I could see this being useful when you coded a utility, which runs off a huge existing JSON as its configuration. You want to go straight for one or two values, not this huge data structure.

Same goes for DuckDuckGo though. I'm not disagreeing with you. Just noting that for this result, Google isn't delivering anything special.

I live in Europe as a subcontractor and I work 32 hours per week. That's billable hours, which excludes travel/commute, bookkeeping, trainings, and searching for new projects. It works fine with family. I do my own bookkeeping and

But what if you prefer that steady income? It’s a honest question.

Is SimpleNote something for you? It only supports plain text notes (with Markdown rendering), but I've got years of notes in there, and it works on every platform. It's also owned and supported by Wordpress.

I have a 32" monitor with 4k resolution. With macOS, it's unusable at 100% scaling. It's far too dense. Sure, you can change fonts in many applications, but not all.

Seconding Arq. It's incredibly freeing to be able to dump your remote backups wherever you have space. Right now, the best for me is to send them to a virtual Linux box where I have enough space left. It supports Amazon Drive, AWS, Bac

> Also, we don't add dependencies unless we really need to I think this is the trick. I've worked for a client whose coding standards basically forbade 3rd party clients. Turns out, it often is not needed at all. Do you need to

What I found out, is that it takes a painter team two days, and it takes an untrained single person two weeks. I once wasted my whole holiday on painting the house. And it wasn't well done, because it was my first time. I'll proba

There are a number of such generators, but this one has good defaults (with the number at the end). IMHO, it would be better if it would generate a list of passwords, so if the site is malicious, it wouldn't know which one you picked.

You personalize your shell, don’t you? At least I do. My dot files such as .zshrc are in a fit repo, which I check out on a new machine.

I get that this is a bug in Windows Explorer, I really do. But the discussion is now focusing on all sorts of workarounds like undeleting files, looking up scratch/swap files, etc. When in my opinion, the correct solution is hourly bac

To be honest I always wrote off Yabai until someone here commented that it works fine without disabling SIP. Only a small subset of features need that.
