Oh nice, a Milwaukee guy! Cool newsletter, for one reason or another I have always been interested in desk setups.

Yep, one of the most frustrating experiences. What makes it worse is how hard it can be to navigate back to what I was listening to when the music stopped.

Reddit is nearly unusable out of box. Use it for smaller specialized interests and it can be very valuable. I use it for the baseball and hiking communities and I have a radically different experience than I otherwise would going thru &#x2F

VMware purchased Airwatch, perhaps the premiere mobile device management suite.

OKD is slightly different than the OpenShift (OCP) provided on IBM Cloud. OpenShift is on all clouds but IIRC OpenShift on IBM Cloud receives OCP updates first.

For what it's worth, there are quite a few tools that can help make macos a usable experience. Magnet helps a ton for window management, for example. But stock macos is pretty booty.

For what it's worth, Apple always has people on hand monitoring innovations in technology and testing their stack on new hardware, most of which never sees the light of day.

Agreed. I started backpacking with my brother a few years ago and it was miserable the first few times because there were so many things that we were anxious about, we bad with, or just didn't know to do. For example, we bought heavy w

Yep, our local Honda lot has functionally been sold out for 2 years. I've resigned myself to driving my current vehicles into dust.

My student debt is getting a little cheaper! Unfortunately, the next time I need to buy a vehicle those gains will be wiped out.

I do have the cellular version and I definitely don't manage notifications, and my watch face is always on. So, I certainly could take steps to squeeze enough life to make it last from 6am-10pm, but I just don't really want to.

by jhickok 5y ago
I essentially use it for health-things. I listen to podcasts/music off of it when I run or row so I don't have to carry a phone around. Today, for example, I was at 40%-ish at around noon after putting in on around 6am and exercis

Agreed, and given that I would be fine paying a few books for a watch face that seems like easy money Apple.

I have not had that experience with the Series 7, but my S6 would not make it thru a full day ever if I used it for less than an hour of Apple Fitness (paired with an iPad or standalone on a run).

I actually just found out that you could force a resync on the podcasts app on macos by hitting CMD + R and that has solved some of the issues I have where I just wait around for new episodes to sync (pull down for refresh is a nightmare wi

Really? I may make it thru one day if I am using it moderately (mostly apple fitness).

I just want their native apps to work, and a lot of times I find they are busted. No excuse for that.

I love the new Apple Silicon Macs, and the transition for me has been pretty easy. I can't imagine anything interesting happening to the watch that doesn't include a big increase to battery life. I don't want any other featur

It's a good question. For one, ALL communication is done via Facebook, and this includes changes. For example, just today our indoor soccer league had a covid-related cancellation of our games today and tomorrow. If not thru Facebook i

I have not. There's really no sense in which Facebook isnt possible for me. I could say that I have privacy concerns but I'm genuinely not interested in being a weirdo parent that puts pressure on my kids. Most of the organizers a

by jhickok 5y ago
Same. My kids are in sports and Facebook is how they communicate with us, including changes to schedules, "snack duty", pictures and videos from games, etc. It's basically impossible to be a judicious parent and not be on Fac

Yes and no-- some teams migrated off to either Docker CLI or Podman, and other teams ponied up the cash.

Couldn't agree more. If regulators ever attack the Amazon stack and split up the company, AWS could become one of the most valuable companies in the world.

Out of curiosity, have you tried tools like Pulumi? I've never used it but as a longtime Ansible user it's something that has my interest.

Can be. Paying for SaaS offerings like the gsuite or o365 is a great deal for say, 100 seats, instead of paying someone to administer on prem email. "Cloud administration" can be more work, less work, or about the same work as cla

I haven't had issues with hardware other than the butterfly keyboard, but I have been astounded at issues with first-party software. For the last 48 hours podcasts have just not worked on my iPhone 13 Pro Max, for instance. Apple Music

Podman is probably your best bet, but it's not necessarily a drop-in replacement the way I think of "drop-in", at least. But you aren't necessarily getting a desktop app with Podman, so you may want to just try Docker cm

Not defending direct democracy, but it's not clear that if 60% of eligible voters participate it entails A) the people endorse the voting system B) it expresses their will. You can waffle a little and say that if people hold their nose
