I'm honestly torn. I was a big Linux proponent for a while, then Apple won me over with Macs for a time. They did "just work" for my day-to-day(DevOps). However, last spring, I bought a new personal system for freelance work&

Sites hosted on Netlify literally just depend on a github repo with a TOML configuration file at the root. For basic static sites, which I imagine fit the needs of the majority of personal hosting, it's incredibly trivial to point the

Thank you, that is a meaningful distinction I should've paid more attention to. This reddit thread sums up my issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/comments/o27q4z/gnome_3_vs_gn... Forcing horizonta

I tried it in a VM before, definitely enjoyed it. I always worry about bundled distributions like this. You're subject to the whims of the maintainer in terms of implementation choices, packaging, and whether or not long term support e

After upgrading Ubuntu from 21.04 to 21.10, the shipped Gnome3 version apparently included a bunch of new shortcuts and a change in workspace management functionality such that the Pop OS shell management worked significantly worse. I gave

We’ve got data in S3 buckets not nearly at that scale and managing them, god forbid trying a mass delete, is absolute tedium.

But how are they able to get anything done when they're spending all their time telling everyone how smart they are? ;-)

Definitely leans more towards whole food meals. Very little processed/pre-made ingredients, and even with those it provides recipes to make your own subs i.e. mayo and stock.

We own several vegan cookbooks as well, and have been leaning on this one pretty heavily since we got it. Everything has been quite tasty, albeit slightly labor intensive. Since it's produced by America's Test Kitchen, I'm mo

My wife and I are both vegan. We got this book as a Christmas gift: https://www.amazon.com/Vegan-Everybody-Foolproof-Plant-Based... It does a great job at the beginning of the book addressing various substitutes for things

"Truth" and "rings true in your experience" aren't necessarily overlapping values. Sure, it's a confrontational response, because I've seen too many solid, empathetic, capable individuals run out of tech b

Do you have hard data to back that up or is it just anecdotal personal bristling whenever someone says "privilege"?

Whether or not you classify it as “easy” isn’t relevant. You hit the nail on the head in the prior sentence: “time” is the issue, and you’re asking someone to trade their time for a pittance. FWIW I’d charge way more than $100/hr for t

For me Doom Emacs was much faster and just seemed to have saner default configurations. The developer is also incredibly responsive and helpful. I'm coming from Vim, so having evil-mode as a first-class integration is nice too.
