    I think the boiling is closer to 18 hours. I do a pretty good one in about 5 in my instant pot, though. Another big problem with getting a "ramen" in a random western restaurant is…

    I think just putting it on the companies is enough. If the fines are serious and can put your company out of business, and are enforced, then the companies themselves will probably…

    I'll just note that I'm using revolut and some of my virtual cards on there appear to randomly be created as Visa or Mastercard. Well, couldn't pay for Claude with my Visa (no matt…

    Ah yes. The shortcut I use the most in Jetbrains IDEs. Also the one I miss the most in VSCode (whatever is present there just doesn't seem to work right). Also the shortcut that ha…

    Since everything is essentially opening WebApps via QR codes on your WeChat/AliPay app, it's actually great for tourists. The apps have a built-in option to do machine translation …

    Fair question. Conflicts happen, which I'm fine with. Realistically speaking, most files I have in my cloud are read-only. The most common file that I read-write on multiple device…

    I'm using the nextcloud app on my android, and for my Linux systems I mount WebDAV using rclone, with VFS cache mode set to FULL. This way I can: 1. Have the file structure etc syn…

    Right, but then you need to learn the right motions well, motions that will make sense at the final speed. I suppose it's one of those things that are made easier by having a teach…

    For me, searching for "whistle" on play store, I get the app as the third result (ignoring sponsored crap). Searching for "blazingbanana" gets me the app as the first result". App …

    This is actually the first plugin I install on every new installation of a Jetbrains IDE... Used to include it in my "mentoring about advantages of IDEs" rants, just before configu…

    So after building my latest rig and crazily getting a lot of driver issues related to network I've finally ditched Windows for Linux. While trying to figure out how to keep track o…

    A bit funny, but I personally found "please learn to never..." to be MUCH more off-putting and patronizing than the "why not just...". Maybe just something about the latter being i…

    Just to clarify, I didn't think that Coolify is a competitor. What I was getting at is that we now have a thread with 4 replies: (1) you pitch competing product (2) what product? (…

    The link to the "competitor" is front and center on the site, so I imagine what you're really trying to say is that this is NOT a competitor for the following reasons: . Otherwise …

    The reason it won't really work for gamedev or complex software is that the risk of the business isn't really in the product-market fit, but rather in stellar execution. If your bu…

    Not sure if you're just trying to troll, but you don't get elected into any Duma if you're from the opposition. In fact I don't remember there being any real (elected) opposition i…

    I feel like this only makes sense in the US. As a non-US person, I still find it weird when people show up on video calls wearing hats (e.g. caps) at home.

    I think this doesn't quite qualify if it only affects customers that are currently in Russia. If a person was born in Russia, created their Hetzner account there, then emigrated, a…

    With luck this would work. I think a lot of people who emigrated would not necesarily bother updating the postal address details, so this email might just remind them to do the upd…

    Just wanted to say thanks for posting this. It makes a lot of sense to me, and resonates with the experience I've had both as a noob to programming (or to a new role) and as a pers…

    From what I've heard (personal hearsay, got no independent sources), some excavators were sent to ruin highways. Edit: here's a link but this is not on the main highway. Unsure of …

    Another option (which I'm partial to) is something like "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". Not everyone is on top of who's part of the mercenary company and some people could ju…

    For people complaining about ASUS offering - it did look bad on paper with it's crappy latency and even crappier brightness, so I never pulled trigger on one. I did find some decen…

    Can't you just set up a monthly (or one-time) donation? Although, it would be nice if it were possible to specify that you'd prefer money being spent on the browser, not on develop…
