Second that. I was tepid on WSL on initial release, but recently decided to try a full switch after hearing good things and I'm glad I did. You're literally using a full Linux distro, it's really fast, and it even has neat in

I feel like super easy to host needs to be re-emphasized. We're talking about dropping a single binary into your server and you're off to the races. If only more things were so simple.

Nice, I've actually tried a trackball myself, but with the way I use my desk (sit/stand) it caused more problems than it solved (shoulder issues). Ergonomics is an art I suppose.

I love this new wave of tools coming out for mouseless computer use. Chronic mouse use has destroyed my wrist so I have to avoid using it as much as possible. I love Shortcat's approach in general, indexing the UI. However, the relianc

I haven't touched Python in years, and just recently came back to it. I was very pleasantly surprised to see just how much Microsoft has improved the tooling in VSCode with the recent update ( https://visualstudiomagazine.com

I often read things that say that if you just write the query properly, you can trust the query optimizer to select the right plan. Just trust the optimizer! Unfortunately, in my experience, the more complex your query gets, the more opport

Memory is fundamentally limited anyway. Unless you're going to set up an Anki deck for your Zoom meeting notes, it's unrealistic to try to remember action points from every Zoom call we're on. The brain is an efficient machin

Keto is absolutely the missing ingredient in most dieters' arsenal. I'm sure most IF'ers end up keto intermittently anyway, but you'd be more efficient at it if you develop the full metabolic machinery for it by specific

There is an incredible amount of confusion surrounding cholesterol, mostly because of the incredible amount of bad/old/incomplete science around which many major medical associations base their recommendations. To put it simply, u

I don't understand how so many people can anchor their lives to work. If you do that, when you retire, you've lost your meaning of life. I have a list of things a mile long that I just can't get to because 40 hours a week is

It's important to understand the root of the arguments for and against both "not invented here" and "invented here". Both can be considered a poor mindset because it's thinking in absolutes. Certainly, everyone
