Thanks, I will keep that in mind for future work.

Nope, I don't like to be bored with trivial activities, so curate several ways to make them interesting. :)

On this day nine years ago, we switched to the pull-request model for development: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2015/03/03/curl-embracing-github-more/

@bagder I must appreciate the way you have been dealing with this project and we are having the benefit of hard-toiled work yours and others.

Kudos.

But ..but .... subtracting should be the norm. Although, the inclination to opt for something "modern and flashy" is upheaval.

My 2 cents, Daniel.

Whatever the claim was/is , if you ever run on bare metal the battery life is max 2.5-3 hrs .

I mean working full-fledgedly and with full brightness. And no idle time .

PS: I have been running Linux on laptops exclusively since 2006 and tweaked various parameters

Today I got to tell my students that in the bad old days we used to write scripts that just SSHed into every machine and ran sed on config files but today we had puppet and I regret to inform you that based on their facial expressions we apparently still write scripts that just SSH into every machine and run sed on config files

Flying east just after the clocks go back means the sun is starting to set at around 2PM my time and I am not ok with this

Extremely confused by people who see WSL as an attempt to compete with Linux and not an attempt to prevent developers moving to macos

Good news! My eyes are recovering and it sounds like oral steroids should prevent any recurrence. Also my retina specialist wants to see me again due to it being "an interesting case", so well done me.

unixbhaskar,
@unixbhaskar@mastodon.social avatar

@mjg59 How much does the retina specialist cost per visit??

Well, it sounds gross and it is gross, but I can't resist asking ...probably the poverty of mine or the abnormal cost of the medical process.

What does Daniel look like when he's engaged in explaining to an audience? Like this. From myconf May 2023.

@withoutclass That is i3bar and that is a part of I3 Window Manager...on the right bunch of plain old Bash script producing output on the bar. Minimal and useful. :)

unixbhaskar,
@unixbhaskar@mastodon.social avatar

@withoutclass I have no frigging clue what the heck Hyperland is and importantly, i have been stuck with I3 window Manager for the past 7 years exclusively. I haven't had the time to experiment with flashy stuff which I never bother to use. Because I3 proved to be good enough for my trivial workflow.

As I mentioned, I have written some rudimentary bash script to echo out the output on the I3 bar ...not sure that the stuff mentioned can bind with time-proven and tested stuff it.
