With popOS maybe, but I would never hand Ubuntu Desktop to a non-dev. I can't remember the last time where it properly installed (including getting NVIDIA drivers working) without using the terminal.

Very much depends on the employer still (and there are quite a few political debates ongoing on whether 4 day work weeks should be incentivized, or whether they are the worst thing ever). Anecdotally, for experienced devs, it is something t

Depends on what you mean by that :D As one can see the last commits are a few years old, and in the issues there are a few robot arms that I haven't worked in yet, which I want to do soon. However, I'd largely attribute the lack o

I tried to collect a rough overview of available robot arms a few years ago (with focus on low-cost/open-source ones).[0] If anyone has some pointers on other recent projects in the space, I'd love to hear about them! [0]: https:

I don't think that there is any correlation between time spent "thinking about the system" and likelihood that it needs "unfucking". If there is any at all, it's probably the inverse. When I think back on all t

It's okay to have some of those traits, but I've also experienced colleagues which were basically comic book versions of some those types to the point that they ended up being impossible to work with. While I think that the author

They never claimed that hosting costs would be 100x cheaper, and given what they show with amount of machines in the scaling chart, I doubt it is. It's a JVM application with all state duplicated N times, so at least on the memory side

Until very recently single-language frontend + backend stacks were not the norm. As tRPC is in competition with solutions like GraphQL or REST APIs where the backend can be implemented in a big number of languages, I thought that limitation

I really like Pijul and its underlying libraries, both from a conceptual and implementation perspective. However over the 6 years of its existence I've lost hope of it ever becoming something that I'll use in my day-to-day, the sa

Of course you can compare apples to oranges, but if you know that a huge amount of the population is allergic to citrus fruit, it's just a waste of time to compare their dimensions or prices. It's not arbitrarily chosen, and I wou

w3schools garnered a reputation for stating outright wrong facts. I think they rectified that part, but I think the way they break down information is still far inferior to MDN on basically every topic.

Or you could just use Tailscale with their Tunnel feature, and you get most of those things with their free tier (up to 3 users with up to 100 devices) and at a cheaper per-user pricing after that. And it also works cross-platform.

That's not so much a comparison, as it is a collection of bland facts about each solution. Those facts may not even be a good basis for making a choice and it doesn't give any guidance on why each of them may be important. It also
