Thanks for the recommendation. I'm going to try that out. On the Desktop I use RescueTime which has helped a bit.

Can you pitch me one why I should buy this over: tmux: Productive Mouse-Free Development? I shy away from preorders. Do you have a sign up list of when this is done

Ouch, where are people moving now. Waffles? Pedroes? I haven't been around this for a long time so I just sort rode my good ratio on what.cd for years assuming it would always be there.

Perhaps you might appreciate a different perspective. Broadly speaking, ergonomic devices are meant to combat repetitive strain injuries. I think of ergo devices as useful if they give you more variation. They might not be better positio

Really regret having bought a System76. I hardly moved it off my desk but it was completely broken after 2 years of use. Rj45 port broke (everyone at work had the same problem), battery life was poor and stopped charging altogether after

Echoing the parent, take it very seriously. One thing that helped me was an verticle mouse (Evoluent C in my case). There's on one thing that will solve you're problems, just bit a pieces that will contribute to long term manage

I used a hackintosh for a year for development. It took a day to setup, which is of course a lot more work than for a typical osx experience. However, once setup it was better than the mac pro I was using. Might have even been more stabl

> So within the next 2-3 years you'll have collected heaps of USB-C... I agree with you that in the future USB-C is better and makes more sense. However, I don't think that the logical conclusion is that we should get rid of U

>As a vim user, esc is pretty important. If you're a Vim user and have escape as one of the keys farthest away from you, they did you a favour. I don't mean that as a defence of the MacBook Pro. At the very least, switch caps

I would be more of the foodie bent, but I love Soylent. You don't have to eat it all the time, just when it's the best way to get your next meal.

One more +1 to that. It's easily the most impactful book I've read in years.

Not to me, but perhaps in Capitol Hill it is and that's what the parent meant.

I agree. Another option is to research which printers can trivially have their bullshit disabled. I bought a $30 printer about 5 years ago that I refill with bottles of toner for $2. The 'modding' involved a piece of tape over

I agree. Of course he should do that if it's what he wants to do. I only meant it as illustrative.

Since the article didn't answer the question of why, I'll submit a partial answer. People put a minimal value on their free time and so it gets sucked up with things of minimal value. One place I've noticed this in that plac

I do the same as the parent. I'm at my best in the morning and someone has to get my second best. The best part of my day is working on personal projects or spending time with my wife in the morning. Work get's my second best w

I used a Hackintosh for iOS development. If you buy parts that are generally well supported, you'll likely have minimal issues if any.

Yes, thank you. I strongly agree. I have a couple SIM cards since I live on the US/Canada border. WhatsApp and Telegram won't let me send messages when I switch SIMs and there is no other way to verify my identity.

Yep even just one beer will make it worse for me the next day. Also running, the harder I run the worse it is.
