Do you genuinely consider Democrats (and a social democrat at that) to be alt-right? Yes, I read the article. It’s quite short, and includes no such disclaimers like the “OK” page makes (I’d argue poorly, but it still does).

I’m matching your energy. Your original comment came in just to say “you’re wrong” as a weird, nitpicky contrarian - so I’m going to fight you on that. You’re trying to make the distinction KVM is separate - I’m saying KVM is a part of Prox

You're just debating semantics, debatably incorreectly, and for no reason. KVM is not a type-2 hypervisor in this case - Proxmox can be hosted on bare metal and use KVM natively. > Saying proxmox is a hypervisor is like saying virt-

They are similar, but Qubes is more targetted at the end user - proxmox is more traditionally used as the hypervisor for distributed applications. You can probably achieve the same goals with either though (barring differences in Xen and KV

I agree with this, but I think the impressive part about Lichess is that it's actually full of competitive users. Chess.com is, by all measures, the "default" chess application. But you still see active GMs and a huge playerb

Musk is definitely unhinged on his ADL attacks, but the ADL has some... strange takes. They have whole articles on how the Bowl Cut and the OK symbol are hate symbols. For the OK symbol they have nested "disclaimers" (why these ar

My wife and I are Christian and do honor the Sabbath. In practice, one of the things we do for this is to deload from our Smartphones (and really, all screens) every Sunday. I notice when I have my phone available, I have a strong inability

I'm so happy this is a stdlib feature. This is good enough for me to not need to bring in external loggers (e.g. zerolog) which is nice, and I strongly think that structured logging should be the default logging format. Logs are data.

These are not table stakes features for usability, especially the last one. I use Arc Browser and while I think vertical tabs is nice , this is not a MVP feature. Additionally, I'd argue Multi Account Containers + Total Suspender are

I agree the onus is to establish a clear culture, guidelines, and mentorship to newbies and junior developers in this regard. Almost everybody who started their career probably had their first code review torn to shreds. I'm not saying

Everything you listed are exactly what the "know-it-all" senior developer is expecting already, though. If you're doing these things before you submit your review for eyes to look at, you'll come to a point where your re

Are you ever concerned you might be an easy person to chop for layoffs? My employer is moving to full-time RTO and the rumor mill is that most people outside of that (similar, 25 mile) boundary will largely be in the first round of layoffs.

My mind shifted this way for sure. Another 2-3 hours of my day is lost when I commute once weekly. Of those, I fully work because I start at 8am promptly and take short lunches. Days I go in often feel more like socializing for the sake of

If Zoom, basically the “golden” remote work company, can’t hack it, then I fear remote work really might just not work at scale.

I prefer it, but I also prefer to stick to the terminal as much as possible. If I were a VSCode user, I might disagree. My main factor is I don't want to have to context switch across applications. I don't feel like I'm doing

In general, I agree. VS Code has always come across as an unhappy middle ground in my personal opinion. I usually just think: go full power user (Vim/Neovim/Emacs) or completely ready-to-go (Jetbrains). But I just have never felt

I think sharing a Washington Post article about Amazon is... probably not a good thing to do at all. This article probably isn't worth reading, to be honest, the bias is too high.

GitHub is not the best metric, though. 1. Many (most) engineers are not in positions to be able to meaningfully contribute to OSS (e.g. all the code I write for work is proprietary). 2. It can easily be faked. 3. Personal projects can somet
