I like using fzf combined with zsh's shell history filtering. You can type `cd ~` and press CTRL+r to immediately fuzzy match commands you've run with `cd ~`. fzf naturally ranks paths to cd into on top. If you find that too noisy

I don't think distributions or OS vendors focus on that because imagine the outrage if you installed Windows and it pre-installed Zoom, Spotify and 80 other apps for you out of the box. I think it's popular because DHH turned dotf

I'm surprised so many people who want to use Arch aren't in it for the fiddling. I've had publicly installable dotfiles with a "1 command and ~5 minutes later" you have your development environment set up for a few

For around 10 years I've walked 2-4 ~(3-6 km) miles a day but when traveling I usually go into hardcore walking mode since I like hiking and exploring places on foot. It's not uncommon to end up walking 12-15 miles (~19-24 km) for

I didn't make the decision, the company I worked for did. I was asked to come up with a way to help make the process smooth. I don't know their exact reasons, probably budget related since they were already using O365. I can nearl

In this case we didn't need a long term solution for searchable data on Slack. We did the migration in stages, basically this: - Provide access to Teams - Create all of the new teams / channels there - Make Slack rea

We had dozens of channels with almost 10 years of business information in them. Over time the business gravitated towards putting anything long lived into other sources but since migrating off Slack was essentially a kill switch on our data

Slack lets you do a full export which even includes DMs depending on which plan you have. https://slack.com/help/articles/201658943-Export-your-worksp... When the org I was at moved away from Slack (due to costs)

If your external display isn't connected, what happens? Does Hyprland ignore that line from the config without an error and everything works normally?

Is there a comfort difference between daily contacts and monthly? When you wore yours for 2 months, what type was it?

by nickjj 1y ago
I've been wearing glasses for short sightedness for my whole life and also don't wear contacts because the idea of putting them in freaks me out. I always think about it from the point of view of what would happen if I want to do

I didn't like the idea of pushing a pass git repo to a private GitHub repo. For now I just temporarily drop the DB onto Google Drive manually (through the web site since I don't use the app) to quickly share it to the other device

I made the switch from pass recently too. I had ~400 secrets stored in it for almost the same time as you. Ultimately I wanted something easier to sync between multiple devices. Now that I am traveling more seriously I can't get away w

I use my dotfiles repo for this. For example in my dotfiles repo I'll have `etc/pacman.d/01-options.conf` and the dotfiles install script will symlink that to `/etc/pacman.d/01-options.conf`. This way the sourc

I wonder if MS will extend the deadline, especially since there's unofficial tools bypassing their restrictions. I remember last year when they announced removing a major MS Teams connector around webhook integrations. In July 2024 the

I can't speak for all companies but a few I've dealt with bought licenses exclusively for Docker Desktop access. They're not using private repos since they were invested in private registries through their cloud provider.

by nickjj 1y ago
A large company who is buying licenses for tools has to deal with this for many different things. Docker is not unique here. An IT department for a company of that size should have ironed out workflows and automated ways to keep tabs on who

ECR is kind of hard to beat if you're ok with being in the cloud. The last time I used it earlier this year for a company already on AWS, it was ~$3 / month per region to store 8 private repos and it was really painless to have a
