Is there any part of California that runs power underground rather than overhead cables? I understand it’s a significant cost and effort (sometimes infeasible) but at this point in time, just based on the past few years, I’m surprised not t

Just gave it a whirl, purely default Mono settings. Did not feel right. I agree with the sentiments of the curly braces feeling too curly. Maybe after a longer adjustment period it'd be fine, but compared to my years of Roboto Mono, it

This is a very nice looking font, I may have to try it out. I’ve pretty much stuck to Roboto Mono (with powerline for shell and ligature symbols [on/off] for editors) the last few years. I personally find it readable.

I don’t disagree with any of that. I usually prefer building my own when I’m the maintainer/builder. But not my current situation, a few things to note: * I have (hopefully) one semester left. After that, I’m gone. * A good portion of

Student admin myself here at Uni. With Dell being our primary provider I did some general comparisons with the currently available EPYCs. Our Dual socket Skylakes (36 total cores without hyperthreading) with 128GB of ECC ram cost ~18K each.

This is what I do for anything I make that I think would be easier to find on GitHub. And vice versa for my own build tools so I can accumulate the projects I use from GH under one group on GitLab.

Fair point. I've only been to a few BitBucket repos in the past year or two and I never really enjoyed the experience.

For those of you using GitLab, BitBucket, or <insert-other-git-host-competitor-here>, does this make you consider switching back at all? If so, why? It may be myopic, but the only major reason I can think of is visibility if you plan

The issue there is you're running a VFX application on a Mac :P I mean that 50% sarcastically and 50% sympathetically. Apple support has not been stellar the past few years across 3D applications. Not sure when the last time you used t

> it's where you learn the time complexity of btrees. I’m having flashbacks... Thanks for that ;) Time complexity was my worst CS topic. At least, for implementing the most efficient system. I’m not an algorithms guy.

Thanks! This helps me understand a bit better. So away from binctr, which should just be considered a reference, a rootless system isn’t just about being able to run i.e. execute a container, but also go into and modify, like using the cont
