greatest challenge, keeping in mind that we wanted to create a concise list — leaving things out. So, we decided to focus on productivity software — in a very broad sense — and to order the projects chronologically. We didn’t address user interfaces from games, websites or artistic projects; that really would have been too much.

Notice the line makepdf & makedoc & openapp. Here I am are running the 3 functions in parallel. The wait command does exactly that, waiting for the previous things to finish. When everything is done, the pdf file opens. Let’s look at the timing now:

real 0m24.677s
user 0m21.669s
sys 0m1.746s

It is running ~27% faster. Only by wrapping the code in different functions.

As an extra, in bash the code is not evaluated all at once. If you edit a script while it is being executed, the script behaves differently. Wrapping it in functions solves that problem too.
