Now I follow. Thanks for the clear and patient reply!

On HN, copy/paste is usually a safe bet (with a few exceptions): https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

If you mean in general, Wikipedia sums it up pretty well: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_case

> I'd be more concerned about how gas is feedstock for pharma, and fertiliser.

Would you elaborate on what you mean by this? I don't follow.

Workspace Matrix to organize virtual desktops in a grid. https://github.com/mzur/gnome-shell-wsmatrix

gTile for tiling window manager type functionality https://github.com/gTile/gTile

Vitals for quick view of system monitoring information https://github.com/corecoding/Vitals

Extension Manager via Flatpak for managing extensions https://github.com/mjakeman/extension-manager

Even unintentionally ingesting the pollen of a lilly can cause fatal kidney failure within 24 hours.

> Just ship ZFS or BTRFS please.

ZFS has been an installer option since 20.04 and it's been working great for me.

So why didn't you?

If you mean the public, I'd expect a lot of people, if it were presented right, considering how often the cost of energy comes up in political discussion

If you mean congress, I think the more important questions are - who would lobby for it? - who would lobby against it?

There is an example in the "Objects vs Enums" section of the Enum docs, at the bottom of the page: https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/enums.html#obje...

There aren't many. Enums[0] are probably the most common.

This more or less describes a lot of how I view software industry Twitter.

Tweet threads on topics like this are rarely deep and thoughtfully considered, and when they are, an article or blog post would always be a better format.

You can even take it a step further and have a push to origin update your backup as well.

It's always great to see candid comments like these from the people involved. I appreciate you all and I know I'm not alone.

Here's the Google cache until the server regains it's bearings:

What are some alternatives you (or others) would suggest to Jira?

I don't mean that to come across snarky at all; I'm honestly curious what people are using and enjoy.

Ha, that's neet. I particularly like the "Probable Mood" addition.

That's a really interesting link; thanks.

> the reason VSCode is as good as it is now is because it's has had increasing parts of it being re-written in C or C++

Is that true? I've heard that said before but I've also heard that's not true. I haven't been able to find anything indicating any parts of it are written in C/C++ either. The GitHub repo for VScode doesn't have any C in it; infact it doesn't have much but JS/TS:

For a work machine my advice is to make sure the tools you depend on work well on 18.04. Docker for example didn't have a stable version in their repos until June 22nd. Other tools like MySQL Workbench and the Redis equivalent (who's name escapes me) do not have 18.04 compatible versions.

Otherwise, Kubuntu 18.04 has been very stable for me for several months.

I posted this further down the thread but may as well say it here too.

Cyberduck[1] was what I moved to after the FileZilla installer on Sourceforge forced me to wipe & reinstall Windows a few years back. It's available for MacOS and Windows, GPL3 licensed[2] and worked great for me at the time. I've since moved to Linux so I haven't been able to play around with any of the newer features/versions but it would be the first thing I tried if I switched back today. Definitely recommend taking a look.

WinSCP seems to be a popular recommendation. When I was a Windows user after the FileZilla/Sourceforge incident I switched to Cyberduck[1]. I really enjoyed it at the time and it seems it's gained many more features since.

Haha, I appreciate your typo in my username. When I created this account a little over two years ago I mistakenly dropped the "l" and didn't realize for a few months (having only copied it from a pw manager.) By that point what was done was done. Years later it makes me a bit happy to think people may actually be reading it as it was intended.

>According to all the documents published so far, the NSA does none of these except monitoring public social media posts.

From the first paragraph of the article linked here:

>The U.S. National Security Agency collected 534 million records of phone calls and text messages of Americans last year, more than triple gathered in 2016, a U.S. intelligence agency report released on Friday said.

If I remember correctly, the author of this site hangs around here and last time the site came up he had mentioned there used to be a free API but it had to be taken down because of constant abuse by scammers.

Its also possible I'm thinking of another similar site, if that's the case I apologise.

Not the parent but every time this question gets asked here it usually gets a few responses along the lines of "the more specific the topic the better the content/community generally is" and I'd agree. A few I enjoy are r/homelab, r/programming, r/Economics, r/networking, r/AskHistorians, and r/ColorizedHistory.

Wasn't it "hunter2"? The search turns up 16,092 hits so if I am mistaken I'm not the only one.

I'm honestly not sure why your getting downvoted. Maybe the "takes money to make money" line? Otherwise that seems like reasonable advice. If you can't max out your IRA every year then that's just how it is but it's certainly a good idea to contribute what you can. Right? Could someone shed some light if I'm missing something?

To me, it's interesting because it appears to be a somewhat novel approach to both fundraising and marketing a moonshot company.

Perhaps I'm wrong in thinking this is novel though; it's possible people just like when Boring co. makes a marketing push.
