I buy FLAC from digital stores pretty regularly and my favorites are (obligatory) Bandcamp, 7digital, HDTracks, and TIDAL. I also end up buying physical cd's pretty often and just ripping them to FLAC (this is actually…
I recently discovered Coder's open source version of their web-based IDE (https://github.com/codercom/code-server). It's pretty much VS Code in the browser, which is almost exactly what I was looking for. You just…

YouTube does actually have video categories that the uploader selects, although historically it has led to people mis-categorizing their videos on purpose. For example, before gaming was a category that was embraced by…
At work I have two external monitors attached to my 13" MBP, and I almost exclusively use the laptop screen. I also use the trackpad and keyboard attached to the laptop, which is probably the reason I use the laptop's…
