Maybe look into Epicureanism. In particular, before you read wikipedia or stanford's encyclopedia, I'd recommend this letter[1] written by Epicurus himself.

If only someone warned us about shit like this... Some guy was jabbering about it all the time but I don't remember his name. I think he wrote a text editor or something...

Yes, but unfortunately I can't stomach how bad Thunderbird and Lightning look.

Thanks, I had some HiDPI trouble when I tried it previously but apparently I misconfigured some fonts so it works now. Pretty close to what I'm looking for. It's a shame that it hasn't seen that much work.

I did but I think the setup for gmail didn't work very well and I just gave up.

Try to install freetype 2.7. It's a bit of a hassle(you need to get the source rpm from fedora 26 and build it), but will improve text rendering a lot.

> Tried Okular?

Not yet, but I might. I'm trying to stay on the GTK/Gnome side of things.

Re: the email client, I'm no longer an emacs user unfortunately :)

I'm using Fedora again as my desktop after some years on OS X. Things that I'd like to see:

* A better email app. Currently none can be said to work very well. I'm actually considering mutt at this point

* A better Gnome Calendar. I think this is coming in the next release.

* A PDF viewer that supports highlighting.

With the latest freetype (https://www.freetype.org/freetype2/docs/subpixel-hinting.htm...), and hinting off, there's not a lot to complain about.

Another reading of this paragraph is that it's essentially douchebaggery.

I actually like React, but be aware people were saying the same shit about Angular until relatively recently. The hype cycle is real.

X - What you know

Y - Technology du jour

Docker runs pretty slow on macOS so you'll be paying a pretty high price for cleanliness.

27" 5k is the way to go

people whose bikes get stolen need new ones

Thanks

Re: the C extensions: Since the performance is so much better, would it make sense to replace gems that use c extensions with pure ruby implementations? Would that still yield better performance than MRI?

I like the language but this amount of hype can only backfire.

I'd recommend a classical treatment of presocratic philosophy. I'm watching the Heraclitus episode and he completely misrepresents him. The sparseness of fragments that remain make it very easy to read into them what you like, and that is exactly what happens here.

Philosophies absolutely deal in absolutes. See for example -- Hegel.

Six years of Ruby and Rails experience. Unless you're doing something crazy, I probably have significant experience with your stack. And if you are doing something crazy, then I'd really like to talk to you.

Jeez, was about to buy it but it's about 90. What's the deal with this pricing?

Thank's for the reply, I didn't know about Tony Smith.

What is "minimalist" about this book?

What? Monoprix is your regular supermarket.

The original meaning of hacker is closer to the guy tinkering. Now it's everyone who works at a startup.

He also worked on the Xbox One S and is pretty much the most interesting product designer around now. Microsoft should have kept him.

Why are you speaking so little?

I remember reading this some time after reading "Notes on the Synthesis of Form". He's absolutely right.

Feodra is great
