The thing that got me was always referring to Scaleway in the third person. e.g. this read like the response I get when I ask AI to review code: > Scaleway’s solution to that problem was ingenious: embedding a Raspberry Pi module with ea

The C in CDE is “common” because it was a collaboration between the major Unix vendors on a standard for how Unix desktops worked.

I've found that IntelliJ's refactorings don't work as well for Kotlin as Java but, also, I've avoided Kotlin because I don't like it very much.

On the other hand, Java's tooling for correctly refactoring at scale is pretty impressive: using IntelliJ, it's pretty tractable to unwind quite a few messes using automatic tools in a way that's hard to match in many languag

This shouldn’t be hard to deal with if the timestamp is always serialized with the offset: I’m much more picky about always persisting the offset than about always persisting UTC

That looks about the right size, I think: my goal was to put it on top of my ubiquiti dream machine and directly wire it, but I’m limited in terms of power supply because of the number of outlets in the area.

I just use the autocd zsh shell option for this. And I also use `hash -d` to define shortcuts for common directories. Then just “executing” something like `~gh/apache/kafka` will cd to the right place.

Yeah, this is sort of annoying, but I’ve switched to using “hyper” (caps lock mapped with karabiner to command-option-control) plus a homerow key to activate the frontmost window of key apps. So, Hyper-L activates the most recent terminal,

As far as I know, most data protection laws accept cryptoshredding as long as the party with a deletion requirement actually destroys the key. For one thing, it’s hard to reconcile deletion requirements with immutable architectures and back

I used to be a big user of tiling window managers but, more recently, I’ve discovered that the workflow of something like Moom is nicer in more situations.

In theory, you could store a private key on the device and cryptoshred the data on Microsoft’s servers when the setting is disabled (Microsoft deletes their copy of the key). Then, when the feature is re-enabled, upload the private key to M

One thing I’ve noticed is that search fields are now generally at the bottom of the screen which makes them a lot easier to activate. (No more flicking the screen down to search). I disliked the update for a week or so at first, but I have

I wonder about the importance of minimality: it itself seems like a heuristic for “interest” or some other thing that users of diffs actually care about. For example, a diff like: + x += 1 - x -= 1 Seems almost useless: it does

I think the concept of a “speed limit” is part of the problem. On controlled-access roads, I think it would be better for the posted speed to be advisory and, instead, train drivers to think of driving too slow for your lane as being just a

I gave up on openwrt when I realized that a lot of the recent WiFi standards seem to be badly supported. I think 802.11ac was significantly faster with vendor firmware than openwrt, for example.

I like Pete Seeger’s paraphrase of his father: “Plagiarism is basic to all culture”. I think we underestimate the damage to society at large when “remixing” the work of others is legally fraught. The mere reproduction of a previous performa

pijul uses a completely different model of version control than git (stores diffs rather than snapshots). And so the cost of switching and interoperation is a bit higher than jj which basically acts like a nice UI over git.
