I would not take a job that required me to use Windows.

I would begrudgingly accept a Mac, but my preference is Linux.

The majority of people 'just work here'. Having equity is not the norm.

Until very recently we were exclusively deploying on-prem and had been for over 20 years. The amount of tooling we had to write ourselves to get even a semblance of modern devops practices is insane. Absolutely no one supports the deployment methods and requirements we have, so it was either hacking existing things to do what we want, or writing our own stuff.

My team maintains our own Terraform providers, Ansible playbooks, bare metal management infra, CLI tooling, network automation, ITSM integration, on-prem Kubernetes running on metal in our own DCs, on-prem CI/CD, on-prem Gitlab, evolving IDP, etc.

SaaS, what SaaS?

Guess this requires a Shuttle account, so that's a no from me.

What's your first and second choices?

"We and our 89 partners store and access information on your device for personalised ads and content."

Hah, no.

Syncthing is so good. I wish more people would use it. Onboarding is certainly more complex than just using Onedrive or installing Dropbox, but once it's set up it just stays out of the way and works.

Plenty of arguing with my parents to let me leave the computer on overnight to finish compiling KDE 3 on a Pentium 4.

Fedora. I use Linux for work and have kids, don't have the luxury to tinker as much as I used to.

A comment I could have written word for word.

Not hyperbole to say that Gentoo set the course of my life. I don't use it anymore, but I'll never forget my time with it.

Long may it continue.

My 2015 MBP could do two external monitors.

It's why I rebind ctrl to caps lock on all my devices.

Then you go back to your other devices and get it wrong there instead.

No OP, but UK keyboard layout on Apple devices sucks, seperately from overriding decades of muscle memory reaching for cmd instead of ctrl. Could never get used to UI/workflow. No native window snapping (back in the day at least). Workarounds required for a lot of my tooling, no native containers, until recently no native VM solution (believe UTM solves this). Brew.

As a disclaimer I do think Linux with Gnome provides the absolute best developer experience so you can take all my opinions with that in hand.

Wine, thus Proton, is not an emulator.

That's on him. I'm not giving the Daily Mail page impressions to read this.

The part of my town where I grew up was built on the grounds of a WWII ordnance factory. Used to walk past an old pillbox daily on the way to school.

Blocking Quora alone makes it worth the price of entry.

More abstraction.

What happens when you need to debug this?

Risky move making a joke on HN.

Also easier to scale out from your single starter k3s node as you grow.

It isn't getting worse, people are just running up against its limitations more often.

Perhaps not exactly 'community distro', but Fedora is genuinely a joy to use.

Still trying to find an upgrade to my HP Gen8 Microserver (with the Xeon). This still isn't it.

I don't have a Mac.

So it's either have a Mac or don't run locally if you want to use this service?

Why is it necessary to sign up for two external services if this is running the LLM locally?
