I've probably been reading too much lately about FOSS developers not being able to find help maintaining packages. But yeah, it's not a helpful comment.

Why a new lib instead of using or contributing to an existing one as spdlog? https://github.com/gabime/spdlog

Eric Prydz show Holo is, to me, like an Amiga demo but using gigantic holographic projectors. Updated graphics and sound but same vibes.

$4k / ($your-total-cost * 3). Assuming 3 years of ownership. Tools are not only a laptop but the idea, I believe, is valid.

Money in the pocket. If you trust the company you assume that the stock will recover the value eventually.

I had an Amiga 500, I love the computer very much. The problem with these projects is that you end up with a keyboard at an angle that is not ergonomic at all.

Like, for example an OS, hardware even electricity! But if you give things for granted, why not docker or APISIX?

Using what metric? Taking into account externalities? Taking into account the price of the car, maintenance and insurance?

In many HN publications the label "In USA" is applicable, the equivalent of "In mice" for many medical studies :)

We no longer ask candidates to write code. Instead we give them code to review and plenty of time. After that we do a meeting to discuss the changes. Works quite well for us.

ExternalProject_Add -> vcpkg or Conan. I have more experience with vcpkg and the steps are: 1) declare your dependencies in a vcpkg.json file (similar to npm's package.json). Example: { ... "dependencies": [ "

With the exception of CMake evolution (now days a defacto standard), package managers (as Conan or vcpkg) or the support for new C++ standards in major compilers (clang, gcc, Visual) ;)

And you can use multipass in the M1 to generate, for example, ARM64 docker images that you can run in a Graviton CPU. Win Win :)

Unless you have an external display, keyboard, and mouse. I have my laptop always connected to a screen (34'') unless I need mobility (a meeting room, a plane). A desktop cannot be turned into a mobile solution ;)

We used to buy Precision 5500 series laptops (latest model: 5560), but they have issues with thermal management. Over time, the battery expands due to temperature to the point of moving the trackpad up. Now we are giving Dell a new chance u

Smaller note: Barcelona can be decomposed in three Catalan words (a happy accident): Bar, Cel, Ona, meaning Bar (yeah, this one is easy), Sky and Wave. Being a mediterranean city, fits quite well :)

Windows is crap, Linux is crap, macOS is crap... the crap frat in action. Maybe I'm too pragmatic, maybe OSs are difficult and engineers working on them deserve some credit. Maybe...

And irrelevant to the conversation unless managers are better protected for cognitive loss (I doubt it) or managers requires less cognitive load (I doubt that too, but you can make a joke about that :)
