fernandogrd··on I tried every todo app and ended up with a .txt file
I follow something similar automated as:

  function todo

      vim "$HOME/<todo-directory>/"(date --date=$argv --iso-8601)

  end
So I can do.:

    $ todo          # opens the today file

    $ todo tomorrow #opens tomorrows file

    $ todo '<anything --date command accepts>'

This remind me of this framework's blog post: https://frame.work/blog/in-defense-of-dumb-tvs

I wish they made themselves dumb tvs, it seems to be a good fit for their business.

fernandogrd··on Framework Laptop with Ubuntu Review
I'm surprised by comments about how it didn't work ok for some people. It worked almost flawless for me, maybe because I chose Fedora 35?

Things I did:

- Enabled fractional scaling to use it at 150%

- Changed suspend from s2idle to deep, archwiki mentions that: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Framework_Laptop

One small thing I loved about the laptop was how I was able to (albeit slowly) charge it with a pixel 3 charger.

fernandogrd··on Ask HN: Are my expectations on code quality and professionalism too high?
If the business don't see the value of those things, you're more likely to convince them if you can prove how those things can actually save/make money.

Some pointed out things like retrospective on outages, but there are other things, like how testing could reduce the number of bugs, thus, reducing context switching and debugging times.

You could even tight it directly to money by measuring what a bug cost and make a experiment in a team showing testing reducing that cost over time.

Could receiving coronavirus aid make peoples lives harder if they try to apply for a green card in the future? Like it seems it is if one makes use of medicaid or other public benefits.

fernandogrd··on Docker + Autoenv: Super magic automated development environment
Yes, that makes sense. And besides it is not a problem in a development environment, it would be better to just share the container file.

But I can't find another way to share containers between host restarts (there is also -volumes-from option for sharing volumes between containers)
