Mr. Satan

As a developer I like to mess with everything. Currently we are doing an infrastructure migration and I had to do a lot of non-development stuff to make it happen.

Honesly I find it really usefull (but not necessary) to have some understanding of the underying processes of the code I’m working with.

Yeah

From my experience, killing a process from task manager does free up any file locks held by the process. However, I wouldn’t consider it being graceful, any in-app cleanup is lost this way.

However, you can save encrypted ssh, gpg keys and save that encryption key in the OS keyring.

How is IAs approach much different to that of a regular library?

True, they were digitising physical books and lending copies. But this is not much different from how a regular library works (assuming controlled digital lending, yeah I heard aboud Covid period 😕).

I’m not an expert on American law (know nothing about it), but reading the articles and comments I thing there’s an argument to be made for IA functioning as a library.

Yeah, that. I have no need for mobile syncing, but I believe loqseq provided syncing works via git

I use logseq for work notes and Obsidian for personal. Obsidian is more markdown which I like for my loose notes. logseq, on the other hand, is more focused on productivity and it’s fully opensource. Obsidian is only free for personal use, however their notes being closer to standart markdown means that they could be openned with any text editor and be just as functional.

Syncing between computers is easy – it’s just a git repo. Dealing with mobile is tricier but I never needed it so can’t comment much.

The economic system is broken. It incentivises infinite growth in a finite environment. That’s just not sustainable and will backfire in one way or another.

What we need as a civilization is a shift in economic values that would push for a more sustainable model. That shift can be seen, but, in my (expert /s) opinion, it’s too little and too late to completely avoid a disaster.

Here, found a Kurzgesagt video for you

Where could I follow up on this story?

Or a page that uses only half the screen width in the center. Just use the damn screen!

He also said there’s no war just a special military operation, but here we are.

Which part is gullible?
That current Russian regime won’t stop? It’s not like it would be a first time for them to invade another country.
Or did you mean NATO involvement? Who knows… I’d like to believe that they would involve, but I’m not guaranteed.

WW3, eventually. The regime won’t stop. The ambition is there to rebuild the USSR. That would mean starting a conflict with NATO and, if I’m lucky, NATO will actually involve.

Dunno, it’s fine for me. As a messenging app it moslty gets out of my way and lets me communicate. It has all of the important functionality and creature comforts. Also, it already has some bloat (stories, whatever that crypto payment thing was/is). And the UI / UX is perfectly fine as is.

Although, as a dev myself, I hate UX work, it’s just boring and unfulfilling. I get why UX is often an afterthought. First it has to be functional, anything beyond that is secondary.

It’s cool and all, but this feels more like a toy than a tool. I can make dead simple web site in minutes with current stack. Nothing, but plain static pages.

Heck, if I looked for it, I bet I could set up markdown to HTML converter as this is already a widely used functionality throughout the web.

Yeah, a one to one conversion might not be possible. Although this example also approximates the image by making it two tone and using simple shapes to compose more complex ones.

It still feels as a non-trivial task tho.

This feels a lot like vector graphics. I would imagine one could automate SVG to CSS translation.

2 monitors plus laptop. One is mainly used for IDE and git, other one for anything else that’s relevant: browser, Jira, notes, second editor to reference stuff. Laptop screen is to the side and mainly used for chats.

Wouldn’t mind a third big screen, often notes, DB, RDC or brower have to be juggled around.
