This is a software development business, which is a positively bananas trade no matter what’s getting written. And the smaller the business, the more hats network guys wear. We work with everything from the server app down to the coffee machine fueling the devs. And 100% uptime isn’t the most crazy demand I’ve heard. I’m sure Chujo is busier than a one-armed paper hanger with jock itch.

At least he’s got money to throw at his hosting company. Scaling up would have been much slower in the old days.

IEC C13 socket with C14 locking plugs. Already ubiquitous in data center facilities. Rated for voltages between 110 and 250, so it works for any country’s common household current.

Tools you’re not sure you’ll need. Harbor Freight tools are super cheap and flimsy, but may be the right choice if you’re not using them often.

If you find yourself using a cheap tool all the time and hating the quality of it, then it’s time to buy something better.

Text-based search apps like protocols like gopher, WAIS, and Usenet.

Two main innovations of the web:

  • lightweight yet easily understood data transfer protocol, HTTP
  • language blending graphical elements with traditional text, HTML

Science exists to figure out what really, actually does work. Smart people were still figuring that out at the turn of the last century.

Most smart people have figured it out now. Dumb people are still not testing their ideas.

This is the biggest waste of words next to a “Trump-said” article.

Laptop makers once put pop-out mice on laptops. They were horrible. Toting a wired mouse around was a pain in the ass too. There’s a reason touchpads took over. It doesn’t mean people don’t know how to work a computer.

Tbh most of the time I’m using my Wintendo, but Linux is better imo for dev. PyCharm is a nice IDE, and all the Linux tools I love like vim are there and fully functional.
