I started setting up hledger this year and I’m with you for a small business it is absolutely great. Some notes: - The initial setup of the books is pretty time consuming especially if you have a lot of accounts. I recommend starting your m

You don't actually need most of that additional tech. Github Actions + Managed Kubernetes + Helm is solid. Everything else can be additive as needed. ArgoCD is largely useful for deploying to multi single tenant customer installations,

This is what we are doing with my company. We build out tooling that benefits everyone and open source most of it, but our bread and butter is consulting. Our consulting leads us to build more tooling to make our jobs easier, which leads to

I can confirm. A lot of Django apps out there. People don't make a big scene about it, and it quietly powers a lot of websites. I think one of the powers it has that no one talks about is that you can do microservices within a monolith

It is actually a problem everywhere except Sub-Saharan Africa. For example, Germany, Italy, South Korea, Taiwan, China are going through a massive demographic decline. India will likely be there in 15 years. The documentary Birthgap tries t

Ha. Yeah. Remember taking a whole day or more for a clean build of the 2.4 kernel on my childhood Pentium machine. Would go to school hoping I’d come back to a completed build but it would just keep going for another day. At this point I do

My direct experience is the more tenured teachers not showing up at all. Spent a significant amount of my high school roaming the halls because some of the teachers didn’t show up. This was opposed to the younger teachers who cared and put

The reason for me was Slackware back in the 90s had a run Linux on a DOS partition version. I believe this was Slackware 7.0. It was easier to install for a 12-year-old me than to figure out what fdisk outputs meant. Slackware made it super

I guess we aren't talking about the same humanities majors. Most of my friends from Berkeley who are history or humanities majors are lawyers, academics, or doctors (yes, many of the humanities became doctors). They don't really s

I don't think you have to worry here. The people who take the SAT are a minority. We need to stop thinking everyone takes the SAT. It is not valid. This policy benefits the people who take the SAT, which is likely a minority of student

I was on the UC Berkeley campus on Tuesday. So many more black and latino students than when I was on campus. It was nice. I had many black friends in high school and none when I went to Berkeley in 2005-2010. I can say the SAT, ACT, etc. a
