Probably a low quality cable

It’s even allowed to be randomly unplugged while delivering maximum power

Chat GPT can work in perl. It has eaten the entire CPAN so had had a lot of examples

I don’t subscribe to tracking how long something has been worn. I wear the same shorts or jeans for days in summer and months in winter

I judge them on whether they still look and smell good

It’s a pun on ‘sys admin’

If you were assessing a company you would give them your report at the end and leave. It’s their problem to fix it

When you can type at 70wpm you can only do that when you’re copying text or taking dictation, maybe at double speed. Detailed thought doesn’t come at even 20wpm

I learnt to touch type quickly, the only thing I type at that speed now is my passphrases

Lines added, lines deleted

The UX guy is the one I’m agreeing with

Prusa still let’s me sneakernet the print file to it, it’ll do it over the LAN, but USB is faster. I’m the only one who uses it, but I’m pretty sure since they’re focused on user experience it wouldn’t be onerous

M5 needs the printer logged into their server, needs the user authenticated and has no USB slot

No alternate calendar could overcome the inertia of the current one, but that’s worse than most, it breaks the week cycle

What I know of the FOSS angel is that it is perfectly happy with all the FOSS editors

I try to ctrl+x ctrl+c in things that aren’t Emacs. Whichever you choose you eventually learn it well and it seems so easy that it’s hard to see what the advantage of an alternative might be good for

No one can argue against you as you know how to use the tool. Vi and Emacs are both perfectly capable editors, both have been used to make huge amounts of code. Both are great for updating configuration files, both beat the simple editors when it comes to syntex highlighting and encouraging correct updates

Nano is fine for editing, fine for working with configuration files. It only fails when you try to use it as a development editor

And in Emacs ctrl+k means kill the line or selection (adds it to the kill ring) and ctrl+y yanks a value from the kill ring. Meta+y cycles to the next item in the ring. Meta is usually escape, unless you’re using the computer of someone with a key called meta

This comes from being earlier than MS-DOS, so it couldn’t copy someone else’s work (why did it take so long for DOS and windows to come up with the innovation of a copy history. It came after the windows key

Gnome is fine if it works the way you do.

Most old ones - older than vi - are terrible. I have to sometimes use the IBM mainframe editor at work. It is terrible.

Emacs has a menu, it’s not exactly hard. F10 to open the menu in text mode

Not at all, the ledger is public, it’s not tied to names, only IDs but it’s trivially easy to tie a person to a Bitcoin account if they’re under surveillance

If you live in a country that cares about law you might attract attention with a large Bitcoin balance and enough transactions to tie it to you

I agree with them. You might survey for pain points before the change, but once you’ve built something, you’re not asking users for whether it’s perfect
