I took my Seiko 5 in for service mid last year, and after that it kept time well. I don't loose more than a minute over a week or more. But, I specifically sought out a mechanical …

If IPv6 was going to be successful, it would have been successful years ago. It seems, people are just more comfortable with layers of NAT than native IPv6 everywhere. I'd guess th…

Some of the other practices of CI are also important. Not explicitly mentioned by the article, but perhaps implied. CI is a lot more than just running tests on pull request. It's a…

I was also going to mention this reminds me of Vala, which I haven't seen or heard from in 10+ years.

I've been using JetBrains IDEs for the last 11 years. Before that I used Emacs and Sublime Text. I've tried VSCode, Zed, and others. There's just no comparison on the code insights…

I'm happy I switched to Colemak around 13 years ago. Mostly due to elbow pain. I do find it made a difference there. In general, I do type faster than before, and faster than many …

I've seen a number of ESP32 IoT devices here on HN, and I haven't heard many of them use firmware encryption with an eFuse. In this case, it would have been pretty hard to create a…

He talks about it in one of his videos. The zip directory was a product of a side hustle of his, which Microsoft then bought out. In the video he comments how much easier it was to…

I haven't checked in many months, but in the past it never has. It kind of semi-works but it's pretty buggy. I use Chrome for teams. I'm on Arch Linux.

Years ago I used a very simple bash script font-end for Duplicity called Duply. It worked very well for the half-dozen years or so I used it.

This is my most favorite font to date. I've tried lots of others, but I've enjoyed this one the most. 100% worth the purchase.

I use iwd and systemd-networkd. I don't use may applet or gui control. With my setup I just and up ignoring network configuration the majority of the time. Edit: I've found iwd suc…

I've used Roam Research for note taking for the last year. Before that, I spent two months trying out a dozen competitors. Using it the last year has been amazing for me. I definit…

I've been using Duply as a simple CLI front end to Duplicity (not Duplicati) for years now. It's worked great for me on many servers and personal machines.

Operating Systems: Three Easy Pieces. Very well written read, a fantastic textbook overall. https://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~remzi/OSTEP/

Working with the ESP32 is what introduced me to the concept of eFuses. Really neat. Allows you to run encrypted firmware images which cannot be easily decrypted even with full phys…

What alternatives have people come across? I know there is waterfall: months of planning followed by months of implementation, followed by a single deployment at the very end. Then…

Does the team use a mono-repo? Or have multiple repos and track changes for that week to review? I'm very curious. Curious enough to even try it.

I have used Arch Linux for the past 8 years. I've had 3 installations on four different laptops (I migrated one installation to a second laptop). Your comment would be a really gre…

Have you ever seen CockroachDB, or Yugabyte? Both are not eventually consistent, but are horizontally scalable. It looks like to me it is a solved problem.

I agree. I have had many similar struggles as you have had. With my commute I often came up with interesting ideas or solutions to problems. I've found the online scheduled meeting…

My own experience working from home probably follows this. I've gone back to work now, but I spent 6 months working at home. At the end it took me 12 hours of time to make up an 8 …

Do you have weekly scheduled 1 on 1s? I have a few remote team members and make sure they pair up weekly just to feel connected and present. It's team member to team member, not li…
