My setup for this is my phone with a B.O.W folding keyboard and chrome remote desktop. I don't have any of the I/O but I can access my main setup from anywhere and don't need to lug around another device that does what my phone can already do.

Second this. I believe the real benefit comes from being able to exercise the extensors instead of the flexors, which helps with remedying an imbalance in tendon strength that leads to tendonitis.

Replace them with robots too, problem solved.

Pretty sure they could have used the "set image base" option under the memory map view to accomplish the same thing, but it's still a cool workaround nonetheless.

Fees high, world too stable, heavy speculation. Cryptos forced to trade on centralized exchanges to avoid fees, making it a much crappier version of something like PayPal. Doesn't help that there's an unending supply of people more than willing to participate in ponzi schemes creating massive volatility and turning the "currency" into the commodity.

How does this stack up against Nog [0]? I currently use it for my i3 needs and its very clean and works better than anything else I've tried.

There's also H for opening a previous history entry or switching to a different tab you have open. This is a big one for me (along with the Auto-Discard extension) since it lets me keep a very large number of tabs open and not have to iterate through every open tab when I want to find something I opened previously again.

I've been finding zsh to feel extremely bloated lately and killing my workflow. Mainly because I use oh-my-zsh with several additional plugins, and also because I use guake with at least 10 terminal tabs open at any time. Zsh has some strange refresh issue when SIGWINCH is called to switch back to the guake window that results in more cpu usage when switching back in the longer zsh is open for. Has anyone experienced something similar?

You can use the magic command `! ` in IPython to write shell commands with support for f-strings i.e. ``` arg = "test" out = ! echo {arg} ```

Side channels like timing during different tests is one possibility. You can also reverse the operating system to understand more about how it may be handling interrupts or unique hardware. Then there's also dumping any onboard firmware memory to learn about the boot process. With some creativity, there's loads of ways to infer functionality of the processor/system enough to develop over it.

Not to snipe this post or anything, but you can get a Xilinx zynq 7000/7010 on Aliexpress for ~$20 right now (likely old bitcoin mining boards being tossed).

It's more the fact that these languages force certain best practices using their compiler. While python can be great when used in best practice, its level of freedom make it easy for the user to get away with obvious mistakes. It's great to have freedom like that when you're writing small projects, but a large project could lead to unintended effects that cause more damaging issues than the time lost using a stricter language.

I use emacs because the elisp system makes it easy to add custom workflows or functionality. I'm not sure if the same is true for vscode, but from my past experiences with vscode users they tend to do very little modification of any kind and just accept what's given to them. The IDE is the most used tool for a developer, so being unable or uninterested in personalizing that tool can be a heavy loss in productivity over your time as a developer.

What VR headset are you using? I've considered switching to a VR monitor setup but I feel that the quality of existing headsets is too low to compete against an actual monitor and having a screen with text that close to the eyes for several hours will accelerate the accumulation of eye damage most developers already receive.
