I left Texas several years ago, and I don't plan on returning. I didn't realize just how much the weather there was reducing my quality of life until I moved. Almost overnight, I dropped 50 lbs and started spending a lot of time o

I used an off-brand USB cable for my Garmin watch once, and it wouldn't power on for a week afterwords. I have no idea what strange software/hardware fault could explain that, but it spontaneously recovered after a week of being d

LineageOS allows users to stay on a reasonably secure up-to-date android version. Unfortunately, the initial install process is not user friendly enough for the average person who owns one of these devices. That's the barrier to entry.

At the professional level, there is literally only one brand which can be used to certify world records[0]. Garmin's track mode will eventually be competitive. But more competition would be a good thing. [0] https://the5krun

It's hard to replace all the people who were paid to maintain CentOS without another corporation stepping in. Large software projects like this unfortunately don't happen in a vacuum.

That's a good point, there is a vacuum for a good general purpose task automation tool that Jenkins has historically filled. The problem is that each of the magic functions you listed above are separate plugins. They're not part o

1-2 hours of training per day is incredibly low for a professional athlete. Professional cyclists are on the bike for over half the day, and there is even more work to be done on active recovery and strength training. Even runners, who are

Each HTTP request in a Go webserver spawns a goroutine, and there is no need to think about "freeing up threads" since coroutines are not OS threads. There's also no need to leak the word `async` all over your codebase. The p

Anecdotal, but alcohol is one of the more harmful drugs. I can't even drink a little bit now that I run semi-seriously. One or two glasses of wine completely throws off my body for the next 24 hours, and increases the risk for injuries
