I switched to Nixpkgs earlier this year, after getting annoyed with other options for working with Java and Python (in particular). NixOS on servers, Nixpkgs-darwin instead of homebrew (mostly), and Nixpkgs on Fedora for a laptop. Solid res

The terrifying aspect for me is that some of the more vocal climate activists seem willing to accept catastrophic, effectively permanent, biodiversity loss as long as short term human suffering is mitigated. I support non-zero-sum efforts i

Someone on HN recommended Financial Times to me a couple of months ago, and I've been really happy with it so far. Definitely worth the subscription. I still read the Guardian regularly, and glance at headlines on the Washington Post,

It seems like Stripe Atlas could be adapted to help people formalize side projects, with invoices and subscriptions, while providing guardrails to keep from having to worry too much about the minutia of business, taxes, fees and so on.

I use this hiking sometimes. Not as good as GPS obviously, but better than AllTrails.

There seems to be trend among streaming services to implement dark patterns to give themselves control over what's being played. This is distinct from discovery features, like starting a radio based on a playlist, which I actually enjo

Nontrivial numbers of people not dying of old age would also present some complications for society in general, without adequate planning. Anyone interested in seeing life extension being brought to market would be well served by addressing

Long term thinking, but would more rail capacity help? It does seem like long haul trucking is overrepresented in our logistics chain.

I don't think it can be called normal when hospitals are near capacity in some states (e.g. CO).

I grew up in Texas, and disagreements about the harm certain content (exactly which varies) can do to society, in or out of classrooms, could become heated in a hurry. I believe it's appropriate to err on the side of openness, and keep

Agrivoltaics, agroforestry, aquaponics and regenerative organic methods combine really well for modest commercial farms. I'm curious to see how, or if, these approaches scale, together or individually. Automation could be a decisive fa

I'm similar, but I would like to support labels intended for humans, along with various translations, as metadata on top of e.g. filesystem path components.

I've just gone through the process of configuring a new MBP with nix-darwin and home-manager, and I'm sold. Keeping my MacOS and my NixOS environments in sync has been a nice bonus. I still run Homebrew for a couple of services an
