I keep a running list in my dotfiles repo[1] of the Unix replacements that I use. One downside is that I don't know the standard tools as well as I would like because I almost never use them. [1]: https://github.com/dgu

Thank you very much for mentioning and linking to the Shirky Principle. I've been thinking about the idea for a while but didn't know that it has a succinct name.

I don't know how common this is, but some libraries[1] allow people to check out ebooks (including Kindle ones). I do most of my reading on my Kindle, and it has almost all been free because of it. [1]: https://nypl.overdriv

It looks like the author used Medium's import tool[1] but didn't change the gist links to embeds. The source for the import is a gist itself[2], which just has the raw links. [1]: https://help.medium.com/hc/en

You can set it up so that tapping caps lock is interpreted as escape, while holding it is interpreted as control. It's one of the first things I do whenever I get a new machine.

You are certainly entitled to your interpretation, but I don't think the writer put in "usually" just to head off anecdotal counterexamples. The principle of charity leads me to assume the writer genuinely believes that simpl

I don't think he/she did. "I would disagree with" and "I feel" make it clear this is a personal opinion. Also note the presence of "usually" in "simple bold assertions usually don't hold wat

Author here. Using the Google ecosystem on a MacBook is fine for me since all Google software has web versions. I regularly use both macOS and Linux. I also have an Android phone and an iPad. So cross-platform compatibility is particularly

Author here. In retrospect, using the word "bloatware" was unnecessary, given the connotations of the word. I totally get that it's a very personal situation and that most Mac owners probably use a fair amount of Mac software

I should have elaborated on that section. The fact that I use almost none of the native software is a negative for me personally because the native software used to be a reason for me to pay the premium price for an Apple laptop. I used to

I'm happy to see the 200 GB plan. I use Google Drive instead of Dropbox because I only have ~70 GB of data. Now if I hit the 100 GB limit, I can just pay for an extra 100 GB instead of having to go all the way up to 1 TB. I don't

One of the reasons I try to use Docker for everything is because it's a cross-language solution. It does add some complexity and has its drawbacks, but for me, it's worth it. I'd rather have one global dependency (Docker) tha
