I mostly saw the value from watching Twitch coding streams. I found "The Mouseless Dev" book really helpful in setting up Archlinux with i3 and VIM as a guideline to try it out, th…

The main feature that requires SIP to be disabled is managing multiple workspaces without animating the swap between them which saves a ton of time and is key to the seamless feel.…

Glad there's someone else who's seen the light, I'll never go back :). I wish it was more natively supported, it might make me make the switch to MacOS for good (well if they fix t…

The hardest part for me was finding a good dotfile to base my hotkeys off of, and it's not quite as performant of course.

Yabai is awesome and a complete game changer on MacOS with skhd setup as a hotkey daemon. I set it up to mirror my i3 setup on ArchLinux and couldn't be happier. Switching to that …

Gun possession is a non-violent crime. It’s insane that Lil Wayne can’t possess a gun because he once possessed a gun in a place that only the rich, well connected, or retired poli…

The second part is reminiscent of how “net neutrality” is pitched in the United States. I’ve never felt that definition was true net neutrality due to the reason you outlined.

There’s no law banning the “stockpiling” of weapons in any locale of the United States or at the federal level. You can own hundreds of rifles, shotguns, and handguns even in place…

The way you phrased this is funny because it can be interpreted as either a pro gun or anti gun statement: 1. Civilians should be able to keep or carry a firearm without a license.…

This guy already broke every “sensible gun regulation” in the book: 1. Unregistered destructive devices per federal law 2. Unregistered assault rifle per federal law 3. Unregistere…

I think you should question your surety. Most states ban modern day assault rifle calibers for hunting deer because they are too small in diameter to do enough damage and deliver a…

God I hope so. I'm in for Larry Sharpe all the way.

Reading your comment history, it seems like you've been having a hard couple months. I'll save our adult conversation for another day.

Certain things were worse, certain things were better. Unfettered access to opiates prior to the FDA's formation never led to a crisis like we are seeing today.

I agree with you 100%, but these agencies are often headed by former executives of companies which they pretend to vilify.

Very true, Ben Sasse recently had a good statement on this topic at the Kavanaugh hearings.

Is there anyway to reverse course in the USA and remove power from these alphabet agencies that claim they know what's best for us? What happened to being a free people who could m…

NYC is a nice place to believe in in an idealistic way, but crummy when it comes to the nitty gritty function of the city. Source: I live here

Why not just let the market sort it out without a congestion fee? Surely there's a point at which there is so much traffic that people will stop taking uber/lyft and prefer to take…
