Space does the same as the arrow for me - gets me through some sub-100 % of a transition to the next section, which gets more & more out-of-whack the more I hit it.

Just me or is the homepage basically unreadable due to scroll-hijacking? I can choose between hitting the arrow & getting halfway to the (faded out) next section. Or using the scroll wheel & skipping 3 sections at once. How do I rea

People like RSS because it's not algorithmic. People like Mastodon because it's not algorithmic. What I'm mainly curious about here is what drew this author to these two technologies in the first place? What's the hook f

It's got very similar benefits to Arch in terms of system setup and configuration with a few extras: - for the binary version the difference might not be as significant but bit for bit I'd say it's still more configurable tha

If the APIs of CLI utils is the primary concern, it's worth noting that they say their core userland is provided by "FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD" - so any friction here should in theory just be equivalent to the friction of usin

I get what you're saying but you've missed my point. You're optimising your execution but there's trade-offs: you need to think about optimising your software development model holistically. There's little point in

Exactly. Nuance. Every person bears responsibility for every decision they partake in, just as we also need to acknowledge that some have significantly more agency in such engagements than others.
