Pat Gelsinger was a CEO of VMware prior to Intel, COO at EMC prior to that, and CTO at Intel before that. He was never a CFO.

I'm not really answering your question, but in the States, there is a lot more trust placed in Apple over Facebook. This isn't that surprising - Apple has a much stauncher stance on privacy than alternatives. I wish Signal would

LunarVim is entirely NeoVim with default plugins baked in and maintained. I would translate this back to just debating Helix vs NeoVim.

So - do we just report this as cap gains loss? How does this work in the States? As far as I can tell, my investment in this went to $0. Edit: Apparently in the US, any capital loss due to loss or theft is not considered taxable capital l

My one year old is relatively easy compared to other kids. She’s generally not fussy unless teething, very happy and playful, can play by herself well (if necessary), etc. My wife was out of town for a week and I had to single parent… even

I wouldn’t really say it’s a big implementation. I just use a piece of paper and denote a line to each 30 mins of the work day. So it might look like: 10: meeting 1030: bug fixing 11: bug fixing 1130: bug fixing 12: run 1230: run 1: lunch 1

Overall, I like it. I enjoyed WezTerm as well, but found that it suffered incredible lag in Neovim. Honestly, if not for that, I probably would use WezTerm full time. But kitty does have some significantly nice features, especially if you u

In general, I find myself to be someone who operates best within certain confines - for example, the time blocking from Cal Newport has been highly effective for myself. That said, I caution against too much routine. I used to get really in

Kitty also has this feature built in!

What exactly is a “proper code editor”, and why does Neovim not fit the bill there?

> why you chose it over VS Code VS Code has always felt clunky to me. It always felt like a halfway house between the speed and simplicity of Vim and the maximalism offered by JetBrains IDEs. I also just generally don’t love GUI apps for

I’m surprised this doesn’t yet exist, to be honest. I stopped pirating music/shows exclusively because Netflix and Spotify were more convenient. I now have mixed opinions on the ethics of piracy, but a convenient, inexpensive option fo

This is a frighteningly-cool insight. If I think about a single marathon, that's roughly 1 gallon of gas for my own car. I don't know how to translate that to human fuel, but it is crazy to me to think that that is not an insignif

For at least the last year I’ve ran my entire dev environment out of a Linux VM I ssh into (locally). The primary factors are: 1. I, overall, like macOS and the Apple ecosystem. I heavily use Notes, my calendar, several apps I like to sync

I delved deeply into this world and over time, have largely gone back to almost precisely what you do. I use Apple Notes/Reminders for most things. Calendar is critical. Lastly I do use Trello, similar to Cal Newports recommendations,

$40k is probably a more accurate median. Still, after taxes, that should leave ~$80k money to live on/save beyond rent concerns.

I think it's just an aspect of competition, and people's ego. In most competitive games, human psychology is just as important as any other aspect, and trash talk has been around since forever in order to tilt a player. I don&#x27

This seems crazy late. IIRC I had a 0-period class starting at 6:00am. Starting 2.5 hours later is surprising. If I were back in high school, all this would have told me is that I'm staying up until at least midnight, if not later. I w

Isn't this an incredibly dangerous game Amazon is playing with Alexa devices, then? IIRC everything gets recorded.

I guess the question becomes are Firefox and Safari (on iOS) the same browser, or different? I would still argue that Firefox is different (in the same way that Brave and Chrome are different), and that this title is misleading.

by ar_lan 4y ago
I'm really confused. I actively use Firefox as my default browser on my iPhone running iOS 15.5. I don't think Apple has banned other browsers at all.

Monolithic architectures default to this kind of methodology, though. You have to instrument tooling to identify what tests should be run when these files/services/etc get affected in order to optimize the developer flow in a mono

I don't know if "most shops are now using interpreted languages" is an accurate statement :) (I actually don't know). But I think that's definitely an interesting idea (likely with some small levels of extra caution
