warnhardcode | 2 years ago | on: Toyota to invest $1.3B in Kentucky factory to build battery packs and new EV

Another Kentuckian in tech here. Thanks for the list. A friend recently attended https://13layers.com/event/lextalktechjan24/ and said it was a good mix of talks. I think they're quarterly and it's on my list to follow up.

I also lurk on these slacks: bluegrass-dev.slack (same folks as the meetup I assume), Louisville Tech louisville.slack, and startuplexington.slack

Hope we keep this ball rolling a bit longer on meetups and gatherings both in person and online.

Deadlines stress me out and I dread impending failures, and I have a very broad definition of failure. I would definitely feel harried. Am I being limited by worries? Are you having some misses in targets here and there but you're trucking right along, or are you really good at meeting what sounds like many many targets?

I like this browser and usually have it set as my default on my phone. I like that I can set links to open in private mode by default quite a bit.

My wishlist: 1. collections syncing to my Firefox account and desktop Firefox 2. a menu option to move a page from private mode to normal mode where I'm logged into things; right now I copy/paste the url 3. (sadly) an easy way to open the current page in Chrome.

The biggest issue I've run into is some app sign-in flows that roll through the browser or webview break when using Firefox private by default. I switch Chrome to the default temporarily to work around this.

I have only the vague understanding that there are governance structures in place for open source projects. Can you go into a little detail about what aspects of this project's governance impress you?

warnhardcode | 11 years ago | on: Mosh – a robust, responsive replacement for SSH

Mosh and screen/tmux serve different roles. Mosh keeps your connection and reconnects across all sorts of events that would break your ssh connection. (laptop sleeps, different networks). Then screen/tmux manages the sessions on the other side of that connection.

Maybe I don't understand everything screen can do, which is very possible.

I've been nearsighted for a long time and wear glasses. Recently I developed presbyopia, and now cellphone screens look blurry unless I remove my glasses. Most of the time my vision with glasses is fine, until I want to look at my phone. A screen that looked sharp to my ancient eyes with my glasses would be wonderful. First world solutions!

warnhardcode | 12 years ago | on: Why not kill -9 a process?

Heh I went to try it and sure enough it was in the manpage but didn't work on the commandline because.....manpage was for /bin/kill but from the commandline I was using the builtin kill. WOW!

  % kill -L
  kill: unknown signal: SIGV
  kill: type kill -l for a list of signals

  % which kill
  kill: shell built-in command

  % /bin/kill -L
   1 HUP      2 INT      3 QUIT     4 ILL      5 TRAP     6 ABRT     7 BUS
   8 FPE      9 KILL    10 USR1    11 SEGV    12 USR2    13 PIPE    14 ALRM
  15 TERM    16 STKFLT  17 CHLD    18 CONT    19 STOP    20 TSTP    21 TTIN
