   if you don't trust the cloud with your data, you should just invest in a good server instead of RPi. The RPi is seriously underpowered and this one of those things which just fantasize about but don't get around to actually doing

   I don't have the patience to read a book about a programming language. What I need is crisp insights and honestly the book you linked is just way too time consuming. I just need the essence and I will learn as I dig deeper into the lan

   Rust is trying to solve well known problems. What is unique about rust is how it solves them. To emphasize that, what is required is a document that clearly explain how it's done and how the syntax of Rust is helping the cause. Instead

   Sorry, this logic makes no sense. Just because you are having discomfort does not mean it has any value.

   > Short term revenue isn't always worth the long term reputation hit. What? 200k/year is a lot of money and a norm in these companies. With 10 years of such money, I can retire for life.

   Is that a joke? Just doing a cursory reading of your blog post was terrifying to me and I could hardly understand why things are so complicated. It almost make it seem like programming is some 'puzzle' (I feel same way about boost

    I get the opposite feeling. When I write in Rust, I have feeling "that's how programming shouldn't work". The syntax is awkward and you are expected to spend weeks to get anything done. Ultimately, it seems to come down

    I do like cloudron better here for self-hosting. To each his own.

    I have been using https://meemo.minimal-space.de/ . Obviously, no where close to evernote functionality but it covers the basic 'remember the milk' case.

    Such bullshit. Has democracy lost it's meaning? There was an election. The majority voted and Trump won. Stop all this meaningless hate and bullying of trump supporters.

    I am amused by all these comments of upgrading 2-3 year old laptops. I must be from an alternate world since I am using a 4 year old Lenovo carbon and it's awesome. I have no plans on replacing it until it just totally dies.

    Sorry for the confusion about saying Google NS is down :-) I meant dig heroku.com @8.8.8.8 does not work (as pointed by some other poster it is because google NS honors TTL but opendns does not)

    Switch to OpenDNS servers - 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. Even google NS are down it seems. Heroku works after switching to opendns.

    Interviewing is a two way street. You have to be high enough in the food chain to be able to reject companies. Otherwise, you are going to just face such meaningless things over and over.
