There is the code, the recorded state of the infra when you applied the code and the actual state at some point in the future (which may have drifted) . You store the code in git, the recorded state (which contains unique IDs, ARNs etc) in

Generally , across most DAP manufacturers, the android devices are all of those things that I don't want, and the non-android devices tend to be cheaper, lighter, with better battery life. I don't specifically choose non-androi

Well, I had something like this back in the late 90s (can't recall the year exactly) https://walkman.land/aiwa/hs-px297 Battery: 1AA gets 30h Dimensions: 111.4 x 29.1 x 80.7 mm Weight: 132g Ok, so

Never mind mp3 players, I'd love a small phone again also. It's ridiculous that there isn't a single decent android phone

Shanling OS is trash. Absolute trash. Hiby OS is decent.

For me it's not arbitrary. An android device is a general purpose handheld touchscreen computer that happens to be used for music. That means a bunch of things to me: 1. "Touchscreen first" UX 2. Heavier than it needs to be 3

You can write an agent.md file and gradually add to it as you develop the project. The reason junior developers get better is that the context goes from low to high over the time you spend working with them. Yes, "learning". I&#x2

Resizing windows on xfce (most themes) is next to impossible though. You have about a pixel sized border to grab. I used xfce since Unity came out. Switched to KDE Plasma about 2 years ago. Plasma is the most "sane" out of the DEs

That's like xfce!

While it's possible to write an ipv4 address in a bunch of different ways (it's just a number, right?) nobody does it because ipv4 standard notation is easy to remember. Ipv6 is not, and none of these attempts to simplify it reall

Ok very simple, left wing media lie by omission and push agenda via slanted headlines and opinions, as much as the right do. As a traditionally left wing person I did not know the extent of this. I no longer exclusively read left wing news.

Think of it like phone numbers. For decades people have accepted gradual phone number prefix additions. I remember in rural Ireland my parents got an extra digit in the late 70s, two more in the 90s, and it was conceptually easy. It didn&#x

I have a large open plan kitchen with one counter surrounded by hanging pots and pans, knives on a magnetic wall mount, all chopping boards stored vertically in racks and most of the condiments on a wall rack or in the drawers

Yeah my point about aircon (and to an extent, big vehicles) is that we have the ability, to a degree, to avoid or work around the problems that climate change is throwing at us. I personally take individual action on climate but I don'

I haven't used Windows in years, but surely a clean install addresses some of that? I don't think I've ever used whatever default OS was preinstalled on a laptop or PC that I bought. Or is the default Windows 11 just that ful

It's a bit like climate change. Every day we wake up in our comfy beds, we have aircon, gore tex, big cars, hurricane proof buildings. We see that there's a big problem unfolding over the next generation or two. Or three. Maybe a

Agree. If you use a rolling release you definitely need a strategy for stability. I turn off automatic updates and schedule planned full updates that I can easily roll back from. I've had two breakages over the years that required snap

So why bother with v6?

This! I guess a good number of tech people will have IPv4 home networks long after their non-tech parents, neighbors and friends will be using IPv6 (without even knowing it). IPv4 in the home is dead easy. You only need to remember the last

No. Take at any conflict in the world. Ok, nothing that China or Russia are involved in. IDK, let's keep it complicated and say, "waring factions in some African country that doesn't regularly make the news", or "sk

I think that everybody looks back with rose tinted specs. Off the cuff, I'd say that the BBC isn't as honest and transparent as I thought it was back in the 80s, 90s. Then I remember the Jimmy Saville cover-up. Britain's po
