Yes, Viridis is quantifiably better than Parula, as the talk shows, but Parula comes with the standard Matlab, and the jump from Jet to Parula was of such a tremendous magnitude that I kind of fell in love with the Parula color scheme right away. Jump from Parula to Viridis would be less noticeable, I guess.
The talk opened my eyes to the fact that there are much better ways to use color for information presentation. (Sorry for the late reply)
I am not colorblind, but work with data visualization in Matlab a lot. This hilarious SciPy2015 talk[1] convinced me to switch to the Parula color scheme. There's no way I'm going back to Jet.
All right, since everybody seems to have read the handbook, here's something fresh: Gabe Newell's email [0], taken from today's r/Steam, where he shares his thoughts behind the flat company structure which Valve is so famous for.
This reminds me of another story by Leo Traynor about troll's victim tracking down and finally meeting the troll: http://www.traynorseye.com/2012/09/meeting-troll.html
The massive amount of damage that can be imposed by all kinds of online manipulators to their victims' mental health and career is even more depressing than the complete absence of a solution to the problem. At least I'm glad to hear that breaking the 'Do not engage' rule brought some relief to Kathleen.
Could you please outline your final setup besides using Geiser? I also come from Vim-land, have almost zero experience with Emacs and already understood that, to learn SICP, setting up and learning Emacs is going to be easier than setting up Vim for the task.
Well, I bought a 3-year reserved heavy utilization plan just a couple of hours before these news went live. My pain is about 2 orders of magnitude less than yours, though. I wonder if you can contact someone at Amazon and ask for some kind of discount.
Anyway, what a massive drop in price and what a swift reaction from Amazon. Competition can really do wonders. I just hope we won't be seeing drops in the level of service.
> this is still just a few thousands of extremists being destructive... Most adult people want this to stop and get back to work.
I'm not even going to ask you how exactly do you know this, because this is completely untrue. There are hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Ukrainians who already actively expressed their support to current shift in Ukrainian political landscape and their distrust to corrupt politicians currently in charge of the country, call it a war or a revolution. Arguing that and calling them "few thousands of extremists" is laughable - just have a look at any of the livestreams. Also, most adult people are at work. Ukraine is a big country.
From your comments I conclude that they have some agenda behind them. You are either trolling, deliberately trying to misinform HN community, or doing both of those things.
