I think you're referring to direnv as opposed to devenv.sh which does compete in the same space. Numentide was working on one too. I am using devenv.sh at work, at home I just nix develop (but this doesn't do services, but there

I agree, it's complicated workflows, it's too many options/features (that we never use), it's clunky and slow and some people are even using spreadsheets for some things ;) We were on Rally before which was okay. I&#x27

As others have said, Linear looks nice (no real experience). https://plane.so/ is an open source option that I have also not played with. I am always on the lookout for options since we're on Jira at $DAYJOB (and yeah

Vagrant is primarily for two things: 1) Isolated dev environments (cross platform/stack) (and/or easier onboarding) 2) A way to run services apps depend on (databases, job runners, cache etc). I am going to suggest one of the Nix

Now that it's warming back up a bit, here's that update: It was mostly okay. It kept working even with the -20c windchill and was always putting out heat. It's kind of subjective but I feel it struggled a bit eg the 'ro

Sigh, I need this a few week ago ;)...I just replaced my failed gas fired furnace with a Fujitsu XLTH 3 ton ducted mini split in the Fraser Valley (Mission BC). I only got 2 quotes (and spoke with a third, but not quoted beyond ballpark).

I am in the Lower Mainland (BC) and it's still dark(ish) at 8am. I've resigned myself to just getting up at 2am-3am in the winter - but it means crashing at 7-8pm. Note it probably is the shorter days that cause this as I have n

Going to add my vote for Frame.work: It's repairable, upgradable (MB swap for processors (3 generations of Intel and one AMD so far), ram and storage are socketed), linux support is fairly good with most things just working (running Ni

I am on Summer time all time. Winter is the worst for me since it means I get up an hour 'earlier' on the clock. The dark makes me want to crash and an hour earlier for that too. Also... 'standard' time means it's

The last time (one of them) Oxide hit HN there were some ballpark estimates based on the CPUs in use, switches etc. Someone else said 500K and up. I wish there was a 4U version (10-25K but I don't think that they could come close to th

I've been coding for 42 years (since the age of 13), about 33 years as a professional developer. I do tend to downplay the stuff I did on my own for the first 9-10 years because a lot of my peers started then too, but the stuff since
