Is that POST in the readme sending the password in the query params? Is this shorthand or literally adding them to the params?
I don't really feel the need for a curl replacement. In the past I've used httpie which is pretty slick but I end up falling back to writing tests in python using requests library.
Maybe I'm not the target audience here, but I should still say something nice I guess. It's nice that it's written in Rust, and open source tooling is in need of fresh projects ever since everyone started bunkering up against the AI monolith scraping all their work. We should celebrate this kind of project, I just wish I had a use for it.
I don't understand this attitude. It's clearly more conducive to solving problems to be able to move around our environment more quickly. It's extremely useful (compared to a beginner who only knows insert and write quit) to understand the different vim modalities as well as a few commands to jump around a file or to perform regex or to call an external command.
When you're not proficient with the necessary tools, you're interrupting your flow with what you consider mundane. That you consider text editors mundane is more reason to move as much of that process into muscle memory as possible, not less!
Why are we pretending like mastery of our tools is unimportant? I hear this sort of opinion most eagerly expressed by engineers who in fact are quite handy with vim! Is this some new kind of flex where we're all pretending to take a purely academic approach to programming instead of becoming proficient with the tools of our trade?
He mentions building habits in part 2 of the article, using the boiling the frog analogy (imploring the reader to use it for good instead).
My question, though, is how does a good habit expand into a great habit, without motivation? For your tooth example, once you start flossing you might as well floss all your teeth. The upfront cost of getting started with the floss is the worst part of it, but once you're there it's easy. This isn't true for all habits though. For many it's easy to just bail out fast. If I started doing 5 push-ups a day will I eventually do 100 and then 1000? Or would I settle somewhere on a mediocre range because it's easy to stop? Is there some sort of recursion or positive feedback loop that kicks in that rescues me from mediocrity if all I have is discipline and not motivation?
One problem with DEI is that many ethnicities get thrown under the white or white-adjacent umbrella and aren't given the same opportunities simply because the popular view of history doesn't seem them as historically oppressed when in fact they were. For instance, Armenians are a historically oppressed group, even genocided, yet they are not afforded any DEI perks in their career paths. Palestinians are also not included in DEI because it isn't politically expedient to side with them, even though they have lost their homeland and are generally treated like dogs. Many, many such groups exist but because they don't come up during AP US History, they have no mindshare.
Another is that DEI seems to simultaneously accept that race is a social construct while also using race as a key criterion for purposes of inclusion, which is absurd. For example, a Black Swede, growing up in Sweden her whole life, would be considered a candidate that improves diversity in the workplace. However, I'm not aware of Swedes being an oppressed people. In fact, growing up in Sweden your life is probably better than in America. The judgment is made purely on skin color and lineage.
Lastly, I also want to say that I know this is an ugly situation, because high paying jobs are often about connections, which have a strong correlation with ethnic background in the United States. In that view, it makes sense to have something like DEI shine a light on power structures within the workplace and make them more fair. So despite the above, I support DEI if it helps underprivileged people. After all racism still exists, and it's virulent. Many people harbor racist views and will lie through their teeth in order not to be canceled.
I just hope eventually racism is extinguished so we could move forward to a purely merit-based system.
How many nodes (droplets) do you spin up that you need Terraform? I do something similar but I use a single script to spin up the Digital Ocean side and then I complete the setup in Ansible (with an all-in-one master script, since the DO droplets are fetched with a handmade inventory plugin).
Dell lost my confidence when their XPS 15 display couldn't display a pane of gray without flickering. I switched to a Macbook Pro and haven't looked back.
For me (personally) to consider Dell again, they would have to replicate everything that Framework does and ship Linux with support.
Edit: can I also add that they suck for business too? The slim form factor has NO place in business, slimming down the chassis and removing ports is an anti-pattern. I couldn't give a shit how thin my work laptop looks, my job doesn't involve taking pictures of unrealistically minimalistic office desks. With Dell you either get a dainty oversized netbook or a rugged behemoth (which is a little too rugged unless you're in telecom and roll in a van). Where's the middle ground? Nothing needed to change from the old thinkpad.
I'd imagine a healthier version of something like: "Simpletons, relying on consumerism for their dopamine rush, they're no different from ants! Meanwhile I am a /creator/ of things!"
I agree, but I think most people model others in their head quite crudely so whenever someone breaks outside of their box of expectations, that someone is no longer serving the same role in the relationship, and risks being shunned or replaced. Purely conjecture though.
On the flip side, now closer to an emotionless robot due to such experiences, I find people relying on me for my emotionless roboticism.
Not the whole biomass. Just the mass of CO2 that falls into the category of "collects in your house when the windows are all closed". I'm not going to argue that it's a small number nor that it's easy to take care of a large array of plants. It's just that everything else short of using plants seems like a simple offloading of CO2 elsewhere (e.g. opening windows). I'm not satisfied with such selfish solutions.
You're right that the practical consideration is important. It needs to be addressed and engineered to be made practical.
On top of that maybe we eat too much, but that's a off topic.
What's wrong with having hundreds of plants then? Filtration doesn't get rid of CO2, opening the windows just brings your CO2 levels to whatever it is outside (at best).
Planting more plants is at least a step in the right direction. Everything else is more or less simply turning it into someone else's problem.
Maybe you're right that 20 plants wouldn't be enough help, but growing a plant is a real method of replacing CO2 with O2. Running a box fan with a filter taped on it isn't. That was my point.
If you mean the size of the house, that's wrong. It depends on the number of inhabitants in the home and how often the home is ventilated. Considering plants grow in (lean) mass considerably faster than (adult) humans, the number of plants should be a much smaller number than "hundreds."
