Weird take, credit card debt is much more of a risk to that demographic than debit cards ever will be

It's annoying that smart plugs/bulbs etc use wifi when Powerline exists

I don't understand why powered IoT devices (lightbulbs, switches etc) don't use powerline for network access.

No BS here. The _average_ house price in Auckland is 1 million dollars. How long does it take to save a 20% deposit on 150k in a HCOL country? And 150k is generally a senior level wage, no one in NZ is starting on 150k

Why's it difficult for techies to accept a lower quality of life (when it's completely unnecessary)?

I think I've commented before on this but I've had great success using VSCode Remote Containers. Essentially using the M1 as a frontend to an x86 environment. Works great and I can move between a local and cloud servers depending

I get this on my M1 Air, maybe once or twice a week. I use a Magic trackpad, and when it occurs the built-in trackpad still works fine. To fix it I disable Bluetooth on the M1, then re-enable and everything is fine again. This lead me to be

We did both, customer got an iso image with a single line install command. The installer would automatically download all the docker containers and lock the system down. Since this was the customer’s initial impression (and we wanted the I

It's funny you mention WAF because that's exactly what kept me away from 1password. I loved almost everything about 1P but their reluctance to authenticate with keychain means it's a PITA for me, and an absolute deal breaker

Exactly! When it comes to home media I prefer the Linux model of small utilities connected by pipes.

Maybe I'm way off base from what you're asking, but would a Raspberry Pi with an amplifier hat solve this? I _think_ Rpi supports HDMI-CEC, but then again I've never seen CEC working properly outside of the fantasy realm

But it's such a great litmus test to instantly identify the people that don't know what the hell they're talking about ;)

I recommend "The Introvert's Edge". The premise is to break down sales into a process, measure then iterate. For me it removed a lot of the sleazyness feeling I had associated with selling.

You make a convincing argument, how can we conscionably blame these people for wanting to feather their nest, considering the pittance the public pays them? Now replace politicians with police, and corporate interests with criminal interest

And the way you're doing it sounds like you avoid the docker mount slowdown issue. Sounds like quite a good solution

Yeah I dusted off an old licence I had for resilio sync and use that to sync with my local machine. You can get around this by running git clone inside your container as part of the startup process. But 1. It can add quite a delay to starti

I've been considering writing one myself, admittedly it's not an easy road at first, and a step by step guide would've helped a lot.

I do this except the Linux is on a separate box and the dev envs are docker containers. Decided to spend my money on decent, upgradeable hardware instead of shelling out 5k for another MB Pro. My next MacBook will probably be the most low-e

You forgot to mention the elephant murder [1]. At best, they're a company with extremely questionable ethics. It's entirely understandable that HN wouldn't question one more example of shady practices from godaddy. https:&#x
