Keep reading. The piece is satire.

A killer starting place for me would be FreeBSD builds to support FreeNAS.

I am glad that it is useful for you. It bugs me though that Twitter is trying to force everyone to use their service the same way. I want to use Twitter more like an RSS reader to catch interesting news stories and blog posts. The fact that they are actively discouraging using their platform like this is infuriating.

The one that kills me is "In case you missed it". I read my twitter chronologically, and removing tweets from that order in order to show them closer to the top (and therefore later) is the exact opposite of what I want.

(Diehard vim keybinding user, but editor/IDE nomad) For an expert, I'm not sure that there is anything that st3 has that cannot be achieved by the other two with a combination of plugins and customization.

The biggest difference I have seen is reasonable defaults for a new user. I have lots of friends and coworkers who use Sublime because dropping into vim/emacs is like entering an alternate dimension. They expect to click around and edit text similar like any other program on the computer (which vim lacks) and have a sensible menu system (which emacs lacks). Sublime uses standard system keybindings, so that e.g on a mac Cmd-S saves the current file like you would expect. This is possible to do on both vim/emacs, but not the default. It is really difficult to convince a brand new user that the first step they need to take is opening some random hidden file and customizing their entire editor in a custom configuration language just to get the system default behavior.

My biggest complaint is that albums I have added will occasionally be split, with one or two songs becoming the versions from a “best of” album, leaving two separate albums in my library. This randomly happens to 2-3 albums a month, and my only notification that anything changed is that some random album, often a compilation, shows up in my collection, or I am listening to the album and the songs do not a show up and are skipped.

It is absolutely infuriating that it fails at even keeping track of the songs you have added to your library. That should be one of the most basic features possible.

I wish this were true, but the amount of fake news spread by trusted news networks, such as newspapers spreading Russian propaganda bots, implies that education isn't sufficient. If a professional cannot discriminate between truth and lies on twitter how can an average person?

I’ve been using the wirecutter’s recommended mask for a while and it has been great. It has that same cupped shape that you describe.

I use a combination of blackout shades, Philips hue lights, and the Sleep cycle app on my phone. It starts the lights very dim and red at the beginning of a 20 minute wake up window, slowly brightens them, and then rings the alarm whenever I start rolling over. It is a little complicated, but it has worked well for a few years now.

From what I understand, the only people that are charged access to the service are large organizations that want callbacks when new data that matches their users is entered. This seems like a very reasonable balance between making money to pay for hosting related fees, and providing a free and publicly available service.

I believe it is an appeal to nature rather than a naturalistic fallacy.

I have kept that setting for the last 3 years, but with iOS 11 it has been causing frame drops and glitchy-ness with the new iPad control center and multitasking setup.

I regularly have issues with gboard where it won't accept the first 5-10 keypresses when I open it. It's especially bad within Google's own apps.

Also, you have to design for performance. There are plenty of ways to architect code that lock you out from future optimizations. I agree that small optimizations such as different referencing techniques should be measured, but you should be able try both out, and "premature optimization is evil" often keeps you from optimizing ever.
