Work culture in the western world is broken. We face so many issues because when it comes down to it, humans spend most of their time in very cold, disconnected working environments that are designed to break your soul and turn you into a d

No I mean, rather than using Dropbox for dotfiles, use a bare git repo to manage them

Use a git bare repository, it works really well for this purpose.

I went the opposite direction, Ubuntu to arch. I think that archlinuxs advantage is that it's minimalistic, the philosophy is simple, you know what is running on your computer and generally why. Tinkering with arch itself isn't th

God, as an Australian it irritates me so much to continually see Australia screw itself over for short-term gain, rather than long term vision, time and time again. This mentality shows that Australia is not ready to be leaders, or competi

Not sure why this is downvoted. He is absolutely right. Whilst rich people on hacker News get to eat quality produce, most people aren't as fortunate. They are exposed to higher levels of pollution. I mean, the west basically dumps th

All single use plastics should be banned, period. If you want to buy a drink, bring a reusable bottle to the shop and fill it up from a dispensery or use glass bottles. The culture simply needs to change - its a habitual problem, not a tech

When scrolling on Instagram, 1/5 posts is an advertisement. The more you scroll it seems to become more frequent and tend to 1/3 posts. That's a lot of ads.

It really depends on his theology. I'd agree if he succumbed to a prescribed framework of dogma. But for those freethinkers seeking inner truth there are no shortcuts. I think it's invalid to say he casts it in the "too hard

Nearly everything about society today is simply wrong. Disrupt, the time is now!

He should be spending his money on cleaning up the trash and pollution his company produces directly or indirectly and then helping shift to greener ways of life. At this point in time it seems highly unlikely that we can ditch Earth for so

The anonymity that these car sharing services provide is already an issue. In my neighbourhood car2go are the most likely to be recklessly driving and harassing people in the streets. They should be tightening their policy not loosening it.

Same! Got a ThinkPad carbon X1 Gen 3 as a "pilot" for 300 euro, and then when I realised I could easily work with Linux as a daily driver I bought a ThinkPad T480. The Thing is a beast.

Alge based fuels do exactly this. The problem isn't technology, the technology for genetically modifying alge or bacteria to consume CO2 and produce oil has been around for quite some time. The problem is our powerstructures and our ec

Australians don't share the same political will and motivation as the Germans. By large we are a politically apathetic country with no strong leadership or vision for the future. We don't value personal liberties and personal free

Just buy a ThinkPad T480, add 32GB yourself, install Linux and you have the perfect development machine. Unless you work with iOS apps specifically , in which cause you can use a build server

Oh please, Apple is a hardware company and that's why their profits don't require the exploitation of user data, otherwise they would be doing it. I mean, they exploit the natural resources of the planet and 3rd world slaves to ma

It's an entertaining article and it's not trying to be deceptive about that fact. Apple should be held to the highest standard, considering they are the world's richest and most successful company. Frankly, Apple disgusts me

Same, seems that us Australians in general love to throw our rights in the trash, along with our political will. The apathy is palpable. No wonder Australias economy is so weak when there is no future vision being sold to us but rather hold

This article teaches little about freelancing as a swdev. Seriously, "use git", "get paid" etc ?

If I was you, I'd return the computer and get a refund , purchase a second hand laptop, 2015 MacBook Air or maybe a ThinkPad and wait for a year or two. Apple have legit gone downhill and your better off with something a little older b

T480s seems like a more balanced machine than the carbon imo. Xps have quality control issues.

Whilst I tend to agree, it's pretty shocking how easy it is to access high fidelity extreme content. I grew up with dialup modems, so accessing this content wasn't particularly easy or quick. Today, 2 clicks and you have children
