   I've worked in: small offices of ~6, medium offices of ~15, open spaces of ~30 and one open space of ~400. Small office of ~6 is my favourite by far. I really didn't enjoy the 400 person office floor. But, there were some minor po

   I've been working for 8 years since I finished my Master's. I've had a successful and generally happy career by my own standards, but I do feel that I could have done better. I think others will focus more on technical skills

    I've been considering graphene. I'd love to hear more about any other usability issue or problem you've experienced no matter how small, if you have the time. it's surprisingly difficult to find detailed accounts of this

    Agreed. I was delighted that my passport renewal process from first applying all the way to getting my new valid passport was about 12 days. The UK government's digital services is honestly a big factor in keeping me a UK resident

    The author's use for this is to circumvent geographical jurisdictional restrictions. If that is the aim (rather than privacy), then I don't understand how a $5 (per month) VPS along with all of the config and steps required (read:

    I'm not very opinionated on Rust's comparison to other languages, but to me it does seem like rewriting things in rust (which now even has its own acronym RIIR) has become trendy. Trendy enough that the very fact that rust tools h

    I have an X1 Carbon (6th or 7th gen, I forget) and I love it. I've handled dozens of other laptops and tried out loads at shops and nothing else feels as good to me. It ticks so many boxes for me: - Dual boots Arch and Windows perfectl
