Yes, exactly. BTW, I never said I was sharing files :) just that I replaced the corresponding apps. Lately I was using Feem, but grew tired of it because it won't allow you to choose the folder when transferring using the free app.

I found Termux a while ago, and thought it was interesting. then I found you can run python, ffmpeg and youtube-dl on it, and now I think it's the best thing since sliced bread. I'm still to try to run Jupyter on it, but I think i

I think taxes are utterly broken in this country. For starters this one "supposedly" is a tax for a special group of people (That is, those that for whatever reason spend money in foreign countries) but the reality is that a large

Dude. Hold my beer. In Argentina, pre pandemic there were people that actually went shopping to Miami, because getting anything Apple - be it an iPhone or a laptop - was cheaper that way. The iPhone 12 is not for sale here, but let's u

Sorry couldn't help myself. It was totally benign, thought. May be I should had used the boris instead as an example.

Yes, I know that. And I take it a large percentage of the people that uses HN does that. But the question is, does the people that actually uses the files, knows that? The example I'm giving, is of people using PDFs with a certain form

Hi, nop, the reasoning behind having a base set of packages installed is that I more often than not use those. But as I start docker off a particular folder, I could decide not to use that base folder, and then having no package pre install

> We want independent envs for independent codebases OK. I understand where are you coming from, and I feel your pain, being a developer myself and have been way too many times that I want to admit on the "But, why?!" position.

I actually currently use python inside docker (I put that in another comment in this thread). Much cleaner, and was fun to get python / do what I wanted (Where I wanted) inside the container.

One solution is to use Ana / Miniconda. If you are not that tech savvy, if you don't mind downloading several hundred megabytes you can get away with this easily. In my case, and contrary to what one of the other commentators said

Both Reddit & Quora has this sort of "annoying" pattern (In Quora it turns into a dark one as you're not allowed to scroll down on a page after a certain point). On Reddit, on my opinion it seems how bad the page looks on

I'm also "oldchool" in a similar vein. But. Docker, dude. Docker. For instance, yesterday a PHP tool made the HN frontpage [1] that seemed rather interesting. Problem is, it needs PHP 7.2+ and my app runs on 5.6.* What to do?
