Examples of Musk benefitting Musk do not demonstrate a net-positive impact on the world. The artists criticizing Mr. Musk make a good point about what's really happening. https://y…

Funny, nmap was released in 1997.

PowerShell maps plaintext to objects without issue. No need to drop down into bytestreams. In the following example, 'choco' (Chocolatey) outputs a list of outdated packages in a c…

WSL on Windows replaces the need for uutils/coreutils. Running an actual distribution of Linux on Windows with WSL provides an actual Linux/POSIX environment. In my experience, the…

PowerShell also runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux. You pass objects instead of plaintext through the pipeline which provides a rich experience. The full .NET type and ecosystem are a…

POSIX commands are available on *nix platforms and PowerShell provides native functions or POSIX wrappers for most tasks. About the biggest issue is speed, but there's always POSIX…

PowerShell runs on Linux. I run PS as my primary shell [0] on Linux today. It's is open source too. You're not far away with how PowerShell can parse Linux commands. Instead of rel…

For years I've watched the rivers in Washington State receive consideration. Progress has been made and continues to be. Saying humankind has done "nothing" is not only mistaken, b…

Small trucks may cut enough emissions by reducing road-wear. If everyone switched from large trucks to an even larger amount of small trucks it's possible the problem is made worse…

Honestly, it's good to hear I'm not alone. Synchronization in Joplin concerned me too. E2EE is non-trivial to setup and Joplin will upload decrypted files if E2EE is misconfigured …

What happened with your Joplin sync issue? I am interested in using Joplin exclusively and use both apps currently. The Standard Notes development team is nice but refactors happen…

Ando Ngo has frequently posted information to intentionally muddy the situation and incite an anger against protestors. As a Seattle resident, my fear is that people are beginning …

DynamoDB is consistent and scalable, not fast and cheap. DDB is great for storing data that is required to be scalable and never needs to be joined. Add in DAX, developer time nece…

Dokuwiki will function perfectly for some specific use-cases. The file format and plugins are not something that should be glossed over with Dokuwiki though. Yes, it's possible to …

Hardly needs maintenance at all was not my experience. My primary driver for seeking out a new wiki was because of how difficult testing and managing Dokuwiki can be. Updates to th…

Seriously. wiki.js was easy to setup, simple to run, and actually works on mobile devices. Markdown files are published to an external git repository. I am happy with wiki.js. It's…

Some people will move away from a city and others will move to a city. It happens. Neither of us expects to see a sizable net movement from urban to "exurban" (rural) areas. Why ch…

> Why risk living in close quarters if this may be a recurring pattern and pay a premium for doing so. Your original assertion was renters will move because the city is unsafe duri…

Only time will tell for certain but the preemptive measures places like Seattle have taken appear to be paying dividends. Living in rural Texas is much more concerning than living …

Which keyboard combination moves windows around, the same as WIN+ArrowKey, after enabling "keyboard access" in MacOS?

It's my understanding that MacOS requires extra setup for those shortcuts regardless of Karabiner. If you feel that extra setup is acceptable then any almost modern OS will fit you…
