Thanks, I'll test them out and apply the changes. It sounds like all 4 of the history env vars don't need to be exported.

Thanks, I'm always open for advice. * For shell history I don't think I've encountered that issue yet. For example if I have zsh loaded and run `bash` and then within that bash session run `whoami` and exit bash, my `history`

Yep, I use zsh with 2 plugins. One for syntax highlighting commands and another for showing auto-suggestions. It's really fast. The rest is nearly a default zsh set up in terms of zsh configuration. Everything is documented in my dotfi

It would be interesting if they offered a $99 option that gave you access to the source code with no active license but did let you run it locally so you can see how it works in private. For someone who is more interested in the code than t

Nope, but I just tried. I went to their site and noticed there's no binaries for Windows. The site is also served over HTTP (not HTTPS) and the default experience for apt installing it on Ubuntu 22.04 didn't work due to a bunch of

You can but it's back to depending on code to get the totals. This is one spot where IMO being able to visualize the data by seeing the rows and have immediate feedback on the sum is useful. You can continue dragging or use CTRL + SHIF

One thing I often do with CSVs is sum up all or specific rows in a column. For example maybe you're doing end of year taxes and now you have this large CSV export from your bank or payment provider with multiple categories and you want

I'm surprised banks even allow USB based storage devices to be connected. There are tools you can run on managed systems to block these devices from being able to be used.
