It does, but scalafix helps to avoid some of these issues. I’m not sure how important a very opinionated compiler is to you, but a compiler that does what it can + a good linter isn’t the worst combination. Once you tap into the Java ecosys

I find fermenting more trouble than it's worth, even if you like the taste (which I personally don't overly do). I make a lot of hot sauce (grow my own peppers) and usually just make a mash, boil that for a bit, and then essential

Maybe not nohup itself, but I often do simple background tasks + a blocking `wait` statement in a loop, for instance here: https://github.com/chollinger93/debian-scripts/blob/master/u... If you don'

makefiles in general are something that I quite frankly never figured people use with anything (forgive me for saying it) but "old-school C"... but I started using them earlier this year (the linked article is from Feb) after find

I use SQLite quite a bit and I think it's fantastic, especially since Hipp seems to be a wonderful guy (judging by The Changelog podcast). And you're right - use the tools you know and have running. I have all sorts of schemas and

Forgive me if it's an ignorant question, but what's the benefit of an ESP32/ESP8266 over a Pi Zero (W), apart from saving ~$5, assuming all your applications are indoors and don't need to run on battery? I've only r

Neat. Even w/o PoE already wired up, I guess a Pi Zero can be powered with a regular 12V line that every doorbell uses. Otherwise, getting this to run off batteries with a Pi (and WiFi) would be an exercise in futility - am currently b

The state of RGB is such a nightmare, and I am very glad OpenRGB exists. If I wanted to control all LEDs on my relatively new "Gaming" PC (Windows 10), I'd normally need software from Gigabyte for the GPU (which straight up d

Don't think the HN bubble is real life. go, much to my surprise, has been pretty well accepted by companies that used to do Java and Python exclusively (at least in my experience w/ projects). It's still insanely frustrating

Another thing that drove me up the wall recently (semi-related to leaking goroutines) are libraries that doesn't use the context package or a done/quit channel and can get stuck in long-running operations that hug absurd amounts o

I run a custom 4U server with consumer hardware (older Ryzen) and 2 network switches, ATT Fiber Box, 1U Mikrotik Router and various accessories at ~100Wh, so ~$9/month. I am surprised how energy efficient this stuff has gotten - I do r

I wholeheartedly agree with the "specialization" comment. Unless you are in a position where you can entirely rely on managed tools that do the work for you and all effort is centered around managing the data, rather than the holi

I have done the same with Hugo on my blog[0], but actually had to fork an existing theme to remove what I would call bloat.[1] The interesting thing for me is, while I personally certainly feel the "need for speed" and appreciat

While I do like my Gazelle a lot, to add to the GPU issues: It is capable of running 2x 3440x1440 with the internal screen on, but not if one of them is used vertically . As in, it will work, just not rotate. Once you close the lid (and di

That's what I do with my website[0] as well (just on nginx and with vim via SSH). However, something that requires more functionality - syntax highlighting, tags, version control, easier deployments - I recently switched to Markdown +
