"Things are tough right now, but once we close this deal then we'll be in a much more comfortable position. Your role on this is critical to our success." Is this not a reasonable way of approaching it? It seems to be simulta

I see! It appears Ubuntu 22 has both Pulseaudio and Pipewire installed, and Pulseaudio is set to the default, with Pipewire just not enabled. Will poke around at it. Maybe they're making some incremental transition still. Thanks for th

Someone's going to invest potentially 100s of dollars a year x 100s of inputs it gets? The open internet is crawlable. This seems pretty far from a risk vector.

Hey there, just wanted to share my experience with you. I've used Macbooks for the past like 6 years for programming, after several jobs in Silicon Valley required it. Apple has been pretty much okay except for some key issues around m

It feels like part of this may be some needed mental shift from a scarcity mindset to a prosperity mindset. My mind always goes to the very optimistic, Utopian world in Star Trek, where humans have identified that we can afford for people t
