If I sign up for a service but don't explicitly opt in to getting their newsletter, any marketing emails I get are spam, and flagged accordingly. The whole idea that I've implicitly opted in without being asked is nonsense.

I'd love someone to do a split ortholinear keyboard on a laptop. That'd probably push it to instant buy for me almost regardless of the rest of the specs etc.

We've had some success with recording meetings and using automated transcriptions, though we don't have any fresh out of college juniors now.

We use 1Password, which supports one time password generation, and you can use shared vaults to share credentials.

Ooh you are going to be so mad when you find out people use to talk about so something other than the purple vegetable...

A fair number of the hashicorp tools use ember already, including Nomad, Vault and Boundary. I think Boundary is newer, so they're likely still using it for new projects, though both Consul and Waypoint aren't using it based on th

We use Nomad at $JOB and it's been great. We're a small startup with one senior site reliability engineer doing pretty much all the infra work and I (~CTO) chip in when I can be useful, though when we adopted Nomad it was just me

> for engineers focus on quality, timeliness and skill. So put that in the resume. Say how you delivered it better, faster or cheaper than the next candidate in the pile would have.

A bank I used until about 2018 (no idea if they've fixed this yet - I left) had an exactly 6 character password, and when you used telephone banking it just needed the 6 digits that corresponded to that word. Those 6 numbers also worke

Others have given the much better answer, which is to leave and get a better job somewhere else but I saw the company is based in the UK so I wanted to mention the UK deemed employment rules which changed last year. In short, the company ma

To solve the redundancy problem I wonder if running something like Hashicorp's Nomad on a few raspberry pis split across some friends houses could work nicely. Each site gets hosted at multiple houses for redundancy but no one person n

My car is also push start and I have to hold the fob in front of the start button for a short while before turning on the car if the fob battery is out.

I'm an Android user which has had Dvorak phone keyboards for years and I've used them since I switched to Dvorak on the desktop. I'm sure there's not the same benefit, but I can touch type on my phone pretty well, and I

I feel like I have to be missing something here. If the law is upheld why wouldn't sites just not allow access to their content in Texas? Stick the same front banner up that alcohol or porn sites have where you have to confirm you&#x27

I realise this isn't for everyone, but if you're changing sim often enough those sim card proddy tools fit nicely on keyrings. I fly from Canada to the UK roughly once a year to visit family and haven't felt like it's ta

No you're not. A fairy high proportion of the poplulation can afford the small luxury of $10 to take a company laptop to a coffeeshop and buy an overpriced drink. When we're talking about who the police are fighting crime for, ric

Match is useful, but for anyone trying to solve the problem of accessing a given machine from different networks check out Tailscale. It's one of the closest things to magic that I've found in recent years and just works. I used t

I'd love a split, ortholinear, semi-ergonomic keyboard for a laptop but know it'll never happen on a mass-market device. The framework has the best change of making it possible because they couldd just sell that keyboard to those

I never got much into mobile gaming, but have recently been having a lot of fun playing PC or console games on my phone (using a controller) with streaming services. I've played with both Geforce Now and Xbox Game Pass and (at home on

I'm not the person you replied to but I do use the spam button for any unwanted emails I get. If it's a receipt or a shipping notification then no worries, thanks for letting me know but if you think me signing up for your service

What for? Hey where the author got the idea from? The author doesn't use it. Fastmail? The author's method works with any mail service that supports custom domains and email aliases. Seems a stretch to call it an ad when it's

Another example of this is Dan Abramov's post from 2018 about things he doesn't know - https://overreacted.io/things-i-dont-know-as-of-2018/ As a very well known figure in the React community, the creator of

I'm not the person you asked, but I switched from Kindle to Kobo when I realised I could get ebooks from my library on a Kobo. Now pretty much everything I read is from the library and I've not turned on my Kindle in well over a y

When I moved to Toronto I found a local roleplaying group and if possible that crowd has an even bigger set of people lacking certain social skills. Despite that, I met most of my friendship group in Toronto through the people I met at that
