Not github but gitlab EE - we used that at my old job for pretty much everything(and because none of the people on my team could stand the jira-confluence duo).

Easier said than done it seems. I reckon I've abandoned at least 7-8 projects I took pretty far in the last decade, everything ended the same way-collecting dust in a repo or on an old drive. At this point even if something interesting

From a personal point of view, I completely disagree here. The one-person thing is just not doable, no matter how hard you believe/try. I've attempted this countless times and my motivation and dedication never cut it, no matter h

No, nothing else as far as tts is concerned. It is my workstation however so it's doing a million other things simultaneously. Full disclosure, I have no idea how far the tts can be pushed on it but it is single threaded so there is ro

I have something pretty similar that I built some time ago for personal use: listen to articles while I am working on things and can't dedicate my attention to anything else. I've been wondering if I should open source it(shove it

Great! Over the past 6 months or so I've noticed a trend which I like: people are less obsessed with all the modern react-angular-vue-js-everything-html-css-bad notion and a lot of people are starting to admit that this whole sack of g

Pfff that was in 2014, hell if I remember. All I can remember is that it was 15-20 minutes walking from the Estrel hotel but that's as much as I can narrow it down.

I never really understood the hype around (f)ragile (as one famous google engineer called it in a small closed circle a few years ago). I think the main problem is that in the past 7-8 years it has become more of an evangelism effort rather
