Same here. I gave up on Protonmail, even after getting my family to switch to it. Ultimately the lack of good email searching was a dealbreaker. Fastmail has been great, especially with a custom domain and masked emails (the 1Password integration that auto creates them is great when it works).
Seems that Protonmail has made some improvements for the searching but people are still complaining. Oddly enough I'm also using Mullvad but I couldn't be bothered to get it via Tailscale as I share my subscription with my dad.

Props for making such a beautiful and useful website! I was surprised to see how well it works on both mobile and desktop. What did you use for the search feature at the top?

If you don't mind me asking, what visa are you on? H1-Bs are limited to 6 years so I'm guessing another temporary visa.

Another alternative is yobai (+ skhd) https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai
I switched to it after having some issues with rectangle sending some of my windows into the abyss (way outside of the screen) which forced me to kill the app and restart it to get it back. But if Rectangle works for you that's good too, it's probably easier to configure.

Magit is another popular alternative for emacs https://magit.vc
I wonder if anyone has gone from lazygit to magit or the other way around. As someone who uses emacs for my day to day dev work I can't see myself changing.

It's not only about new hires. You will have to figure out things about code that you wrote 3/6/12 months ago.

Can you opt out of the course if you manage to enter a valid tar command on your first try?

I thought these would be jokes!

Steam (the video game distribution platform) does "recent reviews" and "all reviews" so that you can tell if there has been a recent influx of positive or negative reviews.

When coding, some programmers mix functional and imperative. Others prefer not to: they believe in the separation of Church and state.

By "a competitor" you mean Google?

Your comment made me think of the adage: "Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live"
