   Typically the `User=` directive is used to specify what the user the service runs in. There is still a benefit to requiring root to create the service file though: If the service is compromised when it's running as `User=`, it can&#x27

   This was solved from beginning of systemd with different directories for files mananged by package managers (under /lib), and files managed by you (under /etc). This is documented in `man systemd.unit`: https://www.free

   > Kudos for making it daemonless! It uses the systemd daemon to manage the services. It's not clear what an additional service would do.

   With lazy.nvim, I started with like 60 plugins in 17 milliseconds. The resulting feature set was closer to VS Code than Vi. If that’s “slow”, it was still so fast it felt instant.

   After I weeded my 20 year garden of personal content , I can confirm the blog was more relevant and a better user experience. Not all content should be immortal.

   Buses carry many more people, so the damage-per-user-mile is mitigated. Also, buses don’t require storage at the destination, aka parking. Cutting parking space allows the city to be more walkable, further mitigating vehicle damage. And inc

   I had a book like at that at age 10. I would spend what seemed liked hours typing them in to play the games… and usually there was a syntax error and they wouldn’t work, and often I couldn’t fix them. But I was fascinated and kept trying. T

    I'd say it was a fair price. I have work to do to reach ROI, but after some hours of spreadsheet building, I project a reasonable upside on the investment.

    As someone who just bought 900 Pokémon cards at an unadvertised estate sale at a roadside Michigan blueberry stand, I can relate. We had just stopped by for blueberries. I happen to see a couple unlabeled sheets of paper tacked up in a corn

    I use Sway, a tiling window manager, so the direction towards tiling seems sensible to me. If Gnome implements this well enough, I might consider switching back it from Sway. We'll see. I'm pretty pleased with Sway, though.

    ISO 26262 specifically mentions automotive applications. This seems to a step towards using Rust in critical automotive systems. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_26262

    I moved my personal projects to Gitlab. Philosophical issues aside, it’s a great product. Also, having borderline burnout maintaining popular open source projects on GitHub, there is refreshingly near zero issues filed on my Gitlab projects

    I tried using Google Bard, another LLM for learning Rust, and it had no awareness that solutions were specific to certain versions of software. So it would give me confidently wrong solutions for outdated versions of the software.

    I like YADM for managing my dot files and expect that even if I switched to NixOS, I would keep using it because it works well and I have no complaints about it.

    I coded in Perl back when it dominated web development and came to value practical over beautiful in language choices. CPAN made Perl the best choice for many tasks and the same can be said of NPM for choosing TypeScript now, regardless of
