Five years ago, I would've loved this. I love the simplicity and power of good old Make. And I obsess over my workstation's configuration. I used to have a massive bash script I would use to reprovision my workstation after every

This is my impression as well. ClickHouse has tons of useful features built in that seem like they'd work well here. Though the documentation about those features has been very scattered and hard to find in my experience

Are there any good, non-tiling window managers that support tabs? (I struggle with tiling ones like i3 because I am a small-brained mouse user)

This is a pretty cool idea. Kind of a neat distribution hack if all you have is a TUI (and not a full GUI). Curious whether you know of any success stories yet

Thumbnails are not even needed - they can just use a plain old img tag in the readme with an external src.

em dash + "x rather than y" sentence construction is setting off my brain's LLM detector here.

Same, doesn't render well on Android/Chrome either.

Yeah, that's the intent. It's why I listed several options

Here's a (flawed) thought experiment: imagine that 100% of customers' RAM suddenly goes faulty at the same time, and RAM prices have suddenly skyrocketed to infinity at the same time. Which outcome is ideal? Which one is morally c

You can tunnel a port over SSH and get a web UI locally, though it's not commonly done. I feel like more people would actually do this if tunneling a port was just ever so slightly easier (like, you're already SSH'd into a bo

I am confused for the same reason you are. Isn't the rust code just "pre-jitted" code essentially? i.e. hand optimized. You are going to want to hand-optimize some functions in cases where the jit cannot do a good job in its

The evidence suggests that XML was never that popular though for the general audience, you have to admit. For Web markup, as an industry we tried XHTML (HTML that was strictly XML) for a while, and that didn't stick, and now we have HT
