  1. If github, take a look at gh cli or git credential manager:

  2. You could set up a custom domain if you don't have one already and forward the email for $8/yr. https://cloudflareapps.com/apps/email-forwarding
  3. I canceled my account recently for the same reason. The two day or same day shipping would never happen even though on the product it was advertised as such.
  4. I’m interested to see how project finch works out compared to Docker on a Mac. It’s an open source client for container development.

    When I tried Rancher Desktop it didn’t work so well.

  5. Reminds me of Derek Sivers how he keeps all his writing in plain text, always, everywhere. https://sive.rs/plaintext

    Edit: Apparently he posted this on HN 8 months ago: https://www.hackerneue.com/item?id=30521545

  6. Being able to time shift video instruction content made all the difference in the world for me. I could rewind and watch something multiple times until it clicked. Helped me significantly with college mathematics.
  7. Thanks for sharing! Love these other options!
  8. Nice, do you have anything you can share?
  9. Using Unix 3rd Edition by Peter Kuo because it helps in understanding basic Unix principles and tools.
  10. I migrated a company from k8s to ECS/Fargate in 2019. Kubernetes is very flexible, but I opted for simplicity.

    The result of the migration was that there is little underlying infrastructure to maintain, and ongoing operational costs were lowered by 50% year over year. The CTO and I liked the setup so much, we started converting another large client of theirs. I followed up with them at the beginning of 2022 to see how things were going, and they still love it. There is so little maintenance, and now they have more time to focus on what they do best–Software!

    Other options on the horizon that I'm testing include utilizing AWS Copilot with ECS/Fargate, and/or Copilot with Amazon App Runner.

  11. I'd be interested in hearing if Cloudflare uses a managed Kafka service like MSK, Confluent, or Aiven. Also would be nice to hear the history and more pain-points in getting Kafka to scale to where they are at now.

  13. Google voice does this for free (aside from what Google normally does with your data). Could forward voicemail there.
  14. Smaller attack surface internally, for sure. I also assume internal networks are hostile, not just from internal threats, but from external lateral movement.
  15. Yep, or turn it into a script and use an IDE/Vim/etc and test in the terminal.

  19. Brave browser does it for free by “Enable background audio” in settings. It blocks ads by default too.
  20. I had rsi as well, so bad I couldn't shake anyone's hand. I thought my wrist was broken. What fixed it for me was to drop the keyboard down onto my lap using a laptop desk, or "lapdesk." I believe my pain was from resting my wrists or forearms on the desk or chair armrests...So I also removed the chair armrests. Also, removing the distance from keyboard to mouse by utilizing a tablet keyboard w/o a numeric keypad. Using the i3 window manager in Linux was great, and I need to do better at using vimium in the browser to reduce mouse usage. It took me forever to find the lapdesk thing out, and there is research behind the ergonomics: http://ergo.human.cornell.edu/ergoguide.html

    http://ergo.human.cornell.edu/AHTutorials/typingposture.html

    In my opionion, it's worth a good read-through.

  21. Another data point referenced in InfoSec circles is the "Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report"

  22. Perhaps if you negotiated, you could have gotten substantially more?

  24. I've found that most places offer the same content in an RSS feed as their newsletter. I prefer the terminal newsboat RSS reader running in Docker. : https://newsboat.org/ https://github.com/newsboat/newsboat ...and lynx is also in the container for browsing.
