Anyone wondering how "easy" it is to obtain a token may be interested in the setup instructions for slack-term[0]. As for token expiration.. I've been logged into slack-term using the same token for weeks if not months, witho

You've just inadvertently reminded me of that and now I'm probably going to be grumpy for the rest of my day.

Crappy management begets crappy managers. Agreed. I have a counter/supplementary theory that it is just as disruptive to assume a good developer will be a good leader or manager, too. Rant time (aimed at no one in particular, especiall

Yes, because it is explaining that it was a valid *customer* configuration, which is a separate set of concerns from, say, infrastructure config. The important adjective "valid" means it was completely normal/expected input a

How on earth do you figure that is anyone's fault but the BBC? Read Fastly's statement. There is nothing about it blaming the customer(s) at all. There is nothing trying to save face. What is your point here?

For general typing - I dedicate ~15 minutes a day on sites like monkeytype.com. I also completed the courses on typing.com when I first received my moonlander. Monkeytype also has settings to emulate a lot of the popular alternative layouts

Alternatively, you map the most common shortcuts you use to single keys on a new layer. But whatever, you do you :)

The entire purpose of these layouts is to reduce movement to keys you most use. If you really are using the F-keys hundreds of times a day then it very much is in your ergonomic interest to bring those keys closer to the home row to make ac

Do you have any examples of what is superior in O365? As my other reply states I've found it to be the opposite - GSuite supports _more_ than MS does online.

Anecdotal and a complete digression from your point - I consider myself a poweruser of excel/word/etc and I loathe the online variants in O365. There's quite a few features missing in both that require me to use the offline v

Jenkins (when it was still just Hudson) was the forerunner for CI. It made a lot of mistakes but only because nothing else was there at the time to learn from, in my humble opinion. The only alternative in the early days was CruiseControl
