there’s definitely a difference between a meadow (and the suburban front yard conversion thereof) and an unkempt traditional grass lawn. the latter suggests a resident that doesn’t keep up their property.

i blame our reliance on email addresses as usernames for services. i don’t want multiple email addresses, and the idea of switching seems overwhelming.

this is the kind of thing you spend so much time setting up and then it just stops working weeks or months later. i would never attempt to do something like this without automation. talk about a maintenance nightmare as the underlying syste

i hope that one day i’ll have a computer fast enough to run emacs crisply. snark aside, it’s slower than every other modern editor i’ve tried (after i get it configured). part of it is no doubt what i’ve done to it, but shit, if it’ll take

a <$10 battery or crank-powered radio for emergencies would work just fine. integration in the car’s system seem unecessary.

i’d rather ditch AM radio in the car than pay more for better shielding, design, etc. i mean, i’d prefer both, but i think it’s likely either-or. i neeeevvvveeer listen to AM. maybe there’s some value in emergencies, but i had a different r

stackoverflow can be useful, but it’s not and never has been great. it’s very much the definition of good-enough. so i think with AI chat tools giving traditional search engines a run for their money at the moment, stackoverflow is looking

it’s amazing how much younger and sharper exercise, proper diet, and good sleep can make you feel. or at least, that’s been my experience. i was astonished when i realized it wasn’t as much “getting old” as it was ”shit habits” that i was f

there’s nothing wrong with a persistence-centric approach like you took, but there’s also certainly nothing wrong with catering to your audience. we should strive to provide a better gateway than we had when we were young.

i think what gets lost here is how we’re defining uptime. if you’re regularly experiencing ec2 outages that result in your apps and services being unavailable i find it very hard to believe you’re using ec2 correctly. running a bare one-off

the statement doesn’t even make sense. “aws” isn’t a single service and measuring uptime across every aws service is nonsensical. obviously they mean ec2, but even then lumping all regions and azs together is weird.

so outerbox connects directly to the db without using a bridge service like Mode does? meh, i don’t want to allow inbound connections from the internet. i absolutely hate mode, but i liked their bridge connector.
