I've recently blown away my several years old custom Emacs config and started over with vanilla Doom Emacs (it's supposedly a faster version of Spacemacs, but I don't really know, I just took a stab and grabbed one of them).

Sounds like the package which-key [1] might help you out. (It comes pre-configured for those who use Doom Emacs, but I was using it in my personal config for awhile.). From the about: which-key is a minor mode for Emacs that displays the

If email were still my main communication at work (it's now Slack), I'd seriously look into Alpine, I had no idea that Pine went to live on in spirit.

Anyone remember Pine? Now, that was an email client. [1] [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pine_%28email_client%29

Exactly. There's reason stores are proactively boarding up their store fronts, etc. to mitigate the change of having to go through the horrendous loses of business loss, and fighting insurance companies for money.

We just login to each device with the same cloud account. I don't even think it's actually an apple account, because I'm on Android.

Big fan of this app, and I love it so I don't have to keep revisiting the sites. This is one of the few apps, I've purchased multiple times: for my iOS eco-system (I typically cook with my iPad), my android phone (so I can add re

I think this is spot on. Every time I've been to Europe to stay in an Airbnb in the last 4 or 5 years, it's been a professional operation. Same with most of the properties in the states. These weren't people leaving their h

Would be interesting to know what % of AirBnb Hosts do it on a semi-professional basis. I get your arguments for the mom-and-pop opening your house and all that. But everytime I've been to Europe, or to big cities, the AirBnbs were a

I agree with this. I don't know what cadence that anything needs to be on the release train that quick on any company of any size. My teams typically do PRs are part of their morning routines, and when they're occasionally interr

I believe these lists of questions are just ideas for ice-breakers and how to guide a conversation likely designed to inspire new-ish managers. Good managers will know their team member well enough to be able to adroitly kick-off the one-on

I've actually quit coffee a few times for 6+ month periods. One thing you'll notice, or at least I did, coffee just didn't taste that good, and your mind quickly connects the caffeine rush it's going to get. Even tryin

It's pretty amazing how quick the industry has changed, and the course content has followed along with this. That's a lot of variety of content for 21 lectures. Would love to see a formalized online version of some of this stuff

Is S.O. a good example of a complicated/large distributed system? I couldn't find any quick googleable results on how many people work on their site. The reason I ask is I'm working on a product with 30-ish different pods&#x

Agreed. The extra $600/week is going to run out long before the restaurant industry recovers.

by taude 6y ago
The real argument is whether the restaurant is safe to open back up, and should be allowed to be opened back up. In hypothetical, if it's determined to be safe due passing pandemic, then of course the employees should have to go back

It's not just the unemployment benefits, though, people are getting an extra $600/week ON TOP of their regular unemployment benefits. And that's what's making this situation a little different.
443.
by taude 6y ago
The extra $600, though, is ON TOP of the typical unemployement benefits, from what I understand, so that a lot of people are making more than they would be if working.

Wow, that was my first computer I had in our house growing up and used it to write a lot of 8th grade history papers using PFS Write, playing Lode Runner, printing stuff in Printshop. Oh, and I remember programming basic on it, where you&#

For me the ideal size would be like a 10 or 11" device I could use for text-based things. (Think Emacs-ish only type of device, or something)....super light weight, long battery life.

I learned about this on HN a couple weeks ago. Game changer for me on the app dev side. Makes poking into the pods to look at logging way easier, especially since I'm not a specialized DevOps resource.

It should probably go without saying that most distrubuted solutions this days typically have several types of data stores in use: I'm using Postgresl, Redis, and Mongo all the in the solution for the appropriate use cases....
