I've found that few adults think this way. A lot of them avoid exercise and healthy eating because they perceive these as hard and complicated, and they are afraid of doing the work and likely failing anyway. Mainstream advice doesn&#x

This is a bit harsh; the article does contain a lot of useful advice. I myself implemented many of these tips about two years ago, and am still going strong. I do fall off the wagon here and there and get sucked into my phone, especially wh

Hah, I recently had to setup a cronjob that rsync's my org-mode files to iCloud. (iCloud didn't work with symlinks, but I needed to somehow sync my org-mode files to my phone.) Anyway, my org directory happens to be a git repo, an

I didn't know about the --force flag. You can also whitelist files in .gitignore with !filename.[0] Is there a reason to avoid symlinks? I've been using this setup for a few years now, (using an artisanal, home-rolled script befor

When I did the setup I kept the commands I used in a Makefile. In theory, running `make` should do all the setup for me on a new machine.

Just don't push to GitHub. :) You can also pick and choose what you want in the repos with this method. It's a very useful technique for tracking and rolling back changes to dotfiles that you care about. You can even make backups

Different things are important to different people. I did have a "digital paranoia" phase but it gave me more anxiety than it was ever worth. :)

This is just the way I see it: unless you make a deliberate effort to scrub yourself off the Internets, most people leave a bewilderingly enormous digital footprint. I think that's what makes the analogy with the physical generation no

Yeah. I meant that I don't see the value in keeping those snapshots for years and years. Space is cheap, but for me there was something unhealthy about the practice, which is why I used the word hoarding. Deleting the hoard was actuall

I totally understand the desire to keep a record of the past, and space is cheap so why not. I used to be a big "digital hoarder", virtually never deleting anything that might be a bit interesting. But a couple years back I delete
