ACLs are super simple and work well, just dig into them. I use groups as rbac (one group per role), and share parts of my network with friends/family (game servers), and colleagues (work collab stuff, such as live coding).

Toggling users on/off also works great, and disabled users don't count towards the limit.

My sub agent has been looping for almost 10 years at this point and has so far written 0 lines of code. Definitely won't be investing in another...

I am currently working through https://lukwol.github.io/gleam-guide/ and it's fun so far as a ReasonML/Elm/elixir enjoyer

I had a high end spec gaming laptop with 0 airflow back in the 2000s, and used to raid dorm LAN party freezers for frozen meat + towel = heatsink.

I was lucky that iteration 1 (sans towel) didn't ruin the laptop...

Check your home folder permissions on macos, last time I checked mine were world readable (until I changed them). I was very surprised by it, and only noticed when adding an new user account for my wife.

I also switched, but to https://asahi-alarm.org/ (the arch variant) with Sway, right after Software Update ignored my choice to NOT upgrade to Slophoe.

I've used https://yet-another-react-lightbox.com/ in anger and it's great, very extensible too.

WSL is great. Its biggest drawback is that it requires the use of Windows.

Same for me originally (years past) CLI git, then magit and more recently lazygit. Identical workflows across all 3 tools, with only progressively fewer keystrokes.

As a magit lover, LazyGit is a fine replacement that works even better in some cases, but falls just short overall. Still very usable both inside and outside neovim.

The contractors were probably dubious of that resiliency given their lack of experience. I recently ran fibre in my house and have to say I was pleasantly surprised that fiber patch cables (unarmored) can survive a good pull through a duct.

Websites that are walled off behind obscure captcha don't do well in Karakeep for sure, but so far for me those are usually e-commerce sites or sites I don't return to anyway.

Regarding wanting to preserve the current version of a page: I use Karakeep to archive those pages. I am sure there are other similar solutions such as downloading an offline version, but this works well for me.

I do this mostly for blog posts etc I might not get around to reading for weeks or months from now, and don't want them to disappear in the meantime.

Everything else is either a pinned tab (<5) or a bookmark (themselves shared when necessary on e.g a Slack canvas so the whole team has easy access, not just me).

While browsing the rest of my tabs are transient and don't really grow. I even mostly use private browsing for research, and only bookmark (or otherwise save) pages I deem to be of high quality. I might have a private window with multiple tabs for a given task, but it is quickly reduced to the minimum necessary pages and the the whole private window is thrown away once the initial source material gathering is done. This lets me turn off address bar search engines and instead search only saved history and bookmarks.

I often see colleagues with the same many browser windows of many tabs each open struggling to find what they need, and ponder their methods.

Sure, but we program using programming languages, mostly using the Latin alphabet you are referring to. And yes the syntax for many of those programming languages is in fact case sensitive.
