Cockscrew might fit your usecase[1]

I recommend trying out Redragon Horus K261, it took a while to get used to but I like it a lot now. It's a low profile keyb.


You could try participating in Advent of SQL[0]! It's a bit rough around the edges but fun nonetheless. [0] - https://adventofsql.com/


I think it just auto opens a container according to the URL. So if url == 'amazon.com' then switch container of tab to shopping.


Nice site! Only pet peeve is that I wish I could revisit/save a specific set or maybe open the HN comments on a new page?


How do you define "learning linux" though? Just learning vim and general unix tools?


I think that would be a great foray, yes. If you understand how to poke around the filesystem (cd, ls), manipulate the filesystem (cp, mv, rm, mkdir), how to search (find, grep), and how to edit and save a file (vi/vim {yes there are a plethora of linux text editors, vi is ubiquitous, which is the only reason I learned it}) you’re in really great shape.

The best part is, you can learn this subset of tools in a day, a week at worst.


There is nothing linux-specific in this list, you describe learning UNIX and could do it on any *BSD, including macOS. I would agree that knowing you way around unix is very helpful, having some specific linux knowledge is worth very little if your job does not consist of managing linux machines. And even then you will require a lot of distro-specific knowledge.


My youtube recommendations on my laptop are just short videos(all are below 3 mins with a few exceptions ;-;) I get so much better recommendations by using youtube tv but it sucks that they don't let us switch preferences. But well results in me spending less time on youtube so a win heh


This is the first time I'm seeing a comment section that uses ssh for submitting comments which is pretty cool! I think it'll be a nice addition for any blog (along with a moderation system probably)


What is your alternative to foobar2k on linux ;-;


I use Audacious since it has a nice Qt interface and comes standard with my distro, but yes, the closest thing to foobar2000 in Linux would be DeadBeef.


foobar2k works really well in wine. Alternatively deadbeef is quite similar to foobar but without the media library functionality.


deadbeef looks good!


xmms and qmms are Winamp-like players for Linux.


foobar2000

I use it daily, runs great through WINE.


While I agree that getting good sleep is necessary, I think the book does tend to over exaggerate the negatives. Alexey Guzey's article on this[1] is excellent and I recommend everyone to give it a read.

Also worth checking out his retrospective a couple of years later: https://guzey.com/2022-lessons/#get-minimum-possible-sustain...

I'm not sure whether he's gone back on any of the specific criticisms he made, but his overall attitude towards sleep certainly seems different to before.
