Maybe I'm being silly, but I felt a strange existential dread watching the video. I asked myself: who is being marketed toward? In my head, it's Apple lovers that want to larp as car people, and having the money to waste on such a

Modern CSS makes me long for Hi5 to make a comback. My profile would be killer.

I'd end up with something like this if I ever had the time. Instead of a corporate wiki, though, I'd probably use something like sphinx to compile PDF files, and store them on the public workspace.

Is this a recent addition? I recall attempting to do this some years ago, failing, and putting the tool out of my mind as a result. Maybe I was doing something wrong.

I have a love/hate relationship with diagrams, and diagrams-as-code-things (plantuml, mermaid, etc). As a programmer, I find myself trying to turn everything in to a software project: everything must be version control-able. Same with

I hope this happens. I can only dream of the day when my country gets something like this.

Yes, panic is a large part of the problem. I think I recall the feeling once, when my dad was teaching me to swim around 4 or 5. I think I tried to stand up, and just sunk, then I tried to pull myself up, and grasped at water. I figure at t

The description makes me think this can reproduce a cool workflow demonstration I saw a few years ago on reddit[1]. [1]: https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/k1eu0n/durden_wor...

That's interesting. I've been using git every day for about 8 years, I've never found myself in a situation where I couldn't fix something I broke. But maybe that time will come.

I think this is the first time I've seen someone say they outright hate git. Why?

Also, there's snapdrop[1] that does almost the same thing, for free, without the need to install anything. It'd probably be wiser that snapdrop were a native application; then it's dev would not need to pay to host the client

I say this as a software developer using Emacs daily as my IDE: emacs is not an IDE -- at least not OOTB. It can become a competent IDE, but that isn't what it's built for. Instead, I think of Emacs as an overengineered elisp RE

Any change you open sourced those parsers? I also switched from GnuCash to ledger-cli a long time ago, so I'm interested to see your solution.

I really wish there was a way to annotate youtube videos easily. Kind of like hypothesis[1], but for video/streaming content. [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87h0nYi-i9o edit: turns out there is something already:

This seems seriously cool. I wonder if its constant recording is going to fill up my HDD. edit: found the storage option. It defaults to keeping all data, but I've changed that to one month retention -- they say they use around 14GB

That's interesting. So, if I understand this thread at all, your projects may help me to "preserve" my "wealth", with ledger?

Anybody care to define "wealth management" as opposed to run-of-the-mill personal accounting? Why would I use this instead of ledger[1], for example? - [1]: https://ledger-cli.org/doc/ledger3.html

> it always get extremely messy I have found having my own, personal, task management system was the foil for this. It is extra overhead, but at least I always have a system that works for me, even if everyone else is mired in chaos.

It always amazes me that these large companies insist on reinventing the wheel.

I still stubbornly hope that one of these silicone valley boys will "invent" USENET, and package it up nicely for the masses. That'd be cool.

I would say because of how it must be installed, and that it is probably not common knowledge. In my country, it is not unheard of, but I hadn't heard of it until my electrician mentioned seeing one on a car he worked on recently. I as

I decided that I'd track my time on any project that I work on, and put those projects into categories that I want to be represented in my CV. Whenever I generate a resume, I'll aggregate the time spent on those projects, by categ
