An interesting thought experiment on that: if you convinced (non-violently, non-coercively) a shop keeper to give you something for free that wouldn't be stealing. At what point does doing the same with an AI till become the same thing

Already paying for copilot and the integration into editors is significantly more useful for me.

For this I have a NAS with a pretty basic script that runs nightly to clone any new repos I have and update those already backed up. They get organised into a directory structure mirroring that of Github: `./github.com/user/r

Just finished moving my rig to the T1 this week. It's a very impressive case. The Mjolnir was what I'd been after for a while but I think the T1 was a better choice for me due to the flexibility it offers.

While ncdu does the job I've found gdu (similar tool written in Go) significantly faster for larger directories. https://github.com/dundee/gdu

This does frustrate! On more than one occasion I've spun up a create-x-app project just to see what an implementation looks like to then do it manually inside an existing project. Then again when I'm greenfielding having the optio

Shame, used it a few times when they had a Monzo integration. Was really neat having a receipt show up in a banking app, despite the limited merchant support. Seems that went away a while ago. This idea has fantastic utility but needs an aw

This quote really hammers the authors point home, I remembered this article on this alone: > But the GOV.UK pages are written in simple HTML. They are designed to be lightweight and will work even on rubbish browsers. They have to. This

Thought the same! Scale includes everything from a minor AC fault through to entire building burning to the ground.

Was confused at first as toil is also 'time off in lieu'. AKA unpaid overtime, where you're not paid but get compensated with holiday.

Yes, we've seen multiple short outage periods over the last month or two. It feels like their 'standard' CDN isn't very good and they want to push you on their "Enterprise-grade global edge network" for anythin

Time based One Time Password. The app or password manager stores a secret, which when combined with the current time yields a OTP. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_one-time_password

Just installed it to play around. Really nice to have a purely offline app in this space. What did surprise me is the unskippable 'splash screen' with the sponsor message before the app is usable (several seconds), this would real

Another user of tweek here, loving the competition in the space though! The fact this can run offline without an account is great.

Yes it does, but that ship has sadly sailed. Though, on reflection, if I was on the other side of the argument I'd probably be for it.

Looks to be Mac only, any good cross platform alternatives?

Any way to download the whole set? What keeps me using Font Awesome is the npm packages and ease of integration into frontend frameworks. This set it seems you need to download each icon you want to use, copy into project &c.

Been using it in Gitlab for a while, was rather surprised Github didn't support it when I pushed a repo there. There was an outstanding feature request on their forum for quite some while so didn't hold my breath for this to be ad

I use a ThinkPad P14s running Ubuntu, runs two monitors fine: HDMI on one and USB-C to DP cable for the other. Had another ThinkPad previously with same port config also fine.

Looks cool, could definitely see myself using this. However, is this a commercial project? Would be worried about relying on it as it doesn't seem to have had any updates since 2020.

Mix of things mean I haven't changed it (yet) - As you point out having on a shared server isn't great. I do want a separate device for DNS, I don't want the network down because the 'everything server' needs a rebo

Have had the same problems, though it's always the Pi chewing up the SD card, a new card solves it. These guides really need a warning saying "If you find this useful, switch to using a server that doesn't rely on an SD card

Honestly sounds like you might want a tiling window manager Most of the time a workspace only has a single app in it and when I want a terminal side-by-side it's just one button press away.

Unsure if I could live without the right thumb cluster but would be really interested in a write-up/photos of this project.
