I moved away from Hugo because I was tired of it breaking backwards compatibility. I found that upgrading my Hugo version meant that old static website projects wouldn’t compile, and needed amendments. I keep an older…
In terms of features, they are the same.
Where I live, any taxes are built-in to the sticker retail price. In a shorter term crisis, I can absolutely imagine smaller grocery stores near me using a cashbox for takings and recording purchases with a pen and…
Just because it wouldn’t help with a long-term crisis, there’s no need to overlook the benefit for a short-term crisis. Especially as the latter is far more likely.

Which sounds like a soft subject on the periphery. There’s still a massive disadvantage if you want a technical role and you think the Internet, Web and Wifi are all the same thing.
…so xenophobic that they voted for both a Liberal Democrat MP and Mayor?
The ECHR says you must give prisoners the vote. Successive UK governments chose to ignore that part. So don’t be so sure about “can’t” versus “won’t”.
I managed to sell my battered old 32-bit Thinkpad on eBay last year. I couldn’t put Trixie on it, but Bookworm installed fine.
> used M2 MacBook Air And what if you are a developer and need to replace a well specced Mac and don’t have serious budget, especially considering recent memory and storage price increases? Rather than a coffee table…
So discard a working and perfectly good Macbook to be replaced by a new one manufactured by the World’s #1 CO2 emitter and transported probably halfway around the world in a container ship burning dirty bunker fuel.
I went through similar feelings switching to the Mac ecosystem (from Linux) in 2012... But I quickly settled on some tools I wouldn't be without now. Finder is terrible, but I switched for Forklift early on. I think…
Well, you could say Melinda got a big promotion for a while.

I was going to make the same point. In no way do I endorse Rupert Lowe or the Restore party. But referring to that blog post as “hideously racist” is exactly why new victims will be made today, and new victims will be…
I think you are correct. It trivialises true evil with silly superficial comparisons. Popular with those who love to shout the word "Fascist" but have no idea what it historically meant.
I clean my Apple mobile stuff daily with 70% Isopropyl Alcohol. A 1L bottle is pretty cheap and it lasts a long time. I just spray it on a cloth and wipe with that. I use a glassware/window type Microfiber that I got…
…the difference being that someone like Cummings at the time didn’t have the heft of the Establishment behind him. Anyone can “call” for anything, doesn’t mean it’s going to happen. The examples I gave were of real…
There were plenty of calls for a confirmatory vote (aka "Peoples' Vote", as if people didn't vote the first time) after the Brexit result in 2016. If Remain had won 52% to 48%, you can bet that no second confirmatory…
Isn’t it odd that there are only suggestions for followup confirmatory votes when the pro-EU camp don’t get their way, never the other way around.
You’re welcome… There are things I will probably miss from Cursor, as they used to iterate on DX goodies quite quickly. For frontend tasks, I liked the idea of Cursor Browser being able to do a devtools-like selection…
I recently cancelled Cursor. The features you mention are in Antigravity IDE v1, which I am trying as I still have a Gemini subscription. No idea how long it will be around for, as Google Antigravity2 (more like Claude…
Sure thing. I really meant that my Oracle Cloud account is protected by my YubiKey, and when I provision an instance I set a strong, pre-hashed password for the local account in the CloudInit configuration. If I ever…
By MFA I meant the Yubikey plugged in to my home office Mac; I don’t do sysadmin on the bus. But I take your point… I try to make sure I print out recovery codes when offered, and keep them hidden in a safe place at…
I meant in real practical terms, not higher concepts. I am fine with not having a private island or a network of influential friends, but I am really really glad I’m not defecating in the street.
