Thanks for the suggestion but that's just for Chrome/Chromium isn't it? It's a nice start but really I'm looking for something that works for the entire screen desktop. I did have a plugin for Gnome that sort of wo

Yep I feel the same. To know if you're the target user or not I guess you go to Apple's marketing material. Do you see anyone that looks like you, doing anything that looks like what you do? I don't and I can't remembe

Is there an equivalent to macOS' Ctrl-scroll to zoom the screen yet? It's little accessibility features like that keep me coming back to macOS everytime I switch to Linux.

I'm glad they mention diet. I would imagine the 5 year difference could be explained simply by not smoking and not eating so much processed food.

Go for it. There's some great ideas there. I often wondered about making it easier to organise large coffee stops like where a whole bike club arrive a cafe at the same time. Generally you want slightly different routes for your blue,

I love the idea. Garmin and Strava are the obvious integrations for me. Really though I think you’ve covered most of the features I’d look for. I think the really question is why one might use this over, say, ridewithgps or other competitor

If Samsung had a better reputation for privacy they’re the brand I’d switch to for one of their folders. I’m put off by how Samsung monetise every data source they’re trusted with though. E.g. TV viewing, phone data, Samsung Pay, forced ana

Those not indicating are bad drivers. However, I'm not sure if this is what you mean but when changing lanes on a British Motorway you only need to indicate when pulling out not when pulling in. Sometimes it can be helpful to do so wh

I'm not going to post a link for you but you can go to Bluesky and search for Rob Pike. The thread is a recent one.

I saw Rob Pike online asking about what to tell people that don’t understand why anyone would boycott Meta services. For me it’s stuff like this.

The oldest still supported Garmin inReach device is the original DeLorme inReach from 2011 (Garmin bought DeLorme). That at least bodes well for long term support. I suspect that subscription supported devices will actually get better suppo

I'm not sold on the prices involved but I could really do with satellite emergency calling for MTB rides where there's no phone signal. That's far more common than you might think even in areas that should, on paper, have cov

Yeah you probably don't need it in slow moving urban traffic but I saw a video with some bike packers in Australia who used Varia. They were on rural roads shared with road trains. Road trains a very big, move very fast and they don&#

Every plugin manager I've used since Pathogen has seemed "triumphant" at the time. I think they've all been reliable enough and everytime I think well this will be the last time I change that. I currently have a Packer

Sorry, maybe "market rate" would be better phrasing on my part. I assume there's a mark up in there even if I didn't say it. My point is that base cost of gas is so much higher than renewable energy that we are crippling

Gradual typing would be introducing static typing into an existing codebase. Ideally you would want your entire code base statically typed but if it's a large legacy project realistically you might not be able to stop all development w

We do and I share your concerns. As far as I can see pricing electricity on the marginal costs of gas has not been a good strategy. I think we should be charged the true cost of generation which is something like 8 times lower for renewabl

I'm definitely in favour of gradual typing but runtime checking is already really easy to do if that's what you want. Just add a rightward assignment patten match to your method. e.g. def somemethod(foo, bar) foo => I

That's just documentation tool but the method is actually already statically typed by ruby. I'm not sure why they don't link that in the documenation but I beleive it is something the RDoc mainer wants to do. def lines: (

I'll leave aside the unnecessary test for parity as contrived for the example. This is a question of style; it's possible to write ruby the way you have but with experience you definitely wouldn't. e.g. Why wrap the iterator

No worries. I think it's what I'd call a "happy accident", I think it will work well. It actually makes searching online for it easier.

Thanks for this Jose, it looks great. I only have one question and it's not a very important one; the name. Why is it "tidewave" and not "tidalwave"? That just sounds wrong. (Told you it wasn't important :D ) E

Totally agree with this. eBikes are already too heavy for my tastes. Having the motor means people don't care about things like slow rolling tyres, heavy finishing kit or the weight of the transmission to handle the extra torque. That
