People are quick to point out that induced demand exists - especially people that aren't fond of change. Very broadly speaking, people mis-estimate effect sizes in economics by orders of magnitude. Induced demand is just their foothol

I use a PR notifier chrome extension, so I have a badge on the toolbar whenever a PR is waiting on me. I get to them in typically <2 minutes during work hours because I tab over to chrome whenever AI is thinking. Sometimes I even get t

I've had great experiences being managed twice by very humble engineers who've made the transition to EM. Both were sacked within the year by their boss because they didn't play the corporate politics game.

I can <C-z> while less is running to background that process using the shell, so the shell is clearly not completely gone. I might be misremembering, but I think I just had to rebind <C-x> in zsh to get less working.

If you're following a pipe (such as `kubectl logs | less +F`), <C-c> is sent to all processes in a pipeline, so it stops less from following and it stops the other process entirely. Then you can't start following again with

About once a week I see someone cut in even though the person is literally tailgating. The driver at the back has to brake+swerve to not cause a high speed collision. There's actually nothing you can do to prevent these people from g

I'm there right now at my current job. It's always the same engineer, and they always get a pass because (for some reason) they don't have to do design reviews for anything they do, but they go concern-troll everyone else&#x

Google's monorepo is in fact terabytes with no binaries. It does stretch the definition of source code though - a lot of that is configuration files (at worst, text protos) which are automatically generated.

Great advice! Personally, I got immense value from writing notes but never when I wrote them during the lecture. 30 minutes after the lecture has ended is a perfect time time to sit down in the library and write notes for what the lecture

The former. I clone from file:// URIs. I just have the file path to the inside of my LXC container. If you're using Docker you can just mount it. I only need the path twice (for clone, and for adding a git remote). After

Git worktrees are global mutable state; all containers on your laptop are contending on the same git database. This has a couple of rough edges, but you can work around it. I prefer instead to make shallow checkouts for my LXC containers,

I've had my car burgled twice for them to only steal a backpack with nothing in it. I'm pretty sure the assumption is that backpacks have laptops.

I live in the US. A family member close to me is unable to make appointments any closer than 6 months to receive lifesaving care. This is despite getting the most premium insurance they could find. They (easily) found someone who will see

I mentioned two things that were broken: 1. Doesn't work with ExternalSecretsOperator and ArgoCD, which I happen to use. This is because the author of the Harbor chart decided not to use k8s concepts like secretRef in a podTemplate.

I also run Harbor. I use the official Helm chart; it's a little jank, doesn't support a couple of things we want. It only works with one of ArgoCD/ExternalSecretsOperator, and it doesn't support Redis TLS. Contrary to
