  Holmes has partnered and subsequently reproduced with Billy Evans
What an odd way of saying that she had children with someone: "reproduced with". Makes it sounds a robot replicating itself.

  NSA's mission, as outlined in Executive Order 12333 in 1981, is to collect information that constitutes "foreign intelligence or counterintelligence" while not "acquiring information concerning the domestic activities of United States persons".
– Wikipedia

Whether they abide by that is another matter.

Your experience writing memory allocators is irrelevant. The point is that jemalloc is widely used and that’s why it makes sense to be aware of it.

As a non-native English speaker, I find "zee" confusing. It's difficult to distinguish from the word for c (see).

I set up SPF, DKIM, DMARC, not on any public blacklists (confirmed through https://multirbl.valli.org/), whitelisted by DNSWL.org at medium trust level, never sent any bulk email, and I had constant deliverability issues with Outlook and Gmail. Both of our experiences might be true, but yours does not invalidate mine. Simply setting up SPF and DKIM is not sufficient to ensure deliverability.

Whenever HN discusses self-hosting email, half the people with self-hosting experience say they never had any issues and the other half says they had so many issues they had to give it up.

I self-hosted for years and I did all the standard things you're supposed to do, but I had tremendous problems with Gmail and Outlook. Other providers usually went through without issue.

I ended up switching to Fastmail a few years ago, but before that I was relaying outgoing email through Amazon SES. It fixed all my deliverability problems. Before that, when sending from my own server, emails might just not show up. Not in recipient's spam folder, not rejected by their server. Accepted and then dropped mysteriously.

If I ever go back to self-hosting email, I would do the same except I would maintain a whitelist of friendly mail servers to which I would send directly. Or maybe just relay emails to Google/Microsoft via SES and send the rest directly.
