I feel their "responsibility" and "trust" argument is maybe a little oversold here, but their final paragraph is right on the money. I would argue a better title is "No rules/process by default". Which do

I'm an atheist, and don't believe in anything spiritual. But I do think there are things that inspire me, make me feel connected to the world around me, and make me think. I love philosophy and history and I am constantly reading

This is what I do, and I use Obsidian as a layer over it as it is designed with this kind of structure in mind. You aren't locked into it in anyway. It even has a Vim mode.

if you look at the stats in the US, chrome is slightly less than 50%, safari has a much bigger slice of the pie (with edge a wee bit more popular than the worldwide trend)

I think the title might be misleading you, when it mentions compiler speed, it means, for the same language there are different compilers. It's about runtime speed of different languages and different compilers for those languages

key word being "easier". Thing is, when something is already easy, claiming "easier" is better isn't really a thing. Given clicking on the windows icon is actually a "sometimes" activity, it doesn't

we use a cherry pick model all developers develop features, we then cherry pick what features we want in the next release, do a release branch, merge in features, test (and if necessary, fix) then merge into main.

I think the grandma case is just made up. I've seen older people use win11 just fine, they aren't so incompetent that they can't click a button on their task bar. If they are having trouble with that, then even if they coul

for me, that's way worse, I much prefer to get full width, on my 32 inch monitor, it looks nicer on the default website, and fits way more stuff without needing to scroll. If I want a similar layout for "reading" I'll

Nice write up. From my understanding, this sounds like it would be a good secondary attack, if you could hack the server and the RDP server, when the admin RDPs to the machine, you then attack the admins machine. Disaster ensues
