I get the hate for sprints, and the bastardisation of agile. I think however, the root cause of this is the way in which our society as a whole has been modelled, in a top down manner where control is wrested from the bottom, and perceived

I've found the Arch wiki to be a great documentation source when it comes to most Linux tooling. It's detailed, and formatted in a way that is easy to read. I typically recommend the wiki for people when they want more information

Yeah just saw that. Didn't realise how long Bitbucket had been down since.

Their status page is reporting BitBucket as being operational [1], classic. Wonder what the cause for this downtime will be. Last time it was a maintenance script [2] that ended up taking down most of their services for ~2 weeks. EDIT: The

History has shown time and time again that trickle down economics simply does not work for growing the economy. Austerity does nothing more than stagnate the economy by taking money out of it. I don't think it's an economic illite

You have more direct control over your product. Whereas with being VC backed there is that expectation to do what is considered "profitable" by their own metrics. Granted, bootstrapping is a long and arduous process, but I think t

Pinning it all on the people can be disengenious in my opinion. Remember, you are going to be one of those people for somebody else. We cannot forget either, that people are heavily influenced by their environments, even moreso in the works

Is this really a surprise though? If you want to make as much money as possible, one way is by cutting spending, wages, food, hardware, whatever you can. I don't agree with this, though it is hardly surprising when companies do this, e

Should probably clarify that this is in regards to the Thai monarchy. When I first looked at it I assumed it was the British monarchy. However, there have been multiple occurences in Britain of people being arrested for criticising the new

Have you considered spinning up a cheap Linux box from any VPS provider and deploying your own relational database of choice there? Sure, there will be more administrative overhead for you than there would be with managed solutions, but it

That sounds really interesting, any chance you could post the mkfile you use for that?

When it comes to VPN providers you're essentially moving your traffic from your ISP to the provider itself, so it's not entirely private. If you want to be absolutely sure that no logs are kept, then you're best off running y

They wrote another article about how they went about building a $1M ARR open-source SaaS [1]. This details some of their approach to building the product in public as a form of marketing. The building in public approach works, if you alread

It is rather disconcerting how a platform that is apparently rather integral to the discourse of today is in the hands of a single private company. It doesn't matter who owns it, if it's Musk or someone else, the fact that it&#x27

Makes me think of Dune (2021) that was written on MS-DOS [1], also of GRRM who still uses Wordstar for writing too [2]. One thing GRRM notes about wanting to use Wordstar is how modern word processors nowadays will auto-correct as you write

Really like the approach here. In the past, I've typically managed my SSH keys by naming them as id_<purpose> like so, then tinkering with the ssh_config to make use of them. Never thought of using the token approach, though, def

Middle-click paste functionality is something that is part of either Wayland or Xorg, so the solution will vary depending on which one you're using. From doing some preliminary search I came across this thread with a potential fix for

I'd argue simple web hosting still does exist. For my personal site I simply run a $5 Linux box on DigitalOcean, and SCP the files I want to host to it inside the /var/www directory. That's simplicity, no clunky CPanel i

You mention CI being done in a distributed fashion. Could you elaborate on what you mean by this? I'm asking as I'm someone who has developed a CI platform [1], and one of its features is the offline runner [2]. The offline runner
