Anyone else surprised that the download links are plain HTTP without SSL? I know it's a page that in the past I would have typically not worried about securing - but nowadays it's SSL everything or else your browser yells at you.

Everyone I know who uses Teams does not like it. Is that selection bias based on my personal network of technically savvy peers and professionals, or is it founded in a broader experience? More importantly, does Microsoft really believe th

Caddy is great! But am I the only one who gets frustrated seeing breaking changes in a minor version release? I know semver isn't "the one true way", but it sure does solve a problem for me. I've had too many applicati

You can click the button labeled "Support Pop" on this page. https://pop.system76.com/ The only option is $12/year last I checked. It'd be nice if we could donate a larger amount easily.

I think there's something to be said for the fact that the engineering organization grew through this exercise - experimenting with using telemetry data in new ways that, when presented to other devs in the org, likely helped them to a

Sublime performance can't be beat, but I'm seeing the end of the road for active plugin development. It's getting harder and harder to adopt new tools without farting around with configs all day. At least, this was my experi
