Red Hat didn't create a new thing from whole cloth, open source it, and prosper. They spotted an opportunity to sell a version of an open source thing to commercial customers. This, in turn, made product development out of what looks o

I love this, but I don’t get to pick the tool where my issues live. So I’d need this to sync to Jira.

I was in a situation not unlike yours when my wife got pregnant but I was unemployed, and hadn't had a W2 job for a long time. You have a job, take a deep breath - but clearly you will want a new job sometime soon. My advice is to focu

agreed, that's why my practical advice is less about college prep and more about meeting a lot of people who do a lot of different things for a living and letting those observations inform your direction and plans. fwiw my nieces ignor

Actual uncle here with an addendum: Don't go to college before you have a sense of what you are interested in learning. This may not apply to many HN readers, but a lot of young people show up at college quite aimless, and this is not

I've used both for a decade or more, and my opinion is that includes/partials is the only thing AsciiDoc offers that even justifies considering it as a markup language for docs. If (big if!) using includes/partials without Re

I don't often see the term narcissism misapplied that way. Regardless in this case I admire Art Garfunkel, the singer. But he clearly has delusions of grandeur. Not my opinion alone, to wit this Washington Post review of one of his mem

I don’t care to find it but a journal entry from Art Garfunkel’s web site crossed my radar many years ago. I recall thinking “wow, this is some next-level narcissism here.” This list (and the royal we!) produce a similar reaction.

AsciiDoc's flagship feature is the include directive (think partials). GitHub rendering doesn't support it. On GitLab you are limited to ~30 includes, after which your document just spits out source. So in most cases, you can&#x27

Sounds like you and I have similar reactions to marijuana. From “that smells great” to “I’m talking, but I can’t remember what I was going to say” in just three tokes. What I’ve come to understand though is that for many other people, marij

The genetic modification the ACF is doing is actually very controversial among the community of people commuted to restoring fruit and nut biodiversity. I just saw Eliza Greenman speak on this subject, never expected that to circle back to

I just watched this footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySlKKe38Pnk I can't help but think how awesome it would be to do that as a means of learning about WWI and WWII for example.

I briefly worked for a company in Atlanta that made big plans centered around the CD-ROM business card. It didn't work out as planned and I recall a storage area full of those oddly shaped things.

One of the hottest things I've ever eaten was at a Korean-run Japanese curry house in NYC. IIRC you chose spiciness on a 1-5 scale. The first time I tried a 2 and it was damn spicy. Next time I tried a 3 and it ruined my lunch, my prid

Good point. AOL was huge in the late 90s and I used to to connect with a bunch of people in my locality who I never met in irl and a couple people I met up with romantically. But there was no human network - just chat rooms people were eith

I'm sure you can get better tex-mex food within 3 miles than I could find driving for 3 days. My concern in that region would be drought and aquifer health, and yet my lawn is also dead here in New England.

We recently did the same, though in our case opportunity drove our decision and not careful consideration. We got quite lucky under the circumstances. My observation, fwiw, is that the American small town, self-sufficient and independent fr

Isn’t Bozeman the poster child for towns negatively impacted by tech workers swooping in, driving out local salaried families, and driving suburban growth? I’ve read a version of that in half a dozen stories since 2020.

I’d go further - it’s not just that we don’t need a way to ‘connect’ with people on a platform today (you can ping them in myriad ways). It’s that we don’t much want to anymore. The novelty of general-purpose social networking was twofold,

As someone who regularly gets invited to this sort of conversation, my advice is to never try to connect with someone via a meeting that is not about solving a shared problem. Instead, connect with your colleagues through work, get involved

If I had a dollar for every time I encountered a modal, tried to close it with `esc`, and fired up the settings for the SquareSpace site I unknowingly was visiting, I'd be able to fill up a tub with bills and roll around in them.
