The USA had their share of nazi-related business (IBM, e.g.), but no amount of whataboutism will save you from the simple fact that soviets entered the war as active allies of nazi germany.

Yes, yes, the "defense" where you occupy parts of Poland, attack Finland. And of course, providing resources and training facilities to the dear ally in Berlin. There is a reason why soviets always talked about "BoB" and

Well, if your boss doesn’t say what they think, you shouldn’t either. And why would even consider posting something to linkedin, in the first place?

There is nothing unethical about: you are doing the only sane thing in this system and economics. Morons, who work themselves to death believing bosses shit-talk about “our mission” and “we are in this together” will learn it the hard way.

I am practicing GTD since ~15 years already, but while I stick to some practices (review, inbox and so on), I have a simpler setup for projects and files, sufficient for my needs. One of the lessons is that GTD and productivity systems are

Same here, PragmataPro stopped me from switching fonts. Maybe because it was so expensive ;) It just has a lot of attention to detail and polish. I was using IBM Plex Mono and Iosevka before.

This damn U2 album still appears in my smart playlists in Apple Music from time to time - it is insane that I can’t delete it completely so many years later.

The interesting question is: is it really that bad at Rust, or does Rust's strict compiler just catch more errors which remain hidden in, let us say, Go? The usual hand-waving response is that developers should write more tests instead

No need to convert me there, I am already in the church . For programming purposes emacs is not that different from any modern editor - there are some built-in capabilities, the rest you get from ELPA/MELPA/Git. It has no proper

I don’t care about opinions on Go the language, but the tooling around is excellent without being bound to an IDE. And no matter what you use: Goland, VSCode or dape in Emacs, your debugger will plug in the same delve. > the large majori

Modern stacks (as in go and rust) are largely editor agnostic - it is Gosling who lives in the past, thinking that an IDE is still required(and a very weak one, in case of abandoned Netbeans). One of the reasons, btw, why I would take Go ov

It is how Beorg does it - they have a subscription covering everything, but users can also buy singe features. However, I imagine that at some point the coding will get quite complex - developer has to build a couple of feature toggles and

Modus themes are so rad - they look bleak at first, but after a while they grow on you. Then you try some other theme and notice how terrible it is to look at due to lack of contrast. I am convinced now that most theme makers have not the s

I've had some bags of liberica recently and it is very interesting. A lot of vanilla, overshadowing all other flavors. I prefer arabica, but I am also 100% for ending the arabica/robusta monocrop in favor of more coffee species. I
