Like using lot's of public money to offer cheap populist assistance through loans on public banks? Or the known-but-hidden connections to certain types of associates. Or using the federal highway police to stop lot's of buses for

I urge you to take serious look on all methods we have for scrutiny and validation before such comments. People invalidating valid paper votes on 80s were a thing, impossible to prove, unlike the auditing we have today. It's not onlin

I want to add that I've been using tmux for the last decade. I went from gnome-terminal, konsole, multiple remote ssh sessions (tmux on the remote side for long running sporadic jobs like repairing databases), Windows Terminal, iterm,

You need to try a little bit of everything. In my case I'm giving myself time, but using my own stash. I'm not exactly burned out RN, but not willing to work with the same stuff as before or at the same type of environment. DIY st

Yup, Casio fx-991ES Plus, since undergrad. It frees your computer screen to keep the code or spreadsheet open. Smartphone apps brings too many distractions, so it's a win. Nowadays I just use for simple stuff, but I did used before for

We are not used to such changes. And people here are not used to change from winter clothes to summer in the same day. Like I said, it's usually associated to autumns in the south (carrying both types of clothes). Since people is not p

Well, it's definitely weird this year. I'm in Rio, but I'm from south Brazil, my entire family is using more meds to counter allergies due to temps and humidity changing a lot. I'm changing from using winter clothes (lon

Amazon provided me extra discount on top of a discounted price. But only for selected products. It's easier and more manageable than my bank credit card rewards. Also many services like doctors, vets, etc are much easier to pay. The on

My banks all have different mechanisms, but all around limiting the amount. For instance in one of them I can add trusted accounts for unlimited amounts (it takes a random time from 24 to 48h to get it through), for all others I have a real

It's not the sender, but the receiver. CNPJ's ("SSNs" for Juridic/Business entities) pay a % of the received money. Many banks, specially the neobanks/fintechs are making it free for small business tho. I have

Hey! Thanks for this tool. I was testing and paying copilot, including the new chat integrated tool, but I feel your work flow proposal is more compelling. That said, I'm not sure what's the difference between providing my own ope

Painful to import things from Logseq or Obsidian. It imports one md at a time, and the 'zip' thing does not click me. It seem to focus too much on individual collections and pages and investing time upfront thinking about how to

I can provide my anecdote. I prefer jokempo, and I miss meetings with other nerds in the CCMQ and going to Jambo bookstore. Late 90s. Then using this with colleagues at the local universities.

Give a try on displays of different sizes, like a 13/15 laptop with 27 external. The best I found is 21 and 27, just need to find a decent 21 modern replacement that is not low contrast LCD. Even better if you can dim the brightness of

Yup, even with a giant 4k display, I have only a single tab/window open. 2 windows side by side tops. I found that two displays of different sizes better as well. The smaller is clearly the secondary. I wish that an easy way to switch

I prefer colored all the way, specially when "boilerplate" words become less vibrant, like 'def, fun, function, begin, end'. Pure white/black words are really painful because it causes paralysis when trying to re-re

Nice! I love testing new fonts. Using wezterm and alacritty (fedora 38) they look wildly different from JetBrains Mono - specially the width/ line height, but on the website they look similar in width/line height. Anyone knows why

Can you pay a popcorn seller in the mid of a street in seconds by just scanning a QR code? Then it debits from your bank account to the popcorn seller account in < 1 second? This is the reason Visa and Mastercard are being beaten hard on

Awesome! I will be sold forever when something similar to tmux ressurect is available. Also I want to point out the way this is being handled in GH issue 575. It's taking time, but the politeness of many people, specially @imsnif is ou

I can definitely relate to this. I bought this for my daughter 2 years ago, she was 5. It's more a introduction to what can be seen in any kids related programming apps, like Scratch, and it's a paper book, so it's less abstr

Getting answers for AWS stuff, like CLI commands and others that are extremely obtuse to find using the aws docs. Sometimes the command/configuration is not really correct, but you can find the correct article easily.

You can buy the dehydrated seed here in Brazil in drugstores, specially the smaller stores. Some truckers use it all the time, under the tongue, to avoid controlled meds as well. I'll try to mix with my mate, never tried. :)

Kuat today is full of sugar and added caramel, to be cheaper and compete with smaller brands. Fanta is trying to compete with Antarctica (that is from AmBev). I'm buying Fanta because it's cheaper than Antarctica. 2L pet bottle is

The person that received the money has some days (7 I think) to send money back with 1 button click on the his Bank App without knowing the account details it needs to send back. So yeah, you need to contact the person on the other side.

Nice to know! Nonetheless, what moved me from bash to fish was having this as granted. Now I worry only about specific higher-level functions. Also hunting each of these optimizations distracts me from my task at hand. There's other st

It makes, I was not aware of these gems. Just bought the 12 pdf pack to show to my 7-yo girl that what I do sometimes is "fun" (and a refresher for some of the topics for myself). Thanks!
