   Those are usually for the baseline models. But, other than meager storage, I think it's still a great deal.

   Oh, yeah I guess I've been using "whiteboarding" to mean "live code test"--which these days are done on like CodeSignal or whatever. I guess for teams that do architecture stuff w/ an actual whiteboard then lik

   I think you can do this stuff in a respectful way. I've been in and around a lot of hiring situations where no one knew what they were doing, and were also aware they didn't know what they were doing. If your candidates start show

   You're missing the point. Anything wanting data integrity will now have to use F_FULLFSYNC, which is slow on this firmware. You might say "you shouldn't care about data integrity to this degree", but databases do, and lo

    I think you're broadly right; I would agree the article comes for DigiCert when it should come for browsers, and this pretty embarrassing for the web. And I think you're right about EV? Ignoring gross CAs trying to juice the web,

    I've done 2 monitors and 1 monitor + laptop screen, and a single monitor, and I mostly prefer single monitor. Sometimes 1 monitor + laptop is useful for webdev--or if I'm in a particularly chatty Slack (or whatever), but I've

    Let me chime in and recommend the Lenovo ThinkVision P32U-10 [0]. Color repro is amazing, brightness is bonkers, it's matte. The only dealbreaker for some is it's 60Hz only. The reviews are pretty good and give a good idea of how

    Oh no, the nice thing about it is you can basically configure it to do whatever you want. You can choose linters or fixers, lint/fix on save or on a configured "I've left insert mode" lag, etc. etc. It's actually re

    Yeah I think maybe I'll just come around to rust-analyzer? My experiences with language servers has been really spotty: they lose the state, eat CPU, want to autocomplete everything, etc. But idk, if it's a "this is the way&q

    Yeah no you're definitely right, I'm definitely not in the golden path for Rust dev. I guess my quibbles (which I would cop to being quibbles... I think anyway) are: - I'm already using 'cargo check' as my linter (r

    rust-analyzer is a language server, which (along with autocomplete and maybe infuriatingly) I'm not into. I think this mostly reinforces Eli's point, which is broadly that you need a lot of editor support to use Rust reasonably er

    A less condescending way to say what you said is, "oh they're pretty clear in the compiler output, are they buried or something?" And then I would say that in the linter in Vim, you only get the "method not found in Bar&

    I used an X60 for years and loved it. I've since tried to use it again and I've evidently been spoiled by other machines: - it--and its slight upgrade the X61--run hot, and nothing you do (shielding, thermal paste) really helps en
