    Hats off to you on the ham license! My friend just got hers too! Re: markdown and hugo, that's an excellent combo. You could easily setup a raspberry pi or $5/mo vps to serve it be…

    I've found that one of the areas I enjoyed least is now what I spend a lot of time on now: testing! Property-based testing in particular has uncovered a number of invariants in eve…

    I've been a fan of the em dash since college. Only recently learned what the shortcut on macos is (opt-shift-dash) but setup text expansion a decade ago. Think we need better AI te…

    Been following zed for at least a year now. Tried switching multiple times from vscode but it's just not feature complete for my use cases. Off top: - no expanding tabs to fill the…

    I remember the OG XPS 13 had what Dell called "project sputnik". To my knowledge, it was the first time a Dell laptop shipped with Ubuntu, if not Linux. Really wanted one, but was …
