In my experience CircleCI is an excellent alternative.

The thing with arch is it’s mostly not more tweaks that give you better battery, it’s not having all the crap that Ubuntu preloads running that makes that happen.

I love AWS, I really do and I thought about using fargate because the promise of not managing your “cattle-like” servers is wonderful but they need to get the pricing within this stratosphere for it to not be a complete joke. I actually rea

Sadly this isn’t a modern solution. People have smartphones and occasionally have to login to Windows (without WSL). While I’d love for everything I use to provide an easily accessible *nix shell it just isn’t practical for phone use or mod

Use gnome. It just works for me. Either on X or Wayland.

I’m a mega bear on this. It’s Juicero 2.0 The bike’s only have a lifetime of a couple years and the experience isn’t that great. The promise of software upgrades only take it so far until planned obsolescence kicks in. This is just creating

This book is great. Seconded.

Exactly. The implementation is fine, it’s the interface that isn’t great.

Ok, whichever language.

xargs is great but doesn’t run the commands in parallel or chunk input does it?

It’s a shame that this tool is so incredibly useful but simultaneously so unergonomic to use that it requires a 12 page manual. Every time I reach for it the magical incantations that finally get it working properly are so completely unmemo

Agree, but this is only a decent bug report. A better one would just make a C program that mallocs more memory than is available. The "open enough tabs so that it crashes part" is like "banana for scale", it is incredibl

I’m not sure any more recent benchmarks exist, but try and use both and notice the difference first hand. One is clearly faster at the things that matter (text rendering and input) and yes — has less features. The reason for this is the sam

Most people do, learn tmux and you have a cross platform asset instead of a throwaway platform specific skill.

Still not as fast as Terminal.app

Cmd + D Cmd + Shift + D Or better yet, just use tmux!

I like having options but wouldn’t recommend iTerm. Apple’s Terminal.app is more performant rendering text and more responsive to input while admittedly having somewhat less unnecessary features. In fact, iTerm is one of the slowest termina

Your team needs excellent JIRA hygiene for that to actually work. I’ve been on and managed teams where it’s expected and demanded and others where it was an afterthought.

Not sure if you realize this but google doesn’t build android for you, it builds it for the carriers so what is in your best interest is not really considered. You aren’t the client.

It’s fixed since about 7 months ago. It fully supports S3 sleep state.

I haven't done anything like that and my experience has been great. I'm not even running Ubuntu or Fedora or anything like that, just vanilla arch linux.

The X1C7 just came out so the price will be dropping like a stone on the 6th gen pretty soon.

by tbrock 7y ago
I'm a hard +1 on this. Currently running Linux on an X1 carbon 6th gen and it is fantastic.
294.
by tbrock 7y ago
Well you made one huge mistake... you must run Linux on the x1 Carbon for it to be amazing.

by tbrock 7y ago
Why can’t we do both that and this for even more gains?

by tbrock 7y ago
I have to agree with the quoted text. As a purchaser of the pi4 how could you not have tested it with arguably the most popular usb-c charger and cable on the planet?

X1 Carbon!

Just run Linux and then run a Windows VM in QEMU, seems like you can do this now.

I love open source as much as the next person but thunderbird is bad, not evolution bad, but bad. If you have hundreds of thousands of email messages from a decade of email it just breaks. I’m +1 on superhuman but I miss sparrow.
