Other than a distro, what exactly do system76 provides in their lineup? Their laptops are clevo with different branding. Thelio doesn't seem good for the price point. I can have someone build me a custom cabinet at that price point (it

I am paranoid about the testing. Indian government doesn't seem to be handling this as well as the media or official report says. There is no mention of tourists from china/itlay present in my town a few days ago and taken away

I am reading the same two books, lol. I have planned for leetcoding and take up a few classic HN recommendations related to data structures and system design. I wonder how many people start with this exact combo and then it evaporates after

My dad is taking all the low interest business/housing loans before some of the banks grinds to the ground. Buying poor shares expected to bounce back. That's about it, I guess.

No, it's because of the asymptomatic nature of it and carelessness by the officials. Without supply and strong backend infrastructure, panic will only cause situation to worsen as people crowd up to get supplies, find them out of stock

sorry, the original title was long for char limit and the post talked more about iOS than others so I edited it. Will keep in mind not to do that again.

One way we can solve this and make it right is by taxing overtime more. Men tend to do overtime frequently due to having more time in the absence of unpaid labor work women have to. That overtime tax can be used to compensate everyone equal

I agreed with the first part. Not with whatever I said described later i.e stuff about not improving their lives and delegating the responsibilities. But I have found that every thread on women issues often end up with a men centric comment

I know I will get downvoted for saying this but every thread on women issues always get hijacked by men talking about themselves and how the world is unfair to them. That doesn't happen on articles on men. Those don't get hijacked

It's plain css so I don't see the reason why you wouldn't know those properties if you are doing frontend work. For example, mimicking the same shadow as tailwind component, you can add box-shadow: 0 1px 3px 0 rgba(0,0,0,.1)
