The post was written in 2020. This year I'm getting better video quality on Teams, but before it was Zoom always. As for Google Meet, I still can't get a non-grainy image of myself or the person at the other end of the call.

Off topic but why do terminal emulators default to what on my computers are illegible colours? With a black background the blue that's picked for folders doesn't have enough contrast to read. On macOS iTerm at least comes with mul

Thanks, great ideas and I'd never considered XPath for SVG. I need to delve into that one further.

Would love to know what the app does. From the mentions of xpath all I can think is "visual xml editor"?

It still has the same gotchas as a user though. I was daemonizing a uvicorn (Python) process using systemd and could not get the Python script to write its log file anywhere. Not the current directory owned by the user, not elsewhere, and n

HN gets numerous articles submitted multiple times, as people discover them for the first time. It's frowned upon to repost too frequently but this was last posted to HN on Oct 28, 2019 so I see no problem with it.

I'd like to hear anyone else's experience of building a Notion like editor (or any other block based/full page editor) Something guides never cover and I am stuck on is how to let users drop "widgets" into these RTE

Your experience is valid today but for a different reason: if you're comparing millions of tiny files there's a lot of back and forth. If you're streaming a single archive, it only checks if that single file has been modified

Often they don't care because this makes it easy for Google to still index their content and blocks most humans.

I've read that for reverse sear the steak needs to be an inch and a half thick or more. That's rare to find here - have you made it work with thinner steaks?

No they haven't, and I've never worked out a way to clean it out of the reports. At minimum they need a disavow tool.

As someone who got massively excited by SmartOS, only to see adoption never reach even the minimal levels I hoped for - yes, I hear you. What would the hosting story look like now if 8(?) years ago 25% of servers had adopted SmartOS?

Thank you, that was a really helpful insight into how Libyans feel and I appreciate you taking the time to share it. If you can find a copy of "Hard Choices: The Making and Unmaking of Global Britain" by Peter Ricketts (ISBN-10: 1

Agreed. I don't accept that someone who has, as another commenter wrote: "done the same old crap for 20 years" is unlikely to be a senior engineer. I'm one of those. I don't know the latest JS frameworks. Or the one
