Love the idea of Race with "infinite" panes, but very soon it gets too much for my brain to handle. Prefer much more structured multiplexer.

Great stuff! Does it have a Session/Workspace concept? Maybe we can learn from how Alacritty does it integrating with tmux?

State-wide railway system is definitely something only Fed can help on, I don't think even as big as Meta/Google can do much with them.

What's the Americans obsession with checks? I worked and lived in other countries , including Asia, Europe and Latin America. Most of them moved on to digital payment (especially China) where I found the US and Canada still heavily relied on a piece of paper to process a large amount of funds with no security.

In US, I realized even buying groceries they accept checks written at the counter.

Why can't the US just move on from checks?

So what about your company's IT? I am sure they want to push every updates to you as soon as it is released.

One of my previous companies use their self-hosted Gitea. That's all good and stuff, but they don't have a dedicated DevOps person, so we actually have to spend extra maintenance on it.

Moreover, we were going through SOC-2 auditing at that time and it is much easier to just store our source code in one of the SaaS option like Github/GitLab/Bitbucket for our auditors to check without having me to screenshot everything for them.

Jiang and Hu both stepped down after 2 terms. So yes they agreed to it.

I don't even know why would anyone "dream" or "think" they have a chance to do business with CCP after what happened in what they did to Alibaba, etc.

I realize all of their social media accounts disappear as well - FB, Instagram, YouTube, etc. Honestly I feel so bad for their employees and most HK people.

I am a football guy. Anyone said we tolerate UEFA/FIFA's corrupted system is because ESL is not any better. ESL lacks of a real relegation/promotion system with other teams, and that's a huge blow to European's traditions of "competitiveness" and "dream" about having a small team going all the way to the top tier competition and even beat them. (Check out the year when Leicester won the English Premier League)

The ESL is simple a closed system, similar to what NBA in US in that there is not relegation/promotion from other lower division leagues, and that means they only play against themselves. Poorly performed team do not need to worry about getting relegated, hence there's really no competition there. And that kills the sporting spirit and the fundamental value behind sports.

Do we believe in UEFA/FIFA? Hell no, but we do believe in football pyramid system and ESL just don't have it. ESL is not the solution to the current problem in European football. It also creates a barrier to not let smaller teams to be part of the competition.

I have been looking for a keyboard, but fails to find one. - ergonomics - wireless (bluetooth or a tiny USB dongle is OK) - mechanical keys - mac cmd-key - below $200 USD

I am not sure why it is so difficult to find one like that :-(
