This seems very unlikely. In neovim help docs there's a paragraph in file `nvim.txt`
Nvim is emphatically a fork of Vim, not a clone:
compatibility with Vim (especially editor and Vimscript
features) is maintained where possible. See |vim
differences| for the complete reference of differencesfrom
Vim.
nvim maintainers believe the project diverged and compatibility is best effort at this stage. Essentially, there's no plan to merge the two projects at this stage and the benefits are not evident.
For long form conversations, I strongly recommend Conversations with Tyler Cowen. Lex Friedman is also good. But if I have to pick one, it will be Tyler Cowen, mainly due to the host. The variety and depth of knowledge that Tyler posses is awe inspiring. I do not get bored listening to his questions. But I get bored listening to Lex.
If I've to recommend some episodes, Vishy Anand (Chess), Lazarus Lake (Endurance Running), Can't find this: an interview with a guy who is walking around the world. He is currently crossing China and walking East. And many more ...
There's some strong views about ThePrimeagen in this thread. Just want to share my experience. I've spent tonnes of time configuring Vim, Neovim etc. Its ... a ... mess.
I love both editors and for the love of me, I don't know why configuring them is soooo hard and brittle.
ThePrimeagen videos on Vim/Neovim is by far information dense videos. It took me sometime to ignore his style of presentation and just focus on content. However, the value I got out of watching his videos is undeniable. Knowing his background a bit and how he battled addiction gave me some context. (Sorry can't find that video on his channel now)
Continuing on this topic of Vim/Neovim ...
Leeren Chen (https://www.youtube.com/@leeren_) is pure genius on the topic of configuring Vim. I've never seen another person like him on Youtube, who uses Vimscript to configure Vim to make it work like an IDE (almost).
TJ Devries (https://www.youtube.com/@teej_dv) videos on Neovim are awesome too (He's core dev of Neovim). But there's lot of gimmicks in his video and it can put people off. His videos with @BashBunni is very approachable in terms of learning about and configuring Neovim.
Aprenticed to a Himalayan Master (A Yogi's Autobiography) by Sri M. I've completed reading this book few hours back. Growing up in India, it's common to hear many fantastical stories of great Himalayan Yogi's and their super powers. Last such book was "Autobiography of a Yogi" by Sri Paramahamsa Yogananda. This book is written by a great Yogi who left his house around 19 years old in search of a Master and traveled to Himalayas. Author warns that lot of people will be skeptical of what he is about to share, but he wrote it for benefit of many and let the skeptics work it out themselves.
I believe him. And boy, what a ride it is.
Teleportation, talking to beings from other planes, Yeti, walking through doors, etc
Yet, for true spiritual seeker, all these super powers are distraction and insignificant.
About 9 months back I relocated to India and started listening to Scaler Pod (https://www.youtube.com/@SCALER). It's focused on startups in India, and interviews their CTO or SVPs.
Two personal favorites: Dukaan CTO Subhash Choudhary[1] and Rippling Co-Founder Prasanna Sankar[2]
Netflix also played a huge role in raising salary bar.
Anecdote: In 2008, I was working at Ericsson in San Jose, as a junior software engineer on edge routers. I was paid ~$140K (bonus + RSU). We heard that very senior engineers were paid around $180K. Cisco was sought after place in our industry (Networking). They would pay ~$225K for senior engineers.
(all numbers are unverified and rumors).
Then one of my peer at Ericsson, a junior engineer, had an offer from Netflix and told during lunch break, his total comp was $250K, all cash (no RSU). I can still remember the gasps that followed.
I have read the book "No Rules Rules. Netflix and the Culture of Reinvention" [0]. It's fascinating the number of times Netflix pivoted and rewrote many rules. They discuss their philosophy on compensation in the book. They played important role in raising the salary bar.
First round, I had to do 2 coding questions in an hour, 30 mins for each question. I had to go to their campus. They would give me a laptop/environment of my choice and then time starts. Questions were very easy, so the expectation was reasonable.
Second round on On-site was two interviews: Director of engineering asked me why certain piece of C code was behaving in a certain way. I could not answer, but we compiled the code into Assembly and tried to understand the behavior. An hour later, the CTO of the company, Ken Duda, walked in and he asked me an Object Oriented question and some of my past projects. Really drilled me. He gave very simple design of same projects. Very educative and amazed to see a brilliant mind at work. The interview was in no way condescending.
They took a decision right there and it was a no hire. But I loved the experience. It was no BS interview.
I have an experience that I vividly remember. Early in my career, I was very poor at giving interviews and would freeze on trivial questions.
In Summer of 2011 I interviewed at a storage company. A good friend referred me. The nervousness was so immense, I caught diarrhea on morning of interview. I was asked to reverse a linked list. It's a standard question that I practised few times. I would program in C language. But on whiteboard, I could not produce the solution. I just froze. My mind took off in so many directions, going over the solution I did at home. It started finding bugs (real or imaginary) in that solution. The question is a warm up question, yet I could not answer. I practiced it so many times and yet ... After ~10 mins, I broke down, literally. There was only one other instance in my life I broke down in front of strangers. I tried not to show. Took restroom break. Composed myself and produced a solution. I'm not sure it was correct.
Interviewer was gracious. Obviously, I did not get an offer.
I've improved greatly since then, but that was rock bottom in my interviewing world.
How did you measure 4 to 6% packet loss? Do you have scripts to ping some server and you are collecting packet loss data? I would like to collect such data for my home network and am curious.
"People buy expensive things to feel valuable. Lead a life where ordinary things gain value when you use it." Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.
Recalling from memory. May have errors. He said giving examples of Rev. Martin Luther King, Mahatma Gandhi etc. We now have museums of them containing mundane things of their daily life.
Reminder, Stanford is taking down this course on March 26th, 2020. They let you download courses that are setup for download (this course is not, unfortunately).
> In an impressively candid moment of self-reflection, Torvalds said the impetus behind Git was to prove to himself that he wasn't just a "one-hit wonder." "We all have self-doubts," he suggested. "Linux was 'just' a re-implementation of Unix. Git proved I could be more than a one-hit wonder."
Wow! Even Linus has some form of 'impostor syndrome' and self-doubt after all the technical achievements.
Use ctrl+b once to send commands to local Tmux server, twice to send commands to Tmux running on remote machine you SSH'ed in to. I think this can go on, in theory, but I did not test.
Couple of others:
1) www.pramp.com
2) www.interviewbit.com
3) www.gainlo.co << this is paid service.
4) www.interviewkickstart.com << this is also paid
In 1 & 2, are free where you are paired with another candidate who's also preparing for interviews. But you are not sure if it's simulating "real" interviews.
3 is paid and quite close to real interview, but costs can add up.
4 I participated in this and highly recommend. But probably you are not looking for this as this is a full blown interview bootcamp.
