This feels like propaganda for billionaires. Millionaires are closer to homelessness than they are to billionaires

A cool idea would be if it had an accompanying android/ios app that would turn your phone screen into a screen for this pocket computer. Then the foldable keyboard would make sense and you don't need to hunt for a monitor to be able to use it.

Let's do a bit of math. 1400 in 5 years is 280 per year. 280 divided by 52 weeks is 5.38 5.38 divided by 7 days is 0.77

So in an average work week of 7 days ambulance is called more than 5 times. On any given day there was 77% chance of an ambulance getting called. That shows an absurdly high percentage of calling an ambulance. But keep in mind a lot of minor injuries don't result in ambulance calls.

Hey I'm the author of this blog post. Definitely not GPT-generated, when I was exploring direnv, it was at the same time as I was exploring nix, so the two seemed adjacent in my mind. Admittedly, I should have phrased it better and not confused myself and anyone who read the blog post. What I tried to convey in the blog post was that, trying to setup isolated environments with Nix and automated env switching with direnv, requires investing time in learning about those tools. Devbox abstracts the Nix part and `devbox generate direnv` abstracts the direnv part.

The website reminds me of Prezi the presentation tool that had fancier transitions than powerpoint.

It's great! I really like it. I would buy the pro subscription if it was a bit cheaper. 19.99 CAD/month seems a bit too much (at least for me).

Growing up in a country with internet censorship, I can tell it is a huge slippery slope not to mention the dangers of having to upload government ID to access adult websites. I hope politicians come to their senses on this.

That's optimistic thinking. I don't believe that will happen even if people realize that it is possible. Because tracking is not detrimental enough to user experience that people move off of existing platforms.

It seems like you're in full agreement with the article.

A very stoic approach to life. But it's also comforting.
